  • Gabe Davis WR | BUF

    Bills' Gabe Davis: TD streak at four games

    Davis caught six of eight targets for 100 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    The fourth-year wideout did most of his damage in the second half as the Bills tried to mount a comeback, hauling in a 19-yard TD with just over four minutes left in the fourth quarter. The score extended Davis' touchdown streak to four games, a stretch in which he's posted a 16-288-4 line on 22 targets. While he's still the No. 2 option for Josh Allen behind Stefon Diggs, there's more than enough production available in the Buffalo passing game for both receivers. Davis stands an excellent chance of extending his TD streak to five contests in Week 6 against the struggling Giants.

  • Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Healthy scratch Sunday

    Robinson (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Eagles, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Robinson has played in each of the team's first four games, but with limited snaps, and he still has not seen a target on the season. With Cooper Kupp (hamstring) returning, Robinson will be the odd man out in the team's receiving corps.

  • Stefon Diggs WR | NE

    Bills' Stefon Diggs: Tops century mark again

    Diggs caught eight of 11 targets for 121 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    The Buffalo offense stayed on the plane for most of the first half of the game in London, but Diggs got into the end zone late in the second quarter to get his squad on the board, then was Josh Allen's favorite target after halftime as the Bills tried to mount a comeback. Diggs has topped 100 receiving yards in four of five games to begin the season while scoring five TDs, and he doesn't figure to slow down in Week 6 against the struggling Giants.

  • Tank Dell WR | HOU

    Texans' Tank Dell: Getting checked for concussion

    Dell is questionable to return to the second half of Sunday's game against the Falcons while receiving an evaluation for a concussion.

    Dell appeared to hit his head hard on the turf when he reeled in a key third-down catch in the second quarter. He'll get examined in the locker room before a determination is made if he's fit to return. If Dell's day is over, he'll finish the Week 5 contest with three receptions for 57 yards on four targets. He also carried twice for minus-4 yards.

  • Puka Nacua WR | LAR

    Rams' Puka Nacua: Set to work with Kupp on Sunday

    Nacua is welcoming Cooper Kupp (hamstring) to the Rams' receiving corps for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    With Kupp sidelined for the first four games of the campaign, Nacua has been off and running as quarterback Matthew Stafford's favorite receiver, turning a whopping 52 targets into 39 catches for 501 yards and one touchdown. Now that Kupp is off IR and ready to roll, Nacua figures to experience a downturn in looks from Stafford, but the rookie fifth-round pick also may be able to approach his early pace as a pro with more advantageous matchups. Nacua will be looking to produce against a Cincinnati defense that has allowed the 18th-most YPC (7.8) to opposing wideouts this season.

  • Tee Higgins WR | CIN

    Bengals' Tee Higgins: Inactive versus Cardinals

    Higgins (rib) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Higgins was forced out of last weekend's game against the Titans due to a rib fracture, and though the wideout was able to log a limited practice session Friday, he'll sit this one out. In his absence Sunday, Tyler Boyd figures to see added opportunities alongside top WR Ja'Marr Chase, with Trenton Irwin a candidate to serve as the team's No. 3 WR and Andrei Iosivas and Kwamie Lassiter on hand in reserve. Higgins' next chance to suit up will arrive next weekend against the Seahawks, though it's possible that the Bengals could consider holding him out again, given that the team is on bye Week 7.

  • Jaguars' Christian Kirk: Finishes with 78 yards in win

    Kirk caught six of eight targets for 78 yards and rushed once for six yards during Sunday's 25-20 win over the Bills.

    The 26-year-old tied for the team lead in targets, with his biggest contribution coming early in the first quarter on a 30-yard reception to help set up Jacksonville's first touchdown. Kirk was a non-factor in the season opener with just one grab for nine yards, but he's been much more involved over the past four games with 29 receptions for 326 yards and one touchdown.

  • Calvin Ridley WR | TEN

    Jaguars' Calvin Ridley: Leads receiving corps

    Ridley caught seven of eight targets for 122 yards and carried twice for 14 yards during Sunday's 25-20 win against the Bills.

    The 28-year-old tied for the team lead in targets and led Jacksonville in both receptions and receiving yards as Trevor Lawrence passed for more than 300 yards for the first time this season. Ridley topped 100 receiving yards in the season opener but totaled just 110 yards over the subsequent three games, and his resurgence in production Sunday is a welcome sight after a few quiet performances.

  • Patriots' Demario Douglas: Leaves Sunday's game

    Douglas exited Sunday's game against the Saints with a head injury, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

    Prior to being forced out of the contest, Douglas caught one of his two targets for 24 yards. In his absence, DeVante Parker, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Kendrick Bourne are available to handle the Patriots' Week 5 WR duties.

  • Steelers' Gunner Olszewski: Playing Sunday

    Olszewski is active ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

    The 26-year-old will suit up for the second time this year, and he'll likely be Pittsburgh's main kick returner this Sunday. Olszewski returned one kick for no yards during his only appearance this season.
