Smith caught four of five targets for 28 yards in Monday's 25-11 win over Tampa Bay.

Smith failed to reach 40 receiving yards for the first time since Week 9 of last season. After opening the 2023 campaign on a two-game touchdown streak, the 2021 first-round pick took a back seat while A.J. Brown posted a season-high 131 receiving yards and No. 3 wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus chipped in a 34-yard touchdown. Smith's unlikely to be held down for long, and a Week 4 home game against a Washington defense that just gave up 37 points to the Bills offers a nice opportunity to get back on track.

Brown caught nine of 14 targets for 131 yards in Monday's 25-11 win over Tampa Bay.

After being limited to 29 receiving yards in Week 2 against the Vikings, Brown gained 28 on Philadelphia's first pass of the game. That play set the tone for Brown's fourth game over 130 receiving yards since the start of last season. He easily led the team in targets, catches and receiving yards while setting season highs in all three categories. Brown scored 11 touchdowns in 2022, but he's still looking for his first score of 2023 heading into a Week 4 home game against the Commanders.

Moore recorded two receptions on three targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Browns.

Moore has been a part-time player in Tennessee's offense through three weeks and seen limited targets as a result. However, he has provided a big-play threat to the team's pass-catching corps, which he displayed on a 33-yard gain shortly before halftime against Cleveland. Moore has 90 receiving yards on only three catches and five targets three games into the season.

Westbrook-Ikhine was not targeted in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Browns.

Westbrook-Ikhine was on the field for 80 percent of the team's snaps, so he maintained a significant role in the offense. However, he was most notably out-targeted by Chris Moore, who managed two receptions for 41 yards. Overall, Tennessee's limited passing offense will hold back any potential for Westbrook-Ikhine to produce consistently this season.

Burks recorded one reception (on six targets) for five yards in Sunday's 27-3 loss to the Browns.

The Titans couldn't get their offense moving at any point against the Browns, and Burks' stat line is an indication of their ineffectiveness. The only positive to take from the performance is that he finished one target shy of DeAndre Hopkins for the team lead. While Burks should continue to see opportunities moving forward, the Tennessee passing offense has been subpar through three weeks due to the play of both Ryan Tannehill and the offensive line, which could continue to hold back his production.

The Vikings reverted Jackson to their practiced squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Jackson was elevated to the active roster for the first time Week 3 and logged one offensive snap along with six special-teams snaps while recording no stats. His elevation came after fellow wideout Jalen Nailor (hamstring) was placed on IR, so Jackson could move up again Week 4 versus Carolina. Even if that's the case, he's unlikely to see much work outside of special teams.

Chosen reverted to Miami's practice squad Monday.

Chosen was elevated to the active roster ahead of the Dolphins' impressive 70-20 win over the Broncos in Week 3, recording a 68-yard touchdown catch on his only reception. The 30-year-old logged 41 offensive snaps in the contest, which was the highest total on the team for a wide receiver. If Jaylen Waddle (concussion) is unable to go again in Week 4 versus the Bills, Chosen could be elevated once again.

Washington reverted to the Chiefs' practice squad Monday.

Washington was elevated for the first time this season ahead of Sunday's 41-10 win over the Bears. The wide receiver operated exclusively as a special-teams option, returning three punts for 33 yards. With Richie James (knee) on injured reserve, Washington is a good bet to continue operating as the team's primary returner for the time being.

Harris reverted to Jacksonville's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Harris saw his first action of the season Week 3, logging seven snaps on offense and 17 on special teams but finishing with no stats. He was elevated to the active roster largely as a result of Zay Jones (knee) missing the contest. Harris could thus be active on game day again Week 4 versus Atlanta if Jones -- who didn't practice at all last week -- is again ruled out.

Winfree reverted to the Colts' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Winfree was active in Week 3 for the third time this season, with all of his snaps over his past two contests coming on special teams. He's yet to record a stat on the campaign. In order for Winfree to be on the team's active roster again this year, the Colts would need to sign him to their 53-man roster.
