Coleman secured six of seven targets for 116 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 29-26 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

DJ Moore went down in the first half with a shoulder injury, opening up plenty of opportunity in the Bills' air attack. Coleman almost fully maximized his additional targets, recording a team-high yardage figure while finishing second in both receptions and targets. Coleman's first two pro seasons were marked by inconsistency, but the third-year wideout has secured 14 of 16 targets for 217 yards and a touchdown over the first four games and 10 of his catches have resulted in first downs. Coleman's 34-yard touchdown grab Sunday also would have delivered the game-winning points had Drake Maye not mounted a successful drive on the ensuing possession, and Coleman could remain in an elevated role during a Week 5 road matchup against the Rams on Monday night, Oct. 12 if Moore is sidelined for that contest.

Harrison caught one of four targets for 12 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-24 loss to the Giants.

The struggling third-year WR hit paydirt for the first time this season, connecting with Jacoby Brissett for his only catch of the afternoon in the first quarter to cap the Cardinals' opening drive. Harrison has only five receptions through four games for just 85 yards on a meager 13 targets, and a change of scenery increasingly seems like it might offer his best chance to salvage his career. He'll try to earn a bigger role in the passing game in Week 5 at home against the Lions.

Wilson caught seven of 13 targets for 95 yards in Sunday's 36-24 loss to the Giants.

The yardage and targets led the Cardinals on the afternoon, while his seven receptions tied Trey McBride for the team lead. Wilson has emerged as the clear No. 1 wideout for Jacoby Brissett, and he was the intended target on Deonte Banks' 98-yard pick-six that sealed the win for New York on the final play of the game. Wilson will take a 25-258-1 line on 44 targets through four games into a Week 5 tile at home against the Lions.

Thornton exited Sunday's game agains the Raiders with a left ankle injury and will not return.

Thornton was injured at the end of a long catch in the fourth quarter when he was tackled from behind, as the defender fell on his ankle. It was an obviously serious injury, with Thornton's foot pointing the wrong direction. He was put in a cast and carted off the field. Thornton was having a career game in Las Vegas, catching five of eight targets for 111 yards and two touchdowns prior to his injury. Jalen Royals is next up at wideout alongside Xavier Worthy after Rashee Rice (hamstring) left with an injury earlier in the day Sunday.

Bryant (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.

Bryant was injured at the tail end of a catch in the second half and had to be carted to the locker room. That he's being considered questionable to return may suggest it's not a serious injury for Bryant. Prior to leaving, he caught all three of his targets for 47 yards. Marvin Mims and Troy Franklin are next in line for snaps behind Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton.

Coker (quadriceps) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Lions, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

Coker thus will miss his first contest of the season due to a quadriceps issue that he picked up last Sunday in Cleveland. He was able to log limited sessions Thursday and Friday, so his absence in Week 4 may be the Panthers exercising caution with a Week 5 bye on tap to ensure he's good to go afterward. With Coker out of the lineup this weekend and Xavier Legette (knee) getting moved to IR on Saturday, Tetairoa McMillan will be Carolina's clear-cut No. 1 pass catcher Sunday, with Brycen Tremayne, John Metchie, David Moore and Ja'seem Reed the options to fill in the other wide receivers spots.

Doubs secured six of nine targets for 58 yards and two touchdowns in the Patriots' 29-26 win over the Bills on Sunday.

Doubs put together a performance befitting his current role as No. 1 receiver in the ongoing absence of A.J. Brown (ankle, IR), recording his first two touchdowns as a member of the Patriots while finishing as the team leader in receptions and targets with figures that also qualified as season highs. Doubs struck from 14 and two yards out in the first and third quarter, respectively, on his pair of scoring grabs, and after a blanking in Week 1 against Seattle, he's bounced back with a 12-203-2 line on 20 targets. Doubs will next try to make inroads against a tough Raiders defense at home in Week 5.

Flowers caught eight of 10 targets for 118 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-18 win over the Titans.

The fourth-year wideout didn't appear hampered by the minor hamstring issue he's been playing through, as he led the Ravens in catches, targets and receiving yards while connecting with Lamar Jackson (ankle) for a 19-yard score early in the second quarter. Jackson's day was done at halftime and he was seen in a walking boot after the game, but per Jonas Shaffer of TheBaltimoreBanner.com, coach Jesse Minter suggested the QB might have tried playing in the second half if it seemed necessary to preserve the win. If Tyler Huntley is under center in Week 5 against the Falcons instead of Jackson, it could impact Flowers' ability to produce big numbers again. In three games, Flowers has delivered an 18-352-2 line on just 22 targets.

Bryant (leg) was carted off the field in the third quarter of Sunday's contest against the 49ers, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

Bryant suffered a right leg injury after a catch and run of 30 yards with 2:47 left in the third quarter. The wide receiver's day is almost certainly done, and it's possible that he will be forced to miss action moving forward. More information on his status will likely be provided in the near future, and in the meantime, Jaylen Waddle and Courtland Sutton will continue to operate as the top two wideouts for Denver.

McConkey won't return to Sunday's contest at Seattle due to a foot injury.

McConkey may have aggravated the foot issue he tended to in advance of this game, but in any case he had no catches (on two targets) at the point of his departure in the third quarter. With the third-year pro ruled out Sunday, Quentin Johnston, Tre' Harris, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Derius Davis represent the Chargers' healthy available wide receivers for the rest of Week 4 action.
