NFL Player News

The Broncos are confident that Bryant avoided a long-term right ankle injury after an MRI on Monday yielded good news, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

The report doesn't offer any specifics regarding what the MRI revealed, but Bryant may have avoided a dreaded high-ankle sprain after exiting Sunday's 24-14 loss to the 49ers. Bryant still appears likely to miss time due to the injury, with Adam Schefter of ESPN relaying Monday that the second-year wideout is expected to be sidelined for "a few weeks." Assuming Bryant is out for at least this Sunday's game against the Chargers, the Broncos would have more reps available for Marvin Mims and Troy Franklin behind starting receivers Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton.

Vele secured six of nine targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 45-24 loss to the Falcons on Monday night.

Vele tied for second in receptions and checked in as the runner-up in targets for the Saints on the night, and he rounded out a solid fantasy performance by recording a three-yard touchdown reception with 1:13 remaining. The score was ultimately meaningless to the outcome of the lopsided loss, but Vele further cemented his standing a relatively high-volume No. 2 receiver by tying his season high in targets. Vele will take a 21-226-2 line on 31 targets into a Week 5 home matchup against the Vikings on Sunday.

Kupp caught one of two targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 30-23 win over the Chargers.

Kupp played 34 of 60 offensive snaps and ran 17 routes on Sam Darnold's 26 dropbacks. The veteran wide receiver has failed to reach 50 receiving yards in any of the first four games, totaling nine grabs for 114 yards and a touchdown on 12 targets. He's well off the fantasy radar with Jaxon Smith-Njigba dominating the looks in Seattle.

Walker caught one of his two targets for 19 yards during Baltimore's win over the Titans on Sunday.

Walker managed to record his second reception of the season, as he continues to make a limited impact offensively even with Ja'Kobi Lane (wrist) on injured reserve. Walker will look to be more productive during the Week 5 matchup versus the Falcons.

Johnson caught two passes for 17 yards during Tampa Bay's loss versus the Packers on Sunday.

Johnson hauled in a season-high two receptions during the loss but still continues to see limited playing time as the team's No. 4 receiver. It would likely take an injury to either Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin or Ted Hurst for Johnson to see a larger role offensively.

Olave secured eight of 12 targets for 116 yards in the Saints' 45-24 loss to the Falcons on Monday night.

Olave was in the customary position of leading the Saints in receptions, receiving yards and targets, putting together his third 100-yard effort, including his second straight, of 2026. Olave also extended his season-opening streak of games with double-digit targets to four, and although Jeff Nowak of WWLAM-FM reports the talented receiver took a hit to the knee on New Orleans' final drive and went to the sideline, he never entered the medical tent. Assuming Olave is no worse for wear, he'll once again be slated for a prominent role in a Week 5 home matchup against the Vikings on Sunday.

London brought in five of six targets for 96 yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.

London set the pace for the Falcons' pass catchers for the second straight contest in all of receptions, receiving yards and targets, although his totals were appreciably more modest than the 9-194-0 line he'd produced on 10 targets in Week 3 against the Packers. Nevertheless, London and Michael Penix have quickly clicked during the latter's first two games of the season following his recovery from last year's ACL tear, and the talented receiver's prospects will therefore remain bright for a Week 5 home interconference showdown against the Ravens on Sunday night.

Sarratt reeled in one of two targets for 13 yards in a 24-18 win against Tennessee on Sunday.

Sarratt was active for just the second time this season and got a chance on offense for the first time in his NFL career. The rookie fourth-round pick logged a healthy 23 offensive snaps and drew two targets, catching one for a 13-yard gain. Sarratt's opportunity came with Chris Moore (ankle) missing the contest, so if Moore is able to return for Week 5 against Atlanta, Sarratt could again be a healthy scratch.

Raymond caught two passes for six yards and returned two punts for 16 yards during Chicago's win Sunday over the Jets.

Raymond had a quiet outing just one week after leading the team with 90 receiving yards during the win over the Eagles. The 31-year-old has caught 21 passes for 220 yards and one touchdown across four games this season and should continue to serve as the Bears' No. 3 receiver behind Rome Odunze and Luther Burden.

Tremayne caught two of three passes for 32 yards during Sunday's 32-26 win over the Lions.

Tremayne actually led all Panthers wide receivers with 69 offensive snaps, and that extra playing time was largely due to the absence of Jalen Coker (quadriceps). Even with the elevated snap count, Sunday's game was the Tetairoa McMillan show, with the second-year wideout finishing with a 14-192-2 receiving line on 16 targets. After not seeing a target from Bryce Young in the first two games of the season, Tremayne has turned nine targets into 6 catches for 115 yards over the Panthers' last two contests. Carolina is on a bye for Week 5, and Tremayne's role would likely shrink against the Eagles in Week 6 if Coker is cleared to return.
