Miller (toe) won't be activated from injured reserve prior to Sunday's game against Washington, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Coach Bruce Arians recently expressed optimism that Miller would be able to suit up against Washington, but the receiver will miss at least one more game due to turf toe. He resumed practicing Nov. 2, so it appears somewhat likely that he'll return to game action for the team's Week 11 matchup against the Giants on Nov. 22.

Dortch was elevated to the Cardinals' active roster from their practice squad Saturday.

With DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) and Rondale Moore (concussion) both questionable, Dortch will join the Cardinals' roster for the second consecutive game to provide depth at wide receiver. He played just four offensive snaps in Week 9, so Dortch's role will likely remain limited Sunday against the Panthers.

The Titans signed Fitzpatrick to their active roster Saturday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Fitzpatrick began the season on Tennessee's practice squad, but he'll provide depth at wide receiver after Julio Jones (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve. The rookie hauled in 43 of 72 targets for 833 yards and three touchdowns in his senior season at Louisville.

Godwin (foot) is expected to play Sunday against the Buccaneers, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Fantasy managers will still want to check in on Godwin's status ahead of the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, but this is certainly good news considering some speculated the elevation of Breshad Perriman from the practice squad indicated the fleet-footed Godwin would be unable to play Sunday. The Buccaneers are already without Antonio Brown (foot) and Rob Gronkowski (back) and didn't choose to remove Scotty Miller (toe) from injured reserve, so expect a heavy dose of Mike Evans, Tyler Johnson and Godwin in the event the latter is officially active against Washington.

Perriman will be elevated from Tampa Bay's practice squad to play against Washington on Sunday, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Perriman's back on the Buccaneers team with which he spent the 2019 season, though his second stint in Tampa Bay may only last a week. He'll provide some extra depth for a receiving corps that will be depleted by injuries in Week 10 -- Antonio Brown (ankle) has been ruled out, while Chris Godwin (foot) is questionable.

Sims was elevated from Pittsburgh's practice squad Saturday.

Sims will provide some depth at wide receiver with Chase Claypool (toe) sidelined Sunday against the Lions. The 24-year-old Sims has 28 NFL appearances under his belt, all with Washington, totaling 61 catches and five touchdowns in those games.

Olszewski (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns.

With Olszewski sidelined, J.J. Taylor will likely take over as the return man on punts and kickoffs. Taylor could see a more prominent role in the Patriots backfield as well, as starting running back Damien Harris has also been ruled out due to a concussion.

Gallup (calf) was activated off injured reserve Saturday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Gallup is now set to make his return after missing the last seven games with a left calf strain. The 25-year-old will immediately slide in as the third receiver alongside stalwarts Amari Cooper and CeeDee Lamb, pushing Cedrick Wilson to the WR4 role.

Beckham (shoulder) has passed his physical and will play Monday against the 49ers, NFL insider Jordan Schultz reports.

Beckham's role Monday may be limited since he's still familiarizing himself with the Rams' playbook, but at least he'll be able to take the field and make his Rams debut. He won't be joined by fellow wide receiver Robert Woods, as Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Woods tore his ACL in practice Friday and will miss the remainder of the season. As a result of Woods' injury, Beckham and Van Jefferson will both take on full-time starting roles on the outside once Beckham's up to speed, with Cooper Kupp working in his customary slot position.

Jefferson should take on a larger role in the Rams' offense moving forward, as Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that fellow wide receiver Robert Woods will miss the remainder of the season after tearing his ACL in practice Friday.

Cooper Kupp will still be the go-to guy for quarterback Matthew Stafford, but there's no clear second option in Los Angeles' passing game, with Jefferson, newcomer Odell Beckham and tight end Tyler Higbee set to vie for that spot following Woods' injury. Jefferson could be especially busy in the coming weeks while Beckham's still catching up on the Rams' playbook.
