Hodgins reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday.

Hodgins got the callup with Malik Nabers (concussion) out of action. The Oregon State product saw 25 snaps on offense but never saw a target. If Nabers were to remain out in Week 6 against the Bengals, Hodgins would likely see another opportunity with the active roster.

Smith reverted to the Rams' practice squad Monday.

Smith was elevated for his third and final eligible time for Sunday's loss to the Packers. The 27-year-old saw two targets in the matchup, catching both for a total of six yards. If he's going to suit up in Week 7, after the team's bye week, he'll need to be signed to the 53-man roster or waived and re-signed.

Mims caught his lone target for seven yards and carried the ball once for 17 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.

Mims' seven-yard grab Sunday was just his third catch of the season as the second-year wideout continues to play a limited role in Denver's offense. The 22-year-old played just 12 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps in the contest, limiting his opportunities to have an impact. Mims is best left off the fantasy radar as the Broncos head into a Week 6 matchup against the Chargers.

Bachman reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday.

Bachman was elevated to the active roster with Davante Adams (hamstring) out of action. The Wake Forest product saw one snap on offense, and although he handled punt return duties, he only got to handle two fair catches. With Adams likely remaining out for Las Vegas, the 28-year-old Bachman may find himself back with the team for Week 6.

Turner caught one of four targets for 12 yards and added five rushing yards on his lone carry in Sunday's 34-18 loss to the Broncos.

Turner drew the first official start of his three-year career next to Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker, with Davante Adams (hamstring) sidelined for Sunday's contest, but Turner didn't contribute much despite logging a season-high 52 offensive snaps. He could remain quite active in three-wide sets if Adams forces his way out of Las Vegas, as trade rumors continue to swirl ahead of a Week 6 matchup against the Steelers.

Franklin caught one of his two targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.

Franklin played just 11 of the Broncos' 63 offensive snaps Sunday, the fewest of any Denver wide receiver. Despite his minimal usage, the rookie hit a season-high for receiving yards (20) on his one catch against the Raiders. It's possible Franklin's role could grow within Denver's offense as the season progresses while his college teammate and current quarterback Bo Nix continues to develop this season. Until then, the former Oregon wideout will be off the fantasy radar. The Broncos are set to host the Chargers in Week 6.

Tucker caught two of five targets for 18 yards and took two carries for eight yards in Sunday's 34-18 loss to the Broncos.

Tucker has now drawn at least five targets in three consecutive games, but his production Sunday was disappointing even with Davante Adams (hamstring) sidelined. Brock Bowers and Jakobi Meyers, meanwhile, combined for 14 catches, 169 yards and a touchdown. Tucker's rest-of-season outlook would still improve if the trade rumors surrounding Adams pan out.

Humphrey secured both of his targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.

After failing to record a catch in Week 4, Humphrey improved upon his disappointing outing with a two-catch game against the Raiders in Week 5. Rookie quarterback Bo Nix and Denver's passing attack took a step forward Sunday, as the signal caller was able to spread the ball around to 11 different pass catchers in the contest. The 26-year-old Humphrey played the second-most snaps at wide receiver for the Broncos, seeing the field for 40 of Denver's 63 offensive snaps. As Denver continues to find its way on offense, it's possible the veteran could parlay his consistent playing time into improved production for fantasy purposes. Humphrey and the Broncos will host the Chargers in Week 6.

Reynolds caught one of two targets for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-18 win over the Raiders.

Reynolds touchdown Sunday was his first score of the 2024 campaign, coming on a day when the Broncos passing attack found its groove. With that said, the veteran wideout was not involved heavily in the offense against the Raiders, playing on 48 percent of the Broncos' offensive snaps while seeing targets on just two of quarterback Bo Nix's 27 pass attempts. Through five games, Reynolds has totaled 12 receptions for 183 yards on 19 targets. The 29-year-old will look to build off Sunday's performance when the Broncos host the Chargers in Week 6.

Dortch hauled in one of two targets for seven yards and returned one kickoff for 27 yards and one punt for one yard during Sunday's 24-23 win at San Francisco.

Dortch's target volume matched his season low, and his catch and yardage totals also marked his worst of the campaign. He didn't lack in snaps (24 of 58) working as the Cardinals' No. 3 wideout behind Marvin Harrison (44) and Michael Wilson (42), but that duo combined for a 7-114-0 line on 13 targets. Tight end Trey McBride paced the team with nine targets in his return from a one game absence. With James Conner seeing one more target than Dortch, the latter wouldn't seem to be any higher than fifth in the pecking order for looks from Kyler Murray at the moment.
