Lamb caught five of six targets for 65 yards and gained one rushing yard on one carry in Sunday's 38-31 loss to the Seahawks.

In a vacuum it looks like a solid performance, but Lamb actually finished fourth on the Cowboys in receiving yards on a day when Dak Prescott aired it out 57 times. The rookie wideout has looked good to begin his career, catching 16 of 21 targets for 230 yards and a TD through three games, and he'll try to add to those numbers Week 4 against a Browns defense that's already given up five touchdowns to opposing WRs.

Zuber was on the field for six of a possible 69 snaps on offense in Sunday's 36-20 win over the Raiders, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Zuber, who turned a sweep play into a 13-yard rush in his NFL debut, remains a depth option at wideout for the Patriots, whether he's on the team's practice squad or active roster.

Byrd was on the field for 66 of a possible 69 snaps on offense in Sunday's 36-20 win over the Raiders, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Byrd, who out-snapped both Julian Edelman (56) and N'Keal Harry (46) in the game, hauled in all three of his targets for 27 yards as the Patriots went with a run-heavy game plan Week 3. Unless the team makes a move to add wideout depth, Byrd figures to continue to see regular snaps, but he profiles as a hit-or-miss fantasy option in an offense that tends to change its approach from week to week.

Godwin (hamstring) is scheduled to receive an MRI on Monday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

Godwin was quickly ruled out of Sunday's win over the Broncos upon suffering his hamstring injury, and he'll now receive an MRI to officially diagnose the severity of the issue. In the event that Godwin is forced to miss any time and rehab on the sideline, Scotty Miller will take over in the slot as the No. 2 wide receiver behind Mike Evans. Justin Watson (shoulder) would be a candidate to join three-receiver sets.

Coach Doug Pederson said Monday that Arcega-Whiteside suffered a lower body injury during pregame warmups Sunday, Daniel Gallen of The Harrisburg Patriot-News reports.

Arcega-Whiteside managed to suit up for Sunday's tie against the Bengals despite his pregame injury, but he was limited to just 20 percent of offensive snaps and held without a target. Pederson labeled the second-year wideout "day-to-day," a hint that he should have a fair shot at suiting up Week 4 in San Francisco. With Jalen Reagor (thumb), DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and Alshon Jeffery (foot) all nursing injuries, Arcega-Whiteside could see a larger role against the 49ers if he's able to get healthy.

Samuel caught all four of his targets for 45 yards and rushed four times for seven yards in Sunday's 21-16 win over the Chargers.

Samuel went for a 24-yard gain early in the game, marking his longest play of this season. That contribution helped Samuel post his highest yardage total through three weeks, as he again was involved both in the air and on the ground. With Christian McCaffrey (ankle) sidelined, Samuel garnered four carries for the second game in a row, and although he struggled to get anything going from those touches, his eight overall trailed only replacement tailback Mike Davis' 21 among Carolina's skill-position players. As the Panthers aim to compensate for McCaffrey's absence, Samuel could continue to garner more usage as a gadget weapon on offense in Week 4 versus the Cardinals.

Chark (chest/back) is undergoing further testing Monday morning, John Reid of The Florida Times-Union reports.

Coach Doug Marrone sounded optimistic about his No. 1 receiver Friday, but it's at least a little concerning that Chark needs more tests to evaluate his injuries. He was held out of Thursday's 31-13 loss to the Dolphins, and fantasy managers should consider him questionable to return for Week 4 at Cincinnati.

Jefferson only played eight offensive snaps and failed to catch his only target during Sunday's 35-32 loss to Buffalo.

This was a bit of a surprising disappearing act from Jefferson. Los Angeles turned to their three experienced wide receivers Sunday, and the rookie wasn't a factor. Third-year wideout Josh Reynolds played 62 snaps and was the clear-cut No. 3 option through the air against Buffalo with four receptions for 60 yards. As usual, Cooper Kupp and Robert Woods were busy. They combined for 14 receptions, 181 yards and two touchdowns. Jefferson remains an intriguing long-term prospect, but his immediate fantasy value is limited because of his position on the Los Angeles depth chart.

Reynolds caught four of his five targets for 60 yards during Sunday's 35-32 loss to Buffalo.

This was Reynolds' best showing of the year, and he also played a season-high 62 offensive snaps. Rookie receiver Van Jefferson appeared on the verge of leapfrogging Reynolds on the depth chart, but Sunday's snap share favored the third-year wideout by a large margin as Jefferson only played eight offensive snaps. Still, Reynolds is a risky start in the majority of fantasy settings, and Jefferson is also probably the better long-term option for the Rams.

Jones caught three passes on as many targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 36-20 loss to the Patriots.

Jones benefited from the absence of rookie Henry Ruggs (knee/hamstring) on Sunday, but the former could see even more work in Week 4 against the Bills if fellow receiver Bryan Edwards were to miss time with the ankle injury he suffered in New England. Through the Raiders' first three contests of the season, Jones has managed to catch all four of his targets for 47 yards and a score.
