  • Keenan Allen WR | IND

    Chargers' Keenan Allen: Little usage in return

    Allen (hamstring) caught both his targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 37-23 loss to the Seahawks.

    Seeing his first action since suffering a hamstring injury in the Chargers' opener, Allen saw his workload limited due to his lengthy absence, and per Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times the wideout didn't play at all in the second half. With the team heading into its bye, Allen should be ready to handle his usual role after another week of rest, and he might wind up seeing massive target volume in Week 9 against the Falcons if the ankle injury Mike Williams suffered in the fourth quarter Sunday proves to be serious.

  • Tyler Boyd WR | TEN

    Bengals' Tyler Boyd: Scores, tallies 155 yards

    Boyd recorded eight receptions on nine targets for 155 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-17 win over the Falcons.

    Boyd got off to a hot start, as he broke off a 60-yard touchdown reception on Cincinnati's first offensive possession of the game. He remained heavily involved in the offense thereafter and recorded season-high marks in targets, receptions and yards. Despite the strong performance, Boyd will continue to command fewer targets than both Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, and he has surpassed five receptions in a game only twice this season.

  • Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Can't get going

    Sutton recorded three receptions on nine targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 16-9 loss to the Jets.

    Sutton saw plenty of opportunity with Brett Rypien under center, but the pair struggled to get on the same page. He was also covered closely for much of the game by Sauce Gardner -- including on a shot in the end zone that could have tied the game late in the fourth quarter. Sutton has seen at least seven targets in all but one of seven games this season and had produced relatively consistently until the last two contests, when he's combined to post only 37 yards.

  • Seahawks' Marquise Goodwin: Finds end zone twice in win

    Goodwin caught four of five targets for 67 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 37-23 win over the Chargers.

    DK Metcalf left the game in the first quarter with a knee injury and didn't return, opening the door for Goodwin to have his best game as a Seahawk -- and his first multi-TD performance since he was a 49er in 2018. The veteran wideout came into Sunday with only six catches for 79 yards on the season, but if Metcalf's injury proves to be serious, he could have a significant role in Seattle's passing game once again in Week 8 against the Giants.

  • Seahawks' Tyler Lockett: Seven catches Sunday

    Lockett caught seven of eight targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 37-23 win over the Chargers.

    While Lockett led the Seahawks in receptions and targets, his production was disappointing, especially considering DK Metcalf left the game in the first quarter with a knee injury. Lockett has hauled in at least five passes in five of the last six games, and if Metcalf's injury proves to be serious, he could deliver much better numbers in Week 8 against the Giants.

  • Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE

    Broncos' Jerry Jeudy: Racks up 96 yards

    Jeudy recorded seven receptions on 11 targets for 96 yards in Sunday's 16-9 loss to the Jets.

    While much of the Broncos' offense struggled with Brett Rypien under center, Jeudy turned in his best performance since Week 1. He accounted for each of the team's three longest offensive gains, including a 17-yard catch late in the first quarter that set up Denver's lone touchdown of the game. While the play of his quarterback is likely to remain inconsistent, Jeudy has managed to tally at least 50 receiving yards in all but one of his seven games this season.

  • Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Another huge performance

    Smith-Schuster hauled in seven of eight targets for 124 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-23 win over San Francisco.

    Smith-Schuster appears to be settling in with his new offense, posting consecutive games with at least 100 yards and a score. The 25-year-old now carries a 34-494-2 line while operating as the Chiefs' top wideout and Patrick Mahomes' second-favorite target. Smith-Schuster is looking like a fantasy steal through seven weeks, and should be held through the upcoming bye week. Kansas City will be back in action against Tennessee on Nov. 6.

  • Garrett Wilson WR | NYJ

    Jets' Garrett Wilson: Four catches in Week 7

    Wilson caught four of five targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 16-9 win over Denver.

    Elijah Moore (personal) didn't play and Corey Davis left early due to a sprained MCL, allowing cornerback Patrick Surtain and the Denver defense to focus on Wilson, especially after running back Breece Hall (knee) exited. Wilson has been quiet during the Jets' four-game winning streak, but New York could be forced into a more pass-heavy approach in Hall's absence, which may lead to more targets for Wilson in Week 8 against the Patriots.

  • Mack Hollins WR | NE

    Raiders' Mack Hollins: Grabs TD in win over Houston

    Hollins caught two of three targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Texans.

    Josh Jacobs and the Raiders' defense accounted for most of the team's points, but Hollins was on the other end of Derek Carr's only TD pass of the day just before halftime. It's the veteran wideout's second score of the year, but with only 12 targets over the last three games, he remains a risky fantasy option heading into a Week 8 clash with the Saints.

  • Hunter Renfrow WR | CAR

    Raiders' Hunter Renfrow: Modest numbers against Texans

    Renfrow caught all three of his targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Texans.

    The Raiders leaned on Josh Jacobs and the defense for four TDs in the rout, and what little passing production there was largely went to Davante Adams, with Mack Hollins also being on the other end of Derek Carr's only touchdown pass. The three targets were a season low for Renfrow, but the slot receiver should be more involved in Week 8 against the Saints.
