  • Jalen Nailor WR | LV

    Raiders' Jalen Nailor: Four grabs in win

    Nailor caught all four targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 38-33 win over the Jets.

    Both the catches and yards marked new season highs for Nailor, who entered Sunday with eight grabs for 75 yards and no touchdowns across six games. No team uses its receivers less than the Raiders, and Nailor accounted for four of the five targets between he and Tre Tucker against the Jets. Nailor has minimal fantasy appeal headed into next Sunday's road date with the 49ers.

  • Chimere Dike WR | TEN

    Titans' Chimere Dike: Pops up for 5-71-1 without Tate

    Dike caught five of six targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 43-36 overtime loss to the Bengals.

    With Carnell Tate (shoulder) inactive against Cincinnati, Dike receiving the biggest playing-time boost on offense, as he ran 40 routes on Cam Ward's 46 dropbacks. Only Gunnar Helm produced more receiving yards than Dike in the Week 8 defeat, and only Wan'Dale Robinson (six) recorded more catches. With the Titans headed into their Week 9 bye, Tate figures to be back the following week versus Jacksonville. Perhaps Dike can earn more playing time at Elic Ayomanor's expense, and Calvin Ridley's name has been linked to trade speculation.

  • Dolphins' Malik Washington: Snags short TD in loss to Pats

    Washington caught five of six targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-19 loss to New England.

    The five grabs led the team on the afternoon, and Washington capped his performance with a one-yard TD from Malik Willis just before halftime. It was Washington's first score of the season in seven games, and he'll take a 31-329-1 line on 45 targets into a Week 9 meeting with the Lions.

  • Dolphins' Kevin Coleman: Finds paydirt in loss

    Coleman caught all three of his targets for 46 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Patriots.

    Coleman led the team in receiving yards while reeling in multiple passes for the second time this season. The wide receiver's biggest moment of the game came in the fourth quarter when he connected with quarterback Malik Willis for a 35-yard score with 2:04 remaining in regulation. Coleman hasn't been a consistent part of the team's offensive approach this season, catching eight of 21 targets for 82 yards and two scores over seven contests so far.

  • Keenan Allen WR | IND

    Colts' Keenan Allen: Leads team in receiving in loss

    Allen caught all seven targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 42-7 loss to the Jaguars.

    The veteran wideout finished second on the team in targets, three behind Tyler Warren on a day Colts QBs attempted 30 passes. When on the field this season, Allen has been a consistent target-earner who runs routes that are friendly to quarterbacks in the short areas of the field. Not a big-play threat whatsoever at this stage of his career, Allen is averaging a career-low 9.0 yards per catch on 36 grabs this season. He has just one touchdown and is a low-upside WR4 for fantasy purposes headed into next Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

  • Patriots' DeMario Douglas: Hauls in long TD in win

    Douglas caught all three of his targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Dolphins.

    Most of his production came on a nifty 48-yard catch and run in the fourth quarter, as Douglas took a strike from Drake Maye along the sideline but then curled back toward the middle of the field and dashed the remaining 30 yards to the end zone while out-racing four Miami defenders. It was the fourth touchdown of the season for the fourth-year wideout, a new career high, and Douglas will take a 26-332-4 line on 37 targets through eight games into a Week 9 tilt against the Packers.

  • Caleb Douglas WR | MIA

    Dolphins' Caleb Douglas: Four grabs in defeat

    Douglas caught four of six targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Patriots.

    In his second game back from a multi-week high-ankle sprain, Douglas led the team with 31 routes on Malik Willis' 36 dropbacks against New England. The rookie wideout's six targets tied Greg Dulcich and Malik Washington for the team lead on a day Willis targeted nine different pass catchers. Through four games this season, Douglas has 13 grabs for 226 yards and two touchdowns on 19 targets. He's a low-volume big-play threat on the outside for Miami, but Douglas will be in the mix as a streamer for next Sunday's date with a leaky Lions secondary.

  • Ladd McConkey WR | LAC

    Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Team-high yardage total in loss

    McConkey brought in four of six targets for 86 yards in the Chargers' 24-9 loss to the Rams on Sunday.

    McConkey finally shook off the concussion that led to his exit from a Week 6 loss to the Chiefs during Week 8 prep, and despite the fact Tre' Harris was also back from a hamstring injury, the former still led the Chargers in receiving yards and targets. The yardage tally was also a season high for McConkey, who is averaging a career-best 16.8 yards per reception on his 17 catches to date. Los Angeles' air attack showed some improvement Sunday following some retooling during the Week 7 bye, and McConkey figures to remain the top target on the winless Bolts in a Week 9 home matchup against the Texans next Sunday.

  • Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Four catches in Week 8 victory

    Sutton caught all four of his targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City.

    For the fourth straight game, Sutton failed to see more than five targets, but his four grabs and 53 yards were both season highs. It's been a rough campaign so far for the 31-year-old receiver in an inconsistent Broncos aerial attack, and Sutton will take a 20-221-1 line on 37 targets through eight games intro a Week 9 clash with the Panthers.

  • Jaylen Waddle WR | DEN

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: Makes key grabs in Week 8 win

    Waddle caught three of six targets for 39 yards and a touchdown and added a two-point conversion in Sunday's 28-24 win over Kansas City.

    Despite the fact that the wideout is playing through a chest injury, Waddle came up big when it counted, connecting with Bo Nix on a one-yard TD in the second quarter before snagging a two-point conversion in the fourth as Denver mounted a comeback from a 24-13 deficit. Waddle's 29-315-2 line on 51 targets through his first eight games as a Bronco is disappointing, but he still has time to pick up the pace beginning with a Week 9 tilt against the Panthers.
