Pettigrew (knee) returned to practice Tuesday, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.

The Lions had to decide whether to activate Pettigrew from the PUP list or place him on injured reserve by Tuesday, and they opted for the former. It seems unlikely Pettigrew will be able to play this week with the Lions playing Thursday, but it should not be long before he is able to get on the field. When he does, he will slot in as a reserve tight end behind starter Eric Ebron.

The Jaguars have placed Lewis (calf) on IR.

With Lewis done for the season, the Jaguars' tight end corps moving forward will be led by Julius Thomas, with Ben Koyack and Neal Sterling also in the mix. Lewis' 2016 campaign thus ends with a 20/169/1 stat line over 10 contests.

Allen was not targeted in the passing game in Sunday's win over Tennessee, despite playing 49 snaps on offense.

Allen played more than Jack Doyle (39 snaps), but neither tight end was involved in the passing game as Doyle had just one target. Over the past three weeks, Allen has disappeared in the passing attack, with only six targets and two receptions in that span.

Ertz (hamstring) caught six of 11 targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-15 loss at Seattle.

Ertz was questionable heading into the game, but made an impact in the second quarter, scoring on a four-yard touchdown catch. On that play, Ertz showed great awareness, reaching the ball over the goal line as he was about to get tackled at the one-yard line. He could have had an even bigger game, but his 57-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter was erased due to an illegal formation penalty. His 11 targets led the team. Ertz will take on the Packers next week on Monday Night Football.

Graham caught three of five targets for 46 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-15 win over the Eagles.

Graham's 35-yard touchdown came on a beautiful play between him and Russell Wilson. Outside of the score, Graham was held in check by a strong Eagles' defense. With Wilson looking healthier, Graham could be in store for some big games down the stretch. He'll take on the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay next week.

James caught one of four targets for five yards against the Browns on Sunday.

James' role in the offense has dwindled of late, totaling just 108 receiving yards over his past five games. Don't give in to the temptation of inserting James in Week 11 fantasy lineups against a Colts defense that has allowed the fifth most points to opposing tight ends.

Kelce reeled in seven of nine targets for 108 yards in Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay. He lost five yards on a single rush.

Kelce topped 100 yards receiving for the second time in four weeks thanks to a pair of big plays in the second half. Kelce snagged a 21-yard catch and run over the middle in the third quarter and then went for 44 yards on an out and up in the fourth. The Chief's top target has snagged at least five passes in three of the last four games, but has been limited to just one touchdown in the six games since the bye. Kansas City seems determined to change that and right its offense in the process. Kelce was targeted three times in the red zone on Sunday, one of which was negated by a defensive penalty, and even saw a carry near the goal line. Expect the Chiefs to continue to look to Kelce for answers in the coming weeks.

Supernaw suffered a head injury during Sunday's loss to the Colts and will enter the league's concussion protocol, Jason Wolf of the Tennessean reports.

Supernaw is buried on the Titans' depth chart at tight end, so a potential absence for him would have little to no effect on the team's offensive production. He'll need to pass through the league's protocol before being cleared to play in Week 12 against the Bears.

Ertz (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Ertz is out there if you need him this week and should see his share of looks in the Eagles' Week 11 offense, assuming no setbacks. Over the team's last two games, the tight end has logged 14 catches on 15 targets for 152 yards.

Lewis injured his calf during Sunday's game against the Lions and is considered questionable to return, John Oehser of Jaguars.com reports.

Lewis' potential absence won't have too much of an impact on the Jaguars' aerial attack, while Julius Thomas continues to be the primary option at tight end. Another update regarding Lewis' status should become available upon the release of additional information.
