Osborn did not have a reception on two targets in Sunday's win at Washington.

Osborn played on 53 of the offense's 66 snaps and went out on 39 routes. He got about the usual playing time, but he had a season low in targets, and it was his first game this season without a catch. The acquisition of T.J. Hockenson (nine receptions) looks to have supplanted Osborn as the third option in the passing offense.

Coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Watson (chest) did not suffer a concussion during Sunday's loss to the Lions, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.

LaFleur added that Watson "took a nice shot in the chest and lost his breath for a minute," but he cleared the concussion protocol. The rookie wideout was shut down for the remainder of the contest for precautionary reasons due to the head injury that he suffered last week, but it doesn't sound like there'll be any lingering effects of the hard hit leading up to the Packers' Week 10 matchup against Dallas. However, Watson's participation during practice may provide further clarity on the situation.

Shenault didn't catch his only target but rushed twice for six yards in Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Bengals.

Shenault was the focus of all three of his offensive snaps, but his limited playing time restricts his value going into Week 10's Thursday night game versus the Falcons.

Smith caught one of two targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 42-21 loss to the Bengals.

Smith played 80 percent of Carolina's offensive snaps. While that involvement helps his fantasy relevancy, Smith has managed more than one catch in only two of his nine appearances thus far, capping his value.

Wilson secured both of his targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 35-32 win over the Bears.

Wilson recorded a catch for the first time since Week 5 while playing 25 percent of offensive snaps Sunday, a sign of growing involvement on offense. Coach Mike McDaniel has alluded to Wilson's role potentially increasing as the season continues, so though he continues to work behind Trent Sherfield for the time being, it could be worth monitoring the 26-year-old in deep fantasy formats.

Sherfield caught all three of his targets for 25 yards during Sunday's 35-32 win over the Bears.

Sherfield continues to show well for Miami as the No. 3 option behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, arguably the league's most dynamic wide receiver tandem. He recorded a key third-down conversion in the first quarter via an 18-yard catch, but while Sherfield's role has become important for the Dolphins, there are still no signs of it translating into fantasy relevance. Miami will prepare to host the Browns in Week 10.

Raymond caught three of three targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 15-9 win over Green Bay.

With Josh Reynolds (back), DJ Chark (ankle) and Quintez Cephus (foot) sidelined, Raymond again logged nearly every offensive snap alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown. While this is Raymond's lowest output since he started becoming a big part of the offense Week 4, Detroit somehow only needed to throw 26 times to win against a Green Bay defense that is stronger against the pass than the run. Raymond should have a good chance to rebound Week 10 against Chicago, especially if Reynolds remains out.

Coach Lovie Smith said Monday that he's hopeful Collins (groin) is able to practice ahead of Week 10, Drew Dougherty of the Texans' official site reports.

Collins has missed back-to-back games due to a groin injury, but he appears to be progressing well and could mix into drills this week. The rookie wideout likely will have to log at least one full practice to be cleared for game action, but his potential return still is an encouraging sign, even if it's in a limited fashion.

Agholor was on the field for 21 of a possible 63 snaps on offense in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Colts, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Agholor, who wasn't targeted in the contest, was out-snapped Sunday by Jakobi Meyers (51), Kendrick Bourne (48) and Tyquan Thornton (42). With just one catch in his last four games, Agholor doesn't currently merit fantasy lineup consideration.

Thornton logged 42 of a possible 63 snaps on offense in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Colts en route to catching one of his four targets for five yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Since scoring two TDs in Week 6 against the Browns, Thornton has caught one pass in each of his last three games. The 2022 second-rounder is off the fantasy radar for now, with Jakobi Meyers being the only New England wide receiver producing consistently enough to merit weekly lineup consideration.
