Robinson reverted to Detroit's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Robinson saw just one snap during Sunday's 20-13 win at Arizona and did not record any stats. As long as Detroit continues to lean on its running game and Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams remain available, it's difficult to imagine any other Lions wideout having any fantasy relevance.

Johnson reverted to Chicago's practice squad Monday.

In his second game this season, Johnson managed to record an assisted tackle while covering a kickoff and also saw two snaps on offense. He could be elevated again next week if Keenan Allen (heel) remains sidelined.

Irwin (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Commanders.

With Tee Higgins making his 2024 debut after missing the first two games of the season with a hamstring injury, Irwin is the odd man out among Cincinnati's receiver group. Irwin did little with his increased playing time against the Patriots and Chiefs in Weeks 1 and 2, respectively, reeling in just two of eight targets for 11 yards.

Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo said Monday that Bourne (knee) continues to progress toward making his season debut, though the receiver is without a clear timeline to be activated from the reserve/PUP list, Khari Thompson of The Boston Globe reports. "Yeah, he's making great progress. He's running fast. He looks good in his routes. When he's ready to be out there, he'll be out there," Mayo said of Bourne.

Bourne will miss at least one more contest while he continues his recovery from the torn ACL he suffered last October, but it's possible that he could return to practice after the Patriots' Sept. 29 game against the 49ers. Once he's back up to speed, the 29-year-old should reclaim a key role in the team's receiving corps, which has been led by DeMario Douglas, K.J. Osborn and Ja'Lynn Polk through the first three weeks of the season.

Reagor agreed to a contract with the Chargers' practice squad Monday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Reagor was reportedly scheduled to visit with the Rams on Monday, but it's since come to light that the 25-year-old wideout was actually meeting with the Chargers and will now join their practice squad, per Howard Balzer of USA Today. The 2020 first-round pick could be elevated to the Bolts' active roster if the team's wide-receiver room experiences injuries at any point this season.

Jones (foot) is active ahead of Monday night's matchup with the Bills.

Jones appeared to have sustained a foot injury during the Jaguars' week of practice, but that issue won't stop him from suiting up for the team's Week 3 matchup with the Bills. Expect Jones to play almost strictly on special teams Monday night.

Head coach Sean McVay said that Kupp (ankle) will not be available for Sunday's game against the Bears, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

Though the Rams thus far have avoided placing Kupp on injured reserve, he'll miss a second straight game due to the ankle injury he sustained in the Week 2 loss to the Cardinals. For now, the Rams seem to be taking a week-to-week approach with Kupp, and it wouldn't be surprising if he's ultimately ruled out for the team's Week 5 matchup with the Packers with a bye week on tap Week 6. With Puka Nacua (knee) on IR and Kupp sitting out the Week 3 win over the 49ers, Demarcus Robinson (93 percent of snaps) and Tutu Atwell (73 percent) paced Rams wideouts in playing time, though Tyler Johnson (49 percent) and Jordan Whittington (40 percent) saw a fair amount of involvement as well.

Dulin didn't have a reception on his only target in Sunday's win over Chicago.

While Dulin didn't have a reception, it was notable he worked as the No. 4 receiver and played more snaps on offense (14) than Adonai Mitchell (7) with the return of Josh Downs from an ankle injury. Dulin is a key special-teams player, but he won't get many snaps on offense barring injuries elsewhere in the receiving corps.

The Rams hosted Reagor on a visit Monday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Reagor was dropped from the Patriots' practice squad last week, but it now appears he could have another opportunity with the Rams. If Monday's visit goes well, the 2020 first-round pick could be added to Los Angeles' practice squad to provide depth to a Rams wide-receiver unit that's currently depleted by injuries.

Mitchell did not have a reception and had just one target in Sunday's win over Chicago.

With Josh Downs returning from a high ankle sprain, Mitchell moved to a reserve role. Mitchell played just seven snaps on offense and fell behind Alec Pierce, who played on 43 of the offense's 56 snaps. He even played less than Ashton Dulin (14 snaps). Mitchell appeared to have won the third receiver role over Pierce in the preseason, but Pierce has had several big plays the first three games while Mitchell had a crucial drop Week 2. It may take some time before Mitchell finds a prominent role in the offense again barring injuries to the top three receivers.
