Robinson was diagnosed with a concussion during Monday's wild-card loss in Buffalo, Burt Lauten of the Steelers' official site reports.

After hitting his helmet on the turf late in the third quarter and staying down on the field for a spell, Robinson went to the locker room to be checked for a head injury. With a concussion confirmed, he'll finish his first season with the Steelers with a 34-280-0 line on 49 targets in 17 games.

The Dolphins signed Schwartz to a reserve/future contract Monday.

Schwartz played with the Browns in each of his first two NFL seasons, recording 14 catches on 33 targets for 186 yards and a touchdown over 25 games and adding 96 yards and a touchdown on 10 rushes. He also worked as a kick returner in his rookie campaign, recording 322 yards in that role. The 2021 third-round draft pick suffered a hamstring injury during training camp last season and was eventually waived by Cleveland before joining Miami's practice squad in mid-November. He'll now have a chance to compete for a spot on the team's active roster during training camp this summer.

The Dolphins signed Sanders to a reserve/future contract Monday.

Sanders was originally signed by Miami as an unrestricted free agent in 2022 and got into three contests that season, catching two of three targets for 17 yards over 32 offensive snaps. He remained with the Dolphins last year and spent the campaign on the organization's practice squad. Sanders will have another chance to work for a roster spot during training camp this summer.

Jarrett (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's wild-card game against the Eagles, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

The depth wide receiver missed the last seven games of the regular season with a quadriceps injury, but he did not appear on Tampa Bay's injury report Thursday. In the 10 games he did play in 2023, Jarrett saw 106 offensive snaps and caught four passes for 60 yards and no touchdowns.

The Dolphins signed Conner to a reserve/future contract Monday.

Conner got into three contests during the regular season, tallying 20 offensive snaps and 35 snaps on special teams without notching any stats. The Idaho State product was more active in his rookie 2022 campaign, participating in 13 games, though the vast majority of his work came as a special-teamer. The reserve/future deal he signed Monday will allow Conner a chance to compete for a roster spot during training camp this summer.

Robinson went the locker room during Monday's wild-card game at Buffalo to be evaluated for a concussion, Burt Lauten of the Steelers' official site reports.

Robinson's helmet hit the turf late in the third quarter, and he immediately was escorted to the locker room. Assuming he's diagnosed with a concussion, he'll finish Pittsburgh's postseason opener with two catches (on three targets) for 12 yards.

The Ravens waived Treadwell on Monday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

The veteran wideout has appeared in five games for Baltimore this season, but he's losing his roster spot after bouncing between the practice squad and 53-man unit. Treadwell caught one pass for 16 yards on three targets in the Week 18 loss to the Steelers.

Skowronek recorded eight catches for 66 yards and a touchdown and rushed twice for nine yards during the 2023 regular season.

Skowronek's third year on the Rams was mostly spent as a special-teams mainstay, as Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp and Demarcus Robinson emerged as the leading targets for Matthew Stafford at wideout, with Tutu Atwell and Van Jefferson (before being traded to Atlanta) making up the second tier. Skowronek has one year left on his rookie contract, and he'll likely continue his role as a gadget player capable of lining up in a variety of roles -- including fullback -- on offense and as a trusted special-teams performer. However, neither role is likely to translate to much from a fantasy perspective.

Atwell finished the 2023 regular season with 39 receptions for 483 yards and three touchdowns and five rushes for 31 yards.

This season was supposed to be the next step up for the big-play threat, and in his first four games he looked like he was on that path as he put up an impressive 22-270-1 receiving line. Things went downhill from there, however, as Atwell put together just 11 catches for 197 yards and two touchdowns over his next seven games before losing his starting role to Demarcus Robinson. In the Rams' playoff loss to the Lions, Atwell burned past Kindle Vildor for a 38-yard touchdown but didn't get another touch the rest of the way, similar to the final six games of the regular season with just 40 snaps on offense before being used as a starter in the season finale with Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp and Robinson all getting rest. Atwell has one year remaining on his rookie contract, but with Nacua and Kupp now entrenched as the top two targets for Matthew Stafford, it'll be difficult for the Louisville product to carve out a role beyond the third or fourth option at wide receiver.

The Texans placed Brown (shoulder) on injured reserve Monday.

Brown's 2023 season was full of injuries, and the 28-year-old now will be shut down for the remainder of the Texans' postseason run after he sustained the shoulder injury Saturday on the opening drive of Houston's 45-14 win over Cleveland in the wild-card round. When healthy, Brown was productive with a 33-567-2 line on 55 targets over 10 appearances during the regular season, but he missed seven games due to groin, knee and back issues. With Brown sidelined for the divisional round, the Texans will lean even more on Robert Woods, John Metchie and Xavier Hutchinson behind No. 1 wideout Nico Collins. Brown is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason after signing a one-year deal with Houston this past March.
