Goes back to practice squad Humphrey reverted to the Saints' practice squad Saturday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Humphrey was called up for a second straight week because both Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) are on injured reserve. The 22-year-old wide receiver scored his first career touchdown last week, but he was blanked by the Vikings in Friday's 52-33 win. With Thomas and Smith both out Week 17 as well, Humphrey could be back on the active roster for the season finale against Carolina.

Rejoins New Orleans for Week 16 The Saints elevated Humphrey from their practice squad Thursday, Larry Holder of The Athletic reports.

Impact After Michael Thomas (ankle) was moved to injured reserve and Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) exited early in last week's loss to the Chiefs, Humphrey ended up finishing the contest as the team's No. 3 receiver behind Emmanuel Sanders and Juwan Johnson. Humphrey was able to make an impact while playing 49 percent of the offensive snaps, hauling in two of four targets for 29 yards and a touchdown. Smith has since been moved to IR, but the Saints activated Marquez Callaway (knee) in a corresponding move, so Humphrey could be bumped down to the No. 4 role in New Orleans' Christmas Day matchup with the Vikings.

Gets TD, reverts to practice squad Humphrey reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Humphrey enjoyed an eventful Week 15, fielding 27 of 55 offensive snaps while reeling in two of four targets for 29 yards against Kansas City. The Texas standout's 17-yard touchdown catch with 2:06 remaining in regulation helped pull New Orleans to within three points, but the Chiefs would subsequently ice the game by way of a seven-play, 34-yard drive.

First NFL touchdown Humphrey corralled two of four targets for 29 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 32-29 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday.

Impact Activated to the active roster Saturday, Humphrey got his first taste of 2020 NFL action and immediately made an impact. The second-year man drew only one target as a rookie and finished his inaugural campaign without a catch. He lassoed his first receptions as a pro and his first touchdown in the process. Humphrey could stay involved to finish out the regular season with Michael Thomas (ankle) on injured reserve.
