Coach Kyle Shanahan said Gray (hamstring) is considered day-to-day, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Gray suffered a hamstring injury in the second half of Thursday's 21-13 win over Seattle and didn't return. However, he appears to have avoided a significant injury and could return to action in Week 16. The rookie third-round pick has made 10 appearances this season, securing just one of seven targets for 10 yards across 62 offensive snaps.

Brown (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Denver, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Brown's return to a limited practice Friday puts him on track to avoid the inactive list approximately ahead of a 4:05 ET kickoff Sunday. While not much has gone right in Arizona this year, the Cards at least have a strong WR duo in Brown and DeAndre Hopkins to help out backup QB Colt McCoy. With top cornerback Patrick Surtain likely to shadow Hopkins for at least part of the game, Brown figures to run a lot of his routes lined up across from rookie Damarri Mathis and 31-year-old K'Waun Williams (both have been solid this year, but not on Surtain's level).

Jeudy is set to be the Broncos' featured wide receiver Sunday against the Cardinals with both Courtland Sutton (hamstring) and Kendall Hinton (hamstring) ruled out for the contest, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

While Jeudy should have his fill of targets, they won't be coming from Russell Wilson, as the quarterback remains in the concussion protocol and has been ruled out for Week 15 action. Instead, Jeudy will be operating with Brett Rypien, who has managed just 5.6 yards per attempt on 96 passes across six career appearances. Still, Jeudy currently is on a nice two-game run, which has amounted to 12 catches (on 13 targets) for 138 yards and three touchdowns, with all three scores coming last Sunday versus the Chiefs.

Moore is poised to be among the Texans' leading pass catchers Sunday against the Chiefs with Brandin Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) sidelined for a second straight game.

After combining for a 27-314-2 line on 40 targets through his first 11 appearances of the season, Moore took on a larger role last Sunday in Dallas, turning a season-high snap share (80 percent) into 10 catches (on 11 targets) for 124 yards. That came against the Cowboys' stingy pass defense, and he'll now line up versus Kansas City's 22nd-ranked unit (235.5 yards per game). Perhaps the biggest question mark surrounding Moore is who will be throwing him passes, as Davis Mills and Jeff Driskel had a 50/50 split of the QB snaps Week 14.

Collins (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

The same goes for Brandin Cooks (calf) , which sets the stage for Chris Moore, Phillip Dorsett and Amari Rodgers to continue to lead the Texans' wideout corps this weekend. Collins will now target a potential return to action in Week 16 against the Titans.

Cooks (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chiefs.

With Nico Collins (foot) also having been ruled out, Chris Moore, Phillip Dorsett and Amari Rodgers are in line to serve as Houston's top three receivers once again this weekend. Cooks' next chance to return to action will arrive a week from Saturday against the Titans.

Meyers (concussion) was present for the portion of Friday's practice open to the media, Mike Reiss of ESPN reports.

Meyers was limited Wednesday before failing to practice Thursday, and the extent of his participation Friday has yet to be clarified. New England's No. 1 wide receiver will need to clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol to suit up Sunday in Las Vegas.

McCloud caught one of three targets for 16 yards in Thursday's 21-13 win over Seattle.

McCloud was elevated to third on the receiver depth chart with Deebo Samuel (ankle) sidelined, but his offensive usage did not expand much with the elevated role. The return specialist combined for 84 return yards for fantasy league's that factor in that statistic. Samuel is likely to miss Week 16's contest against Washington, giving McCloud another shot to generate value as a cheap DFS flier against the Commanders next Saturday.

Coach Andy Reid said Friday that he's leaning against playing Hardman (abdomen) in Sunday's game against the Texans, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.

Reid added that Hardman had a good week of practice after being designated to return from injured reserve. Given Reid's comments Friday, there's a decent chance Hardman has a lesser-than-usual role even if the team does activate him from IR before the deadline Saturday afternoon.

Cooks (calf) isn't expected to play Sunday against the Chiefs, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston.

Cooks returned to a limited practice Thursday, but it appears as though the Texans may err on the side of caution with the veteran wideout this weekend. Also not expected to play Sunday, per Wilson, are fellow WR Nico Collins (foot) and RB Dameon Pierce.
