Moore caught three of six targets for 70 yards in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Giants in Week 10.

The return of Brandin Cooks, who was inactive Week 9 against the Eagles, reduced Moore's playing time, but he remained a significant part of the passing game. He's third on the depth chart, but Moore is approaching career highs in catches, yards and targets.

Jones caught one of three targets for 33 yards during Sunday's 27-17 loss to Kansas City.

The 32-year-old played only 69 percent of Jacksonville's offensive snaps while Christian Kirk and Zay Jones saw every-down roles and combined for 22 targets. It's the second time in the past three games Jones (Marvin, that is) has failed to record more than one reception. He enters Jacksonville's Week 11 bye with 28 catches for 346 yards and one touchdown through nine contests.

Woods did not catch his lone target in Sunday's 39-17 loss to Miami.

All of Cleveland's active wideouts were targeted in the blowout loss, as they fell behind by multiple scores early in the second half. Woods is playing catchup after missing the first five weeks of the season, but the rookie has moved ahead of Anthony Schwartz to fourth on the depth chart.

Schwartz caught his lone target for three yards in Sunday's 39-17 loss to the Dolphins in Week 10.

Schwartz hauled in his first pass since Week 1 while playing 12 snaps, his most since Week 6. He's been marginalized due to a series of mistakes and drops, sitting fifth on the wide receiver depth chart. For a time in 2021, Schwartz held a return role on kickoffs, but that spot now belongs to rookie Jerome Ford.

Bell caught three of five targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 39-17 loss to Miami.

The five targets were a season high for Bell, who finished ahead of Amari Cooper in that category. The increased number of looks was due to the Browns needing to throw often after falling behind, but when they've been able to rely on Nick Chubb and the running attack, Bell hasn't been involved in the offense much yet beyond a target or two.

Aiyuk caught six of seven targets for 84 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Chargers.

Aiyuk continued to produce like the 49ers' top wideout even with Deebo Samuel (hamstring) back in action. The 24-year-old did lose a fumble early in the game, the only blemish in his fourth straight game with 80 or more receiving yards. Aiyuk is beginning to deliver on some of the first-round potential the 49ers saw when they selected him in 2020 while also evolving into an asset fantasy managers can trust during his current hot streak. The YAC machine will look to stay hot against the Cardinals in Mexico City next Monday.

Samuel (hamstring) had two receptions (six targets) for 24 yards to go along with four rushing attempts for 27 yards in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Chargers.

Samuel returned from a one-game absence due to a hamstring injury after practicing in full this week. The dual threat wasn't visibly limited, exhibiting his signature explosiveness on a couple of hard runs. The four carries and six targets are in line with Samuel's season averages, so concerns over the return of Elijah Mitchell (knee) and the addition of Christian McCaffrey cutting into his usage were put to rest. Samuel will look to follow up this down game with a strong performance against a vulnerable Arizona defense next Monday.

Westbrook-Ikhine recorded five receptions on eight targets for 119 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Broncos.

Westbrook-Ikhine entered Sunday's game having seen only 15 targets across eight games, so his eight targets were a significant surprise. He didn't waste the opportunity, tallying nine and 63-yard touchdowns -- the latter of which he ran uncovered down the left sideline. The Broncos were one of the few teams that have proven capable of slowing Derrick Henry, which led to increased opportunity for Tennessee's pass catchers, though that isn't likely to continue moving forward.

Hinton recorded four receptions on five targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to Tennessee.

Denver entered the game without KJ Hamler (hamstring), and Jerry Jeudy (ankle) was injured on the first play from scrimmage. That opened the door for Hinton to serve a significant role in the offense, and he took advantage by tallying long receptions of 35 and 17 yards. Hinton's role moving forward will be heavily dependent on the health of Jeudy and Hamler, though he showed the ability to capitalize when provided an opportunity Sunday.

Carter caught all four of his targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-16 loss to the 49ers.

Carter was the recipient of a wide-open touchdown to begin the Chargers' opening possession, but the speed receiver was held relatively in check from that point forward as the 49ers limited any subsequent big plays. Carter's been an offensive factor with both Keenan Allen (hamstring) and Mike Williams (ankle) sidelined, but both receivers could be returning soon, which would relegate the 29-year-old back to his typical special teams duties.
