ANTOINE WESLEY NEWS

Two TDs in win Wesley caught four of five targets for 30 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 25-22 win over the Cowboys.

Impact He was Kyler Murray's favorite red-zone option on the afternoon, hauling in a one-yard TD in the second quarter and a 19-yard strike in the third. Wesley has notched his first three NFL touchdowns in the last two games, and he'll look to pad that total further in Week 18 against the Seahawks.

Ready for bigger role Wesley will take on a larger role in the Arizona offense with DeAndre Hopkins undergoing knee surgery, Darren Urban of azcardinals.com reports.

Impact Wesley previously played 76-77 percent of snaps in three straight games (Weeks 9-11) when Hopkins missed time with a hamstring injury, catching seven of eight targets for 106 yards in that stretch. He'll likely continue to be targeted at a low rate on a per-snap/per-route basis, but Wesley does have a nice opportunity to pile up snaps and make an impression down the stretch.

Tallies four receptions Sunday Wesley recorded four catches (on four targets) for 44 yards during Sunday's 23-13 victory at Seattle.

Impact The Cardinals have been without top wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) for most of the past four games, and Wesley has profited as a result, earning at least 53 percent of the offensive snaps on each occasion. Wesley's production has been sporadic during that stretch, with outings of 62, 44, seven and no receiving yards. Overall, though, he's been efficient with his reps, hauling in eight of 11 targets (72.7 percent) and averaging 10.3 YPT. Arizona is on bye Week 12, so if Hopkins is back in Week 13 in Chicago, Wesley would be on the outside looking in again in a stacked receiving corps that also includes A.J. Green, Christian Kirk and Rondale Moore.

Surprisingly productive Sunday Wesley caught all three of his targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 31-17 win over the 49ers.

Impact One game after catching his first career pass in the NFL, Wesley made a much bigger splash as he took advantage of the snaps available while DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) and A.J. Green (COVID-19) were sidelined. Wesley also nearly scored a touchdown but was ruled out just shy of the goal line late in the first quarter after hauling in a pass from Christian Kirk. He's been hanging around on practice squads or injured reserve since going undrafted out of Texas Tech in 2019, but Wesley's recent performances may be earning him a regular spot on the Arizona roster.

Activated off COVID-19 list The Cardinals activated Wesley off the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Impact Wesley missed the first two weeks of the season after testing positive for the virus ahead of the season opener. The 23-year-old spent the 2020 campaign on the Ravens' injured reserve due to a shoulder injury and still was working his way back to full strength during training camp. It's unclear what type of role he may play for Arizona's offense this season.

Lands on COVID list The Cardinals have placed Wesley on the reserve/COVID-19 list following a positive test, Howard Balzer of SI.com reports.

Impact Wesley will now miss the team's season opener against the Titans as a result of his positive test. His status for Week 2 is certainly up in the air as well. When healthy, he projects primarily as a special-teams contributor.

Moved to injured reserve The Ravens sent Wesley (shoulder) to injured reserve Sunday, Clifton Brown of the Ravens' official site reports.

Impact Wesley signed a futures deal with the Ravens this offseason after landing a contract with the club as an undrafted free agent prior to the 2019 campaign. The team isn't ready to give up on him yet, moving the second-year wideout to the club's IR list.

Getting season-ending surgery Wesley (shoulder) will need season-ending surgery, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Wesley was enjoying a strong camp after spending last season on Baltimore's practice squad, but the 22-year-old Texas Tech product will now set his sights on recovering for the 2021 season.

Dealing with shoulder injury Wesley is set to see a specialist regarding a shoulder injury he suffered in practice, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Impact According to coach John Harbaugh there is some concern for the receiver, as the injury could require surgery and keep him out multiple weeks. The Texas Tech product likely wasn't going to make a large fantasy impact if he was to make the roster, but this certainly hurts his chances to see the field in 2020. It's likely that the team will update Wesley's status on an as-needed basis.
