So many wide receivers today need to conjure up a dance or a corny routine in order to garner media attention. Even after making a simple first down, the truly self-centered divas have become their own endorsement-seeking public relation firms. Gaudy numbers really don’t tell the full story, or properly measure the true worth of just a few wide receivers who go about doing their work while putting the goals of the team before their own.

Colts WR Reggie Wayne and DE Dwight Freeney are officially active for Sunday’s game against the 49ers as expected.

The Colts expect WR Reggie Wayne and DE Dwight Freeney to start Sunday against the 49ers, according NFL Network’s Jason La Canfora.

Fantasy owners can start injured WRs Andre Johnson, Percy Harvin and Reggie Wayne today.

Here’s a look at some of the bigger news and notes that fantasy owners need to know for the upcoming Week 8 of the NFL season.

Be sure to keep tabs on the status of Texans WR Andre Johnson, Lions WR Calvin Johnson and Colts WR Reggie Wayne this week.

It was a tough day for wide receivers, as Houston’s Andre Johnson, Minnesota’s Bernard Berrian and Indianapolis’ Reggie Wayne all sustained injuries. Johnson and Berrian didn’t return, although Wayne did.

The Colts can breathe a sigh of relief: Reggie Wayne is back in the game.

Reggie Wayne, the Colts’ No. 1 receiver, left the game against the Rams with a strained groin and is questionable to return. The Colts already are playing with No. 2 receiver Anthony Gonzalez, who suffered a knee injury in the season opener and still isn’t ready to play.

The arrival of WR Braylon Edwards has made a big splash in New York, but the return of LB Calvin Pace could prove to be more meaningful in the short- and long-term for the Jets.

Get the latest notes from Around the Web, including the status of Ben Roethlisberger, whether Reggie Bush expects to play this week, who will be the starting QB for the Lions, and more.

You might want to remember the name Pierre Garcon. The Colts second-year wide receiver is competing for the No. 3 receiver job and is starting to warrant late-round consideration in leagues with 12-plus teams.

The Colts are dealing with a number of injuries during training camp, as starters Antoine Bethea, Dallas Clark, Bob Sanders and Ryan Diem are all sidelined heading into the preseason opener.

My Sirius Radio co-host Jim Miller put it best when he stated that at this time last year, the Colts hid Peyton Manning from the media so well that he may as well have been in a witness protection program.

The 13-year marriage between Marvin Harrison and the Indianapolis Colts is over.

Colts owner Jim Irsay announced Tuesday that the team has granted Harrison’s request to be released, a move that will have implications in fantasy football.
