Shepard brought in four of seven targets for 42 yards in the Buccaneers' 26-23 overtime win over the Panthers on Sunday.

The veteran wideout tied Cade Otton for the second-most targets on the Bucs while also checking in as the runner-up to Mike Evans in receiving yards. Shepard has carved out a decent complementary niche in the Buccaneers' air attack, recording at least three catches and five targets in four of the last five games while eclipsing 40 receiving yards twice in that span. Shepard should continue drawing his fair share of one-time college teammate Baker Mayfield's attention in a Week 14 home matchup against the Raiders.

Treadwell reverted to Indianapolis' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Treadwell received his second elevation of the campaign for Sunday's matchup versus New England and tallied seven offensive snaps along with 12 special-teams snaps without recording any other stats. The veteran's opportunity was a result of Josh Downs sitting out due to a shoulder injury and Ashton Dulin missing the game due to an ankle issue. The Colts are on bye Week 14, which could give Downs and Dulin time to recover, in turn potentially lowering Treadwell's chance of receiving another elevation.

McMillan secured two of three targets for 25 yards in the Buccaneers' 26-23 overtime win over the Panthers on Sunday.

McMillan posted his third multi-catch tally in the last four games but still had minimal impact with his robust 76 percent snap share (61 snaps). The rookie has yet to take appreciable advantage of the opportunity afforded by Chris Godwin's season-ending ankle injury, and McMillan will have a tough matchup in a Week 14 home date with a Raiders defense that's allowed the sixth-fewest yards per completion in the NFL (9.5).

Cooks reverted to the Jaguars' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Cooks didn't record any stats while playing seven snaps on offense and four snaps on special teams in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Texans. The wide receiver can be elevated one more time before Jacksonville would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

Wayne reverted to the Texans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Wayne failed to garner any stats while playing 16 of the team's 63 offensive snaps and 15 snaps on special teams in Sunday's win over the Jaguars. The wide receiver can be elevated two more times before Houston would have to officially sign him to the active roster.

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

Pettis has received some run in New Orleans' offense the last three games due to the banged-up nature of the receiving corps, recording exactly one catch on each occasion. Overall, his 3-22-0 line on four targets during that span isn't much to write home about, and his snap share (20 percent) Sunday against the Rams was behind all of Marquez Valdes-Scantling (76), Kevin Austin (61) and Cedrick Wilson (33). Because the Saints have used the maximum allotment of three elevations on Pettis, he'll need to be signed to the active roster in order to suit up this coming Sunday at the Giants.

Chisena reverted to the Panthers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Chisena caught his only target for six yards while playing two of the team's 70 total offensive snaps in Sunday's overtime loss to the Buccaneers. Additionally, he logged 17 snaps with the special-teams unit, failing to record any stats on those snaps. The wide receiver can be elevated to the active roster one more time before Carolina would officially have to sign him.

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

Due to injury woes in New Orleans' receiving corps, Austin has been a regular in the offense the past three games, including Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Rams, when he hauled in all three targets for 31 yards and recorded a nine-yard carry. He also ranked second in snaps (43 of 70) among the team's healthy wide receivers behind Marquez Valdes-Scantling (53, 2-36-1 line on three targets). Considering the Saints have used the maximum three elevations on Austin, he'll need to be signed to the active roster in order to play this coming Sunday at the Giants.

Doubs (concussion) was a limited practice participant Monday.

After sustaining a concussion against the 49ers in Week 12, Doubs didn't practice at all last week and eventually was ruled out ahead of last Thursday's game versus the Dolphins. He then was on the field in full uniform Sunday and followed it up with an official limited session to begin Week 14 prep. Clearly, Doubs has made some progress through the protocol for head injuries, but it remains to be seen if he'll be cleared by an independent neurologist before this Thursday's contest at Detroit.

Bobo wasn't targeted in Sunday's 26-21 win over the Jets.

Bobo handled a 32 percent snap share but couldn't draw a target for the third time in four games. Barring an injury ahead of him on the depth chart, Bobo has little fantasy value.
