  • Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Week-to-week with shoulder injury

    Wicks (shoulder) is considered week-to-week, Fox Sports NFL Insider Jordan Schultz reports.

    Wicks exited Sunday's win over the Cardinals due to the shoulder injury. His week-to-week status suggests Wicks could miss Green Bay's Week 7 home game against the Texans, though his participation, or lack thereof, in practice will provide a hint as to his availability. Jayden Reed (ankle), Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs should continue to operate as the Packers' top three receivers.

  • DJ Turner WR | LV

    Raiders' DJ Turner: Makes two receptions in loss

    Turner hauled in two of four targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.

    The third-year wideout drew the start across from Tre Tucker in the absence of both Davante Adams (hamstring) and Jakobi Meyers (ankle), with Turner ultimately logging 42 of 63 offensive snaps. His day was highlighted by a 30-yard reception on the Raiders' final drive of the third quarter, which marked the team's only play of 20-plus yards in the entire contest. Turner has seen exactly four targets in back-to-back games, but Meyers at least appears on track to return from his ankle injury in Week 7 against the Rams.

  • Tre Tucker WR | LV

    Raiders' Tre Tucker: Zero catches in loss

    Tucker failed to haul in either of his two targets in Sunday's 32-13 loss to the Steelers.

    Tucker was on the field for 60 of a possible 63 offensive snaps with fellow receivers Davante Adams (hamstring) and Jakobi Meyers (ankle) sidelined for Sunday's contest, but the 23-year-old speedster was unable to connect with quarterback Aidan O'Connell in the latter's first start of the season. Meanwhile, rookie tight end Brock Bowers continued to impress as he led all Raiders pass catchers with a 9-71-0 receiving line on 10 targets. An easier matchup awaits Tucker against the Rams in Week 7, but his low floor remains a concern.

  • Kalif Raymond WR | CHI

    Lions' Kalif Raymond: Four catches in Week 6

    Raymond caught four of six targets for 73 yards in Sunday's 47-9 win over the Cowboys.

    Raymond played 24 offensive snaps in the victory over Dallas, his highest total since Week 2, and he turned his added opportunities into a season high in both catches and yardage. Entering play Sunday, the wide receiver had only seen five total targets on the year, and he still remains buried behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams and Tim Patrick on Detroit's depth chart. Through five games in 2024, Raymond has caught eight of 11 targets for 109 yards.

  • Tim Patrick WR | NYJ

    Lions' Tim Patrick: Three catches in win

    Patrick caught all three of his targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 47-9 win over the Cowboys.

    Patrick has established himself as the No. 3 wide receiver for the Lions this season, setting season highs in catches and yards against Dallas. The 30-year-old has yet to find the end zone this year and he came up just short with an eight-yard reception in the second quarter, which was originally called a touchdown on the field before being overturned. Patrick has now compiled eight catches for 140 yards over four games with Detroit in 2024.

  • Ryan Flournoy WR | DAL

    Cowboys' Ryan Flournoy: Makes first NFL catch

    Flournoy caught his only target for 12 yards in Sunday's loss to the Lions.

    The 2024 sixth-round pick made his first career catch in the third quarter with Dallas down 37-9, but Flournoy then fumbled it over to Detroit and didn't see another target. Snaps have opened up at wide receiver with Brandin Cooks (knee) on IR, but as yet Flournoy hasn't been able to claim much of a role, and Sunday's fumble won't do him any favors heading into the Cowboys' Week 7 bye.

  • Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Seeing steady work

    Turpin caught four of seven targets for 24 yards and gained six yards on his only carry in Sunday's loss to the Lions. He also added 194 yards on four kickoff returns.

    His biggest play came right before halftime, when Turpin took a kickoff at the back of the end zone and zipped 79 yards to the Detroit 30-yard line. The Cowboys only got a field goal out of it, though, en route to a 47-9 shellacking. The seven targets were a career high for Turpin, and the third-year speedster has hauled in eight catches for 74 yards over two games since Brandin Cooks (knee) was placed on IR. Turpin should remain a secondary part of the passing offense, in addition to his special-teams role, on the other side of the Cowboys' Week 7 bye.

  • Texans' Xavier Hutchinson: Two targets in win

    Hutchinson did not catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 41-21 win over the Patriots in Week 6.

    Hutchinson is the next wideout up after Houston placed Nico Collins (hamstring) on injured reserve, playing 48 snaps and getting targeted three times in Week 5 after Collins left that contest. The Collins injury is unlikely to result in a meaningful role for Hutchinson, who saw 33 snaps Sunday and sits behind Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell on the wide receiver depth chart and below tight end Dalton Schultz as a target. Additionally, the returns of running backs Joe Mixon and Dameon Pierce took pressure off the passing game in Week 6.

  • Nelson Agholor WR | BAL

    Ravens' Nelson Agholor: Makes 25-yard grab Sunday

    Agholor caught one pass for 25 yards on three targets Sunday against the Commanders.

    The veteran has settled into a role in which he's playing roughly 50 percent of the snaps each week. Agholor has drawn at least three targets in each of the last three weeks and four of the last five games overall. However, it's not translating into bankable fantasy production. He only has one game with more than one catch thus far and is sitting at just seven receptions for 114 yards on the season. His 40 percent catch rate should correct as the season wears on, but he does not project to have a significant target share regardless. The Ravens hit the road to take on the Buccaneers in Week 7.

  • Cedric Tillman WR | CLE

    Browns' Cedric Tillman: One touch in loss

    Tillman was not targeted and had one carry for minus-5 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to Philadelphia in Week 6.

    Tillman's lone touch came on a 3rd-and-1 on the Eagles' side of the field and resulted in a longer field-goal attempt for Dustin Hopkins, who was wide right from 52 yards. Tillman went untargeted for a third consecutive week but could grab a larger slice of the target pie in Week 7 depending on the status of Elijah Moore (ribs).
