  • Tre Tucker WR | LV

    Raiders' Tre Tucker: Gains 38 yards in OT loss

    Tucker finished with three receptions on four targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime loss to Jacksonville.

    Tucker produced the most yards from any Las Vegas wide receiver Sunday, but he finished a distant third behind TE Brock Bowers (12-127-3) and RB Ashton Jeanty (5-47-1) in receiving. The 24-year-old Tucker has seen his production peter out following his outlier three-score performance back in Week 3, averaging 3.8 receptions and 43.2 yards with no touchdowns in the five games since. Tucker should be viewed as a deep-league option heading into next Sunday's tilt versus the Broncos.

  • Jaguars' Parker Washington: Leading receiver in OT win

    Washington corralled eight of nine targets for 90 yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime win over Las Vegas.

    Washington led the Jaguars in receiving Sunday with Travis Hunter (knee) being placed on injured reserve this week. It also helped that starter Brian Thomas (ankle) left the contest late in the fourth quarter, but most of Washington's production came with Thomas still active. Expect the 23-year-old to continue seeing extended run for as long as Hunter remains out. Washington's value could inflate further if Thomas is also unable to suit up against the Texans next Sunday.

  • Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Re-emerges with 73 yards Sunday

    Brown had two receptions on four targets for 73 yards in Sunday's 28-21 loss to Buffalo.

    Brown resurfaced after being held without a catch in last week's rout of the Raiders. The Chiefs were playing from behind for most of this contest, which helps explain the deep threat's increased involvement Sunday. Brown's four targets checked in at fourth among Kansas City receiving options, a trend that should continue moving forward now that the team's receiving corps is back to full strength. Brown's reduced role should keep him in deep-league territory for fantasy purposes against the Broncos in Week 10.

  • Tory Horton WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Tory Horton: Steps up for injured starter on SNF

    Horton finished with four receptions on as many targets for 48 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-14 rout of the Commanders.

    Horton filled in for injured starter Cooper Kupp (heel/hamstring) on Sunday Night Football, resulting in the first multi-score game of his young career. The 2025 fifth-round pick wasted no time seizing his opportunity, catching touchdown passes on consecutive scoring drives out of the gates for Seattle. Horton's production was muted in the second half after Sam Darnold began spreading the ball around to auxiliary options in the blowout victory. It is unclear how much more time Kupp will miss (if any), but Horton certainly made his case for more targets moving forward as Seattle prepares to host Arizona next Sunday.

  • Deebo Samuel WR | WAS

    Commanders' Deebo Samuel: Modest production in blowout loss

    Samuel recorded five receptions on six targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Seahawks. He added one rush for three yards as well as one kick return for 30 yards.

    No Commanders offensive skill-position player had a particularly strong showing in Sunday night's loss, though Samuel did lead the team in both targets and receptions. His most significant contribution was a 19-yard gain that came primarily after the catch late in the third quarter. Samuel may still be slowed by a heel injury, having logged three straight games with 45 yards from scrimmage or fewer. His chance of turning things around moving forward is also complicated by the likely absence of Jayden Daniels (arm).

  • Andrei Iosivas WR | CIN

    Bengals' Andrei Iosivas: Productive effort in win

    Iosivas brought in five of seven targets for 66 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for four yards in the Bengals' 47-42 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

    Iosivas tied a season high in receptions and targets while generating his second-best receiving yardage tally of the campaign. The third-year wideout also recorded his first touchdown of the season at a key moment, making a nine-yard scoring grab with just under a minute remaining to complete a rally from a 41-27 fourth-quarter deficit. Iosivas remains a clear tertiary option behind Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins in the Bengals' air attack, but given how prolific Joe Flacco has proven to be in Zac Taylor's offense and Cincinnati's league-worst defense, he retains deep-league fantasy appeal for the time being.

  • Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Gains 140 yards on SNF

    Smith-Njigba corralled eight of nine targets for 129 yards while gaining 11 rushing yards on one attempt in Sunday's 38-14 win over Washington.

    Smith-Njigba extended his impressive streak of recording over 100 receiving yards to four games in Sunday's one-sided affair. It was the breakout superstar's sixth time cracking the century mark in eight starts this year, resulting in a ridiculous 58-948-4 receiving line over that span. JSN will have a prime opportunity to extend his impressive streak of posting triple-digit totals in Week 10 when the Seahawks face the Cardinals' bottom-third ranked pass defense.

  • DJ Moore WR | CHI

    Bears' DJ Moore: Scores via pass and rush

    Moore went 1-for-1 passing for two yards and one touchdown, added four receptions for 72 yards on six targets, and rushed once for 17 yards and one touchdown in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Moore has 145 receiving yards over his last two contests (72 this game and 73 last week) after failing to reach 60 yards in any of his previous five. He's working his way back into weekly WR3 territory with multi-phase involvement boosting his opportunities.

  • Chiefs' Xavier Worthy: Gains 30 yards on four touches

    Worthy had three receptions on seven targets for 23 yards while taking his only carry for seven yards in Sunday's 28-21 loss to the Bills.

    Worthy tied Rashee Rice for the team lead in targets Sunday, but that's about where the good news ends. The 22-year-old Worthy couldn't turn those opportunities into production, finishing fourth in receiving despite garnering such a large share of targets. The speedy gadget receiver is still providing a decent floor for fantasy in his current role, but we haven't seen him explode for a notable performance yet. Perhaps Worthy can finally rip off a long score when the Chiefs return from the upcoming bye to face the Broncos in Week 11.

  • Bears' Olamide Zaccheaus: Finds end zone on eight targets

    Zaccheaus caught six passes for 58 yards and one touchdown on eight targets in the Bears' 47-42 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Zaccheaus scored his first touchdown of the season and led Chicago with eight targets in this game. He profiles as a top-60 receiver while drawing four-plus looks in all but one game this season, but the receiver has just one game with more than 42 yards.
