Zaccheaus caught all six of his targets for 85 yards in Sunday's 42-14 win over the Cardinals.

Zaccheaus led the Commanders in receiving yards while finishing second on the team in targets behind Terry McLaurin's 10. Washington's run-heavy offense has gone with a WR2 by committee behind McLaurin, and it was Zaccheaus' turn to shine while Noah Brown, Luke McCaffrey and Dyami Brown combined for only 47 receiving yards. Zaccheaus came into this game with only 29 receiving yards all season, so he'll be tough to trust in Week 5 against the Browns despite this breakout effort.

Odunze secured one of three targets for 10 yards in the Bears' 24-18 win over the Rams on Sunday.

The rookie shifted back to a No. 3 role with Keenan Allen returning from a two-game absence due to a heel injury, and he saw a major downturn in production as a result. Odunze's target and yardage totals were his lowest yet through four games, so he'll have plenty of room for improvement in a Week 5 home matchup against the Panthers.

Rice (knee) is feared to have torn his ACL in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Chargers, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Rice will have an MRI on his knee Monday to confirm his injury diagnosis, but if fears of a torn ACL prove true, the injury would be season-ending. The Chiefs already have had injuries to two key skill players on offense, as fellow wide receiver Hollywood Brown (shoulder) is unlikely to play in the regular season and running back Isiah Pacheco (fibula) is in the early portion of a recovery timeline that's expected to stretch 6-to-8 weeks. Rookie first-round pick Xavier Worthy could be asked to step into a larger role in Rice's absence, with Justin Watson, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Skyy Moore and Mecole Hardman also on hand in Kansas City's wide receiver room.

Diggs caught five of nine targets for 69 yards and took his only carry for a six-yard touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Jaguars.

The veteran wideout scored his first career rushing TD in the first quarter, taking a designed run to the right before reversing field and darting into the end zone through traffic in the middle of the field. Diggs has been a distant second to Nico Collins so far in terms of target volume, but he's still been productive to begin his first season with Houston, scoring three total touchdowns in four games while adding a 25-233 receiving line on 33 targets. Diggs gets an opportunity at a revenge game Week 5 against the Bills, the team that traded him to the Texans in April.

Jennings turned three receptions (six targets) into 88 yards in Sunday's 30-13 victory over New England.

Jennings failed to replicate last week's three-score performance for eager fantasy managers, but the veteran receiver still led the 49ers in targets and receiving yards, and that was with fellow starters Deebo Samuel (calf) and Brandon Aiyuk both active. San Francisco's slot man remains a hot play in fantasy while his role on offense remains enlarged sans Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles). The case can be made for Jennings to start in nearly any format, given his recent production and a favorable home matchup against Arizona on tap for Week 5.

Collins caught 12 of 15 targets for 151 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 win over the Jaguars.

The dozen receptions were a career high for Collins, while his season-high yardage marked the fourth time in 19 career games with C.J. Stroud as his QB that he's topped 150 yards. Collins has hit triple-digit yardage three times in four contests to begin the current campaign, and his 30-489-2 line on 43 targets makes him the first player in Texans history to amass at least 450 yards in the first four games of a season. Collins and the Houston passing game face a tough test in Week 5 against Buffalo.

Harrison caught five of six targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 42-14 loss to the Commanders.

Harrison scored a two-yard touchdown on the opening drive and seemed poised for a huge performance against a Commanders defense that had struggled to cover wide receivers, so his final numbers are a bit disappointing given that context. Nonetheless, the standout rookie stretched his touchdown streak to three games (four TDs) and finished with the team lead in receiving yards for an Arizona offense that was without tight end Trey McBride (concussion). Up next for Harrison and the Cardinals is a Week 5 road game in San Francisco.

McLaurin caught seven of 10 targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 42-14 win over the Cardinals.

McLaurin gave the Commanders some additional breathing room with a 10-yard touchdown catch in the fourth quarter, which extended the lead to 35-14. Washington's No. 1 receiver has 152 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the last two games after posting just 39 yards without a touchdown in the first two games of the season, as rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels has started connecting with his top target downfield much more consistently. McLaurin will look to build on his recent success in a Week 5 home game against the Browns.

Kirk caught seven of 12 targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Texans.

The veteran wideout led the Jaguars in receptions and targets, although rookie Brian Thomas out-gained him by 25 receiving yards. Kirk has seen double-digit targets in back-to-back contests, and he appears to have re-asserted himself as Trevor Lawrence's most reliable downfield option, capping his performance Sunday with his first TD of the season on an eight-yard grab in the third quarter. Kirk will look to keep rolling in Week 5 against the Colts.

Coach Andy Reid said after Sunday's 17-10 win over the Chargers that Rice (knee) will have an MRI on Monday, but the team doesn't expect good news, Tyler Dragon of USA Today reports.

Rice was carted off the field after Patrick Mahomes crashed into his knee as both players were attempting to make a tackle after a Mahomes interception. While an official determination won't be available until after the results of Monday's MRI are known, Rice is likely looking at a multi-week absence, and Reid's somber attitude suggests Rice's injury could prove to be season-ending.
