  • Juwann Winfree WR | IND

    Juwann Winfree: Cut by Indianapolis

    Winfree was waived by the Colts on Saturday, James Boyd of The Athletic reports.

    The 27-year-old wideout hadn't appeared in a game in almost a month, so it's no surprise that Indianapolis decided to part ways. Winfree appeared in seven games for the Colts this season, failing to haul in his only target and playing 90 total snaps (21 offensive and 69 on special teams).

  • David Moore WR | TB

    Buccaneers' David Moore: Called up for third time

    The Buccaneers elevated Moore from the practice squad Saturday, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    This is the third straight game Moore has been promoted from the practice squad, which means the Bucs would have to sign him to their active roster if they wanted to play him for the rest of the season. Moore hasn't registered a catch in his two appearances this season and his split his limited snaps between offense and special teams.

  • Giants' Parris Campbell: Added to injury report

    Campbell (knee) was added to the injury report Saturday and is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Packers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

    Despite receiving a lucrative contract this past offseason, Campbell has been essentially demoted to the team's returner as the veteran has played just 54 offensive snaps total dating back to Week 6. If the speedy wideout, who wasn't listed on the injury report prior to Saturday, is unable to play, Gunner Olszewski could step into the top returner role.

  • Colts' D.J. Montgomery: Signed from practice squad

    The Colts signed Montgomery to their active roster Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Montgomery joined the Colts' practice squad Aug. 31 after being let go by the team two days prior ahead of the 53-man roster deadline. He has been called up from the practice squad the past two weeks and has mainly been utilized on special teams. Now that Montgomery has been signed to the active roster, he'll likely continue to serve on special teams while also providing depth at wide receiver.

  • Amari Cooper WR | CLE

    Browns' Amari Cooper: Ready to play Sunday

    Cooper (ribs) was cleared of concussion protocol Saturday and is in line to play Sunday against the Jaguars, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

    Cooper, who the Browns listed as questionable for Sunday's contest, was a limited participant in Friday's practice, paving the way for the Pro Bowl wideout to clear the five-step concussion protocol during the weekend. The Browns also predictably elevated Joe Flacco to the active roster, and while the team hasn't officially confirmed the veteran will make his second consecutive start, it seems likely Cooper will be catching passes from the 38-year-old come Sunday. The 29-year-old wide receiver tallied three catches on five targets across 23 snaps before being forced out of last week's loss to the Rams, so fantasy managers shouldn't have many reservations slotting Cooper back into lineups.

  • Allen Robinson WR | PIT

    Steelers' Allen Robinson: Tallies 21 yards in loss

    Robinson secured one of three targets for 21 yards during the Steelers' 21-18 loss to the Patriots on Thursday.

    Robinson was targeted twice earlier in Thursday's matchup, but his lone reception came on the final play of the game when the Steelers tried to pull off a miracle with a long field and no timeouts. He's now tallied double-digit receiving yards in four consecutive games, securing eight of 11 targets for 71 yards during that time. However, the 30-year-old's results haven't been enough to make him a fantasy-relevant option.

  • Seahawks' Dee Eskridge: Questionable for Week 14

    Eskridge (ribs) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers after logging a limited practice session Friday, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.

    Eskridge sat out Thursday's practice with a rib injury and returned Friday in a limited capacity. The injury forced him to sit out the Seahawks' Week 13 loss to the Cowboys. If Eskridge is unable to play Sunday, Zach Charbonnet (knee) figures to be the next man up for kick return duties, assuming he's able to suit up for the contest.

  • Browns' Marquise Goodwin: Returning Week 14

    Goodwin (concussion) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Zac Jackson of The Athletic reports.

    Goodwin had missed Cleveland's last four games with a concussion, but after a full practice session Friday, he also appears to have passed the final phase of the protocol for head injuries by gaining clearance from an independent neurologist. The 33-year-old wideout made eight appearances for the Browns this season, catching three of his 11 targets for 10 yards.

  • Ty Montgomery: Cut loose by New England

    The Patriots waived Montgomery on Friday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Montgomery was cut loose after he played just six of the team's 57 snaps on offense while recording one reception for 17 yards on two targets in Thursday's 21-18 win over the Steelers. The Patriots are now left with JaMycal Hasty and practice squad member Kevin Harris as depth options in the backfield behind Rhamondre Stevenson (ankle) and Ezekiel Elliott.

  • 49ers' Ray-Ray McCloud: Sitting out second straight game

    The 49ers have ruled McCloud out in advance of Sunday's game against the Seahawks, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

    McCloud will miss his second game in a row after he took a step back in terms of practice activity this week, opening with a limited session Wednesday before regressing to no participation Thursday and Friday. The 27-year-old serves as a depth receiver for San Francisco, but his absence will loom larger on special teams, where he serves as the 49ers' top kickoff and punt returner when healthy. While McCloud was out in the team's 42-19 win over the Eagles last Sunday, Deebo Samuel stepped in as the 49ers' kickoff returner while Ronnie Bell returned punts.
