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.

Williams caught one of three targets for nine yards and rushed once for minus-7 yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Cardinals.

Williams came crashing back down to earth after racking up 228 scrimmage yards through two games. The speedster's a big-play threat any time he gets the ball in his hands, but Williams' touch floor is much lower than those of wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown or the backfield duo of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery. Williams will look to bounce back on the national stage next week, when the Lions host the Seahawks on MNF.

St. Brown caught seven of eight targets for 75 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Cardinals.

St. Brown caught a five-yard touchdown in the second quarter, then played a key role in Detroit's next touchdown in the final minute of the first half, as St. Brown made a one-yard catch and lateraled to Jahmyr Gibbs, who ran the remaining 20 yards into the end zone. After catching just three of six targets for 13 yards in Week 1, St. Brown has bounced back with 18 catches on 26 targets for 192 yards and a touchdown in two subsequent games, giving the star receiver plenty of momentum heading into a Week 4 home game against the Seahawks on MNF.

Hopkins recorded six receptions on seven targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Packers.

Hopkins has been limited early in the season by a lingering knee injury, and he still played only 45 percent of the Titans' offensive snaps against the Packers, per Turron Davenport of ESPN.com. Even with the continued limited workload, he led the team in all receiving statistics by tallying three catches of at least 15 yards while also tacking on an 11-yard touchdown for his first trip to the end zone of the campaign. Will Levis also looked capable under center against the Packers, providing some hope that Hopkins can put together additional productive performances.

Jennings hauled in 11 of his 12 targets for 175 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.

Jennings filled in for a couple of injured 49ers receiving options Sunday, benefitting greatly from the promotion to deliver three scores and big-time receiving numbers for fantasy managers. San Francisco suffered the loss sans multiple superstars, but Jennings proved that he can elevate his game when called upon. The veteran slot man will undoubtedly be a hot waiver pickup ahead of Week 4 action in fantasy leagues in which he hasn't already been snapped up.
