Bell (thumb/toe) is inactive for Saturday's game against the Ravens.

Bell was listed as a non-participant in practice Tuesday through Thursday before being the lone Cleveland player assigned a Week 15 injury designation (questionable). He'll sit this one out, with 2022 sixth-rounder Michael Woods and hybrid running back/receiver Demetric Felton likely next up for added snaps Saturday alongside starting WRs Amari Cooper and Donovan Peoples-Jones.

Tennessee elevated Kinsey from its practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game at the Chargers, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

With Treylon Burks (concussion) ruled out for Sunday, the Titans saw fit to bring Kinsey on board to provide some depth at wide receiver. He caught his only target for three yards in his lone appearance versus Indianapolis back in Week 7.

The Patriots expect Meyers (concussion), who is listed as questionable, to play Sunday against the Raiders, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

After sitting out this past Monday's win over the Cardinals, Meyers returned to practice in a limited fashion Friday and looks to be trending toward a return to the lineup Sunday. Official confirmation of the wide receiver's Week 15 status will arrive once the Patriots' inactive list is posted ahead of the team's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff.

Moore (ankle), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Steelers, is expected to play, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Per Fowler, Moore had a productive week of practice and is thus trending toward suiting up versus Pittsburgh, though the wideout's status is nonetheless worth confirming. Fortunately for those inclined to use Moore in Week 15 fantasy lineups, the Panthers kick off among the early wave of Sunday games at 1 p.m. ET.

Hart caught his lone target for a three-yard gain in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the 49ers.

Hart entered the lineup after being a healthy scratch in each of the previous three games. He played just two offensive snaps, tying rookie Dareke Young for fourth among Seahawks wideouts. Hart and Young could both handle increased reps in Week 16 versus the Chiefs following news that Tyler Lockett (finger) is expected to miss at least one game. DK Metcalf and Marquise Goodwin are locked into the top two spots, though.

Young played two offensive snaps in Thursday's 21-13 loss to the 49ers and didn't record a catch.

Young did haul in a 22-yard pass in the second quarter, but it was negated by a holding call. That would've been his first career catch. He could have more opportunities to snag his first pass in Week 16 versus the Chiefs because Tyler Lockett is expected to miss at least one game with a broken finger, leaving DK Metcalf and Marquise Goodwin as the top pass catchers. Young and Penny Hart will battle for the No. 3 job, and it wouldn't be surprising to see both players handle a modest snap count.

Snead reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Snead was elevated ahead of Thursday's 21-13 win over the Seahawks. He played 17 of his 20 snaps on special teams and did not record any stats. Snead has been active for three games and has yet to be targeted.

Meyers (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Meyers closed out the week with a limited practice, which gives him a chance to return to action this weekend following a one-game absence. Meanwhile, fellow wideout DeVante Parker (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest. Look for added context with regard to Meyers' Week 15 status to arrive late Saturday or early Sunday, but if he's available, the 26-year-old would presumably be in line to reclaim a key role in a Patriots wideout corps that also includes Nelson Agholor, Kendrick Bourne and Tyquan Thornton.

James cleared concussion protocol Friday and no longer has an injury designation for Sunday's game at Washington, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

James should be a big part of the offense, as he's taken most of the slot snaps since Wan'Dale Robinson's ACL tear and is coming off season highs for snap share (91 percent) and targets (nine) in a 48-22 loss to Philadelphia last week. He had a 7-61-1 receiving line before suffering a concussion late in the game, working alongside Darius Slayton and Isaiah Hodgins (all three topped 80 percent snap share with the Giants falling behind early and rarely using multi-TE formations). A better performance from the team this week likely would mean fewer targets for James, among others.

Parker (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest at Las Vegas.

Parker suffered a head injury Monday in Arizona and was unable to return, and he eventually entered the concussion protocol, joining teammate Jakobi Meyers. While Meyers has a chance to limit himself to a one-game absence this weekend, Parker will sit out, leaving the Patriots with a potential receiving corps of Meyers, Nelson Agholor, Kendrick Bourne and Tyquan Thornton, among others, Sunday. Parker's next opportunity to play will arrive Saturday, Dec. 24 against the Bengals.
