Reed had three receptions for 19 yards and one carry for 21 yards in Sunday's 20-3 victory over the Rams.

The Packers leaned heavily on the ground game in Sunday's comfortable win, which resulted in their tight ends all spending extra time on the field and Reed playing fewer than 40 percent of the snaps for the first time in his rookie season. Green Bay's next opponent, Pittsburgh, has been pretty friendly to receivers over the course of the campaign, so Reed will have a chance to bounce back in Week 10 -- particularly if fellow wideout Christian Watson is out or limited after sustaining several injuries against Los Angeles.

Proche was not targeted and returned six punts for 55 yards in Sunday's 27-0 win over Arizona.

Proche, who was promoted to the active roster after being signed to the practice squad earlier in the week, had six snaps on offense. The Browns earlier in the week traded away their primary punt returner, Donovan Peoples-Jones, which opened up a role for Proche on special teams. However, David Bell (knee) could also compete for the top return job once he's healthy.

Tillman caught his lone target for three yards in Sunday's 27-0 win over Arizona in Week 9.

The 2023 third-round pick was the main beneficiary of the Donovan Peoples-Jones trade, as well as an injury absence for David Bell (knee). Tillman played a season-high 54 snaps, bettering his previous high of 14, but much like Peoples-Jones, the usage didn't translate into much volume. Marquise Goodwin, also in the mix for more run as a deep threat for the Browns, saw only eight snaps before leaving the game in the third quarter with a concussion.

Campbell brought in both of his targets for 15 yards and compiled 110 yards on five kick returns in a Week 9 loss to Las Vegas.

Campbell's receiving output was far from prolific, but it was a step up after he failed to receive a target while playing on just seven offensive snaps combined over New York's previous three contests. The Giants' passing game has struggled all season and is now facing the potential loss of QB Daniel Jones (knee), so there's a possibility that the coaching staff could look to put the ball in the hands of the speedy Campbell more often in order to try to generate a spark. With either rookie UDFA Tommy DeVito or career backup Matt Barkley under center, however, the upside of all the team's receiving options will be even more limited than they have been.

Hyatt finished Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Raiders with two catches on five targets for 19 yards.

Hyatt's five targets tied for second on the team, but those opportunities yielded limited production. The rookie speedster did at least manage to turn things around a bit after he failed to garner a target at all last week against the Jets, but Hyatt's role and performance continue to be volatile. He has failed to register a catch in four contests this season, but Hyatt also posted an 89-yard effort in Week 2 against Arizona and a 75-yard performance in Week 7 against Washington. Daniel Jones may have suffered a season-ending knee injury Sunday, leaving the Giants' already struggling passing game potentially in the hands of rookie UDFA Tommy DeVito and/or veteran backup Matt Barkley. That doesn't help Hyatt's outlook, but even with Jones under center the young wideout hasn't been able to put up the type of consistent numbers that would make him a reliable fantasy asset.

Boyd caught three of his five targets for 56 yards in Sunday's 24-18 win over the Bills.

Boyd finished in a tie for fourth on Joe Burrow's target rankings Sunday, but he managed to rip one of his three receptions for 32 yards to finish second behind Tee Higgins for total yardage. The 56 yards also represents a new single-game high for the 29-year-old through eight games this season. Boyd appears to be heating up alongside Burrow after scoring a touchdowns in consecutive games leading up to Sunday's solid effort. The veteran slot man's fantasy stock is pointing upwards heading into a Week 10 matchup against the Texans next Sunday.

Higgins caught eight of nine targets for 110 yards in Sunday's 24-18 win over the Bills.

Higgins finished as the Bengals' leading receiver while also recording his first game with 100 or more receiving yards this season. The 24-year-old experienced a steep drop in production this year, but a large part of that was tied to Joe Burrow's early-season struggles from a calf injury out of camp. Now that his quarterback has returned to form in recent weeks, we have seen Higgins follow suit with 13 receptions for 179 yards in his last two contests. A third consecutive strong outing against the Texans next Sunday would help restore some of the luster that was lost from Higgins' star earlier this season.

Shakir brought in all four targets for 57 yards and returned one kickoff for 27 yards in the Bills' 24-18 loss to the Bengals on Sunday night.

Shakir finished third on Buffalo in receiving yards on the night and tied James Cook for the same slotting in receptions and targets, making it a solid encore to his career-best 6-92 line in the Week 8 win over the Buccaneers. Shakir notably had a much bigger role in the air attack Sunday than No. 2 receiver Gabe Davis, who didn't gather in either of his two targets. Nevertheless, Shakir figures to remain in the No. 3 role, at least on the depth chart, in a Week 10 Monday night home matchup against the Broncos on Nov. 13.

Chase caught four of eight targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 24-18 win over the Bills.

Chase took a back seat to Tee Higgins (8-110-0), who finished as the Bengals' leading receiver Sunday. The usual No. 1 option also ceded a pair of touchdowns in the red zone to tight ends Drew Sample and Irv Smith Jr., resulting in a down performance by the wideout's lofty standards. Chase was coming off of a massive three-game stretch in which he produced 31 receptions, 372 yards and four touchdowns for fantasy owners, which helps soften the blow of Sunday's underwhelming line. In positive news, Joe Burrow continues to excel as his health returns, putting Chase in a prime position to bounce back against the Texans next Sunday.

Diggs brought in six of seven targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 24-18 loss to the Bengals on Sunday night. He also caught a two-point conversion pass.

Diggs led the team in receiving yards and also gave the Bills a glimmer of hope with a 17-yard touchdown grab with 3:32 remaining and subsequent two-point conversion catch. The perennial Pro Bowler has a solid 21-214-2 line on 31 targets in the three contests since his four-game streak of 100-yard efforts was snapped, and he'll draw a potentially favorable matchup against the Broncos in a Week 10 Monday night home battle on Nov. 13.
