Bowman (knee) will not play Sunday against the Ravens, Seth Walder of the New York Daily News reports.

Bowman returned from a one-week absence Monday night against the Cardinals, but appears to have suffered a setback during Wednesday's practice. Only Kellen Davis and Brandon Bostick will be available at tight end for the Jets.

Pruitt (knee) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Pruitt hasn't practiced since suffering a knee injury in Week 5, so he'll remain sidelined for Sunday's game in Philadelphia. That absence will leave the Vikings with one less tight end option behind Kyle Rudolph and Rhett Ellison.

Allen (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Tennessee, Fox59's Mike Chappell reports.

This is a mere formality, as Allen hasn't practiced since suffering the injury and is considered week-to-week. His absence could stretch beyond Sunday, potentially giving Jack Doyle an extended audition as the top tight end.

Graham (knee/hip) didn't take the practice field Thursday, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

In conjunction with the downgrade from all drills Wednesday to none Thursday, Graham has picked up a hip injury for his troubles. The absence may merely be a precaution in order to preserve the veteran tight end's health, but the status of the Seahawks' second-leading receiver will be monitored closely as the weekend draws closer.

Pruitt (knee) was a non-participant at Wednesday's practice.

Pruitt suffered the knee injury in Week 5 prior to the Vikings' bye week. His absence from practice does not bode well for his status heading into Week 7, but his status will have to be monitored throughout the week.

Kelce caught just three passes on three targets for 32 yards in Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Alex Smith attempted just 22 passes on the day, as the Chiefs focused heavily on the ground game Sunday. Kelce's production suffered as a result, despite facing a weak Raiders pass defense. Still, Kelce is one of the centerpieces of Kansas City's passing attack and should have another opportunity at a good week against the Saints in Week 7.

Coffman was signed by the Colts on Tuesday, Kevin Bowen of Colts.com reports.

Coffman was with the Colts for training camp and the preseason, but he failed to land a spot on the final roster. With top TE Dwayne Allen (ankle) considered week-to-week and likely to miss at least one game, Coffman will provide depth behind Jack Doyle and Erik Swoope.

Hooper was held without a target in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks.

Hooper has only seen more than one target in one game this season, so he hasn't been able to get in much of a rhythm in the offense. He'll look to bounce back Week 7 against the Chargers.

Westbrook was signed to the Bucs' practice squad Monday, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

The former Florida Gator and reserve tight end spent time on the Bucs practice squad last season and was elevated to the active roster in Week 17. With four tight ends currently on the active roster and the fact that he's a converted defensive lineman, Westbrook shapes up as an ongoing developmental project.

Donnell caught six of seven targets for 34 yards against the Ravens Sunday.

He was part of Ben McAdoo's dink-and-dunk attack but made a mental error, going out of bounds to stop the clock before getting a first down, forcing the Giants into a 4th-and-1. Still, he's the team's starting tight end for now.
