Treylon Burks WR | WAS
Titans' Treylon Burks: DNP at unofficial practice
Burks (concussion) was listed as a non-participant for Tuesday's unofficial practice, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.
Burks has been in the concussion protocol since taking a hard fall near the end of a Week 9 road loss to the Steelers, missing the last two games. Considering he has yet to log any on-field work since then, there's no telling where he stands in his recovery. Until he shows signs of progress, he should be viewed as unlikely to play Sunday against the Panthers.

Dontayvion Wicks WR | PHI
Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Remains listed as DNP
Wicks (concussion/knee) was listed as a non-participant on Tuesday's estimated injury report.
Wicks was evaluated for a head injury in the later stages of Sunday's win over the Chargers, and he wouldn't have practiced Monday or Tuesday if the Packers had held sessions. He appears highly unlikely to gain clearance to play Thursday at Detroit. With Jayden Reed also showing up as limited on Tuesday's report due to a chest issue, Malik Heath and Samori Toure could be in line for more snaps behind Christian Watson (shoulder), who was a full practice participant Tuesday, and Romeo Doubs.

Garrett Wilson WR | NYJ
Jets' Garrett Wilson: Still dealing with elbow injury
Wilson (elbow) was listed as limited on Tuesday's estimated practice report.
Wilson also dealt with an elbow issue last week, but it didn't stop him from playing a typical 88 percent of snaps this past Sunday at Buffalo. His production (2-9-0 on eight targets) in that outing didn't match his previous four games however, as he produced at least seven catches and 80 yards in each. Those struggles may have contributed to the switch at quarterback from Zach Wilson to Tim Boyle, but the second-year wide receiver will need to get healthy ahead of Friday's contest against the Dolphins before getting a chance to show he and Boyle have a better connection.

Christian Watson WR | GB
Packers' Christian Watson: Listed as full Tuesday
Watson (shoulder) was listed as a full participant on Tuesday's estimated practice report.
After showing up as limited on Monday's report, Watson upgraded his activity level one day later as he deals with a shoulder issue that also impacted his on-field reps last week. He's trending toward playing Thursday at Detroit, and Watson posted a 2-25-1 line on four targets against the Lions in his season debut back in Week 4. Considering Jayden Reed (chest) was added to the Packers' report Tuesday as limited and Dontayvion Wicks (concussion/knee), Luke Musgrave (abdomen) and Josiah Deguara (hip) have been listed as DNPs on both occasions, Watson figures to be one of Jordan Love's top Thanksgiving options.

Jayden Reed WR | GB
Packers' Jayden Reed: Tending to chest injury
Reed was added to the Packers' Week 12 practice report Tuesday as limited due to a chest injury.
Head coach Matt LaFleur elaborated on Reed's status, telling Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel on Tuesday that the rookie wide receiver reported soreness in his chest after Sunday's win against the Chargers and that it had become a bigger issue as of Tuesday, putting Reed's availability for Thursday's road game against the Lions in question. As for the rest of Green Bay's receiving options, Christian Watson (shoulder) was listed as a full participant Tuesday, while Dontayvion Wicks (concussion/knee), Luke Musgrave (abdomen) and Josiah Deguara (hip) were DNPs.

Skyy Moore WR | GB
Chiefs' Skyy Moore: Snares one pass versus Eagles
Moore had one reception (on two targets) for four yards during Monday's 21-17 defeat against the Eagles.
Moore hasn't hauled in more than two passes since Week 3 and turned in his lowest receiving total since Week 4's goose egg Monday night. He also has outputs of 11, 15 and eight yards among his last five contests, so there's little to get excited about regarding the second-year wideout's fantasy prospects. He did, at least, see an uptick in playing time again, logging 51 percent of the offensive snaps after logging just 23 percent last time out, but he hasn't drawn more than three targets in any of the last four games.

Tyreek Hill WR | MIA
Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Limited on practice estimate
Hill (hand) was listed as limited on Tuesday's estimated injury report, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.
Hill made a brief exit from Sunday's win against the Raiders due to a hand injury, which impacted his reps during Tuesday's walkthrough. He was able to play through the issue this past weekend on his way to 10 catches on 11 targets for 146 yards and one touchdown on a 57 percent share of the offensive snaps. Hill will have two more days to put the concern behind him ahead of Friday's road game against the Jets.

Mecole Hardman WR | BUF
Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Quiet outing Monday
Hardman reeled in all two targets for 12 yards during Monday's 21-17 loss versus the Eagles.
The Chiefs continue to rotate in a number of wide receivers, and Hardman is no exception to that, playing 20 percent of the snaps Monday. Still, that ranked sixth among Kansas City's wideouts for playing time, so there's little to get excited about in terms of his potential weekly output. He even ceded punt return duties to Kadarius Toney on Monday, so Hardman seems to be trending in the wrong direction for fantasy purposes.

Michael Thomas WR | NO
Saints' Michael Thomas: Heading to injured reserve
The Saints placed Thomas (knee) on injured reserve Tuesday, Brooke Kirchhofer of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Thomas sustained a knee injury on the opening drive in the team's last game Week 10 at Minnesota and wasn't able to return. Afterward, coach Dennis Allen called it a "fairly significant" issue, and following a Week 11 bye, he added that Thomas was "going to take some time" to get healthy, per John Hendrix of SI.com. With the veteran wideout sidelined, Rashid Shaheed and rookie sixth-rounder A.T. Perry should handle expanded roles.

Robbie Chosen WR | WAS
Dolphins' Robbie Chosen: Signs with active roster
Miami signed Chosen from its practice squad to its active roster Tuesday, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.
With Braxton Berrios (hamstring) and Chase Claypool (knee) banged up, the Dolphins saw fit to give Chosen a full-time promotion from their practice squad ahead of Week 12. In five games with Miami so far this season, he's converted four targets into three catches for 107 yards and a touchdown.
