Tyson (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

With Tyson having logged limited practices after the Saints opened his 21-day window to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Friday's designation gives the rookie a chance to make his long-awaited regular-season NFL debut. There's been no indication one way or the other on what the Saints' plans are for Tyson this week. Devaughn Vele and Bryce Lance would be the biggest losers in terms of playing time and targets once Tyson does debut.

Walker didn't garner a target in Thursday night's 33-10 loss to the Jaguars.

Walker made little impact in Thursday night's loss, playing 15 offensive snaps behind Ja'Kobi Lane (32), Rashod Bateman (35) and Zay Flowers (37). Walker will likely see a similar role as the season progresses.

Cooper and Adonai Mitchell will be the Jets' top wide receivers with Garrett Wilson (concussion) unavailable for Sunday's game at Kansas City, ESPN's Rich Cimini reports.

After back-to-back 100-yard games in his first two weeks off injured reserve, Cooper ran 26 routes last week without registering a target in the 38-33 loss to Las Vegas. Mitchell caught seven of nine targets for 142 yards and a touchdown, also running 26 routes, and Cimini's report notes that Mitchell "will become the No. 1 receiver" in Wilson's absence. Both Mitchell and Cooper figure to get plenty of snaps and routes, but targets and production aren't as assured.

Brown (knee) won't be available for Sunday's game against the Packers, Mark Daniels of Masslive.comreports.

Following a trio of consecutive DNPs, Brown is slated to sit out a second consecutive contest. In his absence, DeMario Douglas, Efton Chism and Kyle Williams are available to handle Week 9 duties, while Mack Hollins (calf) -- who has been designated to return from IR -- is a candidate to be activated this weekend, and if that occurs he could step into a key role in his return to the lineup. As for Brown's potential availability for the Patriots' Week 10 contest versus the Lions in Munich, coach Mike Vrabel indicated that he doesn't know yet, per Doug Kyed of the Boston Herald.

Cameron caught his only target for six yards in Thursday night's 33-10 victory over the Ravens.

Cameron didn't see the ball until the fourth quarter despite playing the third most snaps at wide receiver (25) for the Jaguars on Thursday, behind only Parker Washington (38) and Jakobi Meyers (38). This marks the third game in a row where the 23-year-old played as the Jaguars' No. 3 option at receiver, but his limited use keeps him as a low waiver wire add.

Bateman caught one of two targets for six yards in Thursday night's 33-10 loss to the Jaguars.

That's back-to-back one-catch games for Bateman with Joe Fagnano at quarterback for the Ravens. With Zay Flowers also healthy, Bateman has no fantasy appeal in season-long formats.

Smith (hamstring) was not seen at Friday's practice, Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

With Smith now absent from practice again Friday, he's unlikely to play Sunday against the Giants, leaving Makai Lemon, Darius Cooper and Hollywood Brown as the top wide receivers for QB Joe Milton's first start in an Eagles uniform. Dontayvion Wicks (ankle) was also absent from practice Friday and figures to join Smith on the gameday inactive list yet again.

Brown (calf) was injured in practice Friday, Martenzie Johnson of The Washington Sun reports.

Brown appears to have suffered a significant calf injury during Friday's practice. Commanders GM Adam Peters said the injury "doesn't look great." Brown signed with Washington over the offseason and has caught nine of 16 targets for 94 yards through 7 games.

Wicks (ankle) is not practicing Friday, Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com reports.

Wicks hasn't practiced at all this week and looks extremely unlikely to play Sunday against the Giants. With DeVonta Smith (hamstring) also injured, the Eagles will likely keep rolling with Makai Lemon and Darius Cooper as their every-down wideouts.

Nabers (knee) was catching passes during Friday's walkthrough and "should be 'good' to go" For Sunday's game against the Eagles, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.

After sitting out Thursday's practice due to the knee issue, Nabers appears to be trending in the right direction for Sunday's game at Philadelphia. Still, the Giants' final injury report will provide the clearest indication of whether the wide receiver takes a designation into the weekend.
