Raymond (knee) was a non-participant at practice Thursday.

Raymond has yet to experience any on-field work since injuring his knee Week 18 versus the Vikings, but coach Dan Campbell told Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press on Wednesday that the wide receiver is "better," and the Lions won't know for sure if he has a chance to return this weekend until "Friday or Saturday." As a result, Raymond's listing on Friday's practice report may be key in terms of his odds of suiting up for Sunday's divisional-round game against the Buccaneers.

The Eagles signed Watkins to a reserve/future contract Thursday, Brad Stainbrook of 247Sports.com reports.

The 25-year-old wideout had spent the entire year with Cleveland's practice squad and he has yet to appear in an NFL game. Watkins was able to haul in 16 passes for 257 yards and two touchdowns for the Browns in their three preseason outings last summer, and he'll look to make a push for a spot on Philadelphia's active roster this offseason.

Watson (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Saturday's divisional-round contest at San Francisco, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

Watson put an end to a five-game absence this past Sunday at Dallas due to a strained right hamstring, but the Packers contained him to 23 of 56 offensive snaps. The result was one catch for nine yards, while fellow wide receiver Romeo Doubs (6-151-1 on six targets) dominated the attention of quarterback Jordan Love. Watson was listed as limited on Tuesday's practice estimate before having his reps capped at Wednesday's walkthrough, but the activity was enough for Green Bay to clear him to suit up again this weekend.

Davis (knee) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Davis has yet to be listed as anything other than a DNP on Bills injury reports since hurting his knee Week 18 at Miami. The wideout missed Buffalo's wild-card win against the Steelers as a result, and he may be in danger of being a spectator for Sunday's divisional-round game versus the Chiefs with no activity to speak of so far this week. If Davis ultimately isn't able to suit up, Khalil Shakir and Trent Sherfield will be the beneficiaries at wide receiver alongside Stefon Diggs.

Wilson secured three of seven targets for 37 yards during Saturday's season-ending wild-card playoff loss to the Chiefs.

Wilson drew his highest target total of the 2023 campaign during Miami's sole playoff appearance, capping a stretch run in which his involvement on offense grew, despite lacking a notable uptick in production. Across 15 regular-season appearances, the 28-year-old wideout secured 17 of 38 targets for 296 yards and three touchdowns, better marks across the board than his 2022 season (also 15 games played). Wilson has emerged as a serviceable No. 3 option behind the dynamic duo of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, but due to the contract restructure he signed back in August, as Jonathan Jones of CBSSports.com reports, his deal will now void automatically void this offseason. It's possible, though, that Miami could pursue re-signing Wilson to a team-friendly deal.

Gray's (shoulder) will remain on injured reserve for the rest of the postseason after his 21-day evaluation window expired Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Gray was designated to return from IR in late December, but he will ultimately be forced to remain sidelined for the rest of the playoffs after his practice window passed without him being added to the 53-man roster. The wide receiver failed to appear in a game during the 2023 campaign and he'll now shift his focus to being ready to go for the 2024 season.

The Ravens signed Treadwell to their practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Baltimore cut Treadwell from the active roster earlier in the week, but he's now back as postseason depth. He has one catch for 16 yards this season.

Smith signed a reserve/future contract with the Chiefs on Wednesday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.

Smith spent a portion of the 2023 campaign on the Titans' practice squad and he'll now get another opportunity with Kansas City. The wide receiver will look to impress and potentially earn a an active roster spot with the Chiefs in 2024.

Ross (hamstring) was a limited participant at the Chiefs' practice Wednesday.

Ross suffered a hamstring injury in Week 18 and he was forced to miss the team's wild-card win over the Dolphins. He'll look to increase his workload throughout the week in order to be ready for Sunday's matchup with the Bills in the divisional round.

Wallace (knee) was a non-participant at the Ravens' practice Wednesday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Wallace has now missed each of Baltimore's first two practice sessions of the week, putting his status for Saturday's matchup with the Texans in question. If he can't go for the divisional round, Justice Hill and Zay Flowers could see an increase in usage in the return game.
