Skowronek hauled in his lone target for a 23-yard touchdown during Sunday's 30-27 win over the Bengals.

Skowronek ranked fifth among Steelers receivers by playing 11 of the team's 62 offensive snaps, but the 29-year-old was able to connect with quarterback Aaron Rodgers on a pass to the end zone during his limited time on the field. Despite coming up with a big play in the Week 3 win, Skowronek remains likely to see most of his field time on special teams moving forward.

The Raiders placed Bech (forearm) on injured reserve Tuesday.

Bech will be sidelined for at least the Raiders' next four games after sustaining a fractured left forearm during Sunday's 35-27 win over the Saints. In a corresponding move, the Raiders signed Cody White off their practice squad. White could be the leading candidate to replace Bech as the Raiders' No. 3 wideout behind Tre Tucker and Jalen Nailor.

Godwin gathered in three of four targets for 25 yards during Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Vikings.

Godwin ranked third among Buccaneers wide receivers in snap share (62 percent) behind Ted Hurst (75 percent) and Emeka Egbuka (74 percent) in Week 3, resulting in his least productive performance of the season. On top of that, Godwin hasn't been targeted more than four times in a game so far on the campaign. With undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels set to take over Tampa Bay's offense for at least a few contests in the wake of Baker Mayfield's dislocated right thumb, Godwin doesn't have an ideal situation in which to build momentum from week to week.

The Giants signed Berrios off their practice squad Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

After failing to win a spot on the Giants' roster coming out of preseason, Berrios re-signed with the organization as a member of the practice squad. The Giants elevated him from the practice squad ahead of each of their first three games, with Berrios going without a target over 22 snaps on offense but holding a critical role on special teams as the team's kickoff and punt returner. With the Giants releasing Odell Beckham on Tuesday, Berrios will now be awarded a permanent spot on the 53-man roster.

The Giants plan to release Beckham on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport of NFL Network report.

Beckham's second stint in New York will end with a whimper, as he failed to haul in his lone target while playing just 20 total snaps over the Giants' first three games of the season. Since the 33-year-old wasn't able to earn consistent snaps in the receiver rotation and didn't contribute on special teams, the Giants deemed him an expandable piece. Beckham will look to find work elsewhere, but he could struggle to land with a team willing to give him meaningful playing time.

Hodge went without a target while logging 30 of the 49ers' 54 offensive snaps in Sunday's 36-30 win over the Cardinals.

With Mike Evans (rib) making an early exit from the contest, Hodge was the main beneficiary from a playing-time perspective. He finished second to only Deebo Samuel (40) in snaps among San Francisco receivers, but he ran routes on just 13 of his 30 snaps and failed to draw any looks from quarterback Brock Purdy. Even with injuries at receiver piling up for the 49ers, Hodge appears unlikely to emerge as a major part of the passing game.

Cowing failed to corral either of his two targets while playing 17 of the 49ers' 54 snaps on offense in Sunday's 36-30 win over the Cardinals.

Even though Demarcus Robinson (ankle) was moved to injured reserve following Week 2 and Mike Evans (rib) was unable to finish Sunday's contest, Cowing didn't benefit from much of a spike in playing time. In fact, after logging 24 of the 49ers' 52 offensive snaps (46.2 percent) in Week 2, Cowing saw his snap share drop to 31.5 percent. The biggest beneficiary of Robinson's absence and Evans' early exit was KhaDarel Hodge, who finished second to only Deebo Samuel (39) among 49ers receivers with 30 snaps.

Watkins recorded two receptions for 60 yards on two targets in Sunday's 36-30 win over the Cardinals.

Making his 2026 debut after he was a healthy inactive for the 49ers' first two contests, Watkins took the field for 15 of the team's 54 offensive snaps and was able to make a mark with 34- and 26-yard grabs. He still finished fifth among 49ers receivers in playing time, but he could see an uptick in opportunities if the rib strain Mike Evans suffered Sunday prevents him from playing Week 4 against the Broncos.

Jennings caught one of two targets for one yard Sunday in a 23-16 win against Tampa Bay.

Although Justin Jefferson (ankle) departed in the first half Sunday and didn't return, Jennings didn't see an increase in his production. He did, however, post an 80 percent offensive snap share, and Jennings figures to slide into the No. 2 wideout role alongside Jordan Addison on Sunday versus Miami if Jefferson can't suit up. Even with that in mind, Jennings has produced just one catch on three targets through two contests, so expectations should be held in check regardless of Jefferson's status.

Shakir caught one of his three targets for six yards in the Bills' 24-16 win over the Chargers on Sunday.

Shakir played 71 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps in the contest but caught just one pass. The wide receiver was bullied in coverage while Josh Allen struggled on a night when the team's offense combined for five total turnovers.
