  • Davion Davis WR | WAS

    Davion Davis: Let go by Cleveland

    The Browns waived Davis on Monday, Ian Rapoport 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, a ban that ended Monday. The 24-year-old wideout led the Browns in receiving yards during the preseason and should garner some interest from around the league.

  • Kadarius Toney WR | CLE

    Giants' Kadarius Toney: No targets in Week 2

    Toney wasn't targeted in Thursday's 30-29 loss to Washington.

    Toney totaled two receptions for minus-2 yards in his NFL debut last week, but he didn't get any looks while playing 28 percent of the team's offensive snaps Thursday. The 2021 first-rounder missed a significant portion of camp and has had a slow start to his professional career.

  • Jaguars' Laviska Shenault: May not miss time

    Coach Urban Meyer said Monday that Shenault (shoulder) "should" be available Week 3 versus the Cardinals, John Shipley of SI.com reports.

    Shenault managed to avoid a serious shoulder injury after being forced out of Sunday's loss to the Broncos, and John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports that he's expected to practice this week. While it would be good news if Shenault can return to game action without any absences, it may be difficult to rely on him for fantasy purposes versus Arizona. Before being forced out versus Denver, the second-year wideout only had two catches for minus-3 yards, despite having drawn seven targets.

  • Mike Strachan WR | WAS

    Colts' Mike Strachan: No receptions despite larger role

    Strachan did not convert his only target into a reception in Sunday's loss to the Rams.

    Strachan played 33 snaps on offense, the third most of any Colts receiver, as he got more playing time with Parris Campbell sidelined with an abdominal injury. However, Strachan wasn't a big part of the game plan. Still, he could emerge with a larger role next week against Tennessee if Campbell remains out.

  • Ashton Dulin WR | IND

    Colts' Ashton Dulin: Scores special teams TD

    Dulin had one reception for 10 yards and recovered a botched punt attempt for a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Rams.

    Dulin started in the slot and played 25 snaps on offense as he saw an increased role with Parris Campbell sidelined with an abdominal injury. He worked as the third and fourth wider receiver with Michael Strachan playing 33 snaps on offense. Dulin's primary value is on specials teams as he showed when he recovered a punt attempt that had a bad snap near the opponent's end zone.

  • Patriots' Kendrick Bourne: Two catches in Week 2

    Bourne caught two of his three targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 25-6 win over the Jets.

    Bourne, who was out there for 31 of the team's 58 snaps on offense, was once again out-snapped by fellow WRs Jakobi Meyers (52) and Nelson Agholor (50), en route to his second straight three-target contest. Down the road, there will be games where Bourne is more involved in the team's passing game, but for now he profiles as a complementary option in an offense that spreads the ball around.

  • Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC

    Patriots' Jakobi Meyers: Catches four passes Sunday

    Meyers caught four of his six targets for 38 yards during Sunday's 25-6 win over the Jets.

    Per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, Meyers was on the field for 52 of a possible 58 snaps on offense in the contest, while Nelson Agholor logged 50 snaps, and Kendrick Bourne was out there for 31 plays. Look for Meyers' playing time to remain steady going forward, and though he operates in an offense that spreads the ball around, as the Patriots' early leader in targets (15) through two games, Meyers (who has 10 catches in that span) does possess some utility in PPR formats.

  • Nelson Agholor WR | BAL

    Patriots' Nelson Agholor: Logs 50 snaps versus Jets

    Agholor was on the field for 50 of a possible 58 snaps on offense in Sunday's 25-6 win over the Jets, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports. In the process, the wideout caught all three of his targets for 21 yards.

    Meanwhile, Jakobi Meyers logged 52 snaps and six targets, and Kendrick Bourne was out there for 31 plays and was targeted three times. With RB James White and TEs Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry also commanding regular targets, Agholor's weekly volume figures to fluctuate in an offense that tends to spread the ball around to multiple targets. That said, it's pretty clear that Agholor is destined for steady playing time this season, health permitting.

  • Saints' Ty Montgomery: Minimal offensive involvement

    Montgomery caught his only target for three yards during Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Panthers.

    Montgomery was in the starting lineup next to Chris Hogan, but he again saw less than 15 offensive snaps while Deonte Harris was the only receiver to be used in the run game. With his offensive role unlikely to grow anytime soon, Montgomery remains far off the fantasy radar.

  • Seahawks' Dee Eskridge: May be available for Week 3

    Coach Pete Carroll said Monday that Eskridge (concussion) has a chance to play against the Vikings on Sunday depending on how he handles the practice workload this week, Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic reports.

    Eskridge wasn't able to practice at all leading up to Week 2 and didn't suit up against the Titans. Carroll's comments make it sound like the rookie second-round pick will make his NFL debut against the Vikings if he doesn't suffer a setback during practice this week. If healthy, he could carve out a role as the Seahawks' No. 3 wideout behind DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.
