Tillman caught one of three targets for five yards in Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Ravens in Week 4.

Tillman was targeted for the first time this season and made his first NFL grab. All the targets came on the Browns' final possession, including two in the red zone. The rookie remains buried on the WR depth chart and has played only 44 snaps through four weeks, but as he grows more comfortable with the scheme, his role in the passing game could increase coming out of the team's Week 5 bye.

Goodwin caught his lone target for one yard in Sunday's 28-3 loss to Baltimore.

The reception was Goodwin's first of the season. The speedy veteran has played 11.4 percent of the offensive snaps and been targeted five times through the first four weeks. The Browns are off in Week 5.

Peoples-Jones caught one of four targets for seven yards and returned three punts for 24 yards in Sunday's 28-3 loss to the Ravens.

It wouldn't be accurate to say that Peoples-Jones' production suffered with rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center instead of Deshaun Watson (shoulder), as the wideout hasn't seen more than four targets in any game this season and managed a single catch in three of four contests. Peoples-Jones leads Cleveland's wideouts in snaps but has just 14 targets after four weeks. The Browns are off in Week 5.

Moore caught two of four targets for 20 yards and ran once for minus-20 yards in Sunday's 28-3 loss to Baltimore.

The five targets and touches were season lows for Moore, who clearly missed starting quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder). All the team's skill players did, as Cleveland produced just 214 yards of offense with rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center. With a bye week on tap in Week 5, Watson gets extended time to heal, and head coach Kevin Stefanski time to fix a broken offense.

Berrios secured all six of his targets for 43 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Bills.

Berrios also carried the ball once for 11 yards. With River Cracraft (shoulder) out until Week 8 at the earliest, Berrios is clearly Miami's best option as a No. 3 wideout behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, putting him in the mix as a weekly option in deeper fantasy formats. The Dolphins' offense should find more success against the Giants in Week 5.

Rice had three catches on five targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Jets.

Rice finished with a pedestrian stat line in a rare down game from Patrick Mahomes and Kansas City's aerial attack. The defending Super Bowl champions still got the win, and the rookie wideout maintained his role as one of the team's primary options behind star tight end Travis Kelce. Rice's five targets only trailed Kelce's nine, which shows the trust Mahomes and head coach Andy Reid have in him just four games into his pro career. Rice's next chance to grow that trust -- and in turn, his role on offense -- will come on the road against Minnesota next Sunday.

Lazard caught all three of his targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Kansas City.

Lazard wound up finishing as the Jets' leading receiver despite receiving a season-low three targets. The former Packer is averaging just 2.5 receptions through four games with the Jets, but he has been efficient in those limited opportunities by averaging 16.9 yards average per catch. Lazard will continue to start opposite Garrett Wilson when the Jets take on Denver next Sunday, but his lack of targets with Zach Wilson under center instead of Aaron Rodgers (Achilles) makes him a risky fantasy play in most formats.

Wilson turned 14 targets into nine receptions for 60 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chiefs.

Zach Wilson was intent on getting his No. 1 receiver the ball coming off a string of poor performances. The young duo who share a last name couldn't connect in the end zone on any of Wilson's game-high 14 targets, limiting the wideout to a voluminous PPR effort Sunday. Wilson has maintained fantasy value through his quarterback's inconsistent play so far with a rising target count each week this season. It will be tough for Wilson to top the 14 targets from Sunday's narrow defeat, but expect the wideout to be a focal part of the offensive gameplan against the Broncos next Sunday.

Palmer brought in two of three targets for six yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 26-9 win over the Saints on Sunday.

The fleet-footed rookie did his damage close to the line of scrimmage Sunday, recording his second career touchdown on a one-yard grab just before halftime. Deven Thompkins enjoyed a bigger role once Mike Evans exited the game with a hamstring injury, but Palmer could also be in line for more targets Oct. 15 against the Lions if Evans can't recover sufficiently during the Bucs' Week 5 bye.

Thompkins secured all four of his targets for 45 yards and a touchdown, rushed once for 11 yards and returned one punt for seven yards in the Buccaneers' 26-9 win over the Saints on Sunday.

The speedy second-year wideout made good on some extra attention from Baker Mayfield that was brought about by Mike Evans' early exit due to a hamstring injury. Thompkins recorded his first NFL touchdown on a five-yard grab with 3:44 remaining, which gave the Bucs some valuable breathing room. He has already exceeded his modest rookie-season totals of five receptions and 32 yards through just four games in 2023, and if Evans is still sidelined following Tampa Bay's Week 5 bye, Thompkins should be in line for extended opportunity Oct. 15 against Detroit.
