Rotowire
The Bills cut Wilkerson from the practice squad Tuesday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
Wilkerson joined the Bills' practice squad in late August after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp.

Wilkerson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Wilkerson was limited to nine snaps on special teams in Sunday's 28-13 loss to the Buccaneers.

Kristian Wilkerson: Returns to practice squad
Rotowire
Wilkerson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Wilkerson was elevated to the active roster for the second week in a row, failing to record any stats in the team's 20-15 loss to the Rams. The wide receiver played 18 of the team's 79 offensive snaps, which was the fourth-highest total amongst players at his position. With Davante Adams now with the Jets and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) still banged up, it's possible that Wilkerson is active again in Week 8 versus Kansas City.

Rotowire
Wilkerson caught two of three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.
Wilkerson, who was elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's contest, found the end zone in his first action of the season on a nine-yard pass from quarterback Aidan O'Connell, which came on a fourth-and-2 with less than five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. If at least one of Jakobi Meyers (ankle) or Davante Adams (hamstring) remains out for the Raiders' Week 7 matchup against the Rams, Wilkerson again could see himself elevated from the practice squad.

Kristian Wilkerson: Back with Raiders on taxi squad
Rotowire
The Raiders signed Wilkerson to the practice squad Wednesday.
Wilkerson was on the Raiders' practice squad in 2023 and played 40 offensive snaps across two regular-season appearances. He finished the preseason with seven catches (on 13 targets) for 69 yards and one touchdown across three games, but it wasn't enough for him to crack Las Vegas' 53-man roster. Wilkerson could be promoted to the active roster during the regular season should any of the Raiders' wide receivers miss time.

Patriots' Kristian Wilkerson: Suffers concussion
Rotowire
Wilkerson suffered a concussion during practice Wednesday, and he's unlikely to play in Friday's preseason game against the Panthers, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.
Wilkerson needed to be carted off the field after the hit, but he is feeling "fine" according to Callahan. Assuming Wilkerson does miss Friday's contest, he'll still have one more in-game opportunity to earn a roster spot on Friday, Aug. 26 against the Raiders.

Patriots' Kristian Wilkerson: Carted off field Wednesday
Rotowire
Wilkerson was carted off the field during Wednesday's practice after absorbing a hit on a kickoff, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.
Wilkerson, who was down on the field for several minutes before being carted to the locker room, was transported away for off-site medical evaluation. The wideout made a splash in the Patriots' preseason opener last Thursday with eight receptions for 99 yards on 12 targets, putting him in a good early position to be included on the season-opening roster. He's been competing for a depth role in a receiver corps headed by DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne, Jakobi Meyers and Nelson Agholor.

Patriots' Kristian Wilkerson: Unavailable Saturday
Rotowire
Wilkerson (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Saturday in Buffalo.
Wilkerson's elevation from the practice squad Friday was a decent sign that he'd be available to the Patriots in the wild-card round. Instead, he'll be in street clothes while N'Keal Harry and Gunner Olszewski act as the depth wide receivers behind the top trio of Jakobi Meyers, Nelson Agholor and Kendrick Bourne.

Patriots' Kristian Wilkerson: Joins active roster
Rotowire
The Patriots elevated Wilkerson to their active roster in advance of Saturday's playoff opener against the Bills.
With Nelson Agholor out with a concussion Week 17, Wilkerson stepped into an expanded role in the Patriots' blowout win over the Jaguars, catching four of his eight targets for 42 yards and two touchdowns. Agholor returned to action for the team's regular-season finale, so Wilkerson wasn't activated ahead of that contest. Heading into playoffs, Wilkerson gives the team added wideout depth behind Jakobi Meyers, Kendrick Bourne and Agholor, a context that makes him a speculative fantasy option this weekend.
