Bryant sustained a high-ankle sprain in Sunday's loss to the Ravens, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

Coach Kevin Stefanski said Monday that Bryant will be re-evaluated in "a couple weeks" following his diagnosis. The 23-year-old racked up a season-high 50 yards on three receptions against Baltimore. He'll be able to recover during the Browns' Week 13 bye, but it's not yet clear whether he'll be available for the team's Week 14 matchup against the Ravens on Dec. 12.

Jaguars head coach Urban Meyer said Monday that Arnold (knee) will be placed on injured reserve, Mark Long of the Associated Press reports.

Arnold sustained a sprained MCL in Sunday's loss to the Falcons and is facing an estimated recovery timetable of 4-to-6 weeks. He'll be forced to miss at least three games due to the injury, and the 26-year-old could be sidelined for the remainder of the season if he fails to meet the short end of the recovery timeline. James O'Shaughnessy is in line to serve as the Jaguars' top tight end while Arnold is sidelined, while Chris Manhertz should also see additional work.

Hill (foot) has been dealing with a plantar fascia injury, Jeff Duncan of The Athletic reports.

Hill has been active for each of the last two games but hasn't made an appearance behind starter Trevor Siemian. He was available as an "emergency backup" during Thursday's 31-6 loss to the Bills, and it's not yet clear whether Hill will be available as a gadget option in Thursday's Week 13 matchup against the Cowboys.

Firkser recorded one reception on one target for seven yards in Sunday's 36-13 loss to the Patriots.

Firkser was on the field for 26 offensive snaps (41 percent), but he failed to remain involved in the Titans' offense. One week after seeing seven targets in the absence of Geoff Swaim, Firkser recorded only one target for the fourth time in his last seven contests.

Granson hauled in both of his targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 38-31 loss to the Buccaneers.

Granson hasn't been targeted more than twice in any of his first 12 appearances of the season, but he's recorded at least one catch in each of the last five games. During that time, the 23-year-old has secured six of seven targets for 72 yards.

Smith, who was on the field for 34 of a possible 60 snaps in Sunday's 36-13 win over the Titans, caught three of his four targets for 49 yards and ran once for nine yards in the contest, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Meanwhile, fellow tight end Hunter Henry saw action on 41 snaps and caught two of his five targets for 16 yards. In each of his three previous games, Smith recorded two targets, but he was a little more involved in Sunday's game plan, while facing his former team. He continues to profile as a marginal fantasy option in Week 13 fantasy lineups, while working in a timeshare with Henry.

Alie-Cox secured one of two targets for eight yards in Sunday's 38-31 loss to the Buccaneers.

Alie-Cox had recorded double-digit receiving yards in seven of his first nine appearances of the season, but he's been more limited behind Jack Doyle recently. Across his last three appearances, he's hauled in two of five targets for 14 yards.

Henry, who logged 41 of a possible 60 snaps in Sunday's 36-13 win over the Titans, caught two of his five targets for 16 yards in the contest, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Meanwhile, fellow tight end Jonnu Smith saw action on 34 snaps and caught three of his four targets for 49 yards against his former team. Henry's now had back-to-back quiet outings and profiles as a TD-dependent option in Week 13 fantasy lineups, while he faces a tough Bills pass defense on the road this coming Monday night.

Higbee caught one of his five targets for just three yards during Sunday's 36-28 loss to Green Bay.

It's generally been a forgettable season for Higbee, as he's only found the end zone three times and has failed to top 50 receiving yards in nine of 11 games. He is receiving enough looks to remain on the fantasy radar with five targets or more in eight games, including 20 through his past three outings. Still, it's probably best to view the sixth-year tight end as a low-floor, low-ceiling asset moving forward.

Pruitt recorded one reception on two targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 36-13 loss to the Patriots.

Pruitt maintained his role primarily as a blocker among the team's tight-end corps. He was on the field for 27 offensive snaps (43 percent), working behind Geoff Swaim. Pruitt has earned multiple targets in only four games on the campaign.
