Brown (foot), officially listed as questionable, is expected to play Sunday against the Panthers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Brown was added to the injury report Friday, though he still managed a limited session. While that casts some doubt over his status Sunday, he appears probable to suit up. Kyler Murray is likely to look Brown's way quite often, as A.J. Green (knee) has been ruled out and DeAndre Hopkins (suspension) remains sidelined.

Gray (hip) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Rams, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.

Gray was unable to practice at all during the week, so it's likely he will miss the 49ers' Week 4 divisional showdown. He has been active for two of three games to this point and played a combined 13 offensive snaps while commanding two targets.

Covey was signed to the Eagles' active roster Saturday.

Covey has yet to log an offensive snap, but he has served as one of the Eagles' primary punt returners through three games this season. He has tallied 61 total yards on 10 returns in that role.

Baccellia was elevated to the active roster Saturday for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

If active Sunday, Baccellia will have played in each of the Cardinals' first four games. He has tallied two receptions in each of the last two contests, totaling 25 total yards. With A.J. Green (knee) ruled out, Baccellia could serve a depth role among Arizona's receiving corps again.

Moore (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Panthers, is expected to be available, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

This seemed to be the obvious course after Moore was able to practice on multiple occasions this week, but the status of the second-year receiver is all the more important given Marquise Brown (foot) appeared on the injury report Friday and the likes of Antoine Wesley (hip) and A.J. Green (knee) still remain out. Fantasy managers should at least stay tuned to the status of Moore leading up to Sunday's 4:05 p.m. ET kickoff in case information leaks regarding the second-round pick playing on a snap count.

Valdes-Scantling (abdomen), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's prime-time matchup against the Buccaneers, is expected to play, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.

Valdes-Scantling was able to practice in limited fashion Friday, which seemed to indicate he'd be available to play, and it appears since that point things have been positive in terms of his status for Sunday. Expect the Chiefs to officially confirm the news closer to the aforementioned 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Chark (ankle) has been downgraded to out and will not play in Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks.

Coach Dan Campbell hinted Friday that Chark would be able to play, but evidently the veteran's ankle injury was too difficult to overcome. The Lions will now be without three of their top offensive options with D'Andre Swift (shoulder), Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) and Chark all inactive. Expect Josh Reynolds and Kalif Raymond to see the majority of the snaps at wide receiver with tight end T.J. Hockenson and running back Jamaal Williams chipping in as capable mid-range targets.

The Broncos have brought Hinton back up to their active roster ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Raiders, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Hinton has now been elevated from the practice squad for the third week in a row. He logged 29 offensive snaps in Week 3 and recorded one reception for a 27-yard gain. He figures to see a similar workload in Las Vegas.

Bandy was elevated to the Chargers' active roster Saturday.

A preseason standout for the Chargers, Bandy will make his first appearance on the 53-man roster with Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Jalen Guyton (knee) both out. The 5-foot-10 wideout likely won't see many snaps unless more injuries topple the top of the Chargers' wide receiving corps.

Beasley was elevated to the Buccaneers' active roster Saturday, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

This comes as no surprise given the Buccaneers are still dealing with a litany of injuries at wide receiver. While Beasley played only nine offensive snaps last week against the Packers, he did catch three of his four targets for 12 yards, with two of those receptions nearly going for first downs. Beasley is eligible to elevated via the practice squad one more time before the Buccaneers will need to make a choice on whether or not to add him to the 53-man roster.
