Bateman caught one of three targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Bills.

Bateman actually led the Ravens in receiving yards on a day in which three quarterbacks attempted passes for Baltimore. Since posting a 7-88-1 receiving line in Week 2 against the Saints, Bateman has totaled 12 grabs for 200 yards and no scores over his last six games. He has minimal fantasy appeal while Zay Flowers is healthy.

Hurst failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 16-0 win over the Falcons.

Even with Emeka Egbuka (foot) missing a second straight game, Hurst couldn't catch a break, as the game was played in a downpour. Tampa Bay attempted just three passes during the entire game. Hurst has now gone without a catch in back-to-back games without Egbuka in the lineup. He has minimal fantasy appeal outside of being a hold in dynasty formats.

Harris caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 24-9 loss to the Rams.

After missing Week 6 with a hamstring injury, Harris was healthy coming out of the Week 7 bye but played pretty clearly behind both Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston against the Rams. Harris ran just 20 routes to McConkey's 34 and Johnston's 30. Harris would see a big boost if Johnston gets traded ahead of next week's deadline.

Ridley caught one of three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 43-36 overtime loss to the Bengals.

Ridley has been a total non-factor all season and remains likely to be dealt ahead of next week's trade deadline, if there's a team willing to take on the remainder of his $5.49 million salary for this season. He doesn't appear to have much left in the tank at 31 years old.

Restrepo reverted to the Titans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

All 19 of Restrepo's snaps in Week 8 came on special teams, and he recorded two solo tackles in that phase. With rookie first-rounder Carnell Tate (shoulder) expected back after Tennessee's bye in Week 9, Restrepo's path to snaps at wide receiver isn't getting any easier to see.

Johnson reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Johnson's third consecutive elevation to the active roster results in his first target and catch for nine yards. The wide receiver will now need to be signed to the 53-man roster to suit up for the Steelers in any future 2026 regular-season contests.

Miller reverted to the Patriots' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

The wide receiver was elevated for New England's Week 8 win over Miami after the team ruled out A.J. Brown (knee/ankle). Miller saw action on five offensive snaps but did not record a catch. Brown's status next week could go a long way toward determining whether Miller is elevated again.

Jennings caught both of his targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 19-15 loss to the Lions.

The Vikings' third receiver, Jennings ran 20 route on Kyler Murray's 33 dropbacks, playing behind both Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison. Jennings' name has been linked to trade speculation but recently declined a deal to San Francisco after the two teams agreed to trade parameters. Jennings has six grabs for 54 yards on 10 targets across six games this season.

Thompson (quadriceps/hamstring) is not expected to practice this week, Noah Furtado of The Athletic reports.

Thompson recently suffered a setback with his pair of soft-tissue injuries. Another one of OC Mike McDaniel's swings and misses this offseason, Thompson hasn't played since Week 2 and has just one catch for 13 yards on 22 offensive snaps. The fourth-round rookie has been a non-factor.

Ayomanor caught three of five targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 43-36 overtime loss to the Bengals.

Even with Carnell Tate (shoulder) inactive against Cincinnati, Ayomanor's role didn't grow much, as Wan'Dale Robinson, Gunnar Helm and Chimere Dike combined to see 22 of the team's 39 targets. Through eight games this season, Ayomanor has 13 grabs for 211 yards and a touchdown on 26 targets.
