Reynolds caught 38 of 59 targets for 479 yards with three touchdowns over 14 games in 2022.

Opening the year as the No. 3 wideout behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and DJ Chark, Reynolds had a handful of big games early on before suffering through a mid-season back injury. While Reynolds worked his way back into the mix down the stretch, by that time Jameson Williams also was healthy enough to play and, consequently, steal snaps from Reynolds. While the Texas A&M product technically remains under contract to return to his complementary role in 2023, it is possible that Detroit will consider saving nearly $4 million against the salary cap -- while making room for Williams to make a second-year leap -- by letting Reynolds go this offseason.

Head coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Crowder (ankle) is ruled out for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against Cincinnati, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

McDermott said Crowder is moving in the right direction, but the veteran wideout still will need a bit more time before making his potential return. Crowder resumed practicing last week, just over three months after he suffered a fractured ankle in a Week 4 win. With Isaiah McKenzie having resumed practicing in full, however, the Bills aren't in serious need of additional receiver depth.

Jennings (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Eric Branch of the San Francisco Chronicle reports.

As he did Wednesday, giving Jennings just one more chance to get back to all activity before the 49ers potentially hand him a designation for Sunday's divisional-round game against the Cowboys. In 17 appearances this season (including playoffs), he's been targeted at least twice on every occasion, which likely is what he'll be in store for this weekend, if active, with fellow wide receivers Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk available to the offense.

The Ravens signed Isabella to a reserve/future contract Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.

Isabella will stick with Baltimore after joining the team's practice squad Oct. 10. The 5-foot-9 wideout collected 30 of 47 targets for 413 yards and three touchdowns over his first two seasons with Arizona, though he became a total non-factor in 2021 and was waived after the first four games of the 2022 regular season. Isabella was elevated for three games with Baltimore, including the loss to Cincinnati in the wild-card round of the playoffs. However, he never caught a pass while playing six offensive snaps across these contests, so he'll look to carve out a much more significant role heading into the 2023 campaign.

The Bears signed Reed to a reserve/future contract Thursday.

Reed has spent the past three seasons with the Chargers, though he did not appear in a game over the past two seasons while residing on the team's practice squad. The 6-foot, 224-pound wideout will now look to carve out a role in a Bears receiving corps that lacked any significant contributors this regular season.

Pryor (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chiefs.

Pryor popped up with a shoulder injury ahead of last Saturday's wild-card win over the Chargers, ultimately leaving him sidelined for the contest. It's possible the undrafted rookie could now be ruled inactive for the second week in a row, as he was limited during each practice heading into this Saturday's playoff tilt. Pryor has yet to make his NFL debut since being claimed off waivers by Jacksonville on Aug. 31. However, with veteran Jaguars wideout Jamal Agnew (shoulder) also considered questionable to play, it's possible the team could be left with just four available receivers for the divisional round versus Kansas City.

Agnew (shoulder) is considered questionable for Saturday's game against Kansas City.

Agnew will be questionable to play for the second week in a row while dealing with a shoulder injury. The talented returner has been limited during every practice over the past two weeks due to this lingering issue, though he was still deemed active for last Saturday's wild-card win over the Chargers. Therefore, it's likely Agnew is on the same trajectory heading into this highly anticipated road playoff matchup. If not, then JaMycal Hasty and/or Christian Kirk should be in line to serve as Jacksonville's top returners on special teams.

Coach John Harbaugh indicated Thursday that Bateman (foot) should be able to run at full speed "really soon," Jonas Shaffer of The Baltimore Sun reports.

Bateman, who is bouncing back from surgery to address a Lisfranc foot injury, last saw game action Week 8 of the 2022 regular season, but it sounds like the 2021 first-rounder will be ready to go once the Ravens next take the field. Prior to being placed on IR, Bateman caught 15 of his 28 targets for 285 yards and two TDs in six games. Provided he avoids any setbacks ahead of the 2023 campaign, the 6-foot-1, 197-pounder should reclaim his starting slot in what figures to be a retooled Baltimore wideout corps.

Hardman (pelvis) has been ruled out for Saturday's playoff contest against the Jaguars.

Hardman was unable to practice this week, so he'll target a potential return to action a week from Sunday, should Kansas City advance to the AFC Championship Game with a win over Jacksonville. In his continued absence this weekend, Kadarius Toney, Justin Watson and Skyy Moore are candidates to handle added opportunities behind the team's top two wide receivers, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Hodgins (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Saturday's divisional-round game at Philadelphia, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Hodgins was listed as limited on all three of the Giants' injury reports this week, but his ankle issue won't stop him from suiting up for the second round of the postseason. Since landing with the team prior to Week 10, he's been one of its top three wide receivers along with Darius Slayton and Richie James, gathering in 41 of 51 targets for 456 yards and five touchdowns over the past nine games.
