Robinson secured all five targets for 30 yards in the Giants' 26-18 loss to the Steelers on Monday night.

Robinson finished second in receptions on the night for the Giants, but that led to modest yardage in the receiver's typical short-area role. Robinson has at least five receptions in six straight games, but the fact he's exceeded 50 receiving yards just twice in that span underscores his fantasy viability is largely limited to full-PPR formats.

Slayton brought in four of seven targets for 108 yards in the Giants' 26-18 loss to the Steelers on Monday night.

Slayton led the Giants in receiving yards with his second-highest total of the campaign. The veteran wideout also commanded a lot more of Daniel Jones' attention after logging only one target Week 7, and Slayton now has a combined 30 looks in the past four contests. The speedster could still thrive if embattled head coach Brian Daboll opts to make a change at quarterback from Jones to Drew Lock heading into a Week 9 home matchup against the Commanders, considering Lock has shown a willingness to throw deep throughout his career.

Nabers secured seven of 13 targets for 71 yards in the Giants' 26-18 loss to the Steelers on Monday night.

Nabers paced the Giants in targets by a wide margin while also serving as the team leader in receptions. The rookie took a positive step after a lackluster 4-41-0 receiving line against the Eagles in his Week 7 return from a two-game absence due to a concussion, but Nabers appears likely to be blocked from maximizing his considerable talents on most weeks due to the Giants' quarterback situation. Nabers' next opportunity to impress comes in a Week 9 home matchup against an improving Commanders defense.

Miller brought in three of five targets for 19 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-26 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

The Furman product was in on 30 snaps (41.0 percent), logging the fourth-most plays from scrimmage in the Buccaneers' short-handed receiving corps. Miller has shown well with his limited opportunities across his two regular-season appearances this season, and the fact Mike Evans (hamstring) will remain out through the Week 11 bye and Chris Godwin (IR, ankle) is out for the rest of the regular season should continue affording the second-year wideout opportunity to remain on the 53- man roster.

Jarrett brought in all three targets for 58 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-26 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

Jarrett was making his season debut after overcoming a preseason knee injury, and he finished with the Buccaneers' second-highest yardage total despite playing just 20 snaps (27 percent). The Maryland product could continue carving out a steady role over the next two games considering Mike Evans (hamstring) isn't expected back until after the Week 11 bye, and at least Sunday, Jarrett was more productive than all of Jalen McMillan, Trey Palmer, Sterling Shepard and Ryan Miller, the receivers in front of him on the depth chart.

Palmer brought in both targets for 29 yards and returned two punts for 31 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-26 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

Palmer was in line for extended opportunity due to the absences of Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (IR, ankle), and he indeed logged 51 snaps (70 percent). However, Palmer's numbers left much to be desired, and he's still in search of his first 30-plus-yard showing of the campaign. The second-year speedster will be on the field plenty again during a Week 9 road matchup against the Chiefs next Monday night.

Shepard secured three of five targets for 18 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-26 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

Shepard's production didn't see a boost despite the absences of Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (IR, ankle) and the fact he logged a robust 45 snaps (62 percent). The veteran wideout does have plenty of familiarity with Baker Mayfield from their college days and has shown some flashes this season, but his production will remain hard to trust in a tough Week 9 road matchup against the defending champion Chiefs next Monday night.

Reagor reverted to the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Reagor caught both of his targets for 35 yards while playing 20 of the team's 66 total offensive snaps in their 26-8 win over New Orleans in Week 8. Additionally, he added a 22-yard kick return while playing three snaps on special teams. If Quentin Johnston (ankle) remains unavailable Sunday versus the Browns, Reagor will likely be elevated again in Week 9.

St. Brown reverted to New Orleans' practice squad Monday.

St. Brown didn't record any stats during Sunday's matchup versus the Chargers despite seeing an increased role with Cedrick Wilson (hip) out. St. Brown will now wait for his next chance to be elevated for a game.

Johnson reverted to the Chargers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Johnson failed to record any stats while playing one snap on offense and three snaps with the special-teams unit in the team's 26-8 win over the Saints in Week 8. The wide receiver can be elevated two more times before Los Angeles would have to officially sign him to the 53-man roster.
