Agholor (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jets after practicing in a limited fashion this week.

In Monday's 33-14 loss to the Bears, Agholor logged just three of a possible 52 snaps on offense, which allowed rookie Tyquan Thornton to see added opportunities. This weekend, Kendrick Bourne is slated to rejoin the team's receiver mix, a context that clouds Agholor's fantasy upside, given that Jakobi Meyers and DeVante Parker are also candidates to see their share of targets.

The 49ers list Jennings (hamstring) as questionable for Sunday's game against the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Jennings didn't practice in any fashion Wednesday or Thursday, but the fact that he'll take a questionable tag into the weekend rather than being ruled out for Sunday's contest suggests that he may have demonstrated progress on some level at Friday's practice. If Jennings is able to overcome his hamstring injury and suit up Sunday, he'll be one of several 49ers pass catchers who will be tasked with replacing some of the vacated target volume that would have gone to No. 1 wideout Deebo Samuel (hamstring), who won't play against the Rams.

Bourne (toe) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets after practicing fully Friday.

Bourne, who didn't play this past Monday against the Bears, logged limited sessions Wednesday and Thursday before practicing fully Friday. The wideout is thus slated to suit up this weekend, though given his 11-156-0 receiving line on 14 targets through six games to date, he's not a high-percentage fantasy option.

Samuel (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Samuel didn't practice at all this week and now has a chance to get more rest with the 49ers heading on bye Week 9. As for Sunday, Samuel's absence increased the target projections for Brandon Aiyuk, George Kittle and Christian McCaffrey, while the vacated wideout snaps should go to some combination of Ray-Ray McCloud, Jauan Jennings (questionable, hamstring) and Danny Gray. For Samuel, the next chance to play is Nov. 13 against the Chargers.

The Seahawks list Lockett as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants with hamstring and ribs injuries, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

The rib issue may be the greater concern for Lockett at this juncture, as the wideout was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice due to the hamstring injury before returning to full activity Thursday. With the Seahawks now attaching the rib injury to Lockett's name ahead of Friday's practice, fantasy managers will now need to keep a close eye on reports pertaining to the wideout ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff. If Lockett gains clearance for the Week 8 matchup, he could have a clear path to being Geno Smith's No. 1 target; DK Metcalf (knee) is also listed as questionable but hasn't practiced this week and appears unlikely to play.

Metcalf (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, though he doesn't appear likely to play, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Tyler Lockett (knee) also is listed as questionable, but he's expected to play after managing a limited practice Wednesday and a full session Thursday. Metcalf, on the other hand, seems like a long shot to suit up, having suffered a patellar tendon injury in last week's win over the Chargers. While the Seahawks are optimistic he'll avoid an extended absence, Metcalf should probably be viewed as closer to doubtful ahead of Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, with risk of a limited role in the event he does suit up.

Bell (ankle) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Mark Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Bell's return to full practice participation suggests the rookie wide receiver should be available when the Browns face the Bengals on Halloween. The third-round pick out of Purdue is still searching for his first NFL touchdown and has only seven catches through seven games.

The Texans list Cooks as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans due to a wrist injury.

Cooks' injury designation heading into the weekend comes as a surprise, as he wasn't included on the Texans' injury report until Friday. Even then, Cooks was a full participant in Houston's final practice of the week, so he may not have made the Texans aware of the injury until after the session concluded. Whatever the case, Cooks' status now warrants monitoring heading into Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff. The Texans also list fellow wideout Nico Collins (groin) as questionable, but he looks less likely to play than Cooks after failing to practice in any capacity this week.

Watson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Buffalo.

The rookie was a limited practice participant Wednesday through Friday, with head coach Matt LaFleur saying at the end of the week that he's "cautiously optimistic" about Watson playing, per Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. If he suits up ahead of the 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff Sunday, Watson presumably would slot in somewhere behind Romeo Doubs and Sammy Watkins on the depth chart, unlikely to handle a three-down role even with Allen Lazard (shoulder) ruled out.

Collins (groin) didn't practice Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Titans.

Collins was unable to practice at all throughout the week, so he'll likely need to progress substantially to play come Sunday. Given that context, it's no surprise that the Texans don't expect Collins to play, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. If Collins is out or limited, Phillip Dorsett will likely take on a larger role against the pedestrian Titans secondary. Dorsett got into the end zone after Collins got hurt in the Week 7 loss to the Raiders.
