  • Jaylen Waddle WR | DEN

    Broncos' Jaylen Waddle: First TD as Bronco in loss

    Waddle secured five of six targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in the Broncos' 24-14 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

    Waddle recorded his first touchdown as a member of the Broncos at a critical juncture, as his 13-yard scoring grab with just over four minutes remaining helped Denver get to within three points at the time. Waddle also finished second in receptions and tied for runner-up status in targets as well, and he's now seen a total of 23 passes from Bo Nix come his way in the last three contests. The Broncos' air attack and Waddle's chemistry with Nix remains a work in progress, but the veteran receiver takes a solid 16-185-1 line on 26 targets into a Week 5 divisional road matchup against the Chargers next Sunday.

  • DJ Moore WR | BUF

    Bills' DJ Moore: Injury not considered long-term

    Moore (shoulder) is dealing with an injury that isn't considered long-term, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Moore exited Sunday's loss to the Patriots after aggravating a previous shoulder injury. He isn't expected to miss significant time, though it remains to be seen if Moore will play against the Rams in Week 5. The 29-year-old wide receiver has suited up for 92 consecutive regular-season games dating back to the 2020 season.

  • Mike Evans WR | SF

    49ers' Mike Evans: Productive despite injury Sunday

    Evans brought in five of eight targets for 76 yards in the 49ers' 24-14 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

    Despite playing through a rib injury, Evans tied for the team lead in receptions while also setting the pace in receiving yards and targets for the 49ers on the afternoon. The veteran wideout's totals in the latter pair of categories were also new season highs, and having presumably made it through the game without setbacks, Evans has a bright fantasy outlook overall heading into a tough Week 5 road showdown against the Seahawks next Sunday.

  • Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Notches 76 receiving yards

    Smith-Njigba gathered in five of six targets for 76 yards during Sunday's 30-23 win against the Chargers.

    Smith-Njigba's 27-405-6 line on 36 targets through three games to kick off the campaign perhaps wasn't sustainable, but his Week 4 performance was nothing to sniff at considering he paced the Seahawks in targets among QB Sam Darnold's 22 pass attempts. Smith-Njigba put up at least as many receiving yards in 15 of his 17 regular-season appearances in 2025 as he did Sunday, so a bounceback seems likely when he next takes the field next Sunday versus the 49ers.

  • Packers' Matthew Golden: Records TD catch in win

    Golden brought in three of seven targets for 21 yards and a touchdown in the Packers' 17-14 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also rushed once for six yards.

    Jordan Love threw for a modest 197 yards overall on the afternoon, so Golden's subdued production can be viewed within that context. The second-year speedster tied with Tucker Kraft for the team lead in targets on the afternoon, and although Golden brought in less than half of them. he recorded his second touchdown grab of the campaign on a two-yard reception early in the second quarter. Golden's reception and yardage totals were season lows, but he still on pace for a breakout second campaign with an 18-274-2 line going into a Week 5 home divisional matchup against the Bears next Sunday.

  • Emeka Egbuka WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Limited production in Week 4 loss

    Egbuka brought in two of four targets for 13 yards in the Buccaneers' 17-14 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

    Egbuka's production downturn was at least partly the result of Jalon Daniels' up-and-down NFL debut under center. The second-year wideout was third in targets and tied for third in receptions with multiple teammates on the afternoon, but only Egbuka's yardage total, which was a season low, only bested that of Kameron Johnson's (three yards) in the loss. Egbuka now has a 15-154-1 line on 24 targets over his first four games, and with Baker Mayfield reportedly in line to miss up to a total of seven weeks, the former will have to progressively build chemistry with Daniels to retain solid fantasy value.

  • Chris Godwin WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Six catches in Week 4 loss

    Godwin brought in six of seven targets for 31 yards in the Buccaneers' 17-14 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

    Godwin led the Buccaneers in receptions and targets while finishing second in receiving yards on the afternoon. The latter total was especially nothing to write home about, but it was the byproduct of rookie Jalon Daniels throwing for only 148 yards in his NFL debut. Godwin and the rest of the Buccaneers' air attack currently have fairly dim prospects while Daniels takes his initial lumps at the NFL level, and with Baker Mayfield unlikely to return before November per latest reports, the veteran receiver has limited fantasy value for the foreseeable future.

  • Malik Nabers WR | NYG

    Giants' Malik Nabers: Gets on same page with Winston in Week 4 win

    Nabers caught six of seven targets for 112 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-24 win over the Cardinals.

    It was Nabers' best effort of the season, as he began to build some chemistry with new starting QB Jameis Winston, The duo connected on a 25-yard TD in the second quarter, Nabers' first trip to the end zone in 2026, and his 39-yard grab on the Giants' first possession helped set up a field goal. The third-year wideout will take an 18-208-1 line on 26 targets through four games, and renewed optimism in his big-play upside without Jaxson Dart (knee) under center, into a Week 5 road clash with the Commanders.

  • Keon Coleman WR | BUF

    Bills' Keon Coleman: Steps up in Week 4 loss

    Coleman secured six of seven targets for 116 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 29-26 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

    DJ Moore went down in the first half with a shoulder injury, opening up plenty of opportunity in the Bills' air attack. Coleman almost fully maximized his additional targets, recording a team-high yardage figure while finishing second in both receptions and targets. Coleman's first two pro seasons were marked by inconsistency, but the third-year wideout has secured 14 of 16 targets for 217 yards and a touchdown over the first four games and 10 of his catches have resulted in first downs. Coleman's 34-yard touchdown grab Sunday also would have delivered the game-winning points had Drake Maye not mounted a successful drive on the ensuing possession, and Coleman could remain in an elevated role during a Week 5 road matchup against the Rams on Monday night, Oct. 12 if Moore is sidelined for that contest.

  • Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Finds end zone on only catch in Week 4

    Harrison caught one of four targets for 12 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-24 loss to the Giants.

    The struggling third-year WR hit paydirt for the first time this season, connecting with Jacoby Brissett for his only catch of the afternoon in the first quarter to cap the Cardinals' opening drive. Harrison has only five receptions through four games for just 85 yards on a meager 13 targets, and a change of scenery increasingly seems like it might offer his best chance to salvage his career. He'll try to earn a bigger role in the passing game in Week 5 at home against the Lions.
