Merritt reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Merritt played nine special teams snaps in the Week 15 win over Atlanta, but he didn't see the field on offense. The 25-year-old wide receiver remains stuck on one career NFL catch.

Watkins pulled in four of six targets for six yards and carried the ball twice for four yards in Sunday's 25-20 victory over Chicago.

Watkins set a season high in touches but gained just 10 total yards on the day. With A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith combining for 307 receiving yards, there wasn't much to go around for anybody else. If the Eagles clinch the top seed in the NFC East and rest their starters for the final week or two of the season, however, Watkins could become a much larger part of the game plan.

Sanders reverted to Miami's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Sanders didn't catch his only target in Saturday's loss to the Bills. He has been elevated from the practice squad twice this season.

Woods recorded two catches on four targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Chargers.

Woods finished second among Tennessee's wide receivers in snaps -- he had one fewer than Nick Westbrook-Ikhine -- but that didn't lead to much production. His most notable opportunity came when he was targeted inside the five early in the second quarter, though Derrick Henry ultimately punched in the score one play later. Woods now has 30 or fewer receiving yards in nine games on the campaign.

Westbrook-Ikhine did not record a catch on two targets in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Chargers.

Westbrook-Ikhine paced Titans' pass catchers with 52 snaps (84 percent), but he recorded only two targets for the third time in his last five games. The performance was also the fifth game of the campaign that Westbrook-Ikhine failed to tally a catch.

Davis (concussion) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site previous relayed that coach Robert Saleh indicated that he is "very confident" Davis will be cleared ahead of Thursday night's game against the Jaguars. Davis was unable to practice last week before being ruled out ahead of Sunday's loss to the Lions, but at this stage the wideout is trending in the right direction ahead of Week 16 action.

Webster reverted to Chicago's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Webster was activated for the first time after spending the first 14 weeks of the season on the Bears' practice squad, as Chase Claypool (knee) and N'Keal Harry (coach's decision) were both inactive Sunday versus Philadelphia. With starting wideout Equanimeous St. Brown forced out early with a concussion, the 5-foot-10 Webster went on to catch two of his three targets for 14 yards. However, he still played the fourth-most offensive snaps of the team's wideouts behind Byron Pringle (53), Dante Pettis (47) and Velus Jones (40). Webster will now be eligible for two more elevations from the team's practice squad, and he'll likely continue to see playing time if this banged-up receiving corps does not get healthier before Saturday's game against Buffalo.

Beasley reverted to Buffalo's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Beasley came out of retirement to join the Bills' practice squad Tuesday, and he was activated for his first game back Saturday versus Miami. The 33-year-old went on to catch his lone target for nine yards, as he played the fifth-most offensive snaps (11) of Buffalo's five available wideouts Week 15. Beasley will now be available for two more elevations from the practice squad this season, so he'll likely continue to serve as the team's de facto No. 5 wideout so long as Jake Kumerow (ankle) and Jamison Crowder (ankle) remain on IR.

Reagor didn't have a reception on two targets and had one carry for a five-yard loss in Saturday's overtime win over Indianapolis. He had three punt returns for 13 yards.

Both of Reagor's targets turned into interceptions as he may have run routes incorrectly that led to turnovers. He's mostly been used on gadget plays when on offense, so Saturday's performance in the passing game may not bode well for more playing time if injuries strike the receiving corps. Reagor is still the team's primary punt returner.

Coach Nathaniel Hackett noted Monday that the Broncos are "definitely hoping" Sutton (hamstring) is able to play Sunday against the Rams, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

Sutton, who last suited up Week 13, didn't practice last week, but if the wideout is able to take the field in the coming days, it's possible that he could return to the lineup this weekend. Prior to his injury, Sutton had put together a 52-688-1 line on 89 targets through 12 contests.
