Corey Davis WR | NYJ
Jets' Corey Davis: Totals 536 yards in 2022
Davis caught one of three targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 11-6 loss to the Dolphins. He finished the season with 32 catches on 64 targets for 536 yards and two touchdowns.
Davis needed just nine games to rack up 34 catches for 492 yards and four touchdowns in 2021. He played four more games in the 2022 campaign but had two fewer catches and two fewer touchdowns while totaling only 44 more yards. Rookie first-round pick Garrett Wilson emerged as the go-to option in the Jets' passing game, and the team's poor quarterback play didn't leave room for another receiver to produce consistently. Davis -- who turns 28 on Jan. 11 -- has one more year left on his contract but no guaranteed money.

Scott Miller WR | CHI
Buccaneers' Scotty Miller: One catch in Week 18 loss
Miller secured one of two targets for eight yards in the Buccaneers' 30-17 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.
Miller logged 21 snaps from scrimmage, his highest tally since Week 9, as the Buccaneers pulled most starters before halftime. However, while the speedster recorded his first reception since Week 13, Miller still saw minimal action and is likely to be a virtual non-factor on offense during next Monday night's wild-card matchup against the Cowboys.

Josh Ali WR | ATL
Falcons' Josh Ali: Signs new deal with Atlanta
The Falcons signed Ali to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Ali was elevated ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against the Buccaneers and played seven offensive snaps with zero catches on one target. The 6-foot wideout then reverted to the team's practice squad before inking this new deal with the team heading into the offseason, per the NFL's transaction log. Ali ended his season-long stint on the Falcons' practice squad with back-to-back elevations over the final two weeks of the regular season, and he'll now compete for a spot on the active roster this offseason.

Malik Taylor WR | DET
Jets' Malik Taylor: Lands new deal with Jets
The Jets signed Taylor to a reserve/future contract Monday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Taylor was placed on Green Bay's IR with an undisclosed injury in mid-August before being waived with an injury settlement Sept. 15. The 27-year-old then spent the majority of the season unsigned before joining the Jets' practice squad Dec. 29. Taylor caught seven of 13 targets for 80 yards and a touchdown across 25 games during the previous two seasons with the Packers. He'll now look to make an impression with the Jets this offseason.

Jamal Agnew WR | ATL
Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: One catch Week 18
Agnew caught his lone target for eight yards, returned four kickoffs for 125 yards and two punts for 33 yards during Saturday's 20-16 win against the Titans.
Agnew played just seven offensive snaps Saturday and caught exactly one pass for the third consecutive contest. The 27-year-old has worked as a gadget player in Jacksonville's offense this year and has 23 catches for 187 yards and three touchdowns plus 12 carries for 86 yards. He should remain in that role for the playoffs and for 2023, which is the final year of his contract.

Nsimba Webster WR | CHI
Bears' Nsimba Webster: Staying in Chicago
The Bears signed Webster to a reserve/future contract Monday, Larry Mayer of the team's official site reports.
Webster was waived as part of Chicago's final roster cuts in late August before quickly re-joining via the practice squad. The fourth-year wideout then remained idle on the practice squad before being elevated in back-to-back games Week 15 and 16, recording the first two receptions of his career over during this span. Webster has now appeared in eight games over the past two seasons for the Bears, and he'll likely compete for another depth and special-teams role heading into the 2023 season.

Jaquarii Roberson WR | LAR
Rams' Jaquarii Roberson: Lands another deal with Rams
The Rams signed Roberson to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Roberson will stick with the Rams after signing with the team's practice squad Dec. 1. The 24-year-old was presumably brought on to provide depth for the team's injury-riddled wide receiver corps, though he was never elevated from the practice squad before the end of the season. Roberson has now spent the first two years of his career bouncing between practice squads, and he'll once again look to secure a spot on the active roster heading into the 2023 season.

Jerreth Sterns WR | LAR
Rams' Jerreth Sterns: Staying in LA
The Rams signed Sterns to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Sterns signed with Tampa Bay as an undrafted free agent in May 2022, though he was let go as part of the team's final roster cuts in August. The 5-foot-9 wideout then went unsigned before joining the Rams' practice squad Dec. 22. Sterns will now look to make his NFL debut heading into the 2023 campaign.

Zay Jones WR | ARI
Jaguars' Zay Jones: Quiet showing Week 18
Jones caught four of six targets for 21 yards during Saturday's 20-16 win over the Titans.
Jones had a slow finish to the regular season with just eight receptions for 59 yards across the past three games. Still, it was a successful first year in Jacksonville for the 27-year-old, and he closed the regular season with career highs in receptions (82) and receiving yards (823). He should continue to work as the Jags' No. 2 wideout for the playoffs.

Chris Lacy WR | LV
Raiders' Chris Lacy: Given another contract by Las Vegas
The Raiders signed Lacy to a future/reserve contract Monday.
Lacy was initially waived by Las Vegas after spending about two weeks with the team this preseason, and he re-joined the team via the practice squad in mid-August. The 6-foot-3 wideout was then elevated ahead of Saturday's regular-season finale against Kansas City, though he ultimately did not see the field. Lacy was one of 13 players to sign a reserve/future contract with the Raiders on Monday, so he'll likely compete with DJ Turner and Isaiah Zuber for a depth role heading into the 2023 season.
