Likely (foot) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Per Ryan Mink of the Ravens' official site, Likely did work out on a side field again Wednesday, and he continues ramping up as he bounces back from a broken foot he sustained early in training camp. If Likely remains sidelined Sunday against the Browns, Mark Andrews and Charlie Kolar would continue to lead Baltimore's TE corps, with Zaire Mitchell-Paden a candidate to be elevated from the practice squad, as he was Week 1.

Waller (hip) wasn't spotted at Wednesday's practice, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Waller was among the Dolphins' Week 1 inactives, and the tight end's status for Week 2 is uncertain at this stage. If Waller remains sidelined this weekend, Julian Hill and Tanner Conner would once again handle Miami's TE duties.

Farrell and Jake Tonges are in line for increased snaps, beginning Sunday versus the Saints, with starting tight end George Kittle (hamstring) having been placed on IR and out a minimum of four games, Dianna Russini, Vic Tafur and Matt Barrows of The Athletic report.

Farrell played more offensive snaps (44) than Tonges (28) after Kittle's early departure in Week 1. Nonetheless, he finished with just one catch for four yards on his only target, while Tonges brought in all three of his targets for 15 yards and a score. Farrell solidified himself as a blocking specialist with the Jaguars from 2021-24, in which span he totaled just 36 receptions despite suiting up for 66 regular-season games, so while he seems like the favorite to lead the 49ers tight end position in snaps for as long as Kittle is sidelined, the majority of pass-catching work could go Tonges' way.

Tonges and Luke Farrell are in line for more snaps at tight end, beginning Sunday versus the Saints, with George Kittle (hamstring) on IR and set to miss at least four games, Dianna Russini, Vic Tafur and Matt Barrows of The Athletic report.

Tonges stepped up in Kittle's absence Week 1, hauling in all three of his targets for 15 yards and a touchdown during San Francisco's 17-13 win over Seattle. Those marked the first regular-season catches of Tonges' career, but Farrell -- who signed a three-year, $15.75 million deal with the 49ers this offseason -- established himself as a blocking specialist across four years with Jacksonville. Farrell remains the likeliest candidate to lead the tight end position in terms of snaps with Kittle out, but it could be Tonges who inherits the majority of pass-catching reps, putting him on the fantasy radar in deeper formats or those that require multiple tight ends to be started.

Cager was cut from the Commanders' practice squad Wednesday.

The 28-year-old tight end from Georgia inked a deal to return to the Commanders' practice squad after failing to make the initial 53-man roster in late August. However, it now appears Washington has decided to move in another direction. Cager's most recent in-game NFL action came with the Giants in 2023, when he made 11 appearances and caught four of five targets for 36 yards and a touchdown.

Knox caught both of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 41-40 win over the Ravens.

Knox led all Bills tight ends in offensive snaps, but, as expected, it was teammate Dalton Kincaid who played a bigger role in Buffalo's passing attack. Knox wasn't able to get much going, while Kincaid caught all four of his targets for 48 yards and a touchdown. Going forward, the veteran should expect similar usage, capping Knox's overall fantasy value. The 28-year-old should be ignored for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 2 matchup against the Jets.

Gesicki caught one of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns.

Gesicki's quiet start to the season was overshadowed by teammate Noah Fant, as the latter finished the contest with four catches on five targets for 26 yards and a touchdown. The veteran tight end played just 16 of Cincinnati's 52 offensive snaps, behind both Fant (26) and Drew Sample (36). Gesicki should continue to see limited opportunities in the Bengals' passing attack, all but removing him completely from fantasy consideration going forward. The 29-year-old will have his next opportunity to get involved when the Bengals host the Jaguars in Week 2.

Yurosek did not have a carry or target in Monday's win at Chicago but played 10 snaps on offense.

Yurosek begins the season as the No. 3 tight end but will be used almost exclusively in a blocking role. He also got four snaps on special teams.

Oliver had one reception for five yards on his lone target in Monday's win over Chicago.

Oliver is one of the league's better run-blocking tight ends, but he won't get many targets as long as T.J. Hockenson is healthy. He went out for a pass on just seven of his 27 snaps on offense. His only target was at the goal line where he was stopped just short of scoring a touchdown, which shows he can get the occasional touchdown (seven total in last three seasons).

Kmet finished with a 31-yard reception on four targets in Monday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings.

The Bears invested a first-round pick in April's draft in tight end Colston Loveland, but at least for one week, Kmet served as the team's top option at the position. In addition to garnering the start, Kmet out-snapped the rookie by a 60-38 margin and also earned two more targets than Loveland, who finished with two receptions for 12 yards. Loveland had missed time in the spring while recovering from January shoulder surgery, so it's possible that with more practice time, he will usurp Kmet on the depth chart.
