Tyreek Hill (94 last week) 68
The Chiefs’ speedy receiver suffered a quad contusion against the Bills last week and missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday. He practiced on Friday, but we doubt he will be effective against the Washington Football Team.
Allen Robinson II (98 last week) 43
Chicago’s star wide receiver picked up an ankle injury Week 5 that caused him to miss two days of practice this week. The Bears will need a lot from Robinson with starting running back David Montgomery out, but we are unsure if Robinson can handle the workload.
Terry McLaurin (97 last week) 86
McLaurin reportedly experienced hamstring tightness when he woke up on Friday and missed practice out of precaution. He should be good to go against the Chiefs as long as the tightness doesn’t persist.
DeAndre Hopkins (94 last week) 94
An illness caused Hopkins to miss the first two days of practice, but he returned in full fashion Friday. The 29-year-old should play without limitations against the Browns.
Courtland Sutton (53 last week) 86
Sutton picked up an ankle injury in practice last week, but finished with 120 receiving yards and a touchdown against the Steelers. He is the Broncos’ only remaining starter and is due for a big workload once again.
Mike Williams (96 last week) 32
The 27-year-old missed all three days of practice with a knee injury. We doubt he plays, but if he does he will struggle to be effective.
Tee Higgins (68 last week) 87
Higgins returned last week and caught 5 passes for 32 yards after a shoulder injury kept him out Week 4. The second-year receiver gets a favorable matchup against Detroit this week and should exceed last week’s output.
Sterling Shepard (23 last week) 51
The Giants No. 2 wide receiver missed Weeks 4 and 5 with a hamstring strain. He will play against the Rams, but is not anywhere near 100%.
Darius Slayton (44 last week) 54
The former Auburn wide receiver also missed Weeks 4 and 5 with a hamstring strain and is listed as questionable ahead of the matchup with the Los Angeles Rams. Slayton has 7 catches for 127 yards in three games this year.
Chase Claypool (77 last week) 90
Claypool returned from his Week 4 hamstring strain last week and had 5 catches for 130 yards and a touchdown.
