Kalif Raymond WR | DET
Lions' Kalif Raymond: Practices in full Wednesday
Raymond (cramps) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Raymond was forced out in the fourth quarter versus the Eagles in Week 10 due to cramps, and although Detroit hosted only a walkthrough practice Wednesday, the veteran wideout appears to have already returned to full health. Expect Raymond to handle his usual No. 3 receiver role behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams on Sunday against the Giants.

Darius Slayton WR | NYG
Giants' Darius Slayton: Still not practicing
Slayton (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Slayton hasn't mixed into any drills since he injured his hamstring during a Week 10 loss in Chicago, but he was spotted working on the side with the Giants' training staff at Wednesday's session, per Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Slayton will have two more chances this week to put himself in a position to potentially return to action Sunday at Detroit. At the moment, Wan'Dale Robinson, Isaiah Hodgins, Jalin Hyatt and Gunner Olszewski are the healthy wide receivers on the active roster.

Gould (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Gould hasn't played since Week 8 due to a knee injury, but coming off Indianapolis' bye he appears to have returned to full health. Expect the depth wideout to resume operating as the Colts' top return man when the team returns to action Sunday on the road against the Chiefs.

Tory Horton WR | SEA
Seahawks' Tory Horton: Won't practice Wednesday
Hornton (groin/shin) will not participate in Wednesday's practice, Brady Henderson of ESPN.com reports.
Horton has missed back-to-back games due to a pair of injuries, and he'll have just two more opportunities to get back on the field prior to Sunday's matchup against the Titans. Head coach Mike Macdonald said last Friday that a stint on IR could be in consideration for Horton, which indicates that he could miss multiple more weeks.

Elic Ayomanor WR | TEN
Titans' Elic Ayomanor: Not practicing
Ayomanor (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Chimere Dike (chest) is participating, after both he and Ayomanor suffered injuries during the second half of Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Titans. With Calvin Ridley (leg) out for the season, Van Jefferson should have a top-three role even if Ayomanor manages to play this Sunday against a tough Seattle defense.

Chimere Dike WR | TEN
Titans' Chimere Dike: Returns to practice
Dike (chest) returned to practice Wednesday, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.
Dike was evaluated for a head injury during Sunday's 16-13 loss to Houston, and while he cleared concussion protocol, he missed the rest of the game with a chest injury. A quick return to practice suggests he's on track to play Sunday against the Seahawks, whereas teammate Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) isn't practicing Wednesday. Fellow Titans wideout Calvin Ridley (leg) is out for the season, leaving Ayomanor, Dike and Van Jefferson as the top three wide receivers.

Kayshon Boutte WR | NE
Patriots' Kayshon Boutte: Practicing Wednesday
Boutte (hamstring) participated in practice Wednesday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.
Boutte was listed as limited last Monday through Wednesday before being ruled out for the Patriots' Week 11 win over the Jets. The team's upcoming injury report will clarify whether the wideout remains limited or is now practicing fully ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals.

Jha'Quan Jackson WR | NO
Jha'Quan Jackson: Finds work in New Orleans
Jackson signed with the Saints' practice squad Wednesday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
The second-year pro from Tulane was cut by the Titans in late August after failing to make the team's initial 53-man roster, but he's now found work in New Orleans. Jackson's last in-game action came with Tennessee in 2024, when he appeared in 12 games and caught one of three targets for eight yards across 166 total snaps (124 on special teams, 42 on offense).

Rashod Bateman WR | BAL
Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Sitting out practice Wednesday
Bateman (ankle) is not participating in Wednesday's practice, Giana Han of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Bateman has yet to practice since picking up an ankle sprain versus the Vikings in Week 10. The veteran wideout will have two more chances to retake the field ahead of Sunday's home matchup against the Jets. Bateman has surpassed 50 receiving yards in only two of his nine regular-season appearances so far, so even if he manages to gain clearance for Week 12, he'll remain off the fantasy radar in most formats.

Trent Sherfield WR | ARI
Trent Sherfield: Joins Cardinals' practice squad
Sherfield signed with the Cardinals' practice squad Wednesday.
The veteran wideout from Vanderbilt was cut by the Broncos on Saturday, but he's already found a new home in Arizona. Sherfield appeared in all of Denver's first 10 games this season, catching three of four targets for 21 yards across 311 total snaps (164 on offense, 147 on special teams). He could be added to the Cardinals' active roster at some point this season, especially with Marvin Harrison (appendix) currently sidelined.
