Wims hauled in a six-yard touchdown in Chicago's 36-25 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Wims wasn't targeted until the last possession of the game when the contest was completely out of hand. Fortunately, he turned his only opportunity into a touchdown. With just six receptions on the season, he would need injuries to the Bears' wide receiver group in order to see more consistent involvement in the offense.

Thomas caught nine of 11 targets for 131 yards during Sunday's 36-25 win over the Bears.

Despite a tough road matchup against a strong Chicago defense, Thomas caught 82 percent of his targets while averaging a healthy 14.6 yards per catch. His growing rapport with Teddy Bridgewater was perhaps best displayed on a beautiful 34-yard connection that could have gone for a longer touchdown if he wasn't dubiously ruled down by contact. Perhaps the only complaint from his fantasy owners would be the lack of a trip to the end zone for a second consecutive week, but he could easily put that to rest in next Sunday's inviting matchup against the Cardinals.

Robinson caught 10 passes for 87 yards and a touchdown in Chicago's 36-25 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Robinson was the only Bears player to be effective throughout the entire contest. During the first half, the team struggled to move the football with the exception of Robinson, who was able to consistently beat tight coverage. He then padded his yardage totals while scoring a touchdown late in the contest when the game was out of hand. He's posted at least 77 yards in each of his last three games while scoring three times during that span, and he's settled in as a rock-solid weekly fantasy starter.

Boykin caught both his targets for 55 yards during Sunday's 30-16 win over the Seahawks.

Boykin turned in his team's longest play of the day, hauling in a 50-yard pass from Lamar Jackson to set up a field goal on the opening drive. He received just one target after that point but had already done enough to lead the team in receiving yardage on a day when they completed just nine passes. Boykin's role in the offense doesn't seem to change much whether Marquise Brown is in the lineup, so he should remain a peripheral option next Sunday night against the Patriots.

Cobb (back) is listed as active Sunday against the Eagles, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Cobb logged his first absence as a member of the Cowboys in Week 6, the result of a back injury suffered in the preceding Thursday's practice. He took a step in the right direction by returning to drills in a limited capacity Friday, which was enough to get clearance to play. Cobb will join Amari Cooper (quadriceps/ankle) and Michael Gallup on the field whenever the offense goes with three-wide sets.

Cooper (quadriceps/ankle) is active for Sunday's game versus the Eagles, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.

Cooper played three offensive snaps before an early exit in last Sunday's defeat to the Jets due to what was termed a thigh bruise. His ensuing practice reps were restricted by ankle and quadriceps injuries, resulting in just one limited showing Friday. After that session, there was a belief that Cooper would suit up this weekend, which has come to fruition. Cooper and Michael Gallup will serve as the Cowboys' top two wide receivers ahead of Randall Cobb, who also is available after sitting out Week 6 with a back issue.

Doss caught three of five targets for 54 yards during Sunday's 42-24 loss to the Packers.

After seeing the field on the majority of offensive snaps in Week 5's matchup against the Bears, Doss was Oakland's leading wide receiver during Sunday's contest against Green Bay. All things considered, he did well -- contributing with a big 31-yard gain in the first quarter. He faded down the stretch, however, with just one target in the final 42 minutes of Sunday's game. Where he goes from here is unclear with Tyrell Williams (foot) out of commission and Zay Jones working his way into action, but it'd probably be wise to look before you leap with Doss.

Conley secured three catches for 83 yards on eight targets and caught a two-point conversion in Sunday's 27-17 win over Cincinnati.

Conley did most of his damage on a 47-yard catch that got the offense down to Cincinnati's 8-yard line on the first play of the fourth quarter, and he capped that drive by catching a two-point try to give his team a seven-point lead. While Conley has slowed down dramatically after totaling 170 receiving yards and a touchdown in the season's first two games, he's still capable of the occasional outburst thanks to his downfield ability.

Valdes-Scantling caught two of three targets for 133 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 42-24 win over Oakland.

Valdes-Scantling managed to draw just three targets even with Davante Adams (toe) out and Geronimo Allison (chest) injured. It's hard to imagine how he could have done much more with his opportunities, however. His first haul was a 59-yard shot downfield to open the second half and set up an Aaron Rodgers touchdown run. He did it all himself midway through the fourth quarter, taking a quick out-cut the distance for a 74-yard score. The statuesque sophomore came into Sunday with an impressive 14.9 yards per reception, and that's now up to 19.8 yards per catch. Next up is a Chiefs defense that has been solid keeping opponents in front of them, ranking 11th-best in the league with 10.8 yards per catch allowed.

Chark caught three of four targets for 53 yards and added a 20-yard rush in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Bengals.

Chark has established a decent floor for himself, with no fewer than 43 receiving yards in every game this season. He also has five touchdowns, though the second-year wideout has now gone two straight games without one for the first time all season. Chark will look to end that short drought when his Jaguars host the Jets in Week 8.
