Coutee (foot) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Ravens, Aaron Wilson of The Houston Chronicle reports.

The 23-year-old receiver was held out for Houston's Week 1 matchup against the reigning Super Bowl champions, as he had dealt with a stress fracture in his foot throughout training camp. Coutee has since shown enough to trainers to earn his way onto the field, though his role may be reduced from the one he filled the past two years. Coutee earned 5.1 targets per game between 2018 and 2019, but with Brandin Cooks and Randall Cobb joining the receiving corps on top of Will Fuller and Kenny Stills, Coutee may be hard-pressed to match that workload.

Cooks (quadriceps) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Ravens.

The speedy wideout played through his quad injury back on Sept. 10 in the Texans' Week 1 loss to the Chiefs. In the process, Cooks was on the field for 31 out of the Texans' 59 snaps on offense, en route to catching two of his five targets for 20 yards. With his injury having had some extra time to mend, Cooks seems likely to see more snaps in Week 2, albeit while up against a Baltimore defense that was dominant in last weekend's 38-6 win over Cleveland.

Moore (coach's decision) will be inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs, per the Chargers' official Twitter account.

The 25-year-old receiver has now been scratched from the lineup in both Weeks 1 and 2, after making 10 appearances last year as an undrafted rookie. As Moore sits out another game, Jalen Guyton, K.J. Hill and Joe Reed will see snaps behind Los Angeles' top wideouts Keenan Allen and Mike Williams.

Shepard won't return to Sunday's contest in Chicago due to a toe injury, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

Shepard got hurt late in the first half, limping to the sideline and reaching at his left foot before limping to the locker room, per Leonard. After attempting to run a route on the Giants' first play of the third quarter, Shepard again made a visit to the locker room, and the team ruled him out a short time later. He'll end Week 2 with two receptions (on four targets) for 29 yards and one six-yard carry. With Shepard out, the Giants will turn to Darius Slayton, Golden Tate, Damion Ratley and C.J. Board to handle WR reps.

Shepard picked up a toe injury during Sunday's contest at Chicago.

The Giants already lost lead back Saquon Barkley to a knee injury, and now the team's No. 1 wide receiver has a health concern. The potential exists for Shepard to return, but in the meantime position mates Darius Slayton, Golden Tate, Damion Ratley and C.J. Board will hold down the fort.

Perriman was forced out of Sunday's game against the 49ers with an ankle injury, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

This is another big hit to a Jets' pass-catching corps already without Jamison Crowder (hamstring). Added snaps and targets are now available for both Chris Hogan and Braxton Berrios.

Campbell was carted off the field with an apparent knee injury during Sunday's game versus the Vikings, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

The injury occurred early in the first quarter of Sunday's game. Campbell struggled with an assortment of injuries in his rookie 2019 season, and this could be another potentially serious issue.

The Browns have had no plans or discussions about trading Beckham this season, a source familiar with the situation tells Adam Schefter of ESPN. "It's totally not true," the source said. "No idea where anyone would have gotten that."

After Beckham managed three receptions for 22 yards on 10 targets in the Browns' blowout loss to the Ravens in Week 1, outside speculation mounted about Cleveland potentially looking to move the wideout elsewhere, but there apparently wasn't any truth to those rumors. Beckham bounced back in Thursday's win over the Bengals (four receptions for 74 yards and a touchdown), and at this point, the Browns remain committed to seeing if the wideout can continue to build chemistry with 2018 No. 1 overall pick Baker Mayfield. Including the current season, Beckham has four years at annual average salary of $15 million remaining on the contract extension he signed with the Giants in 2018 before being dealt to the Browns last offseason.

Ateman (undisclosed) was placed on the practice squad injured list Saturday.

Ateman didn't make the team's final roster following training camp, and now he won't be able to practice as he rehabs from an undisclosed injury. If the Raiders need another receiver on the active roster, Keelan Doss will likely be the first call.

Thomas remains out for Monday's game against the Raiders, but his left high-ankle sprain is healing quicker than expected, Jay Glazer reported on "Fox NFL Sunday."

Thomas's availability for next week's game against the Packers remains in question, but there's at least a glimmer of hope for the near future. The Saints are expected to rely on Alvin Kamara, Emmanuel Sanders and Jared Cook as their primary pass catchers Week 2.
