Palmer (groin) finished with four receptions (on seven targets) for 60 yards in Monday's 20-17 loss to Dallas.

Palmer finished second in receiving for the Chargers after being labeled as questionable with a groin injury that popped up late in the practice week. The 24-year-old produced solid results similar to his last two games after replacing the injured Mike Williams (knee). With the latter done for the season and rookie Quentin Johnston recording zero catches (on two targets) Monday, Palmer will continue to fill a key role as Justin Herbert's No. 2 option when the Chargers take on the Chiefs this Sunday.

Allen hauled in seven receptions (on 11 targets) for 85 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 20-17 loss to the Cowboys.

Allen continued his dominant start to the campaign out of the Chargers' bye week, recording his 42nd reception and scoring his fourth touchdown in just five games this season. The 31-year-old appeared to have lost a step after a down year in 2022, but he put an end to talks surrounding his decline with a current pace that projects new career bests in receptions, yards and touchdowns. Allen will continue to operate as Justin Herbert's top receiving option against the Chiefs this Sunday.

Gallup secured three of 10 targets for 24 yards in the Cowboys' 20-17 win over the Chargers on Monday.

Gallup's team- and season-high target total largely went for naught against an aggressive Chargers defense, leading to another modest showing for the veteran wideout. He's now recorded less than 25 receiving yards in four of the first six games, and he's followed up a solid two-game surge in Weeks 3-4 when he posted an 11-152-0 line on 13 targets with just five receptions for 39 yards in the next pair of contests. Gallup's next opportunity to reverse course comes in a Week 8 home matchup against the Rams on Sunday, Oct. 29 following a Week 7 bye.

Cooks secured all four targets for 36 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for 14 yards in the Cowboys' 20-17 win over the Chargers on Monday.

Cooks' modest yardage total was nevertheless a season high, and he propped up it up with a two-yard scoring grab early in the fourth quarter that served as his first touchdown in a Cowboys uniform. The veteran speedster has strictly played a complementary role thus far in Dallas' air attack, and he'll next face his former Rams squad during a Week 8 home matchup on Sunday, Oct. 29 following a Week 7 bye.

Lamb secured all seven targets for 117 yards in the Cowboys' 20-17 win over the Chargers on Monday.

Lamb led the way in receiving yards for the Cowboys on the night while notching a 100 percent catch rate. Both the reception and yardage totals were Lamb's second highest of the season, and the standout performance snapped a three-game downturn that had seen Lamb record 53 receiving yards or less in each contest. Lamb and the Cowboys next face the Rams at home on Sunday, Oct. 29 following a Week 7 bye.

Agnew received no targets, returned one kickoff for 53 yards and returned one punt for six yards during Sunday's 37-20 win against the Colts.

The 28-year-old played 20 offensive snaps as Jacksonville's No. 3 wideout with Zay Jones (knee) unavailable but went without a target for the second straight game. Agnew caught four passes for 49 yards in Week 3, but in four other games this season he has just one reception for five yards and three carries for minus-1 yard.

Philips recorded one reception on two targets for six yards in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Ravens.

Philips appeared in his second game of the season and managed a fairly significant increase in snap rate, jumping from 24 to 46 percent. However, his production remained minimal and his performance was defined by a muffed punt that allowed the Ravens to kick a field goal just before halftime. He returned to punt return duties thereafter, so his role on special teams seems secure. On the other hand, Philips will likely continue to see minimal targets.

Thompson reverted to Seattle's practice squad Monday.

Thompson saw playing time on both offense and special teams but didn't record any stats during Sunday's loss to the Bengals. Thompson could be called up again ahead of the Week 7 game against the Cardinals with Dee Eskridge still suspended one more game.

Moore tallied four catches on seven targets for 30 yards and ran for minus-4 yards on three carries during Sunday's 26-9 loss to the Rams.

Moore's target total was a season high, and his carry count matched his biggest of the campaign. He wasn't efficient with those looks however, on his way to his third-fewest yards from scrimmage in six games this year. Prior to Sunday's contest, he was averaging a robust 14.5 yards per carry, so he likely will continue to get opportunities on the ground as long as James Conner (knee) is on IR. Moore will aim to bounce back in Week 7 against a Seahawks defense that has given up the sixth-most catches (90) and third-most TD grabs (seven) to wide receivers this season.

Allen reverted to Philadelphia's practice squad Monday.

Allen did not record any stats during Sunday's loss to the Jets while playing solely on special teams. Allen has now been activated for two games this year and will return to the practice squad and await his next opportunity to be called up.
