Listed as questionable Meyers (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Bengals after practicing in a limited fashion Tuesday through Thursday, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' off...

Impact We'd be surprised if Meyers isn't available this weekend, but his status is nonetheless worth verifying as Saturday's 1:00 kickoff approaches. Assuming he suits up, Meyers should see enough snaps and targets to merit lineup consideration in PPR formats, but his Week 16 upside hinges on QB Mac Jones bouncing back from a 112-yard passing effort in this past Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Raiders.

Limited by shoulder issue Meyers (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant at practice Wednesday.

Impact Meyers moved past a concussion to suit up for this past Sunday's loss to the Raiders, logging a 62 percent snap share while catching two of his six targets for 47 yards. A shoulder issue has limited him at practice this week, but he's still likely to suit up this Saturday against the Bengals, though there's a chance he carries a questionable designation into the contest.

Listed on injury report still Meyers (concussion) is listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's practice report estimate.

Impact It's an unusual move to list Meyers on the practice report after he cleared concussion protocol and played in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Raiders. He did play somewhat less than usual -- 62 percent snap share, compared to 80-plus every week in the first half of the season -- but there was no report of any setback. Unless something is reported, Meyers should be good to go for Sunday's matchup with the Bengals.

Quiet day ends in disaster Meyers caught two of six targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Raiders.

Impact The entire Patriots passing game struggled and Meyers wound up leading the team in receiving yards in his return from a one-game absence due to a concussion, but his performance was marred by a nightmarish ending -- with the score tied, the Patriots tried to produce a miracle touchdown on their final play, only for Meyers' attempted back pass to Mac Jones to wind up being grabbed by Chandler Jones instead, who rumbled the other way for the game-winning score. Meyers hasn't topped 62 yards in eight straight appearances, but he may need to be more productive in Week 16 as the Patriots try to keep up with Joe Burrow and the Bengals.

Returns to action Sunday Meyers (concussion) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Raiders, Evan Lazar of the Patriots' official site reports.

Impact After finishing the week with a limited practice, Meyers will suit up Sunday, following a one-game absence due to a concussion he sustained versus the Bills on Dec. 1. With fellow wideout DeVante Parker (concussion) inactive, barring any setbacks Meyers should reclaim his key pass-catching role in the Patriots Week 15 offense alongside Nelson Agholor, Kendrick Bourne and Tyquan Thornton. Through 10 games to date, Meyers is averaging five catches (on 6.7 targets) for 59.3 yards, to go along with three TDs, a pace the keeps him on the fantasy radar, particularly in PPR formats.

Trending toward return Sunday The Patriots expect Meyers (concussion) to play Sunday against the Raiders, Andrew Callahan of the Boston Herald reports.

Impact Meyers, who was inactive this past Monday against the Cardinals, is officially listed as questionable after practicing in a limited fashion Friday, but it looks as though he's trending toward a return to the lineup Sunday following a one-game absence. Official confirmation of the wide receiver's Week 15 status will arrive once the Patriots' inactives are posted ahead of the team's 4:05 ET kickoff.
