Josh Reynolds WR | NYJ
Broncos' Josh Reynolds: Won't be activated Week 11
Reynolds (hand) won't play Sunday against the Falcons, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Reynolds won't be activated from injured reserve for Denver's Week 11 home game against the Falcons, but he was a full participant in practice all week after having his 21-day window to return opened Wednesday. Given that context, it wouldn't be surprising to see the wide receiver return to action Week 12 against the Raiders, though Reynolds would first have to be added to the active roster with an official transaction before he can suit up for a game.

Tyreek Hill WR | MIA
Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Cleared to play Sunday
Hill (wrist) doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Raiders after practicing fully Friday.
After being deemed a non-participant in Wednesday's walkthrough, Hill was limited Thursday before being able to cap his practice week with a full session. The Dolphins' starting wideout thus is slated to continue to play through his wrist issue, just as he did in Monday night's 23-15 win over the Rams, when he logged an 87 percent snap share en route to catching three of his four targets for 16 yards and a touchdown and rushing twice for 11 yards.

Van Jefferson WR | WAS
Steelers' Van Jefferson: Cleared to play Sunday
Jefferson (quadriceps) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Ravens, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
After missing practice Wednesday, Jefferson was limited Thursday and upgraded to full Friday. The veteran wideout hasn't been a fantasy factor all season and could start losing playing time to trade acquisition Mike Williams as soon as this week.

DK Metcalf WR | PIT
Seahawks' DK Metcalf: No injury designation
Metcalf (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at San Francisco, SI's Corbin Smith reports.
A Week 10 bye apparently did the trick, with Metcalf managing full practice participation Wednesday through Friday. He should be ready for his usual, near-every-down role in his first appearance since Week 7.

Gabe Davis WR | BUF
Jaguars' Gabe Davis: Cleared to face Detroit
Davis (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Lions, Mia O'Brien of 1010XL Radio reports.
Davis got the green light to play after three limited practices, which also is the case for fellow starting wide receiver Brian Thomas (chest). Detroit has allowed plenty of yardage to wide receivers this season, but Davis may not be able to capitalize on this favorable matchup while working with backup quarterback Mac Jones for a second consecutive week.

Brian Thomas Jr. WR | JAC
Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Cleared despite limited practices
Thomas (chest) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Lions, Mia O'Brien of 1010XL Radio reports.
Thomas was limited in all three of Jacksonville's practices but will play through a chest contusion for a third consecutive game. Jacksonville's No. 1 wide receiver is a high-risk, high-reward fantasy option Week 11. Thomas has just 34 receiving yards over the past two games while playing through this injury and will be catching passes from backup quarterback Mac Jones on Sunday, but the Lions are allowing 199.1 receiving yards per game to wide receivers.

Jauan Jennings WR | MIN
49ers' Jauan Jennings: Present at practice
Jennings (ankle) is present for Friday's practice, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.
Jennings was added to the injury report Thursday as a limited participant. It's unclear how much he'll do Friday, but his presence at least suggests he still has a chance to play Sunday against the Seahawks.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. WR | DET
Saints' Cedrick Wilson: Questionable for Week 11
Wilson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Cleveland, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Wilson was a limited practice participant all week after missing Sunday's 20-17 win over the Falcons. He may have a significant role if he avoids the inactive list before a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff, as the Saints have arguably the thinnest WR room in the league right now. Their wideouts combined for just six targets in the win last week, with two of those being TD passes to Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

Davante Adams WR | LAR
Jets' Davante Adams: Questionable but expected to play
Adams (illness/wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts after logging a full practice Friday.
Coach Jeff Ulbrich relayed earlier Friday that Adams is expected to play Sunday, and Adams' ensuing participation in practice is another positive indicator. Nonetheless, Adams' fantasy managers should check in approximately 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff for confirmation on the star wide receiver's status.

JuJu Smith-Schuster WR | KC
Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Cleared to return for Week 11
Smith-Schuster (hamstring) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bills.
Smith-Schuster logged full practices Thursday and Friday, paving the way for his first game action since Oct. 20. In his last full game prior to getting injured, Smith-Schuster had 130 receiving yards. The Chiefs subsequently traded for DeAndre Hopkins, but Smith-Schuster's still in line for a prominent role in his return.
