  • Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Held without a catch

    Wilson was not targeted during the Dolphins' 24-16 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

    Wilson was silent while Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle drew 15 and 10 targets, respectively, in a game that saw Teddy Bridgewater pass for over 300 yards after replacing Skylar Thompson (thumb) in the second quarter. Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) could return to the starting lineup in Week 7 versus Pittsburgh, but even if Miami's offense gets its rhythm back, Wilson can safely be left out of fantasy lineups until he shows some flashes of the big-game upside he demonstrated in Dallas last season.

  • Ty Fryfogle WR | KC

    Ty Fryfogle: Working out with Packers

    Fryfogle (hamstring) will work out with the Packers on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Fryfogle began training camp with the Cowboys but was waived/injured in late August due to a hamstring issue. However, his workout with the Packers signals that he's moved past his injury and is in the mix to provide depth at wide receiver after Randall Cobb sustained an ankle injury Sunday against the Jets.

  • Noah Brown WR | LV

    Cowboys' Noah Brown: Only one catch Sunday

    Brown caught one of three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles.

    The 26-year-old wideout very nearly had a spectacular touchdown catch in the back corner of the end zone just before halftime, but upon review it was ruled he didn't get a second foot or other body part down in bounds after securing the ball. Brown has seen his target volume dwindle the last couple games with Michael Gallup back in action, but the entire Cowboys passing game could get a boost Week 7 if Dak Prescott (thumb) is able to return to action.

  • Falcons' Olamide Zaccheaus: Leads team in receiving

    Zaccheaus hauled in all four of his targets for 58 yards during Sunday's 28-14 win versus the 49ers.

    Zaccheaus tied Drake London in targets, but the former finished with team highs in receptions and receiving yards. While London and Kyle Pitts are the most talented pass catchers in Atlanta, Zaccheaus has quietly carved out a role as Marcus Mariota's most consistent receiver. The fourth-year wideout has caught multiple passes and recorded at least 20 receiving yards in each game this season, totaling 16 receptions for 271 yards and two scores.

  • Amari Rodgers WR | IND

    Packers' Amari Rodgers: Records first 2022 reception

    Rodgers was caught his only target for 14 yards in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Jets.

    Rodgers played only four snaps on offense over the Packers' first five games, but he took the field for 22 offensive snaps in Week 6, seeing a bump in usage after Randall Cobb (ankle) left the game. Rodgers did little, but he did record his first reception of the season. Three Packers wideouts head into Week 7 with injury concerns, so Rodgers could be deployed beyond his usual special teams role once again.

  • Romeo Doubs WR | NE

    Packers' Romeo Doubs: Targeted nine times

    Doubs was targeted nine times and caught four passes for 21 yards in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Jets.

    The nine passes thrown in Doubs' direction were a career high, but none of his receptions picked up more than eight yards. The rookie has been quiet the past two weeks, but he should continue seeing plenty of opportunities, as he played all but three snaps in Sunday's contest. Among the Packers' top five wideouts, Doubs is one of only two who heads into Week 7 without an injury issue.

  • Michael Gallup WR | WAS

    Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Out of sync with QB

    Gallup caught just two of seven targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 26-17 loss to the Eagles.

    Cooper Rush was not up to the task of facing Philadelphia's dominant defensive unit, as he failed to complete half of his passes and Gallup was the receiver who suffered the worst (28.6 catch rate). There are two positive takeaways to be had from the wideout's rough game. First, Gallup's seven targets finished behind only CeeDee Lamb's 10. The other good news is that Dak Prescott (thumb) could return as soon as next Sunday's matchup against the Lions, which could boost all of Dallas' receiving options heading into a soft matchup. Gallup will serve as the No. 2 receiver for whoever lines up under center in Week 7.

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Gains 77 yards on seven touches

    Lamb (hip) had five receptions on 10 targets for 68 yards while adding nine yards on two rush attempts in Sunday's 26-17 loss to the Eagles.

    Lamb's fantasy managers suffered a late-week scare when the star wideout was added to the injury report due to his hip at Friday's practice. The 23-year-old was expected to play based on early reports Sunday, and he followed through and provided solid fantasy production. Lamb added his second and third rushing attempts of the season, but his efficiency (5.0 YPC) is lacking compared to his brief usage as a rusher over his first two seasons (8.3 YPC). Cowboys star quarterback Dak Prescott (thumb) could return as soon as next Sunday's tilt against Detroit, but Lamb has proven that he can still be relied upon even if backup Cooper Rush is forced to make another start.

  • DeVonta Smith WR | PHI

    Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Strong results from five targets

    Smith hauled in all five of his targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-17 win over the Cowboys.

    Smith finished with a nearly identical line to fellow starter A.J. Brown, as both receivers were able to eat despite Jalen Hurts finishing with a new season low of 155 passing yards. The talented sophomore has been on a roll since his zero-point dud back in Week 1, accruing a receiving line of 33/397/2 for fantasy managers over his last five games. Smith will continue to be a must-start wideout when Philadelphia returns from its bye week to take on the Steelers on Oct. 30.

  • Devin Duvernay WR | ARI

    Ravens' Devin Duvernay: Does little with five targets

    Duvernay recorded one catch on five targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Giants.

    Duvernay tied for the lead in targets among Baltimore's wide receivers in the absence of Rashod Bateman (foot). However, he seemingly was not on the same page as Lamar Jackson, which is surprising given that he had converted nine of his last 12 targets into receptions entering Sunday's game. Assuming Bateman remains out, Duvernay will have a legitimate chance to contribute to the offense in Week 7 against the Browns, though his involvement continues to pale in comparison to that of Mark Andrews.
