Renfrow was not targeted in the Raiders' 17-16 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

The veteran receiver was firmly overshadowed by fellow wideouts Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers (concussion) in the season opener. Renfrow logged just 13 offensive snaps, and even No. 4 WR DeAndre Carter caught a pass on the Raiders' final drive. However, Meyers left the contest late with a head injury, so he'll be subject to the league's concussion protocols ahead of a Week 2 matchup in Buffalo. If Meyers is unable to go, Renfrow could handle a majority of the slot opportunities.

Carter caught his lone target for five yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Broncos.

Carter's only catch in the season opener came on the Raiders' final drive of the contest, and he ultimately played just 10 snaps on offense. Fellow receivers Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers combined for 147 yards and two touchdowns on 15 receptions, but the latter sustained a head injury and will need to clear the NFL's concussion protocol in order to suit up against the Bills in Week 2. If Meyers remains sidelined, Carter and Hunter Renfrow could see their roles expand.

Thompson wasn't targeted in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Rams.

Thompson operated as the No. 5 wideout, as rookie Jake Bobo recorded 11 offensive snaps while Thompson played just two. Barring a slew of injuries, Thompson won't have any fantasy value.

Bobo wasn't targeted in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Rams.

Bobo was a preseason sensation, but he's pegged as the No. 4 wide receiver in the regular season. The 25-year-old rookie played 11 offensive snaps. As long as DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett and Jaxon Smith-Njigba are healthy, Bobo's playing time will be limited.

Hutchinson caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 25-9 loss to Baltimore in Week 1.

Hutchinson operated as the fifth wideout, as John Metchie (hamstring) was inactive. Hutchinson, selected in sixth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, played just seven snaps, well behind Robert Woods (58), Nico Collins (54), Noah Brown (52) and fellow rookie Tank Dell (37).

Toure was targeted three times and caught two passes for 18 yards in Sunday's 38-20 victory over the Bears.

Toure tallied only one target and one reception over the final eight games of the 2022 season, but he topped both numbers in Week 1 of 2023 despite finishing fifth among Packers wideouts in offensive snaps. Although Toure posted better numbers than the two rookie receivers who earned a spot on Green Bay's roster, his playing time and the fact another wideout ahead of him on the depth chart -- Christian Watson (hamstring) -- did not play Sunday suggest his opportunities to make an impact will be limited.

Heath did not catch his lone target in Sunday's 38-20 victory over the Bears.

Heath garnered a start in his first NFL appearance, but he made only a minor mark in the box score and wound up tied for third among Packers wideouts with 29 offensive snaps. The undrafted rookie steadily moved up the depth chart after joining Green Bay in late April, but he was unable to make a Week 1 impact even with Christian Watson (hamstring) out.

Brown caught three of four targets for 20 yards and lost one yard on his only carry in Sunday's 25-9 loss to the Ravens in Week 1.

He was on the field for 52 offensive snaps, comparable to Robert Woods (58) and Nico Collins (54), although they both saw double-digit targets. One of Brown's four targets and his lone rushing attempt came in the red zone though, which is encouraging for his fantasy potential. As the Ravens were bottling up Houston's ground game, quarterback C.J. Stroud had to throw it 44 times, which created opportunities for all his receivers.

Ezukanma had two carries for 17 yards during Sunday's 36-34 win over the Chargers. He was not targeted.

Ezukanma was not involved in the receiving game despite Miami playing from behind for the entirety of Sunday's win, but he did look explosive on two carries. It's encouraging to see Ezukanma already log more offensive touches than he did as a rookie last year, but he remains clearly behind Braxton Berrios and River Cracraft on the wide receiver depth chart.

Cracraft secured three of five targets for 40 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 36-34 win over the Chargers.

Cracraft and fellow depth wideout Braxton Berrios were both relatively productive behind top options Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, though it was surprising to see TE Durham Smythe also command seven targets, good for second on the team. The Dolphins may not have to air it out as much to overcome a deficit in Week 2 versus the Patriots, but Cracraft and Berrios could be capable emergency streaming options in deeper fantasy formats.
