Shaheed gathered in three of seven targets for 33 yards during Sunday's 26-9 defeat against the Buccaneers. He also returned two kickoffs for 39 yards and ran back two punts for 45 yards.

Shaheed didn't manage to connect on any of the three deep passes that he saw from starting quarterback Derek Carr, who was playing at less than 100 percent after suffering an AC joint sprain against Green Bay in Week 3. The 25-year-old speedster did collect three short passes while also pacing New Orleans' wideout corps in targets, but, he still finished with fewer targets than running back Alvin Kamara (14), who made his season debut after serving a suspension from Week 1 to Week 3. Shaheed has been involved in the Saints' offense during all but one game this season, and his ability to generate big plays whenever he touches has helped make up for his relatively modest 12 catches on 19 targets so far this season.

Gallup recorded five receptions on six targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 38-3 win over the Patriots.

Gallup finished second on the team in targets, receptions and yards, trailing only Jake Ferguson. The majority of his production came on a pair of grabs that went for 29 and 19 yards, both of which occurred on drives that ended in points for Dallas. After starting the season slowly, Gallup has combined to record 11 catches for 152 yards across his last two contests.

Brown had seven receptions on 10 targets for 96 yards in Sunday's 35-16 loss to the 49ers.

Brown overcame the thumb injury that threatened his availability during the practice week leading up to Sunday's tilt. The 2019 first-round pick was unable to extend his touchdown streak to three games, but he still provided value with new season highs in yards and receptions. Brown has transitioned well to becoming Arizona's No. 1 receiver following the offseason trade of DeAndre Hopkins. Hollywood is now averaging 5.3 receptions and 59.8 yards to go with two touchdowns through four games this season. Look for the speedster to continue building a rapport with fill-in starter Joshua Dobbs against the Bengals next Sunday while Kyler Murray (knee) remains sidelined.

Meyers recorded two receptions on four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Chargers.

Meyers had proven to be a key target for Jimmy Garoppolo (concussion) in two games this season, commanding 10 and 12 targets. However, he lost out significantly with Aidan O'Connell under center, as Davante Adams and Josh Jacobs were the only two pass catchers to be targeted more than four times. The good news for Meyers is that Garoppolo is likely to return in time for a Week 5 matchup against the Packers.

St. Brown caught his lone target for 21 yards in the Bears' 31-28 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

With Chase Claypool a healthy scratch, St. Brown took the field for the first time this season. He was targeted 17 times in 13 games last season in 2022, and should continue to play over Claypool and see light target volume.

Jones rushed once for 10 yards in the Bears' 31-28 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

Jones' biggest contribution to the Bears is on special teams. He's yet to see a pass target this season, but he now has two rushing attempts. His current role is unlikely to result in significant fantasy production.

Scott handled two rushes for 19 yards in the Bears' 31-28 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

Despite Justin Fields attempting 35 passes, Scott didn't see a target as a receiver, but he did see work as a runner. With 39 scrimmage yards on the season, Scott will need to see an increase in usage before he can be considered a reliable fantasy option.

Mooney caught all four of his targets for 51 yards in the Bears' 31-28 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.

With Chase Claypool a healthy scratch. Mooney served as the clear No. 2 wide receiver behind DJ Moore. However, Mooney's role led to him seeing just four of Justin Fields' 35 pass attempts. On the season, Mooney has posted at least 51 yards in two of four games, but his upside may be limited if the Bears' offense can't maintain the production it showed against Denver.

Aiyuk (shoulder) corralled all six of his targets for 148 yards in Sunday's 35-16 win over the Cardinals.

Aiyuk was able to return in full capacity after sitting out the 49ers' last game with a minor shoulder injury. The budding fantasy star continued his hot start by breaking the century mark in receiving yards for the second time in three attempts after achieving that feat just once in 2022. Aiyuk has amassed 320 receiving yards on just 20 targets, and Sunday, he put his unique combination of athletic playmaking and sure hands on display against an outmatched Arizona secondary. Now back at full strength, Aiyuk will shift his focus to a Week 4 matchup against a Cowboys team that is without top corner Trevon Diggs (knee) the rest of the season.

Lamb recorded four receptions on six targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-3 win over the Patriots.

Lamb was overshadowed by Jake Ferguson and Michael Gallup in the offense. While that may have been the byproduct of Dallas having a significant advantage on the scoreboard, Lamb has now seen seven or fewer targets in three of four games on the season. Despite the limited volume, he still managed to salvage his fantasy performance with a 20-yard touchdown catch late in the first quarter -- his first trip to the end zone this season. He'll turn his attention to another tough defensive matchup in Week 5, as the Cowboys are set to square off against the 49ers.
