Watson caught three of five targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Broncos.

Watson's output largely came from a 23-yard reception during the second half. Although he's made a catch of 20-plus yards in each of his three appearances this season, Watson hobbled off the field and was being attended to by trainers after bending awkwardly on his final target late in the game. That situation leaves some monitoring to be done ahead of the Week 8 contest versus the Vikings.

Jeudy caught all five of his targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Packers.

Jeudy hauled in everything thrown his way, resulting in him finishing second to Courtland Sutton in all major receiving categories. Although his 64 yards marked his most since Week 2, Jeudy is still yet to find the end zone through six appearances, tempering his stock ahead of next Sunday's matchup versus the Chiefs.

Godwin recorded six receptions on 12 targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Falcons.

Despite a mediocre line, there are reasons to be optimistic about Godwin's performance and his recent involvement in the offense. He led the team with 12 targets and out-targeted Mike Evans for the first time this season in a game in which both pass catchers played a full snap count. Godwin also recorded a 33-yard reception, his fourth gain of 20 or more yards in his last three games after having only one such catch in his first three contests. However, he'll face a Bills defense in Week 8 that has effectively limited opposing receivers for much of the season.

Brown had three receptions off seven targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 20-10 loss to the Seahawks.

Brown finished as the Cardinals' leading receiver in a loss during which starting quarterback Joshua Dobbs threw for just 146 yards with no passing touchdowns. It resulted in the wideout's second subpar fantasy result in as many weeks. Hollywood has been a streaky option over his five years in the league, so inconsistencies can be expected with an inexperienced journeyman under center for Arizona. Brown will have extra motivation to find the end zone in Week 8 when the Cardinals host his former club, the Baltimore Ravens, next Sunday.

Cooper recorded two receptions on eight targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 39-38 win over the Colts.

Cooper was completely absent from the stat sheet in the first half, as he wasn't targeted by either Deshaun Watson (shoulder) or PJ Walker. He saw his opportunity rise in the second half -- with Walker under center -- though his production remained very underwhelming. As has been the case in past seasons, Cooper has been a boom-bust option. Across six games, he's reached at least 90 yards on three occasions while tallying under 40 in the other three contests.

Doubs caught two of five targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Broncos.

Doubs was awarded his score after he and Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain came down with simultaneous possession from a 16-yard throw during the third quarter. The wideout had another would-be touchdown bounce of his hands into teammate Jayden Reed's on Green Bay's next drive. Despite his team's passing attack enduring growing pains under first-year starter Jordan Love, Doubs' four touchdowns through six games gives him decent value ahead of the Week 8 contest versus the Vikings.

Johnson brought in five of six targets for 79 yards in the Steelers' 24-17 win over the Rams on Sunday.

Johnson enjoyed a successful return from a four-game absence due to a hamstring injury, tying George Pickens for the team lead in receptions while finishing second to him in receiving yards and targets. The fifth-year wideout appeared fully healthy while frequently bedeviling Rams defensive backs with his crisp routes, and he should once again serve as an effective complement to Pickens' downfield exploits in a Week 8 home matchup versus the Jaguars.

Nacua recorded eight receptions on 12 targets for 154 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Steelers.

Nacua had totaled only 97 yards in the two games since Cooper Kupp had returned from injured reserve. However, with Kupp's impact negated by the Steelers' defensive strategy, Nacua re-emerged to record his fourth 100-yard game of the season. The only thing missing from his performance was a trip to the end zone, though he provided the Rams' offense with an explosive element, tallying three catches of at least 30 yards and five that went for at least 20 yards. Nacua won't be as consistent with Kupp in the mix, though this performance clearly illustrates he still has plenty of upside.

Rice brought in five of six targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs' 31-17 win over the Chargers on Sunday.

The rookie continued his recent ascension, scoring his second touchdown in three game on a six-yard grab just before the midway point of the second quarter. Rice also eclipsed the 50-yard mark through the air for the second straight week while pushing his reception total over the last three games to a solid 13 catches. Rice's numbers are especially encouraging in the context of a Chiefs offense that spreads the ball around to a robust amount of players, and he'll look to keep the momentum going in a Week 8 road battle versus the Broncos.

London caught six of seven targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Buccaneers.

London led the Falcons in targets, catches and receiving yards. Three of his four highest yardage totals have come in the last three games, a span in which London has racked up 21 catches on 28 targets for 257 yards. London had a third-quarter catch that was the subject of a fascinating review, as he had the ball come out while flipping through the air near the sideline and reaching for the goal line. It was ultimately determined that London's hand grazed the grass out of bounds, marking him down at the 1-yard line and narrowly avoiding a potential fumble for a touchback. Atlanta's 2022 first-round draft pick is the clear No. 1 option in the passing game heading into a Week 8 matchup with a Tennessee defense that's been more vulnerable through the air than on the ground.
