Xavier Legette WR | CAR
Panthers' Xavier Legette: Career day in win
Legette caught nine of 11 targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
The 2024 first-round pick had the best game of his pro career in the Week 7 win, setting personal highs in both receptions (nine) and receiving yards (92). He led the Panthers' receiving corps in catches, yards and touchdowns, while Tetairoa McMillan, Jimmy Horn and Jalen Coker combined for just four catches for 41 yards on nine targets. Legette has now hauled in 17 of 31 targets for 142 yards and two touchdowns across five appearances this season. He's expected to continue operating as the Panthers' No. 2 wideout and primary deep threat heading into the Week 8 matchup against the Bills.

Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE
Browns' Jerry Jeudy: Limited to two grabs in win
Jeudy secured two of four targets for 17 yards in the Browns' 31-6 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.
Jeudy tied with multiple teammates for second in receptions and was also the runner-up for the Browns in targets. However, with Dillon Gabriel barely clearing the 100-yard mark through the air, those numbers were exceedingly modest. Jeudy's five-catch, 66-yard tally back in Week 1 against the Bengals remains his best performance of the season, and he'll head into a Week 8 road matchup against the Patriots having fallen short of 20 receiving yards in two of the last three games.

Andre Szmyt K | CLE
Browns' Andre Szmyt: Makes every kick Sunday
Szmyt went 1-for-1 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-4 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 31-6 win over the Dolphins.
Szmyt's field goal came from 30 yards out. The Syracuse product is now 10-of-12 on field-goal tries and 11-of-12 on extra-point attempts in 2025. Before Sunday, the Browns had not scored more than 17 points all year, so their kicker is largely dependent on the amount of opportunities he gets.

Nahshon Wright CB | CHI
Bears' Nahshon Wright: Picks off pass in victory
Wright posted two tackles and intercepted a pass in the Bears' 26-14 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Wright's interception marked his second of the season, and his two-tackle total represents the first time he has had less than four stops in four games. He remains an IDP bench option with occasional upside.

Malik Washington WR | MIA
Dolphins' Malik Washington: Five catches in Week 7 loss
Washington brought in five of eight targets for 30 yards, returned four kickoffs for 114 yards and ran back one punt for 11 yards in the Dolphins' 31-6 loss to the Browns on Sunday.
The speedy second-year wideout led the Dolphins in receptions and targets on a very low-volume day for Miami's passing attack. Washington's catch, yardage and target totals were all season highs, but he continues to be used almost exclusively in a short-area role, capping his upside except in formats that also count return yardage.

Ryan Fitzgerald K | CAR
Panthers' Ryan Fitzgerald: Makes two FGAs in win
Fitzgerald made both of his field-goal attempts and an extra-point try in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
Fitzgerald made a 30-yard field goal in the first quarter before later adding a make from 29 yards in the third. The kicker has now made multiple field goals in back-to-back contests and three of the last four. Fitzgerald has made 12 of 13 field-goal tries and 13 of 14 PATs over seven games this season.
