Doubs brought in all three targets for 62 yards in the Packers' 16-10 win over the Colts on Sunday.

Doubs tied for the team lead in receptions while setting the pace in receiving yards, as he was on the other end of Malik Willis' longest pass play of the day (39 yards). Doubs was the only Packers wideout to cross the 50-yard threshold while Willis ran a mostly conservative game plan and Green Bay leaned heavily on Josh Jacobs and its defense. The third-year wideout has produced a 7-112 line on 10 targets over his first two games as a Week 3 road date with the Titans approaches.

Nabers caught 10 of 18 targets for 127 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Commanders.

The rookie wideout was Daniel Jones' first read, and usually his only one, for most of the afternoon, as the rest of the Giants' pass catchers combined for only six catches on 10 targets for 51 yards. While a four-yard grab just before halftime gave Nabers his first career TD, it was one of the passes he couldn't haul in that will likely stick with him. On New York's final possession in the fourth quarter with the score tied 18-18, Nabers couldn't handle a sideline pass on fourth down that would have extended the team's drive. With his spot as the Giants' top downfield threat secure, Nabers will face a much tougher test in Week 3 against the Browns' stingy secondary.

Reed secured both targets for nine yards and rushed twice for 37 yards in the Packers' 16-10 win over the Colts on Sunday. He also returned a punt for no gain and committed a fumble recovered by Green Bay.

Reed once again flashed impressive skills in space, but his most productive touches by far came as a runner. The versatile second-year pro rattled off gains of 22 and 15 yards on his pair of carries, while his receiving line was unsurprisingly subdued with Malik Willis being asked to run a very conservative game plan in place of Jordan Love (knee). Reed's receiving numbers are almost certainly going to continue taking a hit during what is expected to be a multi-game absence for Love, although it's possible Willis is tasked with more downfield passing in a Week 3 visit to the Titans.

Hopkins secured one of two targets for nine yards in the Titans' 24-17 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Hopkins was expected to have a larger role than during his 17-snap Week 1, but the veteran wideout simply wasn't looked at very often by Will Levis. Hopkins now has back-to-back one-catch tallies for a total of 17 yards over his first two games, and he'll encounter some tough cornerback play when the Packers come calling for a Week 3 visit next Sunday.

Ridley brought in four of six targets for 77 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for 10 yards and another score in the Titans' 24-17 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

The highlight of Ridley's afternoon came on a late third-quarter touchdown grab down the right sideline, when the veteran wideout somehow came down with a Will Levis pass in traffic at the two-yard line and found his way into the end zone. Ridley was solely responsible for Tennessee's other end-zone visit as well, scoring on a 10-yard end around late in the first quarter. Despite Levis' average play thus far, Ridley has drawn 13 targets and parlayed them into a 7-127-1 line, in addition to the rushing TD. Ridley will aim to keep up the strong start in a Week 3 home matchup against the Packers.

Aiyuk had four receptions (five targets) for 43 yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to Minnesota.

Aiyuk was limited to five targets for the second consecutive week but saw his production increase against the Vikings compared to last week's two-catch dud against the Jets. The star wideout's low involvement was foreshadowed by head coach Kyle Shanahan prior to Week 1 after Aiyuk missed the entirety of the preseason schedule while in search of a contract extension. Dual-threat superstar Christian McCaffrey (calf/Achilles) was placed on injured reserve prior to Sunday's tilt and will be missing in action for at least the first six games of the season. Deebo Samuel (8/110/0) and George Kittle (7/76/1) have picked up the slack in the passing game while Aiyuk continues to reintegrate into the game plan. The 49ers have thrown just one touchdown pass through two games this season, so a Week 3 matchup against the Rams could be when we see Aiyuk break out of his early season slump.

Cooper recorded three receptions on eight targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 18-13 win over the Jaguars.

Deshaun Watson has looked Cooper's way consistently in the first two weeks of the season, with Cooper earning a combined 17 targets. However, the duo have yet to get on the same page, and Cooper has amassed only five receptions for 26 total yards as a result. That inefficiency will make him difficult to trust in the immediate future, particularly because Watson has displayed better rapport with Jerry Jeudy.

Thielen brought in two of three targets for 20 yards in the Panthers' 26-3 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.

Thielen's line was wholly uninspiring, but considering Bryce Young threw for only 84 yards overall, the wideout's yardage total actually qualified as the second highest on the Panthers for the afternoon. Like fellow accomplished veteran receiver Diontae Johnson, Thielen's fantasy value is significantly hampered by Young's shortcomings at the moment, and there's little reason to believe that will change in a Week 3 road matchup against the Raiders.

Johnson brought in three of six targets for 15 yards in the Panthers' 26-3 loss to the Chargers on Sunday.

The veteran was once again a victim of circumstance, as Bryce Young threw for only 84 yards on 3.2 yards per attempt. Johnson did draw a team-high amount of targets that also matched his Week 1 total. As expected, Young sees Johnson as a reliable receiver, but the second-year quarterback's inability to get the ball downfield will continue to cap Johnson's fantasy value heading into a Week 3 road matchup against the Raiders.

St. Brown, who briefly left Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers, appears to be dealing with a lower-body issue, Kyle Meinke of mlive.com reports.

Per Meinke, St. Brown was seen limping out of the locker room after Sunday's contest, but for now the wideout's unspecified injury isn't believed to be serious. With that in mind, coach Dan Campbell said, "He's all right. I don't think it's anything long-term, so that's good news." In any case, this report makes St. Brown's status worth monitoring ahead of next weekend's game against the Cardinals.
