New Orleans reverted Austin to its practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

After being cut last Tuesday, Austin signed to the Saints' practice squad Thursday. He was then elevated for Sunday's win over Tampa Bay and logged two offensive snaps along with five special-teams snaps without recording any stats. Austin has yet to catch a pass through four games this season, so he's unlikely to be a viable fantasy asset for games in which he's active.

Smyth reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Smyth was elevated for the second week in a row, going 1-for-2 on field-goal attempts while making all three of his PATs in Sunday's 24-20 victory over the Buccaneers. The kicker will have a good shot to added to the active roster again in Week 15 versus the Panthers.

Jackson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Jackson played just four snaps (two on offense, two on special teams) during the Raiders' 24-17 loss to the Broncos on Sunday, though he managed to haul in a 25-yard touchdown pass from Kenny Pickett late in the fourth quarter. Week 14 was Jackson's second elevation from the practice squad this season, and he's eligible to be called up to the active roster one more time. That could come as soon as this Sunday against the Eagles if one or both of Dont'e Thornton (concussion) and Alex Bachman (thumb) are not cleared to play.

Trammell reverted to the Jaguars' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Trammell was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 36-19 win over the Colts, failing to compile any stats over five offensive snaps. The wide receiver helped fill in for the absence of Parker Washington (hip) in the contest, finishing behind Jakobi Meyers (53), Brian Thomas (53), Tim Patrick (42) and Dyami Brown (six) in offensive snaps. He was more productive on special teams, recording one punt return for 15 yards over three snaps with the unit. Trammell can be elevated two more times before Jacksonville would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

The Raiders reverted Turner to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Turner was elevated ahead of Sunday's loss to Denver but didn't see any work on offense. He did log four special-teams snaps and got a look as a punt returner, though he called for a fair catch the lone time the ball was kicked his way. Turner can be elevated two more times this season before Las Vegas would need to sign him to the active roster.

Sherfield reverted to Arizona's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Sherfield got his first elevation since joining Arizona in mid-November for Sunday's loss to the Rams and played nine of 62 offensive snaps, fourth most among Cardinals wideouts. He finished with one target (which he didn't catch) and also played 20 snaps on special teams, making two tackles on kick coverage. Sherfield's opportunity came as a result of Marvin Harrison (heel) and Xavier Weaver (hamstring) missing the contest, and Sherfield's likelihood of being elevated again for Week 15 could hinge on the health of those two players.

Grupe reverted to the Colts' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Grupe was elevated to the Colts' active roster for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, during which he connected on both of his field-goal attempts and his lone point-after try. He served as the Colts' starting placekicker ahead of Michael Badgley, and Grupe should have another opportunity to kick this Sunday against the Seahawks.

Davis (ankle) has been deemed questionable to return to Monday's Week 14 matchup against Philadelphia, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

Davis was injured while returning a punt in the first half. He's made only one catch this season but has been working as Los Angeles' top kick and punt returner. Hassan Haskins may be asked to take on return duties Monday if Davis can't return.

Jefferson recorded two catches on four targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 31-29 win over the Browns.

Jefferson was second among the Titans' wide receivers with 48 offensive snaps, with only Elic Ayomanor logging more. He earned four targets for the second consecutive week, though his longest gain went for only 11 yards. Jefferson has now been held to fewer than 20 yards in three consecutive games and has topped 25 receiving yards only twice on the campaign.

Brooks reverted to the Cardinals' practice squad Monday, per the league's transaction log.

Brooks was elevated to the Cardinals' active roster for Sunday's game against the Rams, and he finished with two catches (on three targets) for 32 yards while returning three kickoffs for 66 yards. With Greg Dortch (chest) on injured reserve and both Marvin Harrison (heel) and Xavier Weaver (hamstring) dealing with injuries, Brooks could be elevated from the practice squad for this Sunday's road tilt against the Texans.
