Catches one pass in loss
Humphrey caught one of his two targets for four yards in Sunday's 35-33 loss to the Commanders.
Analysis: Humphrey saw a major dip in his snap share percentage Sunday, taking the field for 32 percent of the Broncos offensive plays after reaching a 71 percent snap share in Week 1. The veteran wideout's drop in usage was expected with the return of Jerry Jeudy into the lineup. With that said, Humphrey still worked ahead of Marvin Mims, but it was the rookie who made the most of his opportunities with 113 receiving yards, including a 60-yard touchdown grab. Humphrey could likely see his chances…read more

Brought up to active roster
Denver signed Humphrey off its practice squad Wednesday.
Analysis: After he was elevated from the practice squad Week 1, Humphrey will get a permanent spot on the 53-man roster after the Broncos placed safety Caden Sterns (knee) on injured reserve Wednesday in a corresponding move. In the team's season-opening loss to the Raiders, Humphrey trailed only Courtland Sutton among Denver's receivers in offensive snap share, taking the field for 71 percent of the plays while recording two catches for 11 yards and a touchdown on two targets. Even if Humphrey continues…read more

Returns to practice squad
Humphrey reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday.
Analysis: Humphrey was elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's 17-16 loss to the Raiders, reeling both of his targets for 11 yards and a touchdown while playing 41 out of the team's 64 offensive snaps. If Jerry Jeudy (hamstring) remains unavailable in Week 2 versus the Commanders, it's possible the wide receiver is elevated to the active roster once again.

Elevated from practice squad
Humphrey was elevated from the Broncos' practice squad Saturday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Analysis: Humphrey joined the Broncos' practice squad Aug. 30 after being let go by the team the day before. His elevation to the active roster, along with fellow wideout Phillip Dorsett, may indicate that Jerry Jeudy will not suit up for Sunday's Week 1 matchup against the Raiders.

Added to practice squad
Humphrey joined the Broncos' practice squad Wednesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Humphrey led the Broncos with eight receptions on 12 targets for 113 receiving yards during the preseason, but that was not enough to get him through final roster cuts. However, his strong training camp secured him a spot on the practice squad, where he will now continue to work at making an impression.

Let loose by Broncos
Denver released Humphrey on Tuesday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
Analysis: Humphrey signed with the Broncos in early March after bouncing between New England's practice squad and active roster last season. The wideout led Denver with eight catches, 12 targets and 113 receiving yards during exhibition play, but that wasn't enough to earn him a spot on the active roster. Given his strong training camp, it wouldn't be surprising if Humphrey ends up on Denver's practice squad.

Finds work in Denver
The Broncos signed Humphrey on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Humphrey jumped between New England's practice squad and its active roster during the 2022 campaign, ultimately appearing in six games for the Patriots before being let go in November. The 24-year-old wide receiver is now slated to compete for a depth role within Denver's receiving corps this offseason.

Let go Tuesday
Humphrey was cut from the Patriots' practice squad Tuesday.
Analysis: Humphrey played in each of New England's first six games this season, recording two catches on four targets for 20 yards. The 24-year-old was previously let go by the Patriots this season and subsequently brought back, which could happen again. If not, Humphrey will work to earn an opportunity elsewhere.

Bumped down to practice squad
Humphrey reverted to the Patriots' practice squad Monday.
Analysis: Humphrey was waived by New England on Tuesday before re-signing with the team's practice squad Thursday. The 24-year was then activated to the active roster with wide receiver Nelson Agholor (hamstring) sidelined for Week 6. Humphrey ultimately did not record a statistic while playing just one special-teams snap during the 38-15 win over the Browns, and he'll now be eligible for two more elevations from the Patriots' practice squad this season.

Moved up from practice squad
The Patriots elevated Humphrey from the practice squad Saturday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: With Nelson Agholor (hamstring) getting downgraded to out for Sunday's game in Cleveland, Humphrey will move up from the practice squad to bolster the Patriots' depth at receiver. While playing in all five of the Patriots' games to date, Humphrey has produced only two receptions for 20 yards across 125 snaps on offense.

Staying with Pats
The Patriots re-signed Humphrey to the practice squad Thursday.
Analysis: Humphrey opened the regular season on New England's practice squad and was elevated for the season opener before signing to the active roster shortly thereafter. However, the fourth-year wideout saw his playing time fall over each of the past three weeks and was waived Tuesday. Humphrey should now be a likely candidate for subsequent game-day activations moving forward.

Sees 54 snaps Sunday
Humphrey logged 54 of a possible 66 snaps on offense in Sunday's 37-26 loss to the Ravens, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Despite being second among the Patriots wideouts in terms of snaps Week 3, Humphrey didn't record a catch (on one target) in the contest. For now, the 6-foot-4, 225-pounder is off the fantasy radar, though his versatility (Humphrey saw TE reps in training camp) and blocking ability could keep earning him a share of playing time in the weeks ahead.

Catches one pass Sunday
Humphrey was on the field for 26 of a possible 68 snaps on offense in Sunday's 17-14 win over the Steelers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: In the process, Humphrey caught one of his two targets for 11 yards Week 2. For now, the 24-year-old is off the fantasy radar while working as a depth option in a New England wideout corps that also includes Jakobi Meyers, DeVante Parker, Nelson Agholor and Kendrick Bourne.

Joins 53-man roster
Humphrey was signed to the Patriots' active roster Tuesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Humphrey was elevated to the Patriots' active roster prior to last Sunday's season opener against the Dolphins, as fellow receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee) was listed as questionable for the contest. Meyers ended up playing, and the 225-pounder subsequently reverted back to the team's practice squad Monday. However, with RB Ty Montgomery (knee) being placed on injured reserve Tuesday, Humphrey was signed to New England's active roster once again. The 24-year-old provides the team with added WR…read more

The Patriots have elevated Humphrey from their practice squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.

Signs with Pats' practice squad
New England signed Humphrey to its practice squad Wednesday, Mike Dussault of the Patriots' official site reports.
Analysis: Fellow wideout Tre Nixon will join Humphrey on the practice squad, giving New England a couple of in-house promotion options should an injury strike one of the wideouts on the 53-man roster. With New Orleans last season, Humphrey appeared in 10 games and totaled 13 receptions for 249 yards and two touchdowns.

Sees some TE reps
Humphrey relayed Monday that he's seen some reps at tight end in training camp, Zack Cox of NESN.com reports.
Analysis: If the 6-foot-4, 225 pounder -- who is listed as a wide receiver -- demonstrates that he has the versatility to play some tight end, it potentially could help him land a roster spot. Though two preseason games, Humphrey has logged 11 catches for 133 yards and a TD, while also making a mark on special teams.

Joins New England via one-year deal
Humphrey agreed Wednesday with the Patriots on a one-year contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Reports earlier this offseason suggested that Humphrey planned on re-signing with the Saints, but the 24-year-old ultimately chose to continue his career with New England. In part due to the Saints' top wideout, Michael Thomas (ankle), missing the entire 2021 season, Humphrey was able to record a career-high 249 receiving yards across 10 games.

New Orleans re-signed Humphrey, a restricted free agent, to a contract Wednesday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Humphrey recently dealt with an ankle injury, per Underhill, but he's fully on track for the start of the offseason program. After compiling a career-high 249 receiving yards through 10 games last season, Humphrey figures to once again compete for a depth role with the Saints.

Contributes down the stretch
Humphrey caught 13 of 18 targets for 249 yards and two touchdowns in 10 games during the 2021 season.
Analysis: Humphrey missed seven games between injuries, coach's decisions and COVID protocols, but he was a regular part of the rotation over the second half of the season despite Tre'Quan Smith's return to the lineup. However, the 6-foot-4 only saw more than two targets twice and only once was he targeted in the red zone. While Humphrey's status as an exclusive-rights free agent almost guarantees that he'll be back in New Orleans in 2022, each of Michael Thomas, Marquez Callaway and Deonte Harris will…read more

Two catches in win
Humphrey caught both his targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 18-10 win over the Panthers.
Analysis: The Saints' passing tree was very narrow in this one, as only Marquez Callaway and Alvin Kamara saw more targets or had more production than Humphrey. It was a disappointing performance for the 23-year-old after he set a career high with 70 yards last week, but he'll get one more chance in the regular season to make a splash as New Orleans faces Atlanta in Week 18 with a possible wild-card berth on the line.

Good to go Week 17
Humphrey (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Panthers, John DeShazier of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Humphrey dealt with a non-COVID-19 illness late in the week, but he'll be out there against Carolina for the late-season divisional clash. The 23-year-old is coming off a career-best three-catch, 70-yard performance against the Dolphins in Week 16, numbers he generated with rookie Ian Book at quarterback.

Iffy for Week 17
The Saints list Humphrey as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers with an illness.
Analysis: Humphrey was a late addition to the Saints' Week 17 injury report after he failed to practice Friday upon coming down with the ailment. The wideout hasn't been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list and should have a shot at being available Sunday, provided he makes good progress in his recovery over the next 48 hours. With three catches for 70 yards on five targets in the Week 16 loss to Miami, Humphrey was one of the few Saints skill-position players to deliver a useful fantasy line in the game,…read more

Secures long pass in garbage time
Humphrey caught three of five targets for 70 yards during Monday's 20-3 loss to Miami.
Analysis: The majority of Humphrey's production came on a 56-yard bomb in the closing minutes of garbage time. Otherwise, he didn't do much, just like every other New Orleans pass catcher that had to make due with rookie quarterback Ian Book, who struggled mightily in his first NFL start. None of them, Humphrey included, will be advisable fantasy options if Book remains under center in Week 17 against Carolina.

Back in action Sunday
Humphrey (hamstring) is listed as active Sunday at Tampa Bay, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: After sitting out one game due to a hamstring issue, Humphrey managed a pair of limited practices to close out Week 15 prep, setting himself up for a potential return to action. Now that it's official, he'll work with quarterback Taysom Hill for the second time this season. Back in a Week 13 loss to the Cowboys, Humphrey hauled in both of his targets for 49 yards and one touchdown.

Questionable to suit up
Humphrey (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Rod Walker of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Humphrey missed last week's win over the Jets after a Thursday addition to the injury report, but he could make it back this Sunday after logging limited practices Thursday and Friday. Even if that happens, he'll only be the No. 3 receiver in an unimpressive passing offense, and with some risk of a game-time decision ahead of the 8:20 ET kickoff Sunday night. If Humphrey is out, Kenny Stills likely will fill in as the No. 3 receiver again.

Practices in limited fashion
Humphrey (hamstring) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: The limited session marks a step forward for Humphrey, who didn't participate in practice last Friday due to the hamstring injury before sitting out Sunday's win over the Jets. He remained idle for the Saints' first Week 15 practice Wednesday, but Humphrey's return to the field Thursday should give him a chance at being available this weekend in Tampa Bay.

Humphrey (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday.
Analysis: With Humphrey trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers and Deonte Harris suspended for two more games, Kenny Stills may get another shot as the Saints' No. 3 receiver. The role didn't amount to much production in Sunday's win over the Jets, with Stills unable to draw a target on 27 snaps (39 percent).

Analysis: Humphrey logged progressively fewer practice reps as Week 14 prep ensued, showing up on Thursday's injury report as limited before sitting out Friday's session entirely due to a hamstring issue. The Saints' receiving corps is down Michael Thomas (ankle), Deonte Harris (suspension), Ty Montgomery (COVID-19) and Humphrey on Sunday, leaving Tre'Quan Smith, Marquez Callaway, Kenny Stills, Kevin White and Easop Winston as wideouts available to quarterback Taysom Hill.

Status in question for Sunday
Humphrey (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's road game against the Jets, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Humphrey made a sudden appearance on the Saints' practice report Thursday as limited with a hamstring injury, which didn't allow him to practice at all Friday. Still, the team is leaving open the possibility for Humphrey to play Sunday, likely due to Deonte Harris serving a three-game suspension and Ty Montgomery residing on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Tending to hamstring injury
Humphrey was a limited participant in Thursday's practice due to a hamstring injury.
Analysis: Humphrey has been a fringe member of the Saints' receiving corps this season and a healthy inactive on multiple occasions, but his status suddenly bears monitoring due to the depleted state of the position group heading into Sunday's game against the Jets.

Humphrey secured both targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 27-17 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday night.
Analysis: Humphrey checked in a distant second to Deonte Harris in receiving yards, but he was able to get into the end zone via a 24-yard scoring grab early in the second quarter. The 23-year-old now has a pair of touchdown catches in the last three games, while his yardage totals over the last pair of contests -- he also posted 47 yards against the Bills on Thanksgiving night -- are the two highest of his career.

Humphrey (coach's decision) is officially inactive for Sunday's game at Washington.

Humphrey (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Patriots, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Humphrey appeared to be in line for a bigger role after he logged 55 percent of the offensive snaps in Week 2 compared to the 29 percent he played during Week 1. However, that isn't the case, as the 6-foot-4 wideout has been ruled a healthy scratch for Week 3. Kenny Stills, who was elevated from the practice squad Saturday, and Chris Hogan will be the key beneficiaries of Humphrey's absence.

Gets involved in passing game
Humphrey caught one of two targets for 27 yards during Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Panthers.
Analysis: Humphrey wasn't in the starting lineup this time around, but he jumped from 29 percent of the offensive snaps Week 1 to 55 percent Sunday, despite the Saints needing a pass-heavy approach most of the game. While this jump in playing time resulted in a couple of targets for him after he didn't see any in the season opener, the 6-foot-4 receiver likely will continue to see his biggest offensive contributions come as a blocker.

No targets in Week 1
Humphrey logged 18 offensive snaps but was not targeted with a pass during Sunday's 38-3 win over Green Bay.
Analysis: The 6-foot-4 receiver drew the start opposite Marquez Callaway, but he ultimately logged just 29 percent of the offensive snaps compared to 84 for Callaway and 44 for Deonte Harris. Moreover, Humphrey largely focuses on blocking tasks when he does see the field, so it's hard to get excited about his fantasy potential even if he is a starter in the absence of Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (hamstring). Next up for the Saints is a Week 2 road game in Carolina.

Scores again
Humphrey caught four passes for 74 yards and one touchdown during Monday's 23-21 preseason victory over Jacksonville.
Analysis: The 6-foot-4 Humphrey found the end zone for a second straight exhibition game, this time on a back-shoulder pass from Taysom Hill. While the Saints have a number of candidates to help fill the void at receiver while Michael Thomas (ankle) and Tre'Quan Smith (undisclosed) work their way back from injury, Humphrey is making a strong case to be near the top of the rotation. Other candidates for snaps behind Marquez Callaway and Deonte Harris include Ty Montgomery, Chris Hogan and Kawaan Baker.

Candidate for early season snaps
Humphrey is a candidate for early season snaps in the absence of Michael Thomas (ankle), Katherine Terrell of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: The Saints have a number of candidates to see expanded roles in Thomas' absence, starting with Tre'Quan Smith, Marquez Callaway, Deonte Harris and Kawaan Baker. However, at 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, Humphrey certainly is a bigger asset as a blocker in the run game than many of them. However, even if Humphrey does find a way to work himself onto the field during the regular season, his upside as a fantasy contributor is low considering his 4.75-second 40 time from the 2019 NFL Combine was slowest…read more

Earns future deal
Humphrey signed a reserve/future contract with the Saints on Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Humphrey played in the final three regular-season games, and he logged a 54 percent snap share in the wild-card win over the Bears. Over those four contests, Humphrey recorded four receptions (six targets) for 60 yards and a touchdown. While he's not expected to crack the starting lineup anytime soon, Humphrey could earn a depth role in the Big Easy next year.

Shifts to practice squad
Humphrey reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: Humphrey finished third among Saints' wide receivers with 45 snaps on offense (54 percent) in Sunday's wild-card win over the Bears, although he was held to just one 14-yard reception on his lone target. The Saints put a lot of trust in Humphrey for a playoff game, so he stands a good chance to be elevated from the practice squad for the NFC divisional-round game against the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Lifted from practice squad
The Saints elevated Humphrey from the practice squad Saturday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Although Michael Thomas (ankle) is back from IR, Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) is still unavailable, so Humphrey will add depth at wide receiver in Sunday's wild-card game against the Bears.

Goes back to practice squad
Humphrey reverted to the Saints' practice squad Saturday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Analysis: 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.
Analysis: 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,…read more

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

Bumps to active roster
The Saints elevated Humphrey to the active roster Saturday, Amie Just of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: Humphrey hasn't yet appeared in a game for the Saints this season, but it looks like he could get some work against the Chiefs on Sunday. With Michael Thomas (ankle) on IR, Drew Brees could have to lean on his depth receivers a bit more than usual.

Drops to waivers
Humphrey was waived by the Saints on Saturday, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.
Analysis: Humphrey played five games with the Saints last year but didn't record a catch over 53 offensive snaps. He was unable to secure a roster spot in 2020, and he will likely need to settle for a practice squad role to begin the season.

Catchless in rookie campaign
Humphrey concluded the regular season with no receptions on one target across five games.
Analysis: After going undrafted out of Texas last spring, Humphrey signed with the Saints and took part in training camp and the preseason before getting waived prior to Week 1. The wideout stuck around with the organization as a member of the practice squad and earned a promotion to the 53-man roster Sept. 18, appearing in four of the team's five games before he was cut loose again in late October. After another stint on the practice squad, Humphrey was promoted again prior to Week 17 and logged 15…read more
