Renfrow caught five of seven targets for 57 yards Sunday in the Raiders' 26-17 win over the Steelers. He also returned two punts for 26 yards.

Renfrow has yet to find the end zone this season, but he's recorded 11 receptions for 127 yards on 16 targets through two weeks despite logging less than 30 offensive snaps in Pittsburgh on Sunday. The slot receiver is pacing the Raiders' WR corps in targets, and quarterback Derek Carr could be forced to rely on Renfrow even more often against the Dolphins in Week 3 as cornerbacks Xavien Howard and Byron Jones attempt to blanket Henry Ruggs and Bryan Edwards on the outside.

Edwards caught three passes on as many targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 26-17 win over the Steelers.

Edwards, who fell less than a yard shy of scoring in overtime during the Raiders' season opener, also had a touchdown grab negated by a holding penalty in Pittsburgh. The second-year wide receiver led his position group in snaps (74 percent), but he ultimately finished just fifth on the team in receiving with four other pass catchers recording five receptions apiece, as quarterback Derek Carr took advantage of an injury-riddled Steelers defense. A tougher test likely awaits in Week 3 as Miami's secondary features cornerbacks Xavien Howard and Byron Jones.

Ward was not targeted in Sunday's loss to the 49ers.

On the bright side, Ward played 21 snaps on offense, up five from last week. It looks like it will take an injury to one of the Eagles' starting three receivers for him to become relevant in the offense again.

Patrick secured three of four targets for 37 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 23-13 win over the Jaguars.

With fellow wideout Jerry Jeudy landing on injured reserve due to a high ankle sprain, Patrick stepped in and played 74 percent of Denver's offensive snaps in Week 2. The receiver's TD was his second of the season, and it's clear that Teddy Bridgewater is building strong chemistry with Patrick. Going forward, he should be an important part of the Broncos' passing attack, making him an intriguing option in fantasy lineups while Jeudy misses time. Patrick has a chance to build on this early-season momentum when the Broncos host the struggling Jets in Week 3.

Valdes-Scantling was targeted four times but did not make a catch in Monday night's 35-17 win over the Lions.

Valdes-Scantling had a frustrating outing, but not really through any fault of his own. His first target was broken up along the sideline, then quarterback Aaron Rodgers missed him with a would-be one-yard touchdown later on. Valdes-Scantling subsequently was overthrown by Rodgers on two attempted deep shots in the second half when he had a step on his man. He and Rodgers will hope to get their timing down ahead of Week 3's matchup versus the 49ers.

Cephus caught four of seven targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 35-17 loss to the Packers.

Cephus started the evening with an impressive 46-yard gain on third down to extend Detroit's opening drive, which he actually capped with a wide-open, five-yard touchdown thanks to a defensive miscommunication later on. Although he only had a couple grabs afterward, Cephus trailed only tight end T.J. Hockenson in each major receiving category for the Lions, scoring in consecutive games to begin the season to boot. Whether teammate Tyrell Williams (concussion) returns for Week 3's matchup versus the Ravens or not, Cephus is building good chemistry with new quarterback Jared Goff through their first couple games together.

Adams caught eight of nine targets for 121 yards in Monday night's 35-17 win over the Lions.

Adams was limited to underneath work in the first half but got his night going with a 50-yard bomb from Aaron Rodgers to begin the third quarter. Rodgers' trusty top target then saved his quarterback by breaking up a would-be interception on their next drive -- the only unsuccessful target in his direction -- before hauling in a 22-yard pass shortly after. As arguably the league's best wideout, Adams bounced back from a relatively quiet Week 1 with a more familiar performance Monday. He'll now hope to find the end zone for the first time this season when facing the 49ers in Week 3.

Beasley caught all four of his targets for 36 yards during Sunday's win over the Dolphins.

The pass-heavy Bills took control of the game early and were content to run the ball more than usual. Even with the addition of Emmanuel Sanders, Beasley still seems like the No. 2 option in the passing game, but there are a lot of mouths to feed even in this high-powered offense. Plus, running back Devin Singletary and tight end Dawson Knox simply look like better players this season. Beasley should maintain his value as a deep WR option, but it's hard to see much upside beyond that. Last season's 967 receiving yards may be tough to match.

Treadwell reverted back to the Jaguars' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction report.

Treadwell did not see any targets on his nine offensive snaps. He will now work with the practice squad until he receives another chance to move onto the 53-man roster.

Raymond (thigh) is listed as active Monday in Green Bay.

Raymond didn't show up on the Lions' injury report until Saturday, when he was listed as a limited participant due to a thigh injury. During pregame warmups he was seen testing out his left leg, on which he had a compression sleeve, per Justin Rogers of The Detroit News. Raymond will give it a go in Week 2 after turning a 75-percent share of the offensive snaps into three catches (on four targets) for 50 yards, plus one carry for nine yards, in the team's season opener versus the 49ers.
