  • Tyler Scott WR | LAR

    Tyler Scott: New opportunity with Rams

    The Rams signed Scott to the practice squad Tuesday.

    Scott was cut from the Seahawks' practice squad Friday, but he'll remain in the NFC West after the Rams picked him up. It's the fourth team that he'll be a member of since participating in Chicago's training camp, and he has yet to appear in a regular-season game in 2025. The third-year wideout appeared in 11 regular-season games for the Bears in 2024 and logged one catch for five yards while also playing on special teams.

  • Bryson Green WR | ARI

    Bryson Green: Cut from practice squad

    Arizona cut Green from the practice squad Tuesday.

    Green rejoined Arizona's practice squad mid-October after having spent time with the team during training camp, but the undrafted rookie will now once again become a free agent. He'll be a candidate to resurface as a member of the Cardinals' practice squad at a later date.

  • Hal Presley WR | TEN

    Hal Presley: Catches on with Tennessee

    The Titans signed Presley to the practice squad Tuesday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

    The Titans will be the third team Presley has been with since signing with the Bills as an undrafted free agent in April before joining the Chiefs in training camp. He spent his entire four-year college career in Baylor, and during the 2024 season he logged 31 catches for 429 yards and three touchdowns across 11 games.

  • Malik Nabers WR | NYG

    Giants' Malik Nabers: Surgery completed

    Nabers underwent successful surgery Tuesday to repair a torn ACL and meniscus in his right knee, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    The star wideout sustained the knee injury in a Sept. 28 win over the Chargers, but he had been completing a "prehab" program over the past month before finally going under the knife Tuesday. He's scheduled to be discharged from the hospital Wednesday and will be able to immediately begin what's expected to be an extensive rehab process. Given that he suffered his knee injury early in the season, the 22-year-old is expected to be back to full health by the start of the 2026 campaign.

  • Luke McCaffrey WR | WAS

    Commanders' Luke McCaffrey: Serves as No. 3 wideout in loss

    McCaffrey recorded three receptions for 24 yards on three targets in Monday's 28-7 loss to Kansas City. He also returned one kickoff for 37 yards.

    Though Deebo Samuel (heel) and Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) returned from their respective injury absences, McCaffrey actually saw his playing time pick up Monday. He had seen his snap shares hover between 30 and 45 percent over the previous three weeks, but McCaffrey ended up playing 27 of 53 offensive snaps (51 percent) against Kansas City, placing him second among Washington wideouts behind only Samuel. McLaurin's playing time was suppressed after he appeared to aggravate his quad injury during the second half, so if he's unable to play in Sunday's game against the Seahawks, the Commanders could once again look to McCaffrey to handle an expanded role.

  • Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Comes up empty Monday

    Brown was unable to reel in his lone target during Monday's 28-7 win against the Commanders.

    Brown saw just 26 snaps during Monday's tilt, marking the second straight game he's seen fewer than 30 snaps. That coincides with the return of star wide receiver Rashee Rice, whose six-game suspension concluded prior to last week's contest versus the Raiders. However, that also coincides with two comfortable wins against the Raiders (31-0) and the Marcus Mariota-led Commanders (28-7), so the passing attack will likely be more relied upon in the coming weeks with the Bills, Broncos and Colts on the schedule.

  • Jaylin Lane WR | WAS

    Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Shares No. 4 wideout role in Week 8

    Lane caught one pass for zero yards on two targets while playing 23 of the Commanders' 53 snaps on offense in Monday's 28-7 loss to the Chiefs. He also returned two kickoffs for 30 yards and one punt for 14 yards.

    Lane's 43 percent snap share tied him with Chris Moore for fourth among Washington wideouts, trailing Deebo Samuel, Luke McCaffrey and Terry McLaurin. Both Samuel and McLaurin had returned to action following injury-related absences, though McLaurin was limited to just 25 snaps after suffering an apparent aggravation of his quadriceps injury late in the contest. If McLaurin isn't cleared to play in Washington's next game Sunday versus the Seahawks, Lane could be in line for increased opportunities in the passing game, though he would still make for an unreliable option in fantasy lineups.

  • Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Minimal output versus Washington

    Smith-Schuster gathered in both of his targets for 29 yards during Monday's 28-7 win versus the Commanders.

    Smith-Schuster totaled just 21 offensive snaps in the contest, his lowest total of the season, and his second week in a row playing fewer than 30 offensive snaps. With Rashee Rice back in the fold and the wideout room healthy, this trend seems likely to continue. Smith-Schuster was already on the waiver wire in a lot of leagues before Rice returned, and there are very few situations where he's worth rostering in fantasy at the moment.

  • Chris Moore WR | WAS

    Commanders' Chris Moore: Blanked in Week 8

    Moore went without a target while playing 23 of the Commanders' 53 snaps on offense in Monday's 28-7 loss to the Chiefs.

    Moore had logged at least five targets in both of the Commanders' previous two games, but the return of Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel from injury ended up pushing Moore down in the pass-catching hierarchy Monday. He ended up sharing the No. 4 receiver role with rookie Jaylin Lane, who played an equal number of snaps but drew two more targets on the night. McLaurin left the game in the fourth quarter due to an apparent aggravation of his quadriceps injury, so if he's unable to play in Washington's next game Sunday versus the Seahawks, both Moore and Lane could see their roles increase.

  • Chiefs' Xavier Worthy: Nabs five passes on MNF

    Worthy reeled in five of seven targets for 53 yards during Monday's 28-7 victory over the Commanders.

    The second-year wideout logged the second-most snaps among Kansas City wideouts Monday, with his 58 coming in one shy of Rashee Rice (59). Worthy also claimed his highest target volume since Week 5 after recording just four targets in each of the last two tilts. He enters Week 9 as the No. 2 WR ahead of Hollywood Brown but remains firmly behind Rice -- who has claimed 19 targets in two games since returning from a six-game suspension -- in the pecking order.
