  • Michael Gallup WR | WAS

    Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Finally finds end zone Sunday

    Gallup caught both his targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 49-17 rout of the Giants.

    The veteran wideout was on the other end of a 41-yard TD toss from Dak Prescott in the third quarter, which was the third of four touchdown passes on the day for the QB. The score was Gallup's first of the season, while the yardage total was his second highest of 2023, and he hasn't caught more than three passes in a game since Week 4. Despite Prescott's recent eruption -- he's thrown for over 1,000 yards over the last three contests -- Gallup still hasn't been prominently featured in the game plan, and he seems to be no better than Dallas' No. 4 option in the passing attack behind wide receiversCeeDee Lamb and Brandin Cooks and tight end Jake Ferguson.

  • Texans' John Metchie: Two grabs in Week 10

    Metchie caught both his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over Cincinnati.

    Metchie was active after getting knocked out of last week's win over Tampa Bay with injured ribs. Houston's depth wideouts -- Metchie and Xavier Hutchinson -- are getting increased reps while injuries have hit the position, but that may change in Week 11 if Nico Collins (calf) is ready to return. Metchie has caught just nine of 10 targets for 111 yards through eight games this season.

  • Texans' Xavier Hutchinson: Keeps running

    Hutchinson did not catch his lone target and had one carry for 17 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Bengals in Week 10.

    Hutchinson has received an uptick in usage while injuries have hit Houston's wide receivers the last few weeks, but he's made a bigger name for himself as a runner. For the second consecutive week, Hutchinson was used as a rusher on the opponent's side of the field and lugged the ball inside the 20-yard line. Each drive ended in a Houston touchdown. As the Texans operate without lead back Dameon Pierce, offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik has involved wideouts in the running attack, including Hutchinson and Tank Dell. Hutchinson has four carries for 44 yards over the last four games.

  • Robert Woods WR | PIT

    Texans' Robert Woods: Three targets in return

    Woods caught one of three targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over Cincinnati.

    Woods returned to action after missing two games with a foot injury. Through the first five weeks of the season the veteran wideout was a prominent option for rookie QB C.J. Stroud, averaging eight targets per game, but Tank Dell (14 targets, 56 yards) has since emerged as a short threat and Noah Brown (eight, 172) as a deep-ball target. The pecking order at wide receiver could be adjusted further at Woods' expense in Week 11 against the Cardinals if Nico Collins (calf) is ready to play.

  • Jake Bobo WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Jake Bobo: Registers two receptions

    Bobo caught two passes (two targets) for 13 yards in Sunday's 29-26 win over the Commanders.

    The undrafted rookie logged 22 offensive snaps, ranking fourth among Seahawks receivers but still far behind fellow rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba (44). As long as Smith-Njigba, DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett are upright, Bobo won't have much fantasy appeal.

  • James Proche WR | TEN

    Browns' James Proche: One target in win

    Proche did not catch his lone target and returned one punt for zero yards in Sunday's 33-31 win over Baltimore.

    He was in the lineup for a second straight week as the Browns were without Marquise Goodwin (concussion) and David Bell (knee), but Proche was on the field for just three offensive snaps. Sunday's target was his first of the season.

  • Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Reels in four passes

    Smith-Njigba caught four of five targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 29-26 win over the Commanders.

    After a slow start to the season, Smith-Njigba has been consistent over the past five weeks, averaging 52.6 receiving yards per game and totaling two touchdowns. The rookie first-round pick still hasn't put forth a true breakout performance -- 63 yards is his season high -- but it's encouraging that he's a steady part of the offense. The Seahawks will face the Rams' young secondary in Week 11, so Smith-Njigba will have a favorable matchup even if he's still the No. 3 receiving option behind DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett.

  • Cedric Tillman WR | CLE

    Browns' Cedric Tillman: Three targets in win

    Tillman did not catch any of his three targets in Sunday's 33-31 win over the Ravens.

    For a second consecutive week, the rookie was a top-three wideout in terms of snaps (66, 85 percent), as Marquise Goodwin (concussion) and David Bell (knee) were unavailable. Tillman's played a combined 120 snaps the last two games but has just four targets and one catch to show for it.

  • Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC

    Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Down game on SNF

    Meyers was held to two catches on as many targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 16-12 win over the Jets.

    Meyers finished with two or fewer receptions for the third consecutive week following his blazing start to the season with Las Vegas. He was able to negate last week's dip in usage by scoring the first rushing touchdown of his career against the Giants, but there were no unexpected bonuses this time around. Meyers' recent slump roughly coincides with starter Jimmy Garoppolo getting hurt and eventually demoted to backup, as the two showed great chemistry earlier in the year after joining forces in Las Vegas this past offseason. That's not to say that Meyers can't develop a similar rapport with Aidan O'Connell over time, but until that happens, the wideout's fantasy value will continue taking hits until he shows more signs of life. That next opportunity will come against the Dolphins in Week 11.

  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Raiders' Davante Adams: Commands 13 targets on SNF

    Adams converted 13 targets into six receptions for 86 yards in Sunday's 16-12 win over the Jets.

    Adams finally returned to form after tallying just five receptions for 45 yards over his previous two starts. The superstar wideout led Las Vegas in every receiving category minus touchdowns, as the team's only TD went to rookie tight end Michael Mayer, who caught the only offensive touchdown from either side in the contest. Las Vegas' quarterback situation isn't ideal for a receiver of Adams' talent level, but he should continue receiving healthy target totals while developing chemistry with rookie starter Aidan O'Connell in the second half of the season. The starting QB/WR duo could find themselves busy if the Raiders hope to outscore Miami's high-flying offense next Sunday.
