Tinsley played 10 offensive snaps without getting targeted in Sunday's loss to the Packers.

Meanwhile, erstwhile competition Andrei Iosivas played 58 snaps, though he was limited to five yards on one catch. With Mike Gesicki (pectoral) injured, perhaps more targets will be forthcoming to the Bengals' tertiary wideouts.

Iosivas recorded just one reception for five yards on four targets in Sunday's 27-18 loss to the Packers. three incompletions all coming on catchable balls.

Iosivas' output was disappointing, considering that the other three targets he didn't reel in appeared to be catchable balls. So far, the Bengals have resisted turning to Mitchell Tinsley or Jermaine Burton to replace Iosivas as their No. 3 wideout behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Iosivas hasn't played fewer than 35 snaps in any of the Bengals' six games to date, whereas Tinsley was limited to 10 offensive snaps against the Packers, and Burton has been a healthy inactive for every contest.

Smith reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Smith was elevated to the active roster ahead of the team's 13-11 loss to the Broncos on Sunday, failing to record any stats while playing 12 snaps with the special-teams unit. With fellow wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) expected to miss a couple weeks, it's possible that Smith could be elevated again for New York's matchup with the Panthers in Week 7.

McCarthy (ankle) participated in practice Monday first time since suffering a right high-ankle sprain Sept. 14, Andrew Krammer of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

While head coach Kevin O'Connell has not named a starting quarterback for Sunday's game against the Eagles, he previously said McCarthy would need a full week of practice in order to gain clearance to play. Meanwhile Carson Wentz was also able to practice Monday, despite nursing a sore non-throwing shoulder. If McCarthy is able to practice without major limitations all week, he could return to the starting job.

Jennings was moved to New England's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Jennings was elevated to the Patriots' active roster for this past Sunday's game against New Orleans and logged seven snaps, all of which came on special teams. With Antonio Gibson (knee) on IR, Jennings could get elevated again in Week 7, though the Patriots elected to give just two running backs (TreVeyon Henderson and Rhamondre Stevenson) carries against the Saints.

Hines reverted to the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Hines was elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 29-27 win over the Dolphins, playing just one offensive snap in the contest. Additionally, the running back compiled 97 yards on three kickoff returns, playing five snaps with the special-teams unit. With Omarion Hampton (ankle) on injured reserve, Hines will likely be elevated again prior to the team's Week 7 matchup with the Colts.

Ferguson wasn't targeted and played 17 snaps on offense during Sunday's 17-3 victory against the Ravens.

While Ferguson was unable to secure any targets on offense, he did take the field for just over 30 percent of the Rams' snaps on offense, a season high. Colby Parkinson (concussion) may return for Week 7 against the Jaguars in London, and with Tyler Higbee establishing himself as the top tight end in the pecking order once again, Ferguson, Parkinson and Davis Allen will share the backup tight-end duties as they've been doing for the majority of the season thus far.

Adbullah reverted to Indianapolis' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Adullah was elevated for the second straight week for this past Sunday's win over Arizona and logged three snaps on offense, rushing once for seven yards and catching his lone target for nine yards. He also played 10 snaps on special teams. Though Abdullah is back on the Colts' practice squad for now, he could be elevated again in Week 7 versus the Chargers if Tyler Goodson (groin) remains sidelined.

Bishop (lower body) is questionable to return to Monday night's contest in Atlanta, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

Bishop is dealing with some lower-body cramping, which has forced him to head to the locker room. The safety had recorded four total tackles (one solo) prior to exiting the game, and in his absence, Sam Franklin will operate in a more significant role in Buffalo's secondary.

Palmer (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Falcons, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.

Palmer was injured early in the second quarter after being tackled awkwardly. He was able to jog on the sideline after being evaluated, but he ultimately won't return after logging two catches for 60 yards. The Bills will head into their bye following Monday's contest, so it's possible Palmer isn't forced to miss any additional time.
