Watson brought in six of eight targets for 143 yards and two touchdowns in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Bears on Sunday.

Watson tied for the team lead in receptions with Matthew Golden while setting the pace in both receiving yards and targets. Golden struck for the first of his two touchdowns with a 42-yard grab that capped off Green Bay's 10-play opening drive. The veteran field-stretcher then added a 53-yard touchdown reception to put a stamp on the Packers' first drive of the second half, and Watson ultimately finished just five yards short of eclipsing the season-high 147 he mustered in Week 1 against the Vikings. Watson will take a 26-474-6 line into a Week 6 home showdown against the Cowboys next Sunday night.

Hargrave (undisclosed) likely sustained a season-ending torn Achilles, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.

Hargrave was carted off the field near the end of the Packers' 31-7 blowout win over the Bears on Sunday. The defensive tackle now appears to be destined for season-ending IR unless the preliminary evaluation was drastically mishandled.

Olave secured four of six targets for 46 yards in the Saints' 23-13 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

Olave found himself in the familiar position of either tying for the team lead or setting the pace for the Saints in receptions, receiving yards and targets, but the numbers he generated in each of those categories left plenty to be desired. Olave's substandard production should be taken in context, however, considering Tyler Shough threw for only 96 yards at 3.8 yards per attempt and was picked off twice as well. Olave's numbers were easily season lows across the board, but he should have a good chance to bounce back in a Week 6 road matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

The Cardinals agreed to trade Harrison and a seventh-round pick to the Texans for second- and sixth-round selections, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Since Adam Schefter of ESPN reported Saturday that Arizona had agreed to deal Harrison to an undisclosed team, Houston had been bandied about in the rumor mill as the organization in question. Now, the move to the AFC South has been confirmed. With his new team, Harrison may need some time to acclimate himself to a new scheme and QB C.J. Stroud, but the fourth overall pick in the 2024 is a decent gamble for a Texans team in search of a consistent second WR option behind No. 1 Nico Collins.

Jefferson (ankle) brought in six of seven targets for 79 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for minus-11 yards in the Vikings' 23-13 win over the Saints on Sunday. He also committed a fumble that remained with Minnesota.

Making his return from a one-game absence due to an ankle injury, Jefferson capitalized on an opportunity to perform in front of his home-state crowd. The perennial Pro Bowler was expected to be busy due to Jordan Addison's (hamstring) inactive status, and Jefferson ultimately led the Vikings across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The veteran receiver added his first touchdown since Week 1 when he recorded an impressive 15-yard scoring grab in the back corner of the end zone to cap off the first possession of the second half, and Jefferson will next set his sights on a vulnerable Colts defense in a Week 7 home matchup on Sunday, Oct. 25 following a Week 6 bye.

Winston (quadriceps) will undergo an MRI, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.

Winston experienced quad tightness before kickoff. While he was listed as questionable to return, he never made it back into the contest. If Winston misses time moving ahead, Terrell Burgess could see more snaps.

Hargrave (undisclosed) was carted off the field in the final minutes of Sunday's game against the Bears, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Since Hargrave suffered his injury near the end of the game, he never received an official injury designation. The defensive tackle being unable to move off the field signals that the injury is likely significant.

Pitre departed with a shoulder injury and never returned during Sunday's 40-20 win over the Cardinals.

Pitre recorded four tackles (two solo) before exiting, and he was seen with his left shoulder in a sling after the game, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. The 27-year-old has been a stalwart in Houston's secondary since his rookie season, but he's missed multiple games with injuries in each of the last three seasons. The Texans will next play an international game versus the Jaguars in London on Sunday, Oct. 18.

Jones (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Jones exited the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest with a shoulder injury. Jones' exit came with the Patriots up 45-17, meaning the linebacker will likely not return to the contest regardless of the results of his evaluation.

Odeyingbo (quadriceps) is doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Packers.

Odeyingbo suffered a quad injury during the second half of Sunday's contest and was listed as questionable to return. After further inspection, the defensive end's chances of returning to the contest are even slimmer, meaning it will likely not happen.
