Odunze secured three of six targets for 44 yards in the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Monday night.

Odunze was relegated to a complementary role in the 20-point victory, finishing fourth in receptions and third in both receiving yards and targets for the Bears on the night. While Odunze entered the season as the presumptive No. 1 receiver, veteran offseason addition Kalif Raymond, who had familiarity with head coach Ben Johnson's scheme from their mutual time with the Lions, has enjoyed an expanded role over the first three games while gathering in an impressive 19 of 21 targets. Conversely, Odunze is averaging a career-best 17.4 yards per reception but has a modest eight catches and no touchdowns through three games, numbers he'll look to significantly boost during a Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.

Burden secured seven of 11 targets for 61 yards and a touchdown while rushing once for seven yards in the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Monday night.

The second-year wideout led the Bears in receptions and targets in the impressive win with totals that also qualified as season highs, while checking in second only to Kalif Raymond in receiving yards. Burden also scored his first touchdown of the season on a nifty shovel pass that he took eight yards to the house while breaking multiple tackles near the goal line to cap off Chicago's opening possession. Burden's ability to click with fill-in signal-caller Case Keenum bodes well for the receiver's fantasy prospects, considering Caleb Williams (hamstring) is still projected to miss several more games. Burden will look to carry over the momentum into a Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.

Raymond caught 6-of-7 targets for 90 yards and a touchdown as well as two punt returns for 15 yards in the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Monday.

Despite having three quarterbacks throwing him the ball in as many weeks, Raymond continues to be a top option for the Bears' receiving offense. The wide receiver was second in targets Monday night, second only to Luther Burden (11), who did not manage to exceed Raymond in yards. The returner's additional value on special teams just further adds to his offensive allure as the season continues.

Smith secured six of eight targets for 65 yards in the Eagles' 27-7 loss to the Bears on Monday night.

Smith led the Eagles across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets on a night when Jalen Hurts passed for just 153 yards. All three of the speedy wideout's totals also qualified as his second highest of the first three games of the season. Smith appears to be adjusting well to new coordinator Sean Mannion's offense despite the Eagles' collective performance on that side of the ball leaving plenty to be desired, and he'll take a robust 19-235-1 line on 27 targets into a Week 4 home showdown against the Rams on Sunday.

Berrios reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Berrios played five offensive snaps and seven special-teams snaps in the contest, returning two punts for 12 yards and two kicks for 57 yards. The wide receiver has been the primary returner for the Giants through the first three games of the 2026 regular season, but is now out of active roster elevations. If the team wants Berrios to play returner in Sunday's matchup with the Cardinals, they will need to sign the 30-year-old to the active roster.

Shepard reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

In his first action of the season, Shepard played 30 of 66 offensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Lions, though he was targeted just one time. With Adonai Mitchell (finger) battling an injury, Shepard could again be elevated ahead of next Sunday's game against the Bears. He has no fantasy appeal.

Moreno-Cooper reverted to New Orleans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction report.

Moreno-Cooper was elevated to provide additional depth at receiver as Barion Brown (hamstring) was inactive. Moreno-Cooper ended up playing exclusively on special teams and returned one kick for 22 yards. The 25-year-old could be elevated again for the Week 4 matchup versus the Falcons if Brown remains sidelined.

Austin reverted to the Saints' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Austin played 10 of 74 offensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Raiders but didn't draw a target in the passing game. He also logged eight snaps on special teams. If Barion Brown (hamstring) needs to miss more time, Austin could be elevated again for Week 4.

Tucker caught all four of his targets for 43 yards during Sunday's 35-27 win over New Orleans.

Tucker finished second the team in targets, but he was far behind tight end Brock Bowers (13). The wide receiver was on the field for 40 of the team's 70 offensive snaps, and he was able to make it three straight games with at least two receptions to open the season. Tucker has now caught 11 of 15 targets for 189 yards and a touchdown to this point in 2026.

Westbrook-Ikhine reverted to Indianapolis' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Westbrook-Ikhine played one snap on offense and 15 on special teams but didn't have any output in the box score. The 29-year-old is eligible to be elevated two more times this season.
