Van Jefferson WR | WAS
Rams' Van Jefferson: Quiet outing against Giants
Jefferson caught three of his four targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 38-11 win over New York.
There haven't been enough targets left over for Jefferson after Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods, Tyler Higbee and Darrell Henderson all receive their share, and It's unlikely Jefferson garners more looks in the immediate future, either. Additionally, deep-threat DeSean Jackson will continue in his role. It will probably take an injury to a fellow pass catcher for Jefferson to see an uptick in target volume, and he projects to remain an inconsistent fantasy asset in the meantime.

Tyrie Cleveland WR | IND
Tyrie Cleveland: Returns to practice squad
Cleveland reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Cleveland was a gameday elevation for Sunday's loss to the Ravens, and he played 10 snaps on offense and 13 on special teams, recording one tackle. The 2020 seventh-round pick caught six passes for 63 yards as a rookie last year, but he is without a catch through two appearances in 2021.

Josh Reynolds WR | NYJ
Titans' Josh Reynolds: Healthy scratch for MNF
Reynold (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Bills.
Reynolds caught his only target for eight yards during Week 5 and now is a healthy scratch versus Buffalo. Marcus Johnson and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine will operate as Tennessee's depth options at wide receiver.

A.J. Brown WR | NE
Titans' A.J. Brown: Suiting up Monday
Brown (illness) is listed as active Monday against the Bills.
Brown was added to the Titans' injury report Sunday as questionable for Week 6 with an illness. It won't be enough to keep him off the field, though, as he makes his fifth appearance in six games this season. Brown has only mustered a 10-130-1 receiving line on 25 targets this season, and he may have a tough time producing Monday versus a Buffalo defense that has surrendered a league-low 5.1 yards per target to wide receivers this season.

Michael Gallup WR | WAS
Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Could return to practice in Week 8
Coach Mike McCarthy relayed that he's "hopeful" Gallup (calf) will resume practicing in a limited fashion in advance of the Cowboys' Oct. 31 contest versus the Vikings, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
The Cowboys will be on bye Week 7, but it looks like Gallup could be designated to return from IR leading up to Week 8 action. With that in mind, the wideout is worth adding by fantasy managers with roster flexibility in leagues where he's been cut loose. Gallup has been sidelined since straining his left calf during Dallas' season opener against Tampa Bay.

Kadarius Toney WR | CLE
Giants' Kadarius Toney: More tests on tap
Giants head coach Joe Judge said Toney aggravated his existing ankle injury in Sunday's 38-11 loss to the Rams and will undergo further testing Monday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Despite being limited in practice all of last week with the injury and taking a questionable designation into Sunday, Toney suited up against the Rams and was on his way to a productive day with three catches for 36 yards before being ruled out shortly after tweaking the ankle following his sixth snap of the contest. Toney's upcoming tests should shed more light on the extent of his injury, but even if he gets good news, it wouldn't be surprising if the Giants took a conservative approach with working him back into the mix. New York is set to host the Panthers in Week 7.

A.J. Brown WR | NE
Titans' A.J. Brown: Slated to play Monday
Brown (illness) is in line to be available for Monday night's game against the Bills, John Glennon of BroadwaySportsMedia.com reports.
Per Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site, the wideout was added to the team's Week 6 injury report Sunday and listed as questionable for Monday's contest due to an illness. Official confirmation of Brown's status will arrive upon the release of inactives prior to Tennessee's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff, but it looks like the Titans will have both of of their top wideouts available versus Buffalo, with Julio Jones (hamstring) poised to return to action.

Deon Cain WR | BUF
Deon Cain: Signs with Philly
Cain was signed to the Eagles' practice squad Monday.
Cain had a workout with the Eagles in September and will now join the team's practice squad. The 2018 sixth-round pick has appeared in 15 games between the Colts and Steelers and has caught nine passes for 124 yards.

Odell Beckham Jr. WR | MIN
Browns' Odell Beckham: Projected DNP in practice
The Browns listed Beckham (shoulder) as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, Nate Ulrich of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Beckham picked up the shoulder injury at some point during Sunday's 37-14 loss to the Cardinals, with the wideout playing 54 percent of the offensive snaps in the contest and finishing with five receptions for 79 yards on eight targets. Head coach Kevin Stefanski didn't go into much detail regarding the extent of Beckham's injury, and the wideout could be at risk of missing a Thursday night matchup with the Broncos in Week 7.

Ihmir Smith-Marsette WR | ARI
Vikings' Ihmir Smith-Marsette: Sits out Week 6
Smith-Marsette was inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Panthers, Craig Peters of the Vikings' official website reports.
Smith-Marsette was dealing with a toe injury throughout the week, but he was able to log full practices Thursday and Friday before being ruled inactive for Week 6. The 22-year-old wideout should be ready to go when the Vikings return from their bye for a matchup with the Cowboys on Oct. 31.
