  • Titans' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Four targets in loss

    Westbrook-Ikhine recorded three receptions on four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Ravens.

    Westbrook-Ikhine filled his typical role in the offense, as he now has four or fewer targets in four of Tennessee's six games. He was also held in check from an efficiency perspective, as his longest gain of the day went for just 10 yards. Overall, Westbrook-Ikhine has 25 or fewer receiving yards in all but two contests on the campaign.

  • Panthers' Laviska Shenault: Leaves game with leg injury

    Shenault is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Dolphins due to a fibula injury, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.

    Shenault was carted to the locker room after sustaining the injury in the first half. He had three catches for 15 yards and one carry for two yards before exiting Sunday's contest.

  • Titans' DeAndre Hopkins: Disappears against Ravens

    Hopkins recorded one reception on five targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Ravens.

    The Titans ran only 46 offensive plays, which limited volume for their skill-position players across the board. That was certainly the case for Hopkins, who had his worst statistical performance of the season while matching his low in targets. To make matters worse, Hopkins was seen holding his hand in apparent discomfort late in the game, per Turron Davenport of ESPN.com. Tennessee is heading into its bye week, but his health status will be worth monitoring heading into a Week 8 matchup against the Falcons.

  • Deebo Samuel WR | SF

    49ers' Deebo Samuel: Injures shoulder Sunday

    Samuel was forced out of Sunday's game against the Browns with a shoulder injury.

    Samuel headed to the locker room, according to Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com, after carrying twice for 11 yards and failing to secure his only target prior to exiting. In his absence, running back Christian McCaffrey, fellow wideout Brandon Aiyuk and tight end George Kittle profile as the 49ers' top options on offense versus Cleveland.

  • Zay Flowers WR | BAL

    Ravens' Zay Flowers: Hauls in first career TD

    Flowers caught six of eight targets for 50 yards and a touchdown and added one rushing yard on his only carry in Sunday's 24-16 win over the Titans.

    The rookie wideout hauled in his first career NFL touchdown on a 10-yard toss from Lamar Jackson in the second quarter. Flowers has been the Ravens' most reliable WR in the early going, posting a 35-367-1 line on 48 targets through six games, and if the improvements in the team's passing game efficiency under new offensive coordinator Todd Monken pay off, Sunday's score figures to be the first of many for the Boston College product in 2023. Flowers will look to return to the end zone in Week 7 against a Lions defense that's already given up six receiving TDs to wide receivers -- only the Eagles and Commanders have allowed more through their first five games.

  • Chris Moore WR | BAL

    Titans' Chris Moore: Exits Sunday's game

    Moore was forced out of Sunday's game against the Ravens with a concussion, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

    Prior to his exit from the contest, Moore caught his only target for a six-yard reception. With Moore now sidelined along with the inactive Treylon Burks (knee), DeAndre Hopkins, Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Kyle Philips and Colton Dowell will be the Titans' available receivers for the rest of the day.

  • Elijah Cooks WR | CAR

    Jaguars' Elijah Cooks: Could debut Sunday

    Cooks is officially active for Sunday's game against the Colts.

    The rookie UDFA was a healthy scratch for the first five games of the season, but he's suiting up Sunday and will make his NFL debut if he sees the field. Zay Jones (knee) is inactive, but Cooks isn't likely to see more than a handful of offensive snaps since the rest of the receiving corps is in good health.

  • Chase Claypool WR | BUF

    Dolphins' Chase Claypool: Inactive Sunday

    Claypool (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

    With Claypool's game debut with the Dolphins on hold, Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Cedrick Wilson, Braxton Berrios and Robbie Chosen are slated to handle the team's Week 6 WR duties. Claypool's next chance to suit up will arrive in Week 7 against the Eagles.

  • A.T. Perry WR | PIT

    Saints' A.T. Perry: Inactive again

    Perry (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Despite making the Saints' initial 53-man roster, Perry has yet to see the field this season. The rookie sixth-round pick is currently behind Chris Olave, Michael Thomas, Rashid Shaheed, Keith Kirkwood and Lynn Bowden on the wideout depth chart.

  • Van Jefferson WR | WAS

    Falcons' Van Jefferson: Set to make team debut

    Jefferson is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

    The Falcons acquired Jefferson in a trade with the Rams on Tuesday, but it appears he's grasped the playbook quickly and will make his team debut Sunday. However, fantasy managers should expect the 2020 second-round pick to play a limited role during his first game with Atlanta. Across five games with Los Angeles this season, Jefferson caught eight of 15 targets for 108 yards.
