Smith (hamstring) was held out of Wednesday's practice, Dave Zangaro of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.

Smith hasn't logged any on-field work since playing 89 percent of snaps during a Week 11 win against the Commanders in which he hauled in four of six targets for 29 yards. So far, he's missed one game as a result of a hamstring injury, and his lack of activity to begin Week 13 prep isn't a great sign as the Eagles ramp up for Sunday's road showdown with the Ravens. Smith's listing on Eagles practice reports Thursday and Friday will be more revealing toward his chances to return to action this weekend.

Legette caught four of his six targets for 56 yards during Sunday's 30-27 loss versus the Chiefs.

Despite pacing Carolina's wide receivers in snaps in Week 12, Legette's six targets lagged behind teammate David Moore (10). His struggles reeling in targets also continued, as he dropped a well-placed deep ball from Bryce Young late in the fourth quarter. The Panthers will host a poor Buccaneers defense in Week 13.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said Wednesday that Tillman remains in the NFL's concussion protocol, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

Tillman suffered a concussion in last Thursday's win over the Steelers, but with the wideout still in the protocol, his status will need to be monitored as Monday's game against the Broncos approaches. More information on where Tillman stands in his recovery will come Thursday, when the Browns post their initial Week 13 injury report. If Tillman isn't cleared to play in Denver, Jamari Thrash and practice squad member Kadarius Toney would be candidate to pick up added snaps behind starting wideouts Jerry Jeudy and Elijah Moore.

Head coach Sean McDermott said that Coleman (wrist) will be a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Coleman, who last played Week 9, wasn't able to practice in any fashion in either of the ensuing two weeks, but coming out of the Bills' Week 12 bye, the wideout is slated to take some reps. The rookie's limited participation represents a step in the right direction, but he'll need to practice fully by Friday in order to approach Sunday's game against the 49ers without an injury designation.

Dulin (ankle) did not participate at the Colts' walkthrough practice Wednesday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

Dulin was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Lions early by an ankle injury, and now his availability for Week 13 is in jeopardy. He'll probably have to practice in some capacity Thursday or Friday to give himself a chance to play at New England.

The Lions are expected to place Raymond (foot) on injured reserve prior to Thursday's game against the Bears, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Raymond had been listed as a non-participant on the Lions' first two Week 13 practice reports, and head coach Dan Campbell intimated Tuesday that he wasn't confident the wideout would be ready to play Thanksgiving Day. Campbell also added that Raymond was scheduled to receive a second opinion on the foot injury he sustained in Sunday's win over the Colts, and the receiver's expected move to IR suggests the Lions weren't overly encouraged by his prognosis. On a positive note, Rapoport adds that Raymond is still expected to return for the playoffs at the very latest, and he might be ready to come off IR when first eligible in Week 17. Raymond's expected absence for the next few weeks should open more reps for Allen Robinson as the Lions' No. 4 receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee), Jameson Williams and Tim Patrick.

Johnson failed to secure his lone target in Monday's 30-23 win over the Chargers.

Johnson continued to be an afterthought in the Ravens offensive attack Monday, playing just six of the Ravens 65 offensive snaps. The veteran wideout has been held without a catch in three of his four games with the Ravens while playing just 37 total offensive snaps over that stretch. Johnson remains extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as he continues to acclimate to Baltimore's offense. The Ravens will host the Eagles in Week 13.

Bateman caught two of three targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 30-23 win over the Chargers.

Bateman's touchdown Monday was his fifth score of the season, as the wideout is having his best statistical season as a Raven. The veteran has recorded 35 catches for 574 yards and five touchdowns through the first 12 games of the 2024 campaign. Bateman's touchdown against the Chargers came on a 40-yard pass from quarterback Lamar Jackson late in the first half to give the Ravens a lead that they wouldn't surrender for the rest of the contest. Operating as the No. 2 receiver in one of the league's best offenses, the 24-year-old has the potential to be useful for fantasy purposes most weeks while averaging over four targets per game. Bateman will look to build off of his solid Week 12 performance on limited touches when the Ravens host the Eagles in Week 13.

Reagor caught two of four targets for 20 yards in Monday's 30-23 loss to the Ravens.

Reagor's four targets marked a season high for the wideout. With that said, the veteran played just 30 percent of the Chargers' offensive snaps as the team's No. 4 wide receiver behind Ladd McConkey, Quentin Johnston and Joshua Palmer. With few opportunities in the Chargers' offense, Reagor should not be trusted for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Falcons.

Johnston failed to secure any of his five targets in Monday's 30-23 loss to the Ravens.

After finding the end zone three straight weeks, Johnston came crashing back down to Earth on Monday. The 23-year-old wideout struggled with drops, an issue that has plagued him during his young career. Additionally, his 65 percent offensive snap share was his lowest in the past four games, while rookie receiver Ladd McConkey led all Los Angeles wideouts in snaps and receiving yards against Baltimore. Johnston has proven he can have an impact for fantasy purposes in recent weeks, but his potential to be a true alpha receiver continues to be in question. The TCU product will look to bounce back when the Chargers visit the Falcons in Week 13.
