  • Panthers' Laviska Shenault: Handful of touches

    Shenault rushed five times for 27 yards in Sunday's 42-24 loss to the Lions.

    Shenault posted season highs in touches and scrimmage yards as the Panthers hoped to generate offense through his versatile skill set. Although his average of 5.4 yards per carry was good, Shenault's upside remains limited while averaging under 15 offensive snaps per game this season.

  • Panthers' Terrace Marshall: Suddenly no snaps

    Marshall was active but did not play a single snap in Sunday's 42-24 loss to the Lions.

    Marshall was coming off a career-best nine catches and 10 targets in Week 4, but with rookie Jonathan Mingo returning to the lineup, Marshall didn't hear his number called once. That swing came despite the Panthers trailing by a sizeable amount and ultimately passing 41 times. After averaging over 43 offensive snaps through Carolina's first four games, it'd be surprising if the healthy Marshall isn't reincorporated in Week 6 versus the Dolphins, but Sunday's goose egg showed anything can happen.

  • Shaquan Davis WR | PIT

    Shaquan Davis: Placed on injured list

    Davis (undisclosed) was placed on the Saints' practice squad injured list Monday, John Sigler of USA Today reports.

    Davis is dealing with an undisclosed injury and it's therefore hard to predict how long he'll be unavailable, but he's ineligible to return until Nov. 12. Once healthy, the wide receiver will look to earn his first elevation to the Saints' active roster this season.

  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Raiders' Davante Adams: Suits up Monday

    Adams (shoulder) is listed as active for Monday night's game against the Packers.

    After working through a shoulder injury during a Week 4 loss to the Chargers in which he caught eight of his 13 targets for 75 yards, Adams missed practice this past Thursday and Friday before returning to a limited session Saturday and drawing an official designation of questionable for Monday's contest. With his active status versus Green Bay confirmed, Adams should remain a key receiving target for QB Jimmy Garoppolo while facing the team that he played for between 2014 and 2021. In four games to date this season, Adams has racked up a fantasy-friendly 33 catches (on 50 targets) for 397 yards and three TDs.

  • Lions' Jameson Williams: Small role in debut

    Williams caught two of three targets for two yards during Sunday's 42-24 win over Carolina.

    Williams' highly-anticipated 2023 debut was more or less of a dud from a production standpoint. Despite the absences of Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) and Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring), Williams tied for fourth among Lions wide receivers in snaps and didn't do much with the opportunities he was given. Meanwhile, Josh Reynolds, Kalif Raymond and Sam LaPorta did most of the heavy lifting for a Detroit passing game that efficiently accumulated 236 yards. Even if St. Brown remains sidelined Week 6 at Tampa Bay, Williams may not be needed for the kind of volume that would warrant consideration for fantasy lineups.

  • Nelson Agholor WR | BAL

    Ravens' Nelson Agholor: New season high in yardage

    Agholor caught four of five targets for 64 yards Sunday against the Steelers.

    After being held to one catch for four yards against the Browns in Week 4, Agholor rebounded with one of his best games of the season. It wasn't perfect, though, as a potential touchdown pass slipped through his fingers in the third quarter that could have put Baltimore up by two possessions. Still, Agholor played the second-most snaps among Ravens receivers even with Rashod Bateman and Odell Beckham returning from injury. The Ravens take on the Titans in London in Week 6.

  • Quez Watkins WR | PHI

    Eagles' Quez Watkins: Returns with two catches

    Watkins returned from a hamstring injury for Sunday's 23-14 win against the Rams, catching two of three targets for just four yards.

    Watkins returned from a two-game absence to log a season-high in offensive snaps (51), but he remained a minor part of the game plan. He has four catches for 21 yards in his three games this season, and it will likely take an injury to A.J. Brown or DeVonta Smith for him to start posting fantasy-relevant numbers.

  • Ravens' Odell Beckham: Two catches in return

    Beckham caught two of four targets for 13 yards in Sunday's loss to the Steelers.

    The veteran returned from a two-game absence and logged 35 snaps, which ranked third among Baltimore receivers on Sunday. Beckham was unable to convert his snaps into much receiving output, however, and his long reception went for just seven yards. Baltimore's offense continues to be uneven in the passing game and now has to travel across the pond to face the Titans in London in Week 6. Beckham appears to have a safe role in the offense when healthy, but it is up to him to start producing.

  • Eagles' Olamide Zaccheaus: Not targeted in Week 5

    Zaccheaus was on the field for just nine offensive snaps in Sunday's 23-14 win over the Rams and was not targeted a single time.

    Quez Watkins returned from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury, pushing Zaccheaus down to the fourth wide receiver on the depth chart. With Watkins unavailable, Zaccheaus averaged 1.5 catches for 34.5 yards and 0.5 touchdowns while seeing the field for an average of 50 offensive snaps per outing. In the three games Watkins has participated in, Zaccheaus hasn't been targeted once and has seen the field for an average of 17 offensive snaps per week.

  • Rashod Bateman WR | BAL

    Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Costly drop in return

    Bateman caught one of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's loss to the Steelers.

    Bateman was inefficient in his return from a hamstring injury and had a costly drop in the end zone. He finished the day with one reception on 27 snaps, which ranked fourth among Ravens receivers Sunday. Bateman has eight catches for 67 yards on 12 targets through four games with uninspiring marks in his peripheral numbers such as yards per route run and yards after the catch. Baltimore travels to London to face the Titans in Week 6.
