  • Garrett Wilson WR | NYJ

    Jets' Garrett Wilson: Retaining WR1 role in Week 9

    Wilson will continue serving as New York's No. 1 wide receiver Sunday against the Bills, as Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports that Corey Davis (knee) has been ruled out.

    Wilson thrived in the lead role with Davis sidelined for the team's Week 8 loss to the Patriots, notching a career-high 115 receiving yards. As heavy home underdogs against the AFC East rival Bills, the Jets could be forced into a pass-heavy game plan, which would further benefit Wilson's volume against a tough Buffalo secondary that could be getting cornerback Tre'Davious White (knee) back for this one.

  • Jahan Dotson WR | ATL

    Commanders' Jahan Dotson: Out this week, could return Week 10

    Dotson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Minnesota, but coach Ron Rivera said the team hopes to get the wideout back next week, John Keim of ESPN.com reports.

    Dotson hasn't practiced since suffering a setback Oct. 20, and the Commanders will turn to Cam Sims and/or Dyami Brown for at least one more game in the No. 3 receiver role. A return to practice next week wouldn't necessarily equate to playing in the Week 10 matchup with Philadelphia, but it'd be a good place for the rookie to start. He does have an extra day to get ready with the team's next contest set to be played on a Monday.

  • DeVante Parker WR | PHI

    Patriots' DeVante Parker: Not spotted at practice Friday

    Parker (knee) wasn't present for Friday's practice, Jim McBride of The Boston Globe reports.

    After also sitting out practice Wednesday and Thursday, Parker looks pretty iffy for Sunday's game against the Colts. If he ends up being ruled out for the contest, Tyquan Thornton, Kendrick Bourne and Nelson Agholor would be candidates to see added Week 9 snaps alongside top wide receiver Jakobi Meyers.

  • Russell Gage WR | SF

    Buccaneers' Russell Gage: Won't play this week

    Gage (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Rams, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

    With Gage missing a second straight game, the Bucs again figure to go with Mike Evans (ankle), Chris Godwin and Julio Jones as their top three wide receivers. They also have Scotty Miller, Breshad Perriman and Jaelon Darden as depth options, which could come in handy if Evans has a setback with his ankle or Jones' PCL injury flares up.

  • Corey Davis WR | NYJ

    Jets' Corey Davis: Ruled out for Week 9

    Coach Robert Saleh said Friday that Davis (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Bills, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Davis will miss a second straight game due to his MCL sprain. Saleh did express optimism that Davis will return after the Jets' bye, though, so the wideout could be back in action in time to face New England on Nov. 20. For Sunday's contest against Buffalo, though, Garrett Wilson is left as New York's clear top wideout while Denzel Mims, Braxton Berrios, Elijah Moore and Jeff Smith will round out Zach Wilson's receiving corps.

  • Tyron Johnson WR | DAL

    Texans' Tyron Johnson: Catches lone target in loss

    Johnson caught his lone target for eight yards in Thursday's 29-17 loss to the Eagles in Week 9.

    Johnson was active for the second time since the Texans signed him off the Raiders' practice squad two weeks ago and snared his first reception. His snap count increased from five to 25, but that was due to Brandin Cooks (personal) and Nico Collins (groin) being unavailable. Cooks is expected back for Week 10 against the Giants while Collins' status is murky.

  • Jalen Camp WR | CLE

    Texans' Jalen Camp: One catch in loss

    Camp caught his lone target for seven yards in Thursday's 29-17 loss to Philadelphia in Week 9.

    Both Camp (15 snaps) and Tyron Johnson (25 snaps, one target) were on the active roster with Brandin Cooks (personal) and Nico Collins (groin) inactive, but neither wideout stood out. Cooks is expected to be ready for Week 10 against the Giants, so one of these two likely will be sitting.

  • Chris Moore WR | BAL

    Texans' Chris Moore: Finds end zone in Week 9 loss

    Moore secured four of five targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' 29-17 loss to the Eagles on Thursday night.

    Moore set the pace in receptions for the Texans on the night and shared the team lead in targets with Phillip Dorsett. The journeyman wideout also recorded his second touchdown in the last three games when he made a 13-yard scoring grab late in the first half, making it a solid fantasy night overall. Moore's role will take a hit if at least one of Brandin Cooks (wrist/personal) or Nico Collins (groin) is available for a Week 10 road matchup against the Giants.

  • Texans' Phillip Dorsett: Team-high receiving yardage total

    Dorsett secured three of five targets for 69 yards in the Texans' 29-17 loss to the Eagles on Thursday night.

    Dorsett enjoyed an expanded role with Brandin Cooks (wrist/personal) and Nico Collins (groin) unavailable, and he took advantage of the opportunity by posting a team-high receiving yardage tally. Dorsett also tied Chris Moore for the team lead in targets, and although Cooks at minimum could be back in action for a Week 10 matchup versus the Giants, Dorsett has demonstrated some utility as a complementary option by posting a 6-120-1 line over his last three games.

  • DeVonta Smith WR | PHI

    Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Quiet night in Week 9 win

    Smith brought in both his targets for 22 yards in the Eagles' 29-17 win over the Texans on Thursday night.

    Smith put together another quiet performance while Dallas Goedert and A.J. Brown set the pace for Philadelphia's pass-catching corps. The second-year speedster actually recorded all his yardage on one of his two catches, and he's now been under 50 receiving yards in three straight games. Smith's 11.1 yards per reception also represents a notable drop from the 14.3 figure he put up as a rookie, but he'll aim to exploit a favorable matchup against a Commanders defense that's given up plenty of big plays this season when he faces Washington in a Week 10 matchup in Monday night, Nov. 14.
