Reiman (ankle) will be placed on injured reserve and will be sidelined for the rest of the 2025 season, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Reiman was carted off the field during the third quarter of the Cardinals' 22-21 loss to the Titans due to an ankle injury, which is severe enough to sideline the 2024 third-rounder for the rest of the regular season. He'll finish the 2025 campaign with three catches (on five targets) for 18 yards through four regular-season games while playing on both offense and special teams. Third-year tight end Elijah Higgins should step into the TE2 role behind Trey McBride for the remainder of the season in Reiman's absence.

Calcaterra (oblique) was considered to be a non-participant on Monday's estimated injury report.

Calcaterra suffered an oblique injury in the first quarter of the team's 21-17 loss to the Broncos in Week 5, ultimately remaining sidelined for the rest of the day. The tight end will have two more chances to participate in some capacity at practice before Thursday's matchup with the Giants.

Morris was signed to the Jaguars' active roster Monday.

Morris will officially join the Jaguars' active roster after he had already exhausted his three elevations from the practice squad. The tight end has played in each of Jacksonville's last three games, failing to record any stats while operating almost exclusively as a special-teams option.

Parkinson is in the league's concussion protocol, but coach Sean McVay said Monday he expects Parkinson to be available to play Sunday against the Ravens, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

With Tyler Higbee (hip) out last Thursday night against the 49ers, Parkinson started the game and played 37 percent of the Rams' offensive snaps. He failed to catch his lone target, which was an end-zone shot from Matthew Stafford. Parkinson has four catches for 11 yards on five targets this season.

Oliver had two receptions for 35 yards, including a 32-yard touchdown, on three targets in Sunday's win over Cleveland in London.

Oliver's touchdown came on a trick play from Cam Akers in the wildcat formation. Oliver has just four receptions and six targets in five games this season. He's almost exclusively a blocking tight end but can get the occasional touchdown (two this season).

Hill caught four of five targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Panthers.

Prior to the Week 5 loss, Hill had caught just two of three targets for 23 yards through Miami's first four games. The Campbell product's increase in usage is likely due to Tyreek Hill (knee) being sidelined for the remainder of the season. Although Hill had his best game of the season, he played behind Darren Waller, who posted a 5-78-1 receiving line Sunday. Expect Hill to continue operating as the Dolphins' No. 2 tight end in the Week 6 matchup against the Chargers.

Coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Bowers (knee) is considered week-to-week, Paul H. Gutierrez of the Raiders' official site reports.

Bowers was unable to play through the PCL injury in Week 5 against the Colts, and it seems the Raiders are finally considering letting their star tight end recover and get close to 100 percent after he played through the injury the first four weeks of the season. Bowers is genuinely looking questionable for Sunday's Week 6 bout with the Titans. If Bowers is unable to play, Michael Mayer (concussion) would likely handle starter-level snaps, as long as Mayer is able to clear the concussion protocol after missing the past two games.

Knox caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Patriots.

Prior to Sunday night's loss, Knox hadn't caught a pass since the Bills' Week 2 win over the Jets. The veteran tight end from Ole Miss has primarily served as a blocker this season, catching six of 10 targets for 54 yards across Buffalo's first five games. He's expected to continue operating behind Dalton Kincaid in the Bills' Week 6 matchup against the Falcons.

Trautman reeled in his lone target for 11 yards in Sunday's 21-17 win over the Eagles.

Trautman had another quiet day Sunday despite playing the most snaps of all Denver tight ends against the Eagles. The veteran played 31 of the Broncos' 74 offensive snaps, slightly ahead of both Evan Engram (30) and Nate Adkins (27). It was Engram, however, that took a step forward in the offense, securing four of six targets for 33 yards and a touchdown. Mainly a blocking specialist, Trautman offers little in the way of fantasy-relevant production on a weekly basis. The 28-year-old should be ignored for fantasy purposes when the Broncos face the Jets in London in Week 6.

Ertz failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Chargers.

Despite Jayden Daniels returning from a knee injury in Week 5, Ertz had his worst game of the season. He was targeted just once and didn't appear to be a part of the Commanders' offensive game plan. Ertz still logged 30 offensive snaps and operated as Washington's No. 1 tight end, playing ahead of John Bates (28 snaps) and Ben Sinnott (17 snaps). With both Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Noah Brown (groin/knee) sidelined Sunday, Ertz was expected to serve as one of the Commanders' primary receiving threats but failed to capitalize. He's likely to operate as Washington's top tight end again in the Week 6 matchup against the Bears.
