Boutte is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Dolphins.

A hamstring issue limited Boutte in practice earlier this week, but he didn't have an injury designation for Sunday's contest. With Boutte the odd man out in Week 2, the Patriots will proceed with a WR corps that includes JuJu Smith-Schuster, DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne, Demario Douglas and Jalen Reagor.

Parker (knee) is listed as active for Sunday night's game against the Dolphins.

After being a limited participant in practice last week, Parker was inactive for the Patriots' season-opening loss to the Eagles. Following limited sessions Wednesday through Friday this time around, Parker is back in action Sunday and figures to step into a key role in a New England WR corps that also features JuJu Smith-Schuster and Kendrick Bourne, with Demario Douglas also a candidate to mix in along with practice squad elevation Jalen Reagor.

Agholor caught five of six targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Bengals.

Agholor took on a larger role after Odell Beckham (ankle) exited in the first half. After being held without a reception in his Baltimore debut, Agholor led the team in receiving yards in Week 2. His biggest catch was a 17-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. Agholor's a capable player with three 700-yard seasons under his belt, but carving out a consistent role won't be easy in a passing game that also includes Beckham, 2023 first-round pick Zay Flowers, 2021 first-round pick Rashod Bateman and tight end Mark Andrews.

Downs brought in four of five targets for 37 yards in the Colts' 31-20 win over the Texans on Sunday.

Downs again served as the No. 3 receiver, but as was the case in his NFL debut Week 1, he was more productive than No. 2 wideout Alec Pierce (2-28). Downs has displayed solid rapport with both Anthony Richardson (concussion) and Gardner Minshew, so he'll remain an interesting deep-league option for a Week 3 road battle against the Ravens.

Pierce secured both targets for 28 yards in the Colts' 31-20 win over the Texans on Sunday.

Pierce's disappointing start to the new campaign continued Sunday, as he was able to only marginally improve on a one-catch, five-yard Week 1 tally. The 2022 second-round pick put together a solid rookie season (41-593-2 across 16 games) that raised expectations coming into the new season, but he's been nothing more than a secondary option in the air attack thus far and has seen rookie Josh Downs outperform him as the No. 3 wideout. Pierce's next opportunity to jump start his season comes in a Week 3 road matchup versus the Ravens.

Pittman secured eight of 12 targets for 56 yards in the Colts' 31-20 win over the Texans on Sunday. He also committed a fumble that was recovered by Indianapolis.

Pittman led the Colts in receptions and receiving yards on a day when Anthony Richardson (concussion) and Gardner Minshew spread the ball around to eight different targets. Pittman has been as busy as expected over the first two games, recording 16 receptions for 153 yards and a touchdown on 23 targets. He'll look to keep up his strong start with either Richardson or Minshew under center in a Week 3 road matchup against the Ravens.

Woods secured six of nine targets for 74 yards in the Texans' 31-20 loss to the Colts on Sunday.

The veteran wideout served as a security blanket for rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud, finishing tied for second in targets while sharing the team lead in receptions. Woods has quickly amassed a 12-131 line through two games, and he'll again be a solid option in all formats during a Week 3 road matchup against the Jaguars during which the Texans could well be down by a sizable margin in the second half.

Moore caught three of four targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-9 win over Jacksonville.

Moore caught a nine-yard touchdown in the final minute of the first half. It was the first regular-season receiving touchdown for the 2022 second-round draft pick, who also caught one in the Super Bowl against the Eagles. Most of Moore's yardage came on Kansas City's last pass of the game, as he got free for a 54-yard gain to convert a crucial third down. Moore will look to build on this performance in Week 3 against the Bears.

Toney caught all five of his targets for 35 yards and rushed once for three yards in Sunday's 17-9 win over Jacksonville.

Toney played a clean game after an error-filled Week 1 performance, tying Justin Watson for second on the team in targets behind Travis Kelce's nine. Patrick Mahomes completed multiple passes to nine different targets while topping 300 passing yards. Toney has established a decent touch floor in Kansas City's balanced passing attack, but he hasn't particularly stood out in a receiving corps that also includes Watson, Skyy Moore, Rashee Rice and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. He'll look to make more of his opportunities in Week 3 against the Bears.

Godwin secured five of eight targets for 58 yards in the Buccaneers' 27-17 win over the Bears on Sunday.

Godwin put together a second straight solid performance to open the campaign, although he was again outpaced statistically by fellow wideout Mike Evans. Godwin finished a distant second to his teammate in yardage, although 70 of Evans' 171 came on a catch-and-run play. Meanwhile, the two players co-led the Buccaneers in targets, which should offer some encouragement to Godwin's fantasy managers. He'll look to make a bigger mark, albeit in a tough matchup, versus the Eagles in a Week 3 home matchup Monday night, Sept. 25.
