  • Xavier Weaver WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Xavier Weaver: Won't play Week 10

    Weaver (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

    An ankle issue limited Weaver in practice during Week 10 prep, and the injury is severe enough for him to be sidelined for Sunday's NFC West tilt. Greg Dortch will serve as the Cardinals' primary returner on kickoffs and punts in Weaver's absence.

  • Darius Slayton WR | NYG

    Giants' Darius Slayton: Injures hamstring Sunday

    Slayton suffered a hamstring injury during Sunday's game at Chicago, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Slayton went to the locker room in the second quarter before the Bears deemed him questionable to return. At the time of his exit, he'd notched three catches (on three targets) for 85 yards. The Giants currently are left with Wan'Dale Robinson, Ray-Ray McCloud, Gunner Olszewski and Jalin Hyatt as their available and healthy wide receivers.

  • Colts' Michael Pittman: Limited to two catches Sunday

    Pittman brought in both targets for 19 yards in the Colts' 31-25 overtime win over the Falcons in Berlin on Sunday.

    Tyler Warren and Alec Pierce served as Daniel Jones' top two targets Sunday, leaving Pittman in an unfamiliar tertiary role. The veteran's yardage total was a season-low figure, as was his target tally, but the quiet performance can very comfortably be labeled an outlier considering Pittman's typical body of work. Pittman should be in line for a much busier afternoon in a Week 12 road showdown against the Chiefs following a Week 11 bye.

  • Alec Pierce WR | IND

    Colts' Alec Pierce: Gets into end zone in win

    Pierce brought in four of seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 31-25 overtime victory against the Falcons in Berlin on Sunday.

    Pierce finished second in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Colts behind Tyler Warren while also catching Daniel Jones' one touchdown pass of the day from 37 yards out in the first quarter. It was the fourth-year pro's first score of the season, and Pierce now has at least 69 receiving yards in four consecutive contests. The 2022 second-round pick is enjoying his most consistent season yet, as he heads into the Week 11 bye having already posted a 28-585-1 receiving line through eight games with 10 catches of 20-plus yards.

  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Another TD in Week 10 loss

    London caught six of eight targets for 104 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-25 overtime loss to the Colts. He added a two-point conversion.

    No other Falcons pass catcher hauled in more than two passes or gained more than 38 yards, as London continues to be Michael Penix's only reliable downfield option. Sunday marked the fourth time in his last five games that London has topped 100 receiving yards, and he's up to six TDs in nine games, including four in the last two weeks. The fourth-year wideout will look to keep rolling in Week 11 against the Panthers, a team he's scored four touchdowns against in seven career meetings.

  • Hunter Renfrow WR | CAR

    Panthers' Hunter Renfrow: Healthy scratch Sunday

    Renfrow (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Saints, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    The wide receiver is now a healthy scratch for the fourth consecutive week as Carolina continues to ride a receiving corps led by Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker. Renfrow has 15 catches for 89 yards and two scores in six games this season.

  • Panthers' Brycen Tremayne: Inactive Sunday

    Tremayne (hip) is inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Saints, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

    The wide receiver popped up on the injury report Thursday, when had to miss practice, but he upgraded to full participation the next day. With Hunter Renfrow a healthy scratch for Sunday, the Panthers are riding with Tetairoa McMillan, Xavier Legette, Jalen Coker, Jimmy Horn and Dan Chisena as their wide receivers. Tremayne has 10 catches for 116 yards and no touchdowns on the year.

  • Allen Lazard WR | NYJ

    Jets' Allen Lazard: Not suiting up Sunday

    Lazard (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    While the Jets will make the newly acquired Adonai Mitchell a healthy inactive for Week 10 as he gets up to speed with a new playbook, the return of top wideout Garrett Wilson (knee) from a two-game absence will leave no room in the receiver corps for Lazard on Sunday. Unless injuries to other wideouts on the roster chip away at New York's depth, the veteran Lazard could find himself as a regular on the inactive list in the second half of the season as the 1-7 Jets play out the string and open up more opportunities for their younger receivers.

  • Jets' Adonai Mitchell: Won't make team debut Sunday

    Mitchell (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Though he could have a chance to carve out a meaningful role in the second half of the season in a Jets receiving corps lacking in quality options beyond No. 1 wideout Garrett Wilson, Mitchell will get more time to get up to speed with a new playbook after he was acquired from the Colts on Tuesday as part of the deal that sent star cornerback Sauce Gardner to Indianapolis. With the Jets making both Mitchell and Allen Lazard healthy inactives for Week 10, the team will be left with Wilson, Tyler Johnson, Arian Smith, John Metchie and Isaiah Williams as its available receivers.

  • Garrett Wilson WR | NYJ

    Jets' Garrett Wilson: Returning from two-game absence

    Wilson (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Browns.

    Though Wilson ended up taking a questionable tag into the weekend, he never seemed to be at much risk of missing a third straight game coming out of the Jets' Week 9 bye after he turned in limited practices Wednesday and Thursday before upgrading to full activity Friday. Wilson isn't expected to face any restrictions Sunday and should step back in as the No. 1 target for quarterback Justin Fields, who is set to continue directing the offense in Week 10, despite head coach Aaron Glenn electing not to formally name a starting quarterback following Friday's practice.
