Allen Lazard WR | NYJ
Jets' Allen Lazard: Trending toward playing Monday
Lazard (knee) remains listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Chargers but is expected to play, barring a surprise, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Lazard didn't appear on either of the Jets' first two Week 9 injury reports before being added to the report Saturday, when the knee issue resulted in him being limited in practice. Based on Fowler's report, Lazard may have been given the questionable tag as a matter of precaution, and the veteran wideout should be ready to handle his usual duties as the Jets' No. 2 receiver if he comes out of pregame warmups no worse for the wear. Lazard's status will be clarified when the Jets release their inactive list approximately 90 minutes prior to Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Tyquan Thornton WR | KC
Patriots' Tyquan Thornton: Logs 12 snaps in Week 9
Thornton logged 12 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Commanders while catching one of his four targets for seven yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Per Reiss, all of Thornton's Week 9 snaps came on the Patriots' first three series, with coach Bill Belichick confirming that Thornton -- who had approached the contest dealing with a foot injury -- was available for action afterward. With just three catches on seven targets for 15 yards in three games to date, Thornton is off the fantasy radar for now.

Jalen Reagor WR | MIA
Patriots' Jalen Reagor: One catch Sunday
Reagor was on the field for 49 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Commanders, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
With Kendrick Bourne (knee) on IR and DeVante Parker out with a concussion, Reagor saw his most substantial workload of the season Week 9, though he ended up catching just one of his six targets for 11 yards. Even if Parker is able to return to action this weekend against the Colts, Reagor will remain a speculative option in Week 10 fantasy lineups.

JuJu Smith-Schuster WR | NYG
Patriots' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Catches six passes Sunday
Smith-Schuster was on the field for 23 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Commanders en route to catching six of his seven targets in the contest for 51 yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
With Kendrick Bourne (knee) on IR and DeVante Parker out with a concussion Sunday, Smith-Schuster recorded season highs in catches and receiving yards, though his day ended with a with a pass bouncing off his hands and into the arms of Washington cornerback Jartavius Martin on the Patriots' final play on offense. Looking ahead, Smith-Schuster should have an opportunity to remain a key target for QB Mac Jones in Week 10 against the Colts, but with a combined receiving line of 21-140-1 on 33 targets through seven games, the veteran wide receiver is only an option in deeper fantasy formats.

Jake Bobo WR | SEA
Seahawks' Jake Bobo: Usage drops off in blowout loss
Bobo wasn't targeted in Sunday's 37-3 loss to the Ravens.
Bobo finished with just nine offensive snaps while Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf and Jaxon Smith-Njigba all played at least 40 snaps, despite the fact that Seattle trailed early and had to abandon its run game. That's not encouraging for Bobo's future production, but he at least has a stronghold on the No. 4 wideout role, as Dee Eskridge didn't record an offensive snap Sunday.

Dontayvion Wicks WR | PHI
Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Records season-high 49 yards
Wicks was targeted four times and caught four passes for 49 yards in Sunday's 20-3 victory over the Rams.
Wicks drew four targets for the second time in as many games, and the 49 yards he put up were the most he has accrued in his rookie season. Despite the recent activity he remains Green Bay's No. 4 option at the wideout spot when everyone is healthy. However, he could bump up a notch against a below-average Steelers pass defense in Week 10 if Christian Watson (upper body) is unable to go.
-
Xavier Hutchinson WR | HOU
Texans' Xavier Hutchinson: Used as runner in win
Hutchinson was not targeted and had one carry for 12 yards in Sunday's 39-37 win over the Buccaneers in Week 9.
Hutchinson's 12-yard carry was Houston's longest running play, and he now has three carries for 27 yards for the season. The rookie sixth-round pick has gone six games without being targeted, but he could move up the depth chart if the rib injury that forced John Metchie's exit from Sunday's game causes him to miss time.
-
Jayden Reed WR | GB
Packers' Jayden Reed: Limited in easy win
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.

James Proche WR | TEN
Browns' James Proche: Handles punt returns
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.
