Doubs caught three of five targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-19 loss to the Steelers.

Doubs opened the scoring with an eight-yard catch in the back corner of the end zone to cap Green Bay's first offensive drive. That grab gave Doubs his sixth touchdown through nine games this season. His scoring impact helps compensate for his somewhat limited yardage upside, as Doubs has now gone five straight appearances with under 40 receiving yards.

Johnson caught one of four targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 23-19 win over the Packers.

Johnson was hardly a factor despite the Packers missing top cornerback Jaire Alexander (shoulder). With the Steelers finishing with 205 yards on the ground, however, Johnson wasn't the only pass catcher with a limited output. The wideout will now turn his attention toward next Sunday's divisional clash versus the Browns, who he did not face earlier this season due to injury.

Samuel (shoulder) caught all four of his targets for 30 yards while rushing three times for 29 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-3 win over Jacksonville.

Samuel's four catches in his first action since Week 6 ranked second on the team behind Christian McCaffrey's six. The versatile receiver's biggest play came on the ground, though, as Samuel produced a 23-yard touchdown run to give the 49ers a 27-3 lead in the third quarter. Samuel has one receiving touchdown and two rushing scores through seven appearances, and he appears healthy heading into a Week 11 home game against the Buccaneers.

Evans brought in six of 10 targets for 143 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 20-6 win over the Titans on Sunday.

Evans led the Buccaneers in receptions, receiving yards and targets by a wide margin, and he narrowly missed out on a two-touchdown day due to a rare second-half drop in the end zone. However, he more than made up for it, not just with his 22-yard scoring grab late in the third quarter, but via his standout yardage total as well, which qualified as his second highest of the campaign. Evans has now scored in three of the past four contests and therefore carries ample momentum into a Week 11 road showdown against the 49ers.

Pickens caught three of four targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 23-19 win over the Packers.

Pickens led Pittsburgh in all major receiving categories, which evidenced the team's struggles in the passing game Sunday, when quarterback Kenny Pickett managed just 126 yards. With 205 yards on the ground, however, the Steelers didn't need Pickens to have a big day to secure another close victory. The wideout will now turn his attention toward Week 11's meeting with the Browns, who he posted 127 yards and a touchdown against earlier this season.

Brooks is active for Sunday's Week 10 matchup and in line to serve as the No. 5 receiver against the Giants with KaVontae Turpin (shoulder) inactive, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Brooks last saw active status Week 6 and has yet to record his first NFL catch across 20 snaps over two games. The rookie seventh-round pick doesn't necessarily have a good chance of breaking the ice in that regard Sunday, however, considering all of CeeDee Lamb, Brandin Cooks, Michael Gallup and Jalen Tolbert are ahead of him in the air attack's pecking order.

Eskridge (coach's decision) has been ruled inactive ahead of Sunday's contest with the Commanders.

Eskridge will sit out after he failed to log an offensive snap in last week's loss to the Ravens. The 2021 second-round pick has appeared in two games since serving a six-game suspension to begin the season, but he's yet to log a target this season. In his absence, Dareke Young and Jake Bobo will serve as Seattle's fourth and fifth wideouts behind starters DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Campbell (hamstring) is active for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Cowboys, Art Stapleton of TheRecordSports.com reports.

Campbell will therefore be available to handle his usual reserve receiver duties and primary kickoff returner role. The veteran offseason addition has 18 receptions for 100 yards and 155 kick return yards through nine games this season.

Turpin (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's Week 10 game against the Giants, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Turpin was never able to get on the practice field during Week 10 prep and was believed to be trending toward an absence as a result, and that is now officially confirmed. With the speedy reserve wideout and primary returner out of action Sunday, rookies Jalen Brooks and Deuce Vaughn are in line to fill his No. 5 receiver role and special-teams duties, respectively, versus New York.

Samuel (toe) is active for Sunday's game at Seattle.

After missing a Week 9 road matchup with the Patriots due to a toe injury that he suffered one week prior, Samuel was able to practice in a limited capacity during Week 10 prep before the Commanders gave him a questionable designation. Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reported Saturday that Samuel was in line to play Sunday, which has come to fruition. Samuel thus will be available against a Seahawks defense that has allowed the ninth-most catches (118) to opposing wide receivers in eight contests this season.
