  • Cooper Kupp WR | SEA

    Rams' Cooper Kupp: Two touchdowns, 108 yards

    Kupp recorded 11 receptions on 14 targets for 108 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Falcons.

    Kupp got off to a relatively slow start, though he added another impressive performance to his resume. He scored touchdowns from three and 10 yards out and also posted lengthier gains of 20, 19 and 12 yards. Kupp certainly appears capable of replicating his 2021 results, as he has recorded double-digit receptions, at least 100 receiving yards and a touchdown in each of the team's first two games of the new campaign.

  • Corey Davis WR | NYJ

    Jets' Corey Davis: Spurs comeback with 66-yard TD

    Davis caught two of four targets for 83 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-30 win over the Browns.

    Davis was quiet for most of the game before getting behind the defense for a 66-yard touchdown with 1:22 to play. That touchdown pulled the Jets within six points, and New York proceeded to score the winning touchdown exactly one minute later after recovering an onside kick. With Davis, Elijah Moore and Garrett Wilson -- who topped 100 yards with two touchdowns against Cleveland -- New York has quietly compiled a talented group of wide receivers. The Jets continue to catch passes from Joe Flacco in Week 3 against the Bengals before possibly getting Zach Wilson (knee) back under center the following week.

  • Noah Brown WR | LV

    Cowboys' Noah Brown: Scores first career TD

    Brown caught all five of his targets for 91 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bengals.

    The depth receiver was Cooper Rush's most reliable option on the day, and Brown not only led Dallas in receiving yards, he caught his first career NFL touchdown in the first quarter on a nine-yard strike from Rush. Michael Gallup (knee) appears close to rejoining the lineup, however, and this performance may well end up being the high-water mark for Brown this season heading into a Week 3 clash with a Giants secondary that's yet to allow more than 66 receiving yards to a WR.

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Hauls in 75 yards in Sunday's win

    Lamb caught seven of 11 targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bengals.

    For the second straight game, Lamb led the Cowboys in targets with 11, but the third-year wideout was a lot more productive with that volume this time around. He also posted a 6-112-0 line in Week 8 last season with Cooper Rush under center, and losing Dak Prescott (thumb) for a few weeks may not result in a big hit to Lamb's fantasy value heading into a Week 3 clash with a Giants secondary that has yet to allow more than 66 receiving yards to a WR.

  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Making strong impression

    London recorded eight receptions on 12 targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Rams.

    London dominated targets among the Atlanta pass catchers, as Mariota recorded only 26 pass attempts for the game. London showed the ability to get open at various depths of target, highlighted by a four-yard touchdown catch and receptions that went for gains of 22 and 19 yards. London has topped 70 receiving yards in each of his first two games in the NFL and appears to have emerged as Marcus Mariota's top target in Atlanta.

  • Colts' Parris Campbell: Wastes expanded opportunity

    Campbell did not record a reception on either of his targets in Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Jaguars.

    With Michael Pittman (hip) and Alec Pierce (concussion) sidelined, Campbell had an excellent opportunity to command additional targets among the Colts' pass catchers. In particular, the fact that Dezmon Patmon earned six targets was disheartening for Campbell's future prospects of production. Campbell now has only three only receptions on six targets for 37 yards through two games this season, and he appears to be in danger of losing out further on his role in the offense.

  • Tee Higgins WR | CIN

    Bengals' Tee Higgins: Finds end zone in Week 2 loss

    Higgins caught six of 10 targets for 71 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Cowboys.

    The status of the third-year wideout was up in the air coming into the game due to a concussion, but he cleared the league's protocols and wound up leading the Bengals in receptions, targets and yards while catching Joe Burrow's only TD pass. Higgins likely benefited from the fact that Trevon Diggs was matched up against Ja'Marr Chase, but both Cincy receivers could be productive in Week 3 against a seemingly vulnerable Jets secondary that just surrendered a 9-101-1 line to Amari Cooper after giving up three TDs to Baltimore wide receivers in its opener.

  • Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN

    Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Five grabs in loss to Dallas

    Chase caught five of nine targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Cowboys.

    He also gained four yards on one carry. Chase was matched up against Trevon Diggs most of the day, although Joe Burrow's lack of time in the pocket was likely the bigger factor in Chase's relatively quiet performance. The second-year wideout will look to bounce back in Week 3 against a seemingly vulnerable Jets secondary that just surrendered a 9-101-1 line to Amari Cooper after giving up three TDs to Baltimore wide receivers in its opener.

  • 49ers' Brandon Aiyuk: Leading receiver against Seattle

    Aiyuk caught five of eight targets for 63 yards in Sunday's 27-7 win over the Seahawks.

    The third-year wideout led the 49ers in targets and receiving yards while tying Deebo Samuel in receptions, and the early switch under center from Trey Lance (ankle) to Jimmy Garoppolo didn't seem to have an impact on his role or production. With Samuel splitting his time between the backfield and his receiving role once again while Elijah Mitchell (knee) is on IR, Aiyuk could be San Francisco's de facto No. 1 WR in a somewhat more pass-oriented offense under Garoppolo heading into a Week 3 clash with the Broncos.

  • Deebo Samuel WR | SF

    49ers' Deebo Samuel: Productive again in hybrid role

    Samuel caught five of six targets for 44 yards and carried the ball four times for 53 yards in Sunday's 27-7 win over the Seahawks.

    Most of his production on the ground came on a 51-yard scamper on the 49ers' second possession that helped set up a field goal, and Samuel likely would have posted even bigger numbers had the game been more competitive in the second half. The team's offense has reverted to its 2021 look with Elijah Mitchell (knee) on IR and Trey Lance (ankle) now out as well, leaving Jimmy Garoppolo under center. However, given his usage last year, that only bodes well for Samuel's touch volume and production heading into a Week 3 clash with the Broncos.
