  • Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC

    Patriots' Jakobi Meyers: Injures shoulder Sunday

    Meyers exited Sunday's game against the Dolphins after suffering a shoulder injury.

    Before being forced out of the contest, Meyers had caught six of his nine targets for 48 yards and a TD. As long as he's sidelined, added snaps will be available for Tyquan Thornton, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor.

    Cardinals' Robbie Anderson: Ruled out of Sunday's game

    Anderson (back) won't return to Sunday's contest in Atlanta.

    Anderson's Week 17 was abbreviated due to a back injury, resulting in one catch (on one target) for 13 yards. With DeAndre Hopkins (knee) inactive and Rondale Moore (groin) and Antoine Wesley (quadriceps) on IR, Marquise Brown, Greg Dortch, A.J. Green, Pharoh Cooper and Andre Baccellia are the available wide receivers on the Cardinals' active roster.

  • Skyy Moore WR | GB

    Chiefs' Skyy Moore: Hurts hand in Week 17

    Moore won't return to Sunday's game against the Broncos after suffering a hand injury.

    Prior to being forced out of the contest, Moore caught three of his four targets for 33 yards. In his absence, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Justin Watson and Kadarius Toney will handle Kansas City's Week 17 wide receiver duties.

  • Packers' Christian Watson: Suiting up in Week 17

    Watson (hip) is active for Sunday's contest against the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.

    It remains to be seen how much work Watson can handle after taking a seat for the second half of last Sunday's win at Miami due to a hip injury and also failing to practice until Friday, when he was limited. His availability Sunday was tied to a pregame workout, which went well enough for the Packers to make him available to the offense. Over the last six games, Watson has reeled off 25 catches (on 41 targets) for 408 yards and seven touchdowns, so he may be worth a start in the fantasy postseason, if only for his big-play ability.

    Cardinals' Robbie Anderson: Questionable to return Sunday

    Anderson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Falcons with a back injury.

    Anderson caught his lone target for 13 yards before exiting Sunday's contest. While the nature and severity of this back issue are still unclear, the 29-year-old was seen heading to the locker room before the end of the first half, according to Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site. With No. 1 wideout DeAndre Hopkins (knee) already inactive, Arizona will likely rely on Marquise Brown, Greg Dortch and A.J. Green to buoy the team's passing attack for the time being.

  • Seahawks' Tyler Lockett: Back in action Week 17

    Lockett (hand) is active for Sunday's game versus the Jets.

    Lockett underwent surgery to repair a broken left index finger on Dec. 19 and didn't suit up Week 16 at Kansas City. Having said that, he put himself in a position to return sooner than expected by capping Week 17 prep with a limited practice Thursday and a full session Friday. It's unclear if Lockett will be able to handle his normal workload, but he's been good for at least eight targets in eight of 14 appearances on the campaign, which, if it comes to pass again Sunday, may be enough to produce against the Jets' fifth-ranked pass defense.

  • Russell Gage WR | SF

    Buccaneers' Russell Gage: Should still enjoy solid role

    Gage should retain a solid snap share in Sunday's Week 17 divisional battle against the Panthers despite the fact fellow wideout Julio Jones (knee) is active for the contest, per Scott Smith of the team's official site.

    Jones once again was handled with care throughout the practice week due to his lingering knee issues, and although he'll suit up versus Carolina, a similar scenario to last Sunday night's overtime win against the Cardinals could unfold. In that contest, Jones played just 19 snaps to Gage's 43, with the latter producing a 5-65 line on six targets. Given Gage also proved highly valuable with eight receptions, including a pair of touchdowns, in a Week 15 loss to the Bengals that Jones was sidelined for, he could certainly play much more of a co-No. 3 receiver role once again versus the Panthers.

  • Buccaneers' Breshad Perriman: Remains healthy scratch Sunday

    Perriman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 17 clash against the Panthers, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

    The veteran wideout continues to be left off the active roster in favor of fellow speedster Scotty Miller, who'll once again serve as the No. 5 wideout Sunday versus Carolina. Perriman's final chance to garner active status during the regular season comes in next Sunday's Week 18 road matchup versus the Falcons.

  • River Cracraft WR | WAS

    Dolphins' River Cracraft: Returning to action Sunday

    Cracraft (calf) is not on Miami's inactives list for Sunday's Week 17 game against New England.

    Cracraft has been battling a calf injury since Week 13 and has missed each of Miami's past three contests. He logged a DNP both Wednesday and Thursday during Week 17 prep but was able to return to practice in a limited fashion Friday. He's since been deemed healthy enough to play Sunday and could slot in as Miami's No. 4 wideout behind Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle and Trent Sherfield.

  • Saints' Marquez Callaway: Healthy scratch again

    Callaway is inactive for Sunday's game in Philadelphia.

    Callaway was the team's No. 2 receiver at one point earlier this season and got some snaps last week with Chris Olave sidelined by a hamstring injury, but this isn't the first time Callaway has been a healthy scratch. Olave is back in this week, and likely joined by Rashid Shaheed and Tre'Quan Smith as the lead trio at wide receiver. Callaway thus loses out to Kirk Merritt and Keith Kirkwood, both of whom seemingly offer more special-teams value.
