A.J. Brown WR | NE
Eagles' A.J. Brown: Sees record yardage streak end
Brown caught seven of nine targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Cowboys.
While Brown scored his fourth TD in the last three games on a four-yard toss from Jalen Hurts late in the third quarter, the wideout's production still felt a little disappointing after he'd set an NFL record by topping 125 receiving yards in six straight contests. Brown heads into the Eagles' bye on pace for nearly 1,900 yards on the season, keeping him within striking distance of Calvin Johnson's all-time record of 1,964, but he'll face a tough matchup on the other side of the break in a Week 11 Super Bowl rematch with Kansas City.

Jalen Tolbert WR | MIA
Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Catches first career TD
Tolbert caught three of five targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Eagles.
The second-year wideout hauled in his first career TD in the fourth quarter as the Cowboys tried to rally from a 28-17 deficit, getting free in the end zone for a seven-yard strike as Dak Prescott escaped the pocket and bought some time. Tolbert hadn't caught a single pass in the three prior games, so his role in the offense is far from consistent, but he appears to be earning some trust from his QB. In addition, veterans Michael Gallup and Brandin Cooks, the two receivers immediately ahead of him on the depth chart, haven't exactly been reliable themselves. Tolbert will look to build on Sunday's performance in Week 10 against the Giants.

Darius Slayton WR | NYG
Giants' Darius Slayton: Leads team in receiving Sunday
Slayton hauled in four of seven targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 30-6 loss to Las Vegas.
Slayton finished as the Giants' leading receiver and the only position player other than star tailback Saquon Barkley to crack 50 yards Sunday. A good portion of that production came while playing with Tommy DeVito, who took over at QB for starter Daniel Jones after the latter left with a potential major knee injury on the first play of the second quarter. The UDFA quarterback wound up targeting Slayton five times after taking over, more than any other receiver over the three quarters of action DeVito was active for. That said, Slayton remains a risky fantasy play while New York attempts to address its dire QB situation against Dallas next Sunday.

CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL
Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Career-best performance in Week 9
Lamb caught 11 of 16 targets for 191 yards in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the Eagles.
While he couldn't get into the end zone, Lamb still had a massive day and set a new career high in yardage for a single game. The fourth-year wideout has topped 100 yards in three straight contests as the Dallas passing game has roared to life, posting a 30-466-2 line on 37 targets over that stretch, but Lamb doesn't figure to be as busy in Week 10 against a Giants team that the Cowboys routed 40-0 in their first meeting this season.

DJ Moore WR | BUF
Bears' DJ Moore: Another modest performance
Moore secured three of five targets for 55 yards in the Bears' 24-17 loss to the Saints on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
It was a ragged day all the way around for the normally reliable receiver, who finished behind both Cole Kmet and Darnell Mooney in receptions while also losing a fumble in Bears territory early in the third quarter that led to a Saints field goal. Moore has now been under the 100-yard mark in four consecutive contests after a stellar two-game stretch in Weeks 4 and 5, but he could have Justin Fields (thumb) back under center in a Week 10 home matchup against the Panthers on Thursday night.

DJ Chark WR | ATL
Panthers' DJ Chark: Salvages day with TD
Chark caught two of three targets for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Colts.
The 27-year-old wideout caught three or fewer passes for the fifth straight game and set a new season low in receiving yards as he continues to be a secondary piece of the Panthers' passing attack, but Chark managed to carve out a little fantasy value by catching his third TD of the season on a five-yard toss from Bryce Young in the third quarter. Chark's production might improve if veteran Andy Dalton took the reins of the offense -- he had his best game of the season in Week 3, delivering a 4-86-1 line on 11 targets from Dalton while Young was out with an ankle injury -- but a switch at QB isn't likely to happen on a short week as the Panthers get ready for a Thursday night clash with the Bears in Week 10.

Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC
Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Scores first rushing TD of career
Meyers caught two of five targets for 38 yards while scoring a 17-yard rushing touchdown on his only carry in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Giants.
It was the first rushing touchdown of Meyers' career and also his longest carry on nine career attempts. The versatile wideout has now thrown, ran and caught a touchdown over the course of his five years in the league. The 27-year-old's six combined scores through eight games with Las Vegas already matches the high he set last season with New England when he had six scores over 14 games. The next stop for Meyers' breakout fantasy campaign will come in a home matchup against the Jets on Sunday Night Football in Week 10.

Adam Thielen WR | PIT
Panthers' Adam Thielen: Five grabs in loss to Colts
Thielen caught five of six targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Colts.
The veteran wideout posted his worst numbers since his Week 1 debut with the Panthers, as Thielen hadn't recorded fewer than seven catches, eight targets or 54 yards since then until Sunday's weak effort. Carolina coach Frank Reich appears committed to sticking with rookie Bryce Young under center, but it might be better for Thielen's production if veteran Andy Dalton took the reins of the offense. However, a switch isn't likely to happen on a short week as the Panthers get ready for a Thursday night clash with the Bears in Week 10.

Davante Adams WR | LAR
Raiders' Davante Adams: Paltry results with new QB
Adams had four receptions on seven targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Giants.
Adams' recent woes in fantasy continued Sunday with another pedestrian receiving line, this time with new starting quarterback Aidan O'Connell under center. The rookie signal-caller performed adequately as the Raiders picked up the win in interim head coach Antonio Pierce's first game taking over for Josh McDaniels. Adams was left out of the party despite leading the team in targets, having to deal with double and even triple teams on occasion Sunday. The star receiver is averaging just 3.6 receptions and 35.2 receiving yards with no touchdowns over his last five appearances. Adams' cold stretch has stagnated his season line at 51-573-3 following a hot start to the fantasy campaign. The superstar's combination of talent and targets should keep him in fantasy starting lineups for next Sunday's matchup against the Jets.

Darnell Mooney WR | NYG
Bears' Darnell Mooney: Season-best effort in loss
Mooney brought in five of six targets for 82 yards in the Bears' 24-17 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Mooney got off to a fast start with a 13-yard reception on the Bears' first play from scrimmage and a game-high 38-yard grab on the last play of the opening period. The fourth-year speedster went on to set the pace in receiving yards for Chicago on the afternoon with a figure that also qualified as a season high. Mooney has a 12-203 line over his last four games after a four-game stretch during which he was blanked on three occasions, and he could have Justin Fields (thumb) back as his quarterback in a Week 10 home matchup against the Panthers on Thursday night.
