  • Kalif Raymond WR | CHI

    Lions' Kalif Raymond: Targeted 10 times in loss

    Raymond (thigh) caught six of 10 targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Ravens.

    Raymond stepped up as the top performer in the Lions' underwhelming wide receiver group with Tyrell Williams (concussion) on IR, leading the team in both targets and receiving yards. With tight end T.J. Hockenson and running back D'Andre Swift both above him in the passing game pecking order, Raymond will be no better than a flex consideration against the tough Bears defense Week 4.

  • Cole Beasley WR | NYG

    Bills' Cole Beasley: Racks up catches in win

    Beasley secured 11 of 13 targets for 98 yards in the Bills' 43-21 win over Washington on Sunday.

    It was a prototypical Beasley stat line, with the veteran possession receiver not notching a catch longer than 22 yards and easily establishing a new season high in receptions along the way. Beasley also tied his high-water mark in targets, and he once more could wreak havoc against the Texans in a favorable Week 4 matchup.

  • Stefon Diggs WR | WAS

    Bills' Stefon Diggs: Solid line in blowout win

    Diggs secured six of 10 targets for 62 yards in the Bills' 43-21 win over Washington on Sunday.

    Diggs turned in a relatively vanilla stat line by his lofty standards, but his numbers still were useful to fantasy managers rostering him in PPR formats in particular. The star receiver thus far has been partly victimized by the Bills' passing attack not taking center stage this season until Sunday, but it still was disappointing to see him fail to score on a day Josh Allen threw four touchdowns. Diggs will look to boost his overall numbers back up at the expense of the vulnerable Texans in Week 4.

  • Giants' Collin Johnson: Good impact Sunday

    Johnson caught five of seven targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 17-14 loss to the Falcons.

    Johnson saw his involvement increase after starting wideouts Darius Slayton and Sterling Shepard both suffered hamstring injuries. Their absences enabled Johnson to tie for New York's team lead in targets and trail only Saquon Barkley in receptions. Should Slayton and Shepard be sidelined going forward, Johnson, a second-year pro, could see his value benefit from significant playing time opposite fellow big-bodied wideout Kenny Golladay, with rookie first-round playmaker Kadarius Toney a prime candidate to help fill any potential voids as well.

  • Elijah Moore WR | PHI

    Jets' Elijah Moore: Examined for head injury

    Moore is under evaluation for a head injury in the later stages of Sunday's game in Denver.

    It's unclear when exactly Moore may have been banged up, but if he's unable to return he'll come out of Week 3 with three catches (on six targets) for 22 yards and potentially a concussion. With both Jamison Crowder (groin) and Denzel Mims (coach's decision) sidelined Sunday, the Jets currently have four healthy wide receivers (Corey Davis, Keelan Cole, Braxton Berrios and Jeff Smith) on the active roster.

  • Titans' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Steps up Sunday

    Westbrook-Ikhine caught all four of his targets for 53 yards and a touchdown but lost a fumble in Sunday's 25-16 win over the Colts.

    Westbrook-Ikhine saw his role expand after star wideout A.J. Brown exited early with a hamstring injury. The second-year pro stepped up with an 18-yard touchdown -- the first of his career -- in the second quarter, but then Westbrook-Ikhine coughed the ball up following a red-zone-entering grab in the third. Should Brown be sidelined going forward, Westbrook-Ikhine would figure to benefit from more snaps, as was the case with his team-leading production as a receiver Sunday, but he'll need to avoid mistakes like fumbling in order to stay on the field.

  • Deonte Harty WR | BAL

    Saints' Deonte Harris: Three targets in win

    Harris caught all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 28-13 win over the Patriots.

    The three receptions and 31 yards both represented season highs for the Saints' starting wideout, which shows how infrequent this offense chooses to throw the football. Harris hasn't been able to produce much from a fantasy perspective outside of a big-play touchdown back in Week 1, so it's tough to trust him on a weekly basis. We will see if the Saints decide to open up their offense in a favorable matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

  • Saints' Marquez Callaway: Leads team in receiving

    Callaway had four receptions (five targets) for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-13 win over the Patriots.

    Callaway turned in his best performance of the season as the Saints move to 2-1. He continues to serve as the club's top option at wide receiver, but that hadn't resulted in much fantasy production due to the conservative nature of New Orleans' offensive game plan. Callaway will look to build on this performance in a soft matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

  • Mecole Hardman WR | BUF

    Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Finds end zone in loss

    Hardman secured three of four targets for 33 yards and a touchdown, rushed once for two yards and returned two punts for seven yards in the Chiefs' 30-24 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.

    Hardman salvaged an otherwise lackluster fantasy day with his eight-yard scoring grab in the fourth quarter. The third-year speedster thus far has been relatively underwhelming in his No. 2 receiver role, generating an 11-107 line and Sunday's touchdown through three contests. Hardman will look to build up his numbers in a Week 4 road matchup against the Eagles.

  • Jaguars' Laviska Shenault: Totals 48 yards in loss

    Shenault secured all four of his targets for 48 yards during Sunday's 31-19 loss to Arizona.

    Shenault ranked second on the team in targets through the first two games of the season, but he finished fifth in targets versus the Cardinals. The 22-year-old had a season-high 20-yard reception but continues to work mostly underneath in Jacksonville's passing game. Rookie QB Trevor Lawrence continues to struggle with turnovers, and Shenault's not exactly a viable fantasy option at this point as Marvin Jones and DJ Chark remain the more productive wideouts.
