Austin Trammell WR | JAC
Austin Trammell: Joins Jags' practice squad
Trammell signed with the Jaguars' practice squad Wednesday.
Trammell was dropped by the Jaguars on Monday, but it now appears the team has had a change of heart. The Rice product has appeared in Jacksonville's last five games, catching three of 10 targets for 46 yards. He played a season-high 34 offensive snaps in the Week 13 win over the Titans, so his role could continue to grow in the Jaguars' offense if he's elevated to the active roster for Sunday's matchup against the Colts.

Dalton Kincaid TE | BUF
Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Remains listed as limited
Coach Sean McDermott said that Kincaid (hamstring/knee) will be limited in Wednesday's walk-through, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
That will mark the third straight limited listing for Kincaid, who last saw game action in Week 10. The tight end thus has two more chances to upgrade his participation level before the Bills assign injury designations ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals. During Kincaid's absence, Dawson Knox and Jackson Hawes have been handling Buffalo's TE duties.

Drake London WR | ATL
Falcons' Drake London: Not practicing Wednesday
London (knee) won't practice Wednesday, Josh Kendall of The Athletic reports.
Per coach Raheem Morris, London remains day-to-day at this stage, with Morris noting Wednesday that "we will check him out. He'll be doing some running on the side." The wideout thus has two more opportunities to practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, but if his PCL issue keeps him sidelined again this weekend, Darnell Mooney and David Sills would be in line to lead the Falcons' Week 14 WR corps, with Dylan Drummond and Deven Thompkins candidates to be elevated from the team's practice squad.

Deshaun Watson QB | CLE
Browns' Deshaun Watson: Takes big step toward return
The Browns designated Watson (Achilles) to return from the reserve/PUP list Wednesday, and he's on track to be limited in his first session, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.
Watson hasn't played this season, as he's been on the PUP list (where he still resides) after re-rupturing his Achilles in January. The veteran QB has been serving as a mentor to rookie QBs Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders, however, and over the past month he's posted videos to his social media that show him being able to drop back on snaps. Those clips were a precursor to his return to drills Wednesday, and Watson now will have a 21-day window to ramp up in practice before Cleveland either has to activate him or rule him out for the rest of the season. While the Browns could activate Watson and subsequently allow him to suit up on game day anytime during that 21-day frame, it seems unlikely that he'll be ready to play this Sunday against Tennessee given his extended absence -- he last played in an NFL game Week 7 of last season.

Jalen McMillan WR | TB
Buccaneers' Jalen McMillan: Returning to practice Wednesday
Tampa Bay is designating McMillan (neck) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
McMillan suffered a severe neck strain along with multiple broken bones in his neck during a preseason game in mid-August. He consequently began the regular season on IR (where he still resides), but he's finally ready to return to practice. Given McMillan's extended absence, it could take some time for him to be ready to play in games, but it appears that he'll be able to contribute before the end of December, barring any setbacks. The Buccaneers' receiving corps has been shorthanded all season, so it'll be a big boon to get McMillan back. In similarly positive news for the team's passing game, veteran wideout Mike Evans (collarbone, IR) also is being designated to return from IR on Wednesday.

Mike Evans WR | SF
Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Designated to return to practice
The Buccaneers are designating Evans (collarbone) to return from IR, and he'll practice Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Evans suffered a broken collarbone during a game against Detroit on Oct. 20, and he was subsequently placed on IR. Just over six weeks later, the veteran wideout has been medically cleared to return to practice. While Evans can now begin to ramp up as a practice participant toward a return to game action, he's far from certain to be activated in time for Sunday's matchup versus the Saints. Still, this is very promising news for Tampa Bay's passing game, which will see WR Jalen McMillan (neck, IR) also return to practice Wednesday, per Rapoport.

Derek Stingley Jr. CB | HOU
Texans' Derek Stingley: Little activity in win
Stingley was not thrown at until the final play of Sunday's win over the Colts, Sam Warren of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Indianapolis quarterback Daniel Jones shied away from Stingley until the Colts' final offensive snap, when the cornerback broke up a pass intended for Michael Pittman. Per Pro Football Weekly, Stingley has been thrown at just three times over the last two games and has allowed a combined 23 receiving yards in the last three contests.

Ameer Speed CB | DAL
Texans' Ameer Speed: Signed to active roster
Speed was signed to the Texans' active roster Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Speed, who was on the team's practice squad, will be on the 53-man roster heading into the Week 14 road game against the Chiefs. He'll provide depth in the secondary, which took hit when starting safety Jaylen Reed (forearm) was removed from Sunday's win over the Colts. The Texans haven't revealed how they plan to replace Reed, but there are several in-house options. Speed, a sixth-round draft pick of New England in 2023, has played mostly on special teams during his time in the NFL and has 10 tackles over three seasons.

Sam Kamara DT | CLE
Browns' Sam Kamara: Signed to active roster
Kamara was signed to the Browns active roster Tuesday.
Kamara, who had been on the team's practice squad, replaces defensive tackle Maliek Collins (quad). The latter was placed on injured reserve Tuesday and will miss the remainder of the season. Kamara is in his fourth season with the Cleveland organization and had a career-high 15 tackles in 2024.

Tyrell Shavers WR | BUF
Bills' Tyrell Shavers: Not targeted against Pittsburgh
Shavers failed to record a single target in Sunday's 26-7 win over the Bills.
Shavers led all Bills wide receivers in offensive snaps, handling a 61 percent snap share Sunday. Despite seeing his highest snap share of the season, the 26-year-old wideout was a complete nonfactor in the Bills passing game against the Steelers. Shavers has not been targeted in the past two contests, all but removing him from fantasy consideration as the season winds down. Shavers will look to get something going in Week 14 when the Bills host the Bengals, but he'll be extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes.
