Collins caught seven of 10 targets for 75 yards and a touchdown while adding a seven-yard run in Sunday's 36-31 loss to the Bills.

C.J. Stroud connected with Collins for a 12-yard touchdown in the second quarter, marking the first touchdown of the season for both Houston's quarterback and the team's star wide receiver. Collins led the Texans in targets, catches and receiving yards Sunday after finishing as Houston's receiving yards leader in each of the previous three regular seasons. He is locked in as Stroud's top target heading into a Week 2 home game against the Bengals.

Wilson caught six of seven targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 23-10 win over the Titans.

Wilson paced the team in targets, catches and receiving yards while no teammate exceeded three targets as the Jets employed a run-heavy approach while playing from ahead. Poor QB play and a knee injury limited Wilson to a career-low 395 receiving yards in seven appearances last season, but he had at least 1,042 receiving yards in each of his first three campaigns. Wilson is set to continue working as the top target for offseason acquisition Geno Smith in Week 2 against the Packers.

Flowers (hamstring) has been ruled out for remainder of Sunday's game against the Colts, Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.

The Ravens had labeled Flowers as questionable to return after he exited midway through the second quarter due to a hamstring injury, but despite returning to the sideline for the start of the second half, the star wideout won't check back into the contest. He was at least able to deliver an excellent line for fantasy managers prior to his departure, posting five catches for 150 yards and a touchdown on six targets. Considering that Flowers had appeared on the Week 1 injury report due to a hamstring issue, he most likely suffered an aggravation at some point during Sunday's contest. The Ravens could send Flowers in for an MRI before having a better feel for his status heading into a Week 2 matchup with the Saints.

Sturdivant (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings.

The undrafted rookie out of Florida impressed the Packers' coaching staff enough to crack the 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he'll have to wait until Week 2 against the Jets on Sunday, Sept. 20, to make his regular-season debut. Bo Melton and Skyy Moore will be the depth wideouts for Sunday's NFC North clash behind Christian Watson, Jayden Reed and Matthew Golden.

Moore (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders.

DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, Makai Lemon and Hollywood Brown are set to be the starting four wide receivers for the Eagles in Week 1. Moore is the odd man out, set to likely be inactive until another player wastes his chance or gets injured.

Burks (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

Burks appeared in eight of the Commanders' final nine games of the 2025 regular season after being released by the Titans in October. However, the 2022 first-rounder will join Luke McCaffrey (coach's decision) in street clothes Sunday, with the Commanders opting for five active wide receivers for game day. Burks' next chance to play is Week 2 against the Cowboys on Sunday, Sept. 20.

McCaffrey (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Eagles.

McCaffrey, a third-round selection of the Commanders in 2024 NFL Draft, appeared in 26 regular-season games over the first two years of his NFL career. However, he'll be a healthy scratch for Sunday's regular-season opener, with the Commanders carrying five active wide receivers for Week 1. McCaffrey's next chance to play is Week 2 against the Cowboys on Sunday, Sept. 20.

The Ravens announced that Lane has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Colts due to a wrist injury.

The rookie's early exit could force the Ravens to finish the season opener with just three receivers; Devontez Walker (groin) and Elijah Sarratt (coach's decision) are inactive for the contest, while Zay Flowers is questionable to return after tweaking his hamstring in the first half. Lane had a quiet showing in his injury-shortened NFL debut, finishing the day with an 11-yard reception on three targets.

Tolbert (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

With many unproven wide recievers on the roster, Tolbert will take a backseat to the trio of rookies consisting of Caleb Douglas, Chris Bell and Kevin Coleman. The fifth-year veteran will likely only get a shot at suiting up if the youth do not show enough promise over the next couple of games.

Thomas (shoulder) returned to Sunday's game against the Browns late in the second quarter, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.

Initially labeled questionable to return after he required a trip to the locker room in the second quarter to have his shoulder examined, Thomas was able to return to the field for the Jaguars' final drive of the first half, which ended in a punt.
