Boston isn't expected to practice Wednesday due to a toe injury, Daniel Oyefusi reports.

Boston logged a 93 percent snap share in this past Sunday's 23-22 overtime loss to the Saints, en route to hauling in six of his seven targets for 98 yards. However the rookie WR emerged from the contest with a toe issue that will make his status worth watching ahead of this weekend's game against the Texans. If Boston ends up being available, he'll be catching passes once again from Deshaun Watson, while Week 9 starter Shedeur Sanders will revert to serving as the Browns' QB2.

Colts coach Shane Steichen said Wednesday that Gould is in line to step into the slot role previously held by Josh Downs, Stephen Holder of ESPN.com reports.

With both Downs and Keenan Allen having been dealt by the Colts on Tuesday, the team will be operating with a re-shaped WR corps going forward. According to the Colts' latest unofficial depth chart, Gould is indeed listed a first-teamer along with Ashton Dulin and Laquon Treadwell. Also expected to have additional opportunities in the coming weeks will be 2026 seventh-rounder Deion Burks, with veteran pass catcher Nick Westbrook-Ikhine in the mix as well after being signed off the practice squad. Though a wait-and-see approach is in order in term's of Gould's fantasy lineup viability, his production beginning this weekend versus Miami is worth tracking by those in deeper PPR formats.

Felton went without a target while playing six of the Vikings' 48 offensive snaps in Monday's 23-6 loss to the Bills.

Felton continues to handle a muted role as a depth receiver for Minnesota, as Monday marked the third consecutive game in which he played single-digit snaps. For the season, the second-year wideout out of Maryland has been limited to just three receptions for 41 yards on seven targets over eight appearances.

Johnson played all 17 of his snaps on special teams and recorded one tackle in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Bears.

Johnson, a reserve wide receiver, has been used almost exclusively on special teams through his two-plus seasons in Tampa Bay. He's logged just 15 total snaps on offense through nine games in 2026, recording a three-yard reception on two targets. Johnson leads the Buccaneers with 14 kickoff returns for 389 yards, but he didn't see any runback opportunities in Week 9 while Sean Tucker handled those duties.

The Rams remain optimistic that Nacua (knee/toe) will be able to return to action Week 14 versus the 49ers or Week 15 versus the Cowboys, Dan Graziano of ESPN.com reports.

While the Rams have yet to officially rule Nacua out for their Week 10 game at Arizona, head coach Sean McVay acknowledged Monday that the wideout was likely to land on injured reserve. It's unclear if the Rams are still planning on deactivating Nacua, however; they placed fellow receiver Jordan Whittington (back) on IR on Tuesday, while Nacua remained a member of the 53-man roster. With a bye on tap Week 11, the Rams could be compelled to keep Nacua off IR if they believe he can play Week 14, which would mean that he misses three games rather than four required for an IR stint. Whatever the case, the Rams will have to get by a depleted pass-catching group in the short term, as Nacua, Whittington, Davante Adams (hamstring) and Terrance Ferguson (hamstring) are all sidelined with injuries.

Bech caught one of two targets for nine yards Sunday in a loss to the 49ers.

Bech logged a 34 percent offensive snap share, third-highest among Raiders wideouts behind Jalen Nailor (74 percent) and Tre Tucker (64 percent). Though he seems fairly secure in the No. 3 wideout role, Bech hasn't done much this season, producing no more than three catches or 25 yards in any of his five games to date.

Price caught one of his four targets for six yards in a Week 9 loss to Buffalo on Monday Night Football. He also gained 12 yards on one punt return and brought back four kickoffs for 124 yards.

Price wasn't the only Minnesota pass catcher who logged an inefficient line, as starting quarterback Carson Wentz completed just eight of 25 pass attempts. Price did make an impact in the return game by averaging 31.0 yards on his four kickoff returns. Price's role continues to be mostly centered on special teams, as he's caught just four passes for 32 yards on 11 targets through eight games.

Williams did not draw a target in Sunday's Week 9 loss to Kansas City. However, he rushed once for four yards, returned one punt for 18 yards and returned two kickoffs for 55 yards.

Williams didn't get a ball thrown his way despite logging a 60 percent offensive snap share. While the Illinois product continues to have a role in multiple facets of the game for New York, he's not making much of an impact as a pass catcher. Williams has one or zero catches in five straight contests and has tallied only 34 receiving yards during that span.

TeSlaa registered one catch for nine yards on two targets in Sunday's 19-9 win over Miami.

Jared Goff threw to TeSlaa twice on Detroit's opening drive but didn't turn to him again for the remainder of the contest. The second-year wideout thus continued a very unproductive stretch, as he's logged just two catches for 19 yards on six targets over his past four games. TeSlaa is still working as Detroit's No. 3 wideout -- among Lions wide receivers, only Jameson Williams and Amon-Ra St. Brown logged more offensive snaps Sunday -- but looks just aren't coming his way. He'll try to break out of the funk next Sunday against New England.

Royals caught both of his targets for 18 yards Sunday in a 35-12 rout of the Jets.

Royals ranked fourth among KC wideouts in offensive snaps (21), trailing Xavier Worthy (49), Rashee Rice (38) and Andrew Armstrong (22). Royals matched his season high with two catches, and the 18 receiving yards yards were his second-most in a game this season. That speaks to the minimal production he's provided thus far, and Royals' role could be further reduced with the Chiefs' acquisition of Josh Downs on Tuesday.
