Elevated from practice squad Winston was elevated from the Saints' practice squad ahead of Monday's game against the Dolphins, Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.

Impact Winston will join the active roster for a third straight week since Deonte Harris (undisclosed) is on the reserve/COVID-19 list. However, Winston is unlikely to have a significant fantasy impact since he's been targeted just once across the last two games.

Elevated ahead of Week 15 Winston was elevated from the Saints' practice squad Saturday.

Impact Winston has been elevated for a second-straight game and will likely get a chance to return punts again since Deonte Harris is suspended. The 25-year-old saw five offensive snaps in Week 14 and managed to catch his only target for five yards.

Back to practice squad Winston reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Winston was active for the first time this season in Week 14 as New Orleans dealt with the absences of Deonte Harris (suspension), Ty Montgomery (illness) and Lil'Jordan Humphrey (hamstring). He managed one reception, but his primary contributions came on special teams as he logged four punt returns for 54 yards.

First catch of season Winston caught one pass for five yards during Sunday's win over the Jets.

Impact Winston logged seven offensive snaps in the absence of Deonte Harris (suspension) and Lil'Jordan Humphrey (hamstring), but not even the Saints starting wide receivers are worthy of much fantasy consideration at this point.

Bumped up from practice squad Winston was promoted to the Saints' active roster Saturday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Impact Winston's promotion comes with the Saints potentially very thin at wide receiver Sunday against the Jets. With Lil'Jordan Humphrey (hamstring) questionable, Ty Montgomery on the reserve/COVID-19 list and Deonte Harris suspended, Winston will provide depth in the Saints' wide receiver unit.

Waived by New Orleans The Saints waived Winston on Tuesday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact Winston spent time with the Rams after going undrafted in 2020, but he wasn't able to earn a roster spot out of training camp. The Washington State product has shown enough upside to warrant a spot on the Saints' practice squad if he clears waivers.

Doesn't make final roster The Rams waived Winston on Friday, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.

Impact Winston's collegiate production was impressive, but he couldn't make the cut with the Rams. The Washington State product may have a chance at the practice squad if he clears waivers.
