Mims caught two of three targets for 30 yards and rushed once for minus-two yards in Sunday's 13-11 win over the Jets.

Mims played 21 of the Broncos' 60 offensive snaps Sunday, behind fellow wide receivers Courtland Sutton (48), Pat Bryant (35) and Troy Franklin (35). The third-year wideout's 35 percent snap share was his lowest mark of the season. Mims has flashed his play-making ability at times this season, but his inconsistent usage in Denver's offense makes him extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. The 23-year-old will have his next chance to take a step forward in a Week 7 matchup against the Giants, yet he'll continue to face stiff competition for targets in a crowded receiving corps.

Duvernay returned five kickoffs for 120 yards in Monday's 25-24 win over the Commanders.

Though Duvernay has been active for every game this season, his role has been contained exclusively to special teams. He has yet to log a snap on offense through five contests and is averaging 25.0 yards per kickoff return and 11.4 yards per punt return.

Lane caught one of two targets for 37 yards and rushed one time for seven yards in the Commanders' loss to the Bears on Monday night.

With Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Noah Brown (groin/knee) continuing to miss time, Lane saw an elevated role on offense, playing 42 percent of the snaps. He also returned one punt for nine yards on special teams. On the season, the fourth-round rookie has seven grabs for 82 scoreless yards on 15 targets, and 13 punt returns for 186 yards and one touchdown.

Tremayne failed to draw a target while playing 23 of the Panthers' 67 snaps on offense in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Cowboys.

Tremayne was held without a reception for the first time since Week 1, ending a four-game stretch in which he accrued a 9-108-0 receiving line on 12 targets. Though he still finished third among Carolina wideouts in snap share (34 percent), Tremayne is likely to see his playing time take a hit if Jalen Coker (quadriceps) is reinstated from injured reserve ahead of the Panthers' next game Sunday at the Jets.

Moore failed to catch either of his two targets in Monday night's loss to the Falcons.

With Curtis Samuel (neck) inactive and Joshua Palmer (ankle) going down in the first half, Moore saw increased action on offense, totaling 14 snaps. However, he was unable to corral either target and also muffed a handoff on a fourth-and-short jet sweep. Moore has five catches for 25 yards and one touchdown on seven targets this season.

Thornton was not targeted in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Titans.

Thornton played just two offensive snaps in the Raiders' comfortable win, while fellow rookie Jack Bech remained in the WR3 role behind Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker. Thornton has gone three consecutive games without a reception, becoming an even tougher stash on deep fantasy benches with Las Vegas' bye approaching after a Week 7 contest in Kansas City.

Bech was held without a reception on one target in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Titans.

The 2025 second-round pick logged a season-high 46 offensive snaps while playing ahead of fellow rookie Dont'e Thornton (just two snaps on offense), but the increased playing time didn't translate into fantasy production for Bech. Meanwhile, a positive game script allowed for Ashton Jeanty and Raheem Mostert to combine for 28 total carries. A more difficult matchup at Kansas City awaits in Week 7, but Bech is still firmly behind Jakobi Meyers, Tre Tucker and, when healthy, Brock Bowers (knee) for targets from Geno Smith.

Shavers played 28 of the Bills' 57 snaps on offense and finished with three catches for 27 yards on five targets in Monday's 24-14 loss to the Falcons.

With two pass catchers in Curtis Samuel (neck/ribs) and Dalton Kincaid (oblique) inactive for the Week 6 contest and with another in Joshua Palmer (ankle) exiting the contest early, Shavers benefited from an expanded profile in the Buffalo offense. The third-year wideout out of San Diego State hadn't taken the field for more than one-third of Buffalo's offensive plays in any of the first five weeks and drew a combined five targets over that stretch, but he logged nearly half of the snaps Monday and finished one behind Keon Coleman for the team lead in targets. Despite the modest spike in production, Shavers is likely to see his role get downsized if Buffalo is able to reclaim some health in its pass-catching corps coming out of a Week 7 bye.

Zaccheaus caught two of six targets for 24 yards and rushed once for four yards in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

Zaccheaus has drawn at least four targets in every game and has two games with at least 40 receiving yards this season. Though he continues to play ahead of rookie Luther Burden as the Bears' No. 3 receiver, Zaccheaus' fantasy utility remains mostly limited to deeper leagues.

Johnson brought in one of his three targets for a 45-yard touchdown in the Buccaneers' 30-19 win over the 49ers on Sunday.

The Buccaneers entered the game without Mike Evans (hamstring) and Chris Godwin (fibula), and they then lost Emeka Egbuka to a hamstring injury during the contest. That led to Johnson playing a career-high 38 snaps (72 percent), and he showed off his signature speed on his one reception to catch up to a Baker Mayfield bomb on a post late in the third quarter for his first career touchdown. The rookie could be set for even more work in a Week 7 road showdown against the Lions next Monday night if the team's wide-receiver depth chart remains as atrophied as it is in the immediate wake of Week 6.
