Beckham exited Sunday's game against the Cardinals after sustaining a stomach contusion.

Before leaving the contest, Beckham did not record a catch on four targets. While he's sidelined, Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman, Nelson Agholor and Devin Duvernay are the Ravens' available WRs in Week 8.

Pittman brought in eight of 13 targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 38-27 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Pittman was in the familiar position of leading the Colts in receptions and targets, although his five yards per catch qualified as a season-low figure. Pittman also recorded his second touchdown in as many games when he found the end zone from 10 yards out in the first quarter, and he's now logged double-digit targets on five occasions thus far. Pittman should remain similarly busy in a Week 9 road battle against the Panthers.

Hopkins caught four passes on six targets for 128 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 28-23 win over the Falcons.

Hopkins tied for the team lead with six targets, and he was extremely efficient with his opportunity. Three of his four receptions went for touchdowns, highlighted by long scores of 61 and 47 yards. The performance marked Hopkins' second 100-yard effort of the season, both of which have come in his last three games. Will Levis led the Titans' most explosive offensive performance of the season, and Hopkins could continue to benefit with him under center.

Collins caught four of six targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 15-13 loss to the Panthers.

Rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud had his worst performance in the NFL, and as a result Collins posted poor numbers despite leading the Texans in catches and targets. The third-year wideout hasn't seen more than six targets in three straight games as the Houston passing attack cools down, but Collins could be more productive in Week 9 against a Buccaneers secondary that came into Sunday having given up the third-most receiving yards in the league to WRs.

Robinson didn't catch his only target and rushed twice for 17 yards in Sunday's 13-10 overtime loss to the Jets.

The Giants completed just six passes all game as Tyrod Taylor (ribs) exited in the second quarter. Rookie Tommy DeVito didn't complete a pass beyond the line of scrimmage, so Robinson and the rest of Big Blue's pass catchers would benefit greatly if either Taylor or Daniel Jones (neck) were to return in Week 9 against the Raiders.

Smith brought in all seven targets for 99 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 38-31 win over the Commanders on Sunday.

Smith saw position mate A.J. Brown put together another standout performance that included a record sixth straight game with 125-plus receiving yards, but the former wasn't too far behind in his Week 8 numbers. Smith finished second in receptions, receiving yards and targets to Brown on the afternoon, and he hit the Commanders for another long touchdown at FedEx Field when he got free down the left side for a 38-yard scoring grab just before the halfway point of the fourth quarter. Smith's score snapped a five-game touchdown drought for the talented third-year wideout, who'll next face an aggressive Cowboys defense in a Week 9 home showdown.

Thomas logged four receptions (on seven targets) for 68 yards during Sunday's 38-27 victory versus Indianapolis.

Thomas continued to serve as a consistent short-to-intermediate pass catcher during this season-best outing for the Saints' offense. The 30-year-old wideout didn't seem to be slowed down after he popped up on the injury report late with an illness Saturday. He even logged his longest reception of the season when he caught a 31-yard pass deep down the middle in the first quarter. This rather moderate-length reception speaks to Thomas' lack of involvement in the deep passing game, and he's now logged over 15.0 yards per reception in just two of eight games this season. His production should remain consistent, though capped, while he served as the Saints' No. 2 wideout behind Chris Olave moving forward.

McLaurin brought in five of 12 targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in the Commanders' 38-31 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

The normally reliable receiver was far from his most efficient and was uncharacteristically guilty of a couple of late drops, but McLaurin still delivered a solid fantasy day thanks in large part to his 26-yard touchdown grab to open the scoring. The score was only McLaurin's second of the season and first since Week 2, but his target tally was a new high-water mark in 2023 and his third of the double-digit variety this season. McLaurin next takes aim at a vulnerable Patriots secondary in a Week 9 road interconference matchup.

Ridley caught six of 10 targets for 83 yards in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Steelers.

Ridley tied Evan Engram for the team lead in targets while finishing five yards shy of Engram's team-leading total. In his three best games -- including this one -- Ridley has combined for 21 catches, 306 yards and one touchdown on 29 targets, but he has just 12 catches for 145 yards and one touchdown on 29 targets across five other games. He'll remain a low-floor, high-ceiling option in Week 10 against the 49ers following Jacksonville's Week 9 bye.

Dotson brought in eight of 10 targets for 108 yards and one touchdown in the Commanders' 38-31 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Dotson led the Commanders in receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon with totals that also qualified as season highs. Dotson also recorded his second touchdown grab of the season for good measure, finding the end zone from 21 yards out early in the second quarter. The speedy second-year man carries an impressive 13-151-1 line over his last two games into a Week 9 road matchup against an inconsistent Patriots secondary that gave up a pair of 100-yard performances to the Dolphins' Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle on Sunday.
