  • Van Jefferson WR | WAS

    Rams' Van Jefferson: Quiet in win

    Jefferson secured one of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Colts.

    After a solid fantasy performance in Week 1, Jefferson came crashing back down to earth. The 25-year-old wide receiver finished fourth in targets on the Rams for the second week in a row, but his offensive snap percentage jumped from 69 percent in Week 1 to 92 percent in Week 2. In a high-powered offense, Jefferson will have some strong performances, but predicting when those breakout performances may happen is tough. However, his chances of one could be higher than expected in Week 3 against a Buccaneers defense missing key personnel in the secondary.

  • Equanimeous St. Brown: Back to practice squad

    St. Brown has reverted to the Packers' practice squad, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    St. Brown logged six offensive snaps and caught his lone target for no gain in Monday's 35-17 win over the Lions. The 24-year-old wideout will continue to work on the Packers' scout team for the time being.

  • Deon Cain WR | BUF

    Deon Cain: Tries out in Philly

    Cain (head) worked out with the Eagles on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.

    Cain landed on Baltimore's injured reserve with a head injury after training camp, but he's back to full health and looking for the next opportunity. Through 15 career games since the start of the 2019 campaign, he has put up nine receptions for 144 yards.

  • Byron Pringle WR | WAS

    Chiefs' Byron Pringle: Scores first TD of season

    Pringle notched a pair of catches for 63 yards and a touchdown Sunday against the Ravens.

    Pringle made the most of his 11 offensive snaps Sunday, drawing two targets on the day and turning them into a productive showing overall. However, his 22 percent snap share indicates his position on the depth chart hasn't changed, so it's unlikely he will see this sort of output on a weekly basis barring an upswing in playing time.

  • Chiefs' Demarcus Robinson: Reaches pay dirt versus Ravens

    Robinson compiled three catches for 46 yards and a touchdown on four targets Sunday versus the Ravens.

    That is the good news for Robinson. On the downside, Robinson seemed to fall down the pecking order, logging fewer snaps than Mecole Hardman and many fewer targets (four to Harman's eight). Hardman is the far superior fantasy threat if he's getting No. 2 receiver snaps, so if Robinson's snap count dwindles more or remains stagnant in future weeks, it's unreasonable to anticipate similar results.

  • Davion Davis WR | WAS

    Davion Davis: Joins Cleveland's practice squad

    The Browns signed Davis to their practice squad after he cleared waivers Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Davis was suspended for the first two games of the regular season for violating the NFL's Policy and Program on Substances of Abuse. The 24-year-old wideout led the Browns with 154 receiving yards during the preseason. He is a possible candidate for elevation while the Browns deal with injuries to Odell Beckham (knee) and Jarvis Landry (knee).

  • Nico Collins WR | HOU

    Texans' Nico Collins: Heads to IR

    Collins (shoulder) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

    The roster move ensures that Collins won't be available to play for the Texans until at least their Week 6 matchup with the Colts on Oct. 17. Though the details regarding Collins' shoulder injury remain vague, prior reports suggested that he faced a 3-4 week recovery timeline. Houston added tight end Antony Auclair from the practice squad to take Collins' spot on the 53-man roster.

  • Amari Rodgers WR | IND

    Packers' Amari Rodgers: No offensive snaps Week 2

    Rodgers did not play a snap on offense in Monday's 35-17 victory over the Lions. He did return a punt for two yards.

    Rodgers played a few snaps and caught a pass in the Packers' Week 1 loss, but he only handled the punt-return duties in Week 2. With at least four veteran receivers ahead of him on the depth chart, Rodgers could remain limited to special teams for the time being.

  • Cowboys' Cedrick Wilson: Two catches Sunday

    Wilson caught both his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's win over the Chargers.

    He also gained five yards on his only carry. Wilson filled in as the No. 3 receiver for the Cowboys in the absence of Michael Gallup (calf) but didn't see much volume on a day when the team focused on getting its ground attack going. There could be more productive days ahead for Wilson, however, especially if Amari Cooper (ribs) is sidelined or limited Week 3 against the Eagles.

  • Devin Duvernay WR | ARI

    Ravens' Devin Duvernay: Sees no targets Sunday

    Duvernay recovered a fumble for a touchdown Sunday but did not draw a target on 34 snaps against the Chiefs.

    Quarterback Lamar Jackson honed in on Marquise Brown, Mark Andrews and Sammy Watkins in Week 2 and didn't look Duvernay's way. Duvernay has two targets through two games and doesn't appear to be a major factor in the Baltimore target rotation. Baltimore heads to Detroit in Week 3.
