Robinson caught one of four targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the 49ers.

Robinson filled in for a undermanned Rams receiving corps against a division rival. The former Chief, who had two targets in Week 2, still lacks the consistency necessary to be a must-start option in standard fantasy leagues. Robinson should have use in deeper formats heading into Sunday's tilt against the Bears.

Waddle secured four of five targets for 26 yards in the Dolphins' 24-3 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

Like his position mate Tyreek Hill, Waddle saw his considerable upside capped by having to play with Skylar Thompson (ribs), and upon the latter's exit from the contest, Tim Boyle, as his two quarterbacks. Waddle now has back-to-back four-reception outings, and he's netted a forgettable 67 receiving yards in that pair of contests. There's not much reason for optimism in the short term, either, as Tua Tagovailoa's (IR-concussion) future is in limbo and Thompson may have an uphill battle to be ready for a Week 4 Monday night home matchup against the Titans.

Smith-Njigba finished with three receptions on as many targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 24-3 win over the Dolphins.

The Seahawks took care of an undermanned Dolphins squad at home, resulting in a low-output game from Smith-Njigba. The sophomore wideout was coming off of his best game of the season, so fantasy managers should not give up on the youngster. Smith-Njigba will look to be more productive against the Lions next Monday.

Lockett (thigh) garnered eight targets in Sunday's 24-7 win that resulted in five receptions for 46 yards against the Dolphins.

Lockett was cleared of a minor thigh injury prior to Sunday's win, and he led the team in targets with a solid fantasy showing for PPR managers. Seattle's veteran wideout has yet to score a touchdown through three games, but he has recorded 13 receptions for 138 yards. Lockett remains a reliable fantasy option heading into next Monday's tilt against the Lions.

Hill brought in three of five targets for 40 yards in the Dolphins' 24-3 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

Hill set the pace in receiving yards and tied for the team lead in targets as well, but both were essentially hollow achievements in the ragged loss. Hill's production was already likely to be compromised with Skylar Thompson opening the game under center in place of Tua Tagovailoa (IR-concussion), but matters only got worse once journeyman Tim Boyle was forced to replace Thompson in the second half due to the latter's rib injury. The speedy receiver is essentially in limbo for the time being with the state of the team's quarterback position, leaving his fantasy prospects for a Week 4 Monday night home matchup against the Titans decidedly murky.

Ridley recorded one catch on three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Packers.

Ridley had managed decent production despite Will Levis' incompetence for the first two weeks of the season, though he made no impact in Sunday's loss. His lone catch of the game came midway through the third quarter and did set up one of Tennesse's touchdowns. Ridley and all of the Titans' pass catchers are likely to remain volatile due to Levis' inconsistent play.

Watson recorded two receptions on two targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 30-14 win over the Titans.

The Packers were unlikely to be aggressive through the air with Malik Willis under center for the second consecutive week, and they could afford to be even more conservative due to maintaining a significant lead for the majority of the contest. That limited Watson's opportunity, though he did manage catches of 37 and 30 yards in the first half. Jayden Reed has operated as the team's top pass catcher, though Watson should find more consistent production once Jordan Love (knee) can return.

Harrison secured five of 11 targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 20-13 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Harrison logged a team-high number of targets while tying with Michael Wilson for most receiving yards as well, but the highlight of the former's day came early. Harrison logged his third career TD on a 10-yard grab in the first quarter to answer an early Lions touchdown, yet he and Kyler Murray frequently had trouble connecting after that point. The rookie fourth-overall pick has bounced back nicely from his forgettable one-catch, four-yard pro debut against the Bills, but Harrison will look to increase his efficiency against a vulnerable Commanders secondary in a Week 4 home clash.

Reed recorded four catches on six targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 30-14 win over the Titans. He added two rushes for 19 yards.

Given the context of both having Malik Willis under center and the Packers having a comfortable lead for the majority of the game, this was a decent performance for Reed. He operated clearly as Green Bay's top wide receiver, as he was schemed a target on the first offensive play of the game -- which he converted for a 30-yard catch -- and was the only player in the position group to command more than two targets. That bodes well for his production once Jordan Love (knee) can return, which could come as early as a Week 4 matchup against Minnesota.

Aiyuk had five receptions on 10 targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.

Aiyuk failed to deliver in a prime opportunity to prove his new worth, with the 49ers lacking Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles), George Kittle (hamstring) and Deebo Samuel (calf). The wideout provided middling results on 10 targets, notably dropping a pass from Brock Purdy that hit the receiver in the mitts. Aiyuk will look to post big numbers against the Patriots next week after recording a disappointing 11/119/0 receiving line through three contests.
