Wilson secured one of two targets for seven yards during Sunday's 31-17 loss to Seattle.

Although Wilson's workload remained low in Sunday's Week 2 loss, he recorded his first catch of the regular season and also saw a slight uptick in playing time, as he was on the field for 21 offensive snaps compared to 10 during last week's regular-season opener. He saw the third-highest snap count of any Steelers wide receiver, but he's unlikely to have a fantasy-relevant role as long as DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin stay healthy.

Legette caught one of eight targets for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Cardinals.

The second-year wideout has managed just four receptions for eight yards through two games this season, a concerning start considering the Panthers attempted 90 passes over that span. However, there's still reason for optimism regarding Legette's season-long fantasy output, as his 15 targets tie Hunter Renfrow for the second-most on the team. Legette will look to turn that volume into production in a divisional matchup against the Falcons in Week 3.

Young didn't receive a target over eight offensive snaps in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Steelers.

Young's an extremely athletic receiver who hasn't quite put things together offensively since entering the league as a seventh-round pick in 2022. However, he continues to be a strong special-teams player, as he notched a tackle in that capacity in Sunday's game.

Bobo wasn't targeted in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Steelers.

Bobo played 10 offensive snaps but couldn't get Sam Darnold's attention, as Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp combined for a 63 percent target share. Still, Bobo is a valued run blocker for the Seahawks, and he'll continue to play a role on special teams, too.

Austin recorded one reception on four targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 31-17 loss to Seattle.

Austin looked like he was starting a breakout season after a strong Week 1 showing, but his performance took a significant dip in Week 2. Beyond the lackluster stat line, he ran the wrong route in the end zone late in the third quarter, with the ball ultimately being picked by Seattle. Austin is likely to continue to earn snaps, but his production will also remain inconsistent.

Downs recorded six receptions on eight targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 29-28 win over the Broncos.

Downs wasn't prioritized in the Colts' Week 1 offense, though he led the team in both targets and receptions in Week 2. He was busy early in the game, as he recorded two receptions for 29 yards on the team's first four offensive plays. Tyler Warren has quickly emerged as Daniel Jones' favorite target, leaving Downs as likely to rotate productive games with the likes of Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce.

Thornton brought in two of five targets for 59 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Eagles.

Thornton left his mark on this contest when he beat his defensive assignment deep for a 49-yard touchdown grab in the fourth quarter of an eventual loss. The former Patriot had just one reception for 10 yards on his previous four targets, highlighting the boom-or-bust nature of his role in this offense. With Xavier Worthy (shoulder) trending towards a Week 3 return, Thornton could find himself back in a reserve role against the Giants next Sunday.

Ayomanor recorded four receptions on six targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-19 loss to the Rams.

Ayomanor has quickly emerged as a key player in the Tennessee offense, as he tied Chig Okonkwo and Calvin Ridley with six targets. He made a pair of explosive plays on the same drive, first making a one-handed catch down the left sideline for a 23-yard gain. Three plays later, he got himself open as Cam Ward scrambled for several seconds, and the duo ultimately connected from a nine-yard score -- the first touchdown of Ayomanor's career. Ayomanor has shown rapport throughout both the preseason and regular season with Ward, and he should continue to emerge as the season progresses.

Nailor had three receptions on five targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Falcons.

Nailor wound up finishing second behind star wideout Justin Jefferson (3-81-0) in both targets and receiving yards Sunday. The 26-year-old Nailor could have had a much bigger fantasy night had QB J.J. McCarthy not airmailed his target on what would have been a lengthy touchdown grab. Nailor will see an elevated role for one more game against the Bengals next Sunday before Jordan Addison returns from suspension in Week 4 to reclaim his starting role.

Renfrow (ribs) racked up seven receptions on nine targets for 48 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's 27-22 loss to Arizona.

Renfrow was cleared from the rib injury that limited him during the practice week, and his strong play solidified his clean bill of health. The veteran slot man was held to just 11 yards on two receptions in his first action since 2023 last week, but this was a significant spike in both usage and production. Both of Renfrow's scores were quick strikes from within five yards of the end zone as Carolina tried to claw its way back into this contest. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect this kind of scoring output on a regular basis, but Renfrow can generate PPR value against the Falcons next Sunday.
