Brown caught his lone target for 11 yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Ravens.

Brown dropped to a 32.0 percent snap share, fifth most among Washington's wide receivers, after handling 55.0 percent the week before with Noah Brown inactive due to a groin injury. The Commanders rotate WRs more than most teams, but Brown would probably need multiple injuries in front of him to see more than 2-3 targets per game. Next up is a Week 7 home game against Carolina.

Miller reverted to Tampa Bay's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Miller was elevated off the practice squad ahead of Sunday's Week 6 win over New Orleans and logged 32 of the the team's 77 offensive snaps in the contest. The wideout caught his only target for a 39-yard gain on a drive that ended with a Tampa Bay touchdown. Miller's elevation was his first of the campaign, so he can be elevated twice more before the Buccaneers would need to sign him to the 53-man roster in order for him to suit up.

Wilkerson reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday.

With Davante Adams (hamstring) and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) both out Week 6 against Pittsburgh, Wilkerson was brought up from the practice squad and played on 27 of the Raiders' 63 offensive snaps. He caught just two passes (on three targets) for 18 yards but accounted for one of the team's two touchdowns with a nine-yard score. The elevation was Wilkerson's first of the campaign, and he could be called upon again Week 7 against the Rams if Adams and/or Meyers misses another contest.

Hodgins reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday.

Hodgins caught his lone target for five yards in Sunday's loss to the Bengals while playing 19 percent of the offensive snaps, ranking as a distant fourth behind Darius Slayton, Wan'Dale Robinson and Jalin Hyatt.

Bachman reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday.

Bachman was elevated for the third straight game Week 6 and logged 27 of Las Vegas' 63 offensive snaps in a loss against Pittsburgh. The wideout finished with his first three catches of the campaign (on three targets) for 31 yards. A player can be elevated from the practice squad only three times in a campaign, so the Raiders will need to sign Bachman to the 53-man roster if they want him to play again Week 7 versus the Rams. The likelihood of that happening could depend on whether Davante Adams (hamstring) and/or Jakobi Meyers (ankle) are able to return to game action.

Zaccheaus caught four of six targets for 27 yards in a 30-23 loss at Baltimore on Sunday.

Zaccheaus split slot work with Luke McCaffrey, handling 38 percent snap share and 42 route share. There's not much likelihood of significant workload growth with Terry McLaurin locked in as the No. 1 receiver and Noah Brown playing well as the No. 2, but Zaccheaus has been shockingly busy when he does get on the field, drawing targets on a team-high 31.0 percent of routes (albeit with a lot of those being screen passes). In any case, there's always risk of the volume not being there when the snap counts are so low, and Zaccheaus had just one catch for 10 yards in the previous game, Week 5 against Cleveland. Expectations should remain modest for Week 7, even in a favorable matchup against the 1-5 Panthers.

McCaffrey caught his lone target for five yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Ravens.

McCaffrey continues to get most of the slot snaps for Washington but has been targeted on just 11 percent of his routes this season, whereas fellow Washington wide receivers Terry McLaurin, Noah Brown and Olamide Zaccheaus have all been targeted on at least 25.0 percent of theirs. McCaffrey may see more passes as his rookie season progresses, but he can't be counted on for much Week 7 at Carolina.

Brown caught four of eight targets for 58 yards in a 30-23 loss at Baltimore on Sunday.

Brown returned to his role as the No. 2 receiver after missing Week 5 with a groin injury. His 66.0 percent route share was third best on the team, behind only WR Terry McLaurin (79 percent) and TE Zach Ertz (76 percent), and Brown led the team in both targets and air yards (101). While Brown doesn't get quite as many snaps/routes as a typical starter, he's been targeted at a surprisingly high rate this year, seeing the ball on 25.0 percent of his routes and accounting for 24.0 percent of Washington's air yards in his active games. A favorable Week 7 matchup against the Panthers makes Brown a reasonable lineup option for deep-ish leagues and DFS contests.

Darden reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday, according to the NFL's official transaction log.

The wide receiver played on seven of 57 offensive snaps, caught one pass for six yards and returned two punts for 26 yards during Cleveland's 20-16 loss to Philadelphia on Sunday. Darden ranked behind Jerry Jeudy (52 snaps), Amari Cooper (47 snaps), Elijah Moore (38 snaps) and Cedric Tillman (21 snaps) in total snap count.

Westbrook-Ikhine brought in his only target for a nine-yard touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Colts.

Westbrook-Ikhine continued to see the majority of his work on special teams, though he did see his first target of the season. He converted that opportunity into a nine-yard touchdown catch midway through the first quarter as he went uncovered into the corner of the end zone.
