Andy Isabella WR | SF
Cardinals' Andy Isabella: Records 67 yards in win
Isabella caught both targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 30-15 win over Washington.
After finishing Week 1 without a target, Isabella bounced back and caught passes of 54 and 13 yards against the Football Team. However, he played just 18 percent of the offensive snaps as the clear No. 4 receiver behind DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk and Larry Fitzgerald. Isabella's speed (4.31 40-yard dash) makes him a big play waiting to happen, though, so he should be on fantasy radars in case a starter goes down.

Hunter Renfrow WR | CAR
Raiders' Hunter Renfrow: Big catches on MNF
Renfrow caught all three of his targets for 37 receiving yards during Monday's 34-24 win against the Saints.
Renfrow recorded two receptions that spanned 15-plus yards, with one coming on the Raiders' second touchdown drive of the game in the late-second quarter, and the other on Las Vegas' TD drive in the fourth quarter. Tight end Darren Waller completely dominated the pass-catching workload in attracting 16 targets on the night, while not another Raider finished above three. Even with Derek Carr having thrown to a 73.5 percent completion rate and a 4:0 TD:INT, Renfrow has so far been a low-volume option in the passing game. If a breakout performance were to come for Renfrow in Week 3 against New England, it may come via red-zone usage, as he finished second on the team in red-zone looks last year with 10.

Deonte Harty WR | BAL
Saints' Deonte Harris: Hauls in three passes
Harris brought in three of five targets for 23 yards and added an 11-yard carry in the Saints' 34-24 loss to the Raiders on Monday.
With Michael Thomas out of action, Harris saw an increase in targets and actually finished ahead of Emmanuel Sanders in looks from Drew Brees. It's clear that Alvin Kamara will be Brees' first read on the majority of passing plays, but Harris has some appeal in deeper leagues for as long as Thomas is out.

Tim Patrick WR | NYJ
Broncos' Tim Patrick: Role secure in Denver
Patrick should start opposite Jerry Jeudy following news that Courland Sutton (torn ACL) will miss the rest of the season, Ben Swanson of the Broncos' official site reports.
Patrick has logged at least 65 percent of offensive snaps in each of the first two games, and with Sutton done for the season, that role should be locked down for the foreseeable future. However, he hasn't been very productive through two weeks with just six catches for 53 yards on 10 targets, and his five targets in Week 2 were surpassed by rookies Jerry Jeudy (eight) and KJ Hamler (seven). There's more ambiguity now, too, as QB Drew Lock (shoulder) will sit out at least two weeks, and Jeff Driskel will take over under center. With Patrick potentially being the fourth receiving option for Driskel behind Jeudy, Hamler and TE Noah Fant, his fantasy outlook is bleak.

Ty Montgomery WR | NE
Saints' Ty Montgomery: Catches two passes in loss
Montgomery caught two of three targets for 25 yards in the Saints' 34-24 loss to the Raiders on Monday.
Montgomery was used sparingly in this one, as he accounted for just his second and third touches of the season. Barring injuries, the third-stringer will likely struggle to take the field this season as he plays behind Alvin Kamara and Latavius Murray.

Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE
Broncos' Jerry Jeudy: Top Broncos wideout sans Sutton
Jeudy is the Broncos' de facto No. 1 WR following news that Courtland Sutton (torn ACL) is out for the season, Ben Swanson of the team's official site reports.
Jeudy has led the Broncos with 15 targets through two weeks, and he's turned that into eight catches for 118 yards but no touchdowns. He's already comfortable playing without Sutton, who didn't play in Week 1 and only played 31 snaps this past Sunday, but fantasy managers should be encouraged since Jeudy has a solid chance to be the most targeted wide receiver for the team moving forward. However, the QB situation is uncertain, as Drew Lock (shoulder) could miss 3-to-6 weeks, meaning Jeff Driskel will be under center in the meantime. Driskel played three games for the Lions last season and completed just 59 percent of his passes for 685 yards, four TDs and four INTs through three games.

Kendrick Bourne WR | ARI
49ers' Kendrick Bourne: Leads team in receiving
Bourne had four catches (five targets) for 67 yards in Sunday's 31-13 win over the Jets.
With Deebo Samuel (foot) still on IR, Bourne stuck as the club's top producer on the outside even with the debut of rookie Brandon Aiyuk. The 49ers were hurt by a slew of lower-body injuries sustained during Week 2, so this offense may look completely different while down two key running backs and, most likely, its starting quarterback. This could lead to more passing volume for Bourne and San Francisco's other top receiving options even with backup Nick Mullens under center, as Mullens proved to be a capable signal caller back in 2018.

Davante Adams WR | LAR
Packers' Davante Adams: Status for Week 3 still TBD
The hamstring strain Adams suffered in the Packers' Week 2 win over the Lions is considered minor, but his status for Sunday's game at New Orleans hasn't been determined, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
After a huge Week 1 outing in Minnesota, Adams reeled in three targets for 36 yards against Detroit before exiting in the second half. Green Bay had already built a sizable lead at the time Adams suffered the injury, so the coaching staff wasn't eager to rush him back to the field while he was less than 100 percent healthy. That said, Adams will still need to prove the strained hamstring isn't too much of a deterrent in practice this week to ensure his availability for the primetime matchup in New Orleans. With Sunday's game beginning at 8:20 p.m. ET, Adams' fantasy managers would ideally receive some resolution on his status before the first wave of Week 3 games kick off.

Phillip Dorsett WR | LV
Seahawks' Phillip Dorsett: Out until Week 7
The Seahawks placed Dorsett (foot) on injured reserve Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Seattle's decision to shut down Dorsett doesn't come as a major surprise after head coach Pete Carroll ruled the receiver out six days in advance of the team's Week 3 matchup with Dallas. Dorsett has been battling foot soreness since late in training camp and hasn't advanced beyond limited participation in practice yet this season, so the Seahawks will give him some more time off to properly heal. He'll be sidelined for at least three more games by virtue of landing on IR, with his next chance to make his 2020 debut coming Oct. 25 in Arizona following the Seahawks' Week 6 bye.

DJ Chark WR | ATL
Jaguars' DJ Chark: Reps capped in practice
Chark (chest) was a limited participant in practice Tuesday, John Shipley of SI.com reports.
Though Chark's showed up as a limited participant on the practice report for the second day in a row, the Jaguars haven't yet indicated that he's at any serious risk of missing Thursday's game against the Dolphins. Chark has been highly efficient as a receiver through Jacksonville's first two contests, corralling all seven of his targets for 109 yards and a touchdown.
