Osborn reverted to the Titans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Osborn was elevated to the active roster prior to Sunday's 27-24 loss to Cleveland. He failed to record any stats during the contest while playing three snaps with the special-teams unit. The wide receiver can be elevated two more times before the Titans would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

Brown hauled in all three targets for 57 yards during Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Steelers.

Brown had the most productive game of his NFL career thus far, catching more passes than he had in his previous five appearances combined. The 2026 No. 190 overall pick should continue to get consistent work on special teams. However, despite the recent uptick in offensive snaps, it's unknown if Brown will continue to be more involved as a pass-catcher moving forward.

Cooks caught one of three targets for 13 yards during Sunday's 29-20 loss to Atlanta.

Cooks was in line to serve as the 49ers' top wide receiver for Week 7 due to the absences of Mike Evans (Achilles) and Deebo Samuel (hamstring). Cooks' 45 offensive snaps were second-most among 49ers wideouts behind Jordan Watkins (50), although the former had only once catch to show for his extra playing time, which didn't happen until the final minute of the fourth quarter. Cooks has three catches on seven targets for 33 yards and a touchdown over his last three games, but his role could shrink significantly following the 49ers' Week 8 bye depending on the statuses of Evans, Samuel and Demarcus Robinson (ankle, IR).

Johnson reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Johnson played eight offensive snaps for the Steelers in Sunday's win over the Saints. The wide receiver did not appear in the box score. Johnson has one practice squad elevation remaining before the team must promote him to the active roster to suit up for game day.

Cowing caught three of five passes for 38 yards, added a 10-yard carry and returned one kickoff for 28 yards during Sunday's 29-20 loss to the Falcons.

Cowing and the other 49ers pass catchers operated in expanded roles Sunday due to the absences of both Mike Evans (Achilles) and Deebo Samuel (hamstring). Cowing was on the field for 26 of the 49ers' 66 offensive snaps (39.4 percent), which was third-most behind Jordan Watkins (50) and Brandin Cooks (45). Cowing put up season highs in catches, receiving yards and rushing yards, but his role could shrink significantly following the 49ers' Week 8 bye depending on the statuses of Evans, Samuel and Demarcus Robinson (ankle, IR), with rookie second-rounder De'Zhaun Stribling (ankle, IR) not expected back until December, per David Lombardi of SFStandard.com.

Allen caught all three of his targets for 31 yards during Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Vikings.

Allen was held to his fewest catches, receiving yards and targets since Week 2 as the Colts struggled to establish a passing attack against Minnesota's impressive defense. The wide receiver still led the team in all three categories, and he'll have a chance for better production in Week 8 versus the Jaguars.

Hyatt reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Hyatt's first elevation of the 2026 season resulted in three offensive snaps and six special-teams snaps in the Giants' overtime win against the Texans on Sunday. The wide receiver has two 53-man roster elevations remaining.

Tillman reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Tillman was elevated to the active roster for the third week in a row before Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Steelers in Paris. The wide receiver didn't log any stats while playing one snap on offense and five snaps with the special-teams unit. Tillman will now have to be officially signed to the active roster in order to play in another contest with New Orleans this season.

Williams caught three passes on as many targets for 47 yards and turned two carries into four yards during the Packers' 20-17 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Quarterback Jordan Love spread the ball around Sunday to eight different receivers, and Williams was one of five pass catchers to record at least three receptions. Williams finished fourth on the team in receiving yards, with two of his catches going for 27 and 20 yards in the first and second quarters, respectively. The second-year pro is cemented as the Packers' WR3 behind Christian Watson and Matthew Golden, and tight end Tucker Kraft is also in the mix for looks from Love. The Packers will head back to Lambeau Field and practice on a short week for Thursday night's game against the Panthers, whose defense ranks sixth in the NFL in passing yards allowed per game (195.7) and fifth in passing touchdowns allowed (seven).

Watson reverted to the Chiefs' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Watson was elevated to the active roster for a second week in a row ahead of Sunday night's 20-3 loss to the Seahawks. The wide receiver reeled in his only target for seven yards while playing five snaps on offense and two snaps with the special-teams unit. The Chiefs can elevate Watson one more time before the team would have to officially sign him to the active roster.
