Harry (concussion) was spotted on the field at Wednesday's practice, Jim McBride of The Boston Globe reports.

Harry has missed back-to-back games while recovering from a concussion. His presence at Wednesday's walk-through session is at least somewhat encouraging, though the Patriots' official injury report will reveal whether Harry actually progressed enough to resume participating on at least a limited basis.

Godwin said Wednesday that he still has pins in his surgically-repaired finger, but he expects to have them removed soon, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Godwin missed one game after undergoing surgery, but he made it back for Sunday's 38-3 loss to New Orleans and caught three of six targets for 41 yards while playing 94 percent of the offensive snaps. He should be set for another full workload Week 10 at Carolina, competing for targets in an offense that also has Mike Evans, Antonio Brown and Rob Gronkowski.

Shepard was listed as a limited participant for Wednesday's walk-through practice with toe and hip injuries, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

The Giants have listed Shepard as a limited participant in every practice since he came off injured reserve prior to a Week 7 loss to Philadelphia. He's seen at least 70 percent of snaps and eight targets in three straight games, averaging 6.7 catches for 57.3 yards during that stretch. There's no indication Shepard is in danger of missing a rematch with the Eagles on Sunday.

Duvernay lost a yard on his only carry during Sunday's 24-10 win over Indianapolis.

For the first time in his career, Duvernay failed to draw a target while Baltimore leaned heavily on his rushing attack. The rookie third-round pick was listed as questionable with a thigh injury before suiting up, and he did still contribute on kick returns, so it's possible that the Ravens were simply trying to preserve Duvernay's health by lessening his workload. He'll look to get back on track Week 10 against the Patriots.

Boykin caught his only target for 11 yards during Sunday's 24-10 win over the Colts.

Boykin played a season-low 36 percent of snaps Week 9. The second-year pro has yet to account for 40 receiving yards in a game this year, and he hasn't drawn five or more targets since Week 2. Boykin's role may only grow smaller in the weeks to come if the recently signed Dez Bryant stays healthy and proves deserving of more work.

Snead secured all four of his targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 24-10 win over the Colts.

Snead had five catches for 106 yards against Pittsburgh in Week 9, but he unsurprisingly fell back to earth in Indianapolis. The veteran slot man has only eclipsed 50 receiving yards twice this season, and he's only drawn five or more targets on once occasion. While he'll still see regular playing time at New England in Week 10, Snead should be considered a fairly low-ceiling fantasy option.

Washington re-signed Brown to the practice squad Wednesday.

Brown had a stint on the practice squad earlier this year before being promoted to the active roster, but he didn't record any offensive statistics during his only appearance (Week 7 versus Dallas). The undrafted rookie out of Colorado will work to continue progressing in his development.

Hollins could be an option to enter the starting lineup after fellow wideout Preston Williams (foot) was placed on injured reserve Wednesday, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.

Hollins made the most of his opportunity after Williams was forced out of last weekend's win over the Cardinals, turning his first target of the season into a touchdown. Jakeem Grant may be a likelier candidate to start across from DeVante Parker, though the Dolphins could also put a cap on his offensive reps in favor of keeping him fresh for return duties. Malcolm Perry and Lynn Bowden could also push Hollins for the No. 3 role as long as Williams is sidelined.

Grant is expected to handle a regular starting role for the Dolphins after the team placed Preston Williams (foot) on injured reserve Wednesday, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.

Grant drew five targets while playing just 48 percent of offensive snaps during last weekend's win over the Cardinals, but his opportunities opposite No. 1 wideout DeVante Parker. Along with Grant, Mack Hollins, who caught a touchdown against Arizona, will see more action in three-wide sets, while rookies Lynn Bowden, Malcolm Perry and Kirk Merritt could also receive increased reps.

McKenzie reeled in his only target for a 25-yard score in Sunday's win over Seattle. He also rushed once for a yard.

The speedster is far down in the pecking order and hasn't even served as a return man since the Bills added Andre Roberts to the fold last season. The Bills are also employing less jet sweeps this year, which was McKenzie's specialty in 2019 -- he's only rushed five times for five yards in 2020 and the team seems more comfortable letting Josh Allen or rookie Zack Moss try to take it in from up close lately. The Bills like keeping McKenzie around, however, even in a minimal mix-it-up role, and he does have two scores this season.
