Bobo hauled in two passes (two targets) for 15 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win versus the Patriots.

Bobo played 21 percent of the offensive snaps, ranking fourth in the Seahawks' pecking order. He'll likely have a suppressed role as long as DK Metcalf, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Tyler Lockett are healthy.

Brown told Lisa Salters of ESPN on Monday that he expects to miss a couple of weeks due to the hamstring injury he suffered at Friday's practice.

Brown is active for Monday's game against the Falcons, and the wideout already appears resigned to missing the Eagles' Week 3 game Sunday in New Orleans, as well. The Eagles haven't confirmed a recovery timeline for Brown, but the team will likely be motivated to err on the side of caution and hold him out until he's no longer at risk of returning prematurely and aggravating the hamstring injury. Assuming he does miss more time, wideouts DeVonta Smith and Jahan Dotson and tight end Dallas Goedert should be the prime beneficiaries in terms of targets.

Patrick reverted to the Lions' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers marked Patrick's first game action since Jan. 8, 2022. Since then, he endured back-to-back season-ending injuries that wiped away the 2022 and 2023 campaigns entirely. Patrick played a modest 39 percent snap share and turned it into two catches (on three targets) for 12 yards, a workload that he may be able to sustain in the short term with WRs Amon-Ra St. Brown (lower leg) and Isaiah Williams (abdomen) tending to injuries at the moment.

Humphrey reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday.

Like he was before the Broncos' season-opening loss at Seattle, Humphrey was elevated prior to the team's Week 2 game, but he played a far bigger role. His snap share increased from 30 to 77 percent, and he hauled in four of five targets for 50 yards as a result. The increased workload for Humphrey may have been spurred by the absence of rookie wideout Devaughn Vele (ribs), but in any case the former seems poised to be a regular in three-receiver sets along with Courtland Sutton and Josh Reynolds for as long as Vele is sidelined.

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

Kennedy played five offensive snaps during Sunday's 20-16 loss versus the Buccaneers, and he failed to bring in his first target of the season. The Lions will be able to call him back up from the practice squad once more this year before they'd have to add him to the 53-man roster in order for him to be available.

Skowronek reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Skowronek was elevated to the active roster for the second consecutive week to kick off the season. The depth receiver saw the field for six of 66 offensive snaps, as well as 12 on special teams. Skowronek did not draw any targets, however, but he was credited with one tackle.

Johnson reverted to Chicago's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Johnson played just one offensive snap during Sunday's 19-13 loss at Houston. His prospects of suiting up again in Week 3 might hinge on whether or not Keenan Allen (heel) is available.

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Samuel strained his calf with just over two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss at Minnesota, and the injury will cause the wide receiver to sit out "a couple" games, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

At first glance, Samuel's snap share (86 percent) and output (10 touches for 100 yards from scrimmage) from Week 2 weren't out of the ordinary, so the timing of the health concern makes sense. Assuming Samuel is sidelined for at least Sunday's road game against the Rams, Jauan Jennings will be the top option to step up alongside starting wideout Brandon Aiyuk, with Chris Conley, Ronnie Bell and Jacob Cowing the other healthy members at the position on the 49ers' active roster.

Wilson (hamstring) is active for Monday's matchup with the Falcons.

Wilson drew a questionable designation heading into Week 2, but he will ultimately play through it. The rookie saw 10 offensive snaps, as well as seven on special teams, in his NFL debut versus the Packers. He projects to see a similar workload against the Falcons.

Coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Samuel suffered a calf strain and is slated to miss "a couple weeks," David Lombardi of The Athletic reports.

Samuel presumably picked up the health concern during Sunday's loss to the Vikings, a contest in which he logged a typical snap share (86 percent) while recording eight catches (on 10 targets) for 110 yards and two carries for minus-2 yards. With Samuel in line to miss game action, Jauan Jennings likely will be the primary beneficiary next to starting WR Brandon Aiyuk, but Chris Conley, Ronnie Bell and Jacob Cowing are the other options at the position on the active roster.
