Heath was targeted three times and had two receptions for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-19 victory over the Rams.

The Packers were down a pair of wideouts in Week 5 and the biggest beneficiary was Heath, who got the start and played just as many snaps as Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks. Heath will be behind both players, as well as Christian Watson (ankle) and Romeo Doubs (suspension), when the position group is at full strength, but he -- and not Bo Melton -- is the No. 5 option at wide receiver for the Packers.

Melton was targeted twice and had one reception for 12 yards in Sunday's 24-19 victory over the Rams.

It was thought that Melton would get additional opportunities with Christian Watson (ankle) and Romeo Doubs (suspension) out for Week 5, but instead Malik Heath saw 45 snaps to Melton's 29. Doubs is due back in Week 6 and Watson may not be far behind, so Melton's brief window for potential value may have already closed.

Tremayne reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday.

Tremayne received the promotion to bolster Washington's receiver depth with Noah Brown (groin) out of action. the Stanford product got on the field for five offensive snaps, seeing one target, which was caught for a two-yard loss.

Taylor reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Monday.

Taylor was elevated to the active roster with Jacob Cowing (shoulder) and Chris Conley (oblique) inactive for Sunday's loss to the Cardinals. However, the 30-year-old only saw two snaps on offense and was not targeted.

Johnson reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Monday.

Johnson caught his only target for a nine-yard gain in Pittsburgh's Week 5 loss. He'll work to get another chance with the active roster in Week 6 against the Raiders.

Hodgins reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday.

Hodgins got the callup with Malik Nabers (concussion) out of action. The Oregon State product saw 25 snaps on offense but never saw a target. If Nabers were to remain out in Week 6 against the Bengals, Hodgins would likely see another opportunity with the active roster.

Smith reverted to the Rams' practice squad Monday.

Smith was elevated for his third and final eligible time for Sunday's loss to the Packers. The 27-year-old saw two targets in the matchup, catching both for a total of six yards. If he's going to suit up in Week 7, after the team's bye week, he'll need to be signed to the 53-man roster or waived and re-signed.

Mims caught his lone target for seven yards and carried the ball once for 17 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.

Mims' seven-yard grab Sunday was just his third catch of the season as the second-year wideout continues to play a limited role in Denver's offense. The 22-year-old played just 12 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps in the contest, limiting his opportunities to have an impact. Mims is best left off the fantasy radar as the Broncos head into a Week 6 matchup against the Chargers.

Bachman reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday.

Bachman was elevated to the active roster with Davante Adams (hamstring) out of action. The Wake Forest product saw one snap on offense, and although he handled punt return duties, he only got to handle two fair catches. With Adams likely remaining out for Las Vegas, the 28-year-old Bachman may find himself back with the team for Week 6.

Turner caught one of four targets for 12 yards and added five rushing yards on his lone carry in Sunday's 34-18 loss to the Broncos.

Turner drew the first official start of his three-year career next to Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker, with Davante Adams (hamstring) sidelined for Sunday's contest, but Turner didn't contribute much despite logging a season-high 52 offensive snaps. He could remain quite active in three-wide sets if Adams forces his way out of Las Vegas, as trade rumors continue to swirl ahead of a Week 6 matchup against the Steelers.
