The Browns signed Proche to their practice squad Tuesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Proche was cut by the Ravens at the end of training camp ahead of the 53-man roster deadline. He had workouts with the Jets and Giants in September, but has finally caught on with the Browns' practice squad. Proche will work on getting up to speed with the offense's playbook and prepare for a chance to be called up to the active roster.

Davis caught his two lone targets for four yards Sunday in the Chargers' 30-13 win over the Bears.

One week after having multiple running plays schemed for him, Davis wasn't unlocked in a contest that became uncompetitive quickly. With just nine offensive snaps Sunday and only 11 the week prior, it's hard to suggest the 23-year-old has much fantasy value save for deeper leagues.

Renfrow caught two passes for 19 yards on four targets in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.

Renfrow was on the field for 28 of the Raiders' 46 offensive snaps as the team played from behind for much of the contest, but he was held to two or less receptions for the eighth consecutive week. If nobody's dealt ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline, Renfrow figures to remain behind Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers in the pecking order at wide receiver against the Giants in Week 9.

Green was not targeted with a pass during Monday's win over Las Vegas.

Green saw 44 percent of the offensive snaps last week following the departure of Marvin Jones (personal), but his playing time plummeted to six offensive snaps this week. The North Carolina product won't have any chance at fantasy relevance unless he somehow returns to a larger offensive role.

Raymond caught two passes on four targets for 24 yards while rushing once for minus-2 yards during Monday's win over Las Vegas.

Even though Raymond ran as the fourth receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Josh Reynolds and Jameson Williams, he finished second among the bunch in most receiving categories. However, he logged only about a quarter of the offensive snaps, and he probably won't see much more than that in any game going forward with Detroit prioritizing the development of Williams.

Williams caught two of three targets for 16 yards during Monday's win over Las Vegas.

After a brutal Week 7 showing that saw Williams catch zero passes on six targets, Williams dropped another pass on his first target of the game before getting leveled on a jet sweep that counted as a reception for Williams. While he otherwise managed to catch a pass for a positive gain, Williams has only one of those over the past two weeks despite now running as the clear No. 3 receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Josh Reynolds. The bright side is that Williams is earning targets at a much higher rate than Reynolds, and the absence of Marvin Jones (personal) only bodes well for Williams' playing time going forward. After a Week 9 bye, Williams will return for a Week 10 date with a Chargers team allowing the most yards per reception league-wide (8.4) and 33.9 more passing yards per game to the next-closest team through eight weeks.

Reynolds caught one pass for 13 yards during Monday's win over the Raiders.

The Lions leaned heavily on Reynolds and Amon-Ra St. Brown, who each logged at least 83 percent of the snaps while the next-closest receiver, Jameson Williams, checked in at 40 percent. However, Reynolds again did little with his opportunities and has now seen three fewer targets than Williams over the past four weeks despite seeing roughly double the playing time. Reynolds could become an afterthought in the Lions passing game should Williams keep eating into his playing time, though an appetizing Week 10 matchup with the Chargers secondary gives hope for both players to find success after Detroit's Week 9 bye.

Pierce had three receptions for 41 yards on five targets in Sunday's loss to New Orleans.

Pierce tied his season high in receptions (he has four games with three receptions) which speaks more to how little production he's had this season. He remains a starting receiver and Indy's deep threat, but the Colts haven't targeted him down the field much this season. He has 17 receptions on 30 targets for 243 yards and no touchdowns.

Harty was not targeted in the passing game and saw action on just six offensive snaps in Thursday's 24-18 win over Tampa Bay.

Meanwhile, Harty's teammate Khalil Shakir had a banner day with six catches for 92 yards. Shakir saw action on 45 offensive snaps, making him the clear No. 3 receiver in the offense, while fellow depth receiver Trent Sherfield saw action on 21 offensive snaps. Harty did find the end zone once in Week 6, but he hasn't had more than three catches or four targets in any game this season, keeping him in a reserve role and unusable in fantasy leagues. Harty is at least serving as the team's main punt returner, handling all 11 returns so far for 99 yards.

Meyers caught his only target for 19 yards in Monday's 26-14 loss to the Lions.

Meyers' lone target didn't come until the fourth quarter, as Jimmy Garoppolo threw for just 62 yards through the first three quarters and finished with 126 passing yards in the quarterback's return from a back injury. The wide receiver also made a heads-up play later in the fourth to momentarily keep the Raiders' faint hopes alive, jumping on top of a Josh Jacobs fumble and advancing it one yard. Meyers had at least four catches in four of his previous six appearances this season, so he'll likely be much more involved in Week 9 against the Giants, assuming Garoppolo puts forth a sharper performance.
