Mims failed to catch his lone target and rushed once for minus-11 yards in Sunday's 19-17 win over the Packers.

Mims' frustrating start to the 2023 campaign continued Sunday, as the wideout was held without a catch and lost yards on his one carry in the contest. The rookie played 18 of 59 offensive snaps, the lowest of any Denver wide receiver. The Broncos' coaching staff appears firmly committed to bringing the Oklahoma product along slowly this season despite flashing his playmaking ability with several opportunities. Up next for the Broncos is a rematch with the Chiefs. Mims failed to record a target in their first matchup, and the 21-year-old should continue to be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as Denver hosts Kansas City in Week 8.

Woods did not suit up for Monday's practice in what was likely a veteran day, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports.

Woods is nursing a nagging rib injury, so he was given a rest day Monday. If he's sitting out practices later in the week, then it will be time for concern. His first season in Houston has gone well; Woods leads the team with 43 targets and scored his first touchdown as a Texan in the Week 6 win over the Saints.

Jennings finished with five receptions (on nine targets) for 54 yards in Monday's 22-17 loss to Minnesota.

Jennings experienced a stark increase in targets, with Deebo Samuel (shoulder) on the sideline for Monday's loss, unlike last week when the slot receiver's usage remained stagnant following his star teammate's departure. The nine targets set a new career high for Jennings, a third-year wideout, but his five receptions Monday did not. Jennings should stick in the starting lineup after the team already ruled Samuel out for Week 8, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect this gaudy of a target total from the role player against the Bengals on Sunday.

Aiyuk had five receptions (on six targets) for 57 yards in Monday's 22-17 loss to Minnesota,

Aiyuk took over as San Francisco's No. 1 wideout with Deebo Samuel (shoulder) expected to miss multiple weeks to injury. The elevated role did not produce more targets for Aiyuk, who finished with a stat line right around the four receptions and 67 yards he averaged over his previous two contests. The 25-year-old is providing steady production through seven weeks, but a recent lack of touchdowns (none since Week 1) has limited his fantasy value. Aiyuk still is considered a strong play heading into a Week 8 matchup against the Bengals on Sunday.

Olave was arrested Monday for reckless operation of a motor vehicle, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

Olave was reportedly traveling 35 mph over the posted speed limit. He is getting processed and will be released from Kenner City (La.) Jail. The Saints are aware of the situation, but there are no further details at this time.

Addison brought in seven of 10 targets for 123 yards and two touchdowns in the Vikings' 22-17 win over the 49ers on Monday night.

The rookie paced the Vikings in receiving yards on a night where he was forced to exit the game for a time with cramping. Addison scored from 20 and 60 yards out in the first and second quarters, respectively, pushing his season touchdown total to six. The fleet-footed USC product's night also served as his first 100-yard effort as a pro, raising expectations ahead of a Week 8 road matchup against the Packers that will once again see Addison take the field without Justin Jefferson (hamstring, IR).

Green was targeted once but did not catch a pass during Sunday's 38-6 loss to Baltimore.

With Marvin Jones (personal) being ruled out before Kalif Raymond (hamstring) went down with an in-game injury, Green more than doubled his previous career high in offensive snaps -- seeing just as many as Jameson Williams -- while remaining a key figure on special teams. Should Jones and Raymond continue to miss time, Green could continue to take on a heightened role in the offense.

Addison (cramps) has returned to Monday's matchup with the 49ers, Andrew Krammer of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

Addison briefly left the game and headed to the locker room after experiencing cramps. Barring any setbacks, he should take on his usual role at receiver and look to build on an already big game.

Addison is questionable to return to Monday's contest against the 49ers due to cramps, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Addison headed to the locker room near the end of the third quarter after experiencing cramps. Prior to that, he was experiencing a career game with 110 yards and two touchdowns on six receptions. It remains to be seen if he will be able to return Monday.

Addison exited Thursday's game against the 49ers and headed toward the locker room after suffering an apparent foot injury, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Addison was able to walk to the locker room under his own power. The rookie was enjoying a career game before exiting with six receptions for 110 yards and two trips to the end zone. It remains to be seen what his status will be for the remainder of the game.
