Pearsall (knee/ankle) will be a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Pearsall returned from his one-game absence in Sunday's 42-38 win over the Bears to lead Niners in receiving with a 5-85-0 line on eight targets across 81 percent of the offensive snaps. He's been battling knee and ankle issues for the vast majority of the season, but assuming he escaped Week 17 without any setbacks, Pearsall should be ready to play Saturday versus the Seahawks.

Sills caught three passes on four targets for 37 yards during the Falcons' 27-24 win over the Rams on Monday.

Sills finished Monday's game leading the Falcons in receiving yards and second in receptions behind Bijan Robinson' five. Sills' production came despite Kirk Cousins throwing for only 126 yards on 13 completions, and with Drake London not looking fully recovered from a knee injury. Sills and the Falcons will wrap up the regular season Sunday at home against the Saints.

Mooney caught two passes on three targets for 35 yards during the Falcons' 27-24 win over the Rams on Monday.

Mooney made a crucial 13-yard grab on third down to extend a drive that ultimately ended with a four-yard touchdown pass from Kirk Cousins to Bijan Robinson. Mooney added a 22-yard catch late in the third quarter but was not targeted by Cousins again, resulting in a two-catch performance for a second consecutive week. Mooney has caught three passes or fewer in 13 of 14 regular-season games and has seen five targets or more in just six of those contests. The sixth-year wideout will take a 29-423-1 receiving line on 65 targets into Sunday's regular-season finale against the Saints.

The Seahawks moved White (groin) to injured reserve Tuesday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.

White sustained the injury early in the first quarter of last Sunday's game against the Titans. With the move to injured reserve, White will be able to return only for a potential Super Bowl matchup, and even then, only if the Seahawks do not score the first-round bye that comes with the NFC's top seed. In corresponding moves, the team signed Amari Kight to the active roster and signed Montorie Foster to the practice squad as a potential elevation replacement for White.

Brooks wasn't targeted during Sunday's 37-14 defeat in Cincinnati.

Brooks has garnered offensive snaps in four straight games for the Cardinals, but his shares have ranged from five to 71 percent on a weekly basis. He rang in at 30 percent Sunday behind Michael Wilson (86 percent), Xavier Weaver (67 percent) and Marvin Harrison (33 percent). Because Harrison's status for the regular-season finale at the Rams is up in the air after emerging from Week 17 with a foot injury, Brooks could be poised for more snaps this weekend, but his output so far in Arizona (3-51-0 on six targets) isn't appealing for fantasy purposes.

Weaver recorded two catches (on three targets) for 24 yards during Sunday's 37-14 defeat at Cincinnati.

Weaver ranked second among Cardinals wide receivers in offensive snap share (67 percent) behind Michael Wilson (86 percent), which was somewhat aided by Marvin Harrison's (33 percent) early exit in the fourth quarter after he suffered what eventually was called a foot injury (as opposed to his lingering heel issue). The workload was Weaver's third highest of the campaign, and the second-year pro actually set a career high in receiving yards Sunday. Even if Harrison is inhibited or sidelined Week 18 at the Rams, Weaver is an unlikely candidate to produce in that contest considering Wilson and TE Trey McBride have been absorbing most of the targets down the stretch of the current campaign.

Whittington returned three kicks for 80 yards during Monday's 27-24 loss to the Falcons.

For the third time in the last five games, Whittington failed to draw a target on offense. Konata Mumpfield and Xavier Smith have taken over as the primary backups behind Puka Nacua with Davante Adams (hamstring) still nursing an injury, and Whittington tied with Tutu Atwell with just 13 snaps on offense. It's likely that Whittington's primary role for the Rams will continue to be as a kick returner again in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Cardinals.

Atwell failed to secure his only target during Monday's 27-24 loss to the Falcons.

The only target that Atwell managed to earn during his 13 snaps on offense came late in the fourth quarter on a deep ball from Matthew Stafford that bounced off of Atwell's outstretched hands. In his three games back from injury, Atwell has recorded a total of just 25 snaps on offense and only one catch for nine yards, keeping him well off the fantasy radar with the regular-season finale against the Cardinals up next in Week 18.

Mumpfield secured two of five targets for 10 yards during Monday's 27-24 loss to the Falcons.

For the second straight week, Mumpfield brought in less than half of his targets from Matthew Stafford, including an overthrown pass in the second quarter that Jessie Bates intercepted and returned 34 yards for a touchdown. Mumpfield has gotten an extended look in the last six weeks, with at least 20 snaps played on offense during each contest, but an 8-80-0 receiving line on 17 targets over that span doesn't inspire much confidence for fantasy purposes. Week 18 against the Cardinals still has meaning for the Rams in terms of playoff seeding, but even with Davante Adams (hamstring) still recovering from injury, Mumpfield's production seems unlikely to deviate much from his recent trends.

Diggs' attorneys appeared in court on his behalf Tuesday in Dedham, Mass. after the receiver was charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery stemming from an alleged incident that occurred Dec. 2, Frank O'Laughlin of Boston 25 News reports.

Diggs was never arrested in connection with the incident, which took place one day after the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants in Week 13. His attorneys are seeking to have the police report impounded, arguing that details about the case should remain sealed. Diggs is scheduled to be arraigned Jan. 23, but the Patriots haven't yet provided comment on the matter nor indicated whether the wideout's availability for Week 18 against the Dolphins or the team's ensuing postseason run is in any jeopardy.
