Bourne, who was on the field for 48 of a possible 63 snaps on offense in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Colts, caught three of his four targets for 11 yards in the contest, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

After having recorded just one target in three consecutive games, Bourne -- who also carried once for one yard -- was more involved in the Patriots' passing game Sunday with DeVante Parker (knee) out, but it didn't amount to much fantasy production. With Parker potentially back in action following the Patriots' bye, Bourne's lineup upside remains limited ahead of the team's next contest against the Jets on Sunday, Nov. 20.

Doubs was diagnosed Monday with a high right-ankle sprain and could be sidelined 4-to-6 weeks, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Doubs used crutches and had a walking boot on his right foot after exiting Sunday's loss to Detroit due to a right ankle injury, and while further tests will reveal an exact timetable for his return, it looks like the rookie fourth-round pick could be a candidate for a stint on IR. The Packers haven't officially commented on Doubs' status, but with fellow rookie Christian Watson (head) also having left Sunday's loss to be evaluated for a concussion, Aaron Rodgers is running out of playmakers in the aerial game. It's a piece of good news that Aaron Jones (ankle) appears to have avoided a serious issue, but with Randall Cobb (ankle) not eligible to come off IR until Week 11, Green Bay's already struggling offense could face further issues Week 10 versus Dallas' stout defense. Samori Toure figures to handle more playing time as long as Doubs is sidelined, while Amari Rodgers also could see more opportunities.

Skowronek failed to secure either of his two targets in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Buccaneers.

The return of Van Jefferson and resurgence of Allen Robinson for the Rams clearly has had an effect on the performance of Skowronek, despite Jefferson failing to secure a single catch in either of the last two contests. Skowronek now is a distant fifth in the pecking order for targets in L.A.'s offense, and his role has shrunk considerably, with just three targets and a single catch for 10 yards during the aforementioned stretch.

Jefferson failed to secure any of his five targets during Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Buccaneers.

Jefferson was looking to break into the stat column for the first time in the 2022 campaign after going without a target in his season debut Week 8. Instead, the 26-year-old had a forgettable performance capped off by an ugly drop in the first quarter for what would've been a gain of 30-plus yards. Jefferson was tied for second on the team with five targets despite being on the field for only 20 offensive snaps, a somewhat encouraging stat to take away from an otherwise abysmal fantasy day.

Powell caught his lone target for four yards, returned two punts for 12 yards and ran back three kickoffs for 63 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Buccaneers.

Powell was a busy man on special teams, recording a season high in return yardage despite a muffed punt (that he recovered) in the first quarter. On the offensive side, Powell's usage remains extremely limited, as he only took the field for five snaps. The slightly expanded role the speedster enjoyed in Weeks 5 and 6 with a combined 35 snaps is seemingly over, and Powell's has reverted to being used primarily as a punt and kick returner heading into a Week 10 contest against the Cardinals.

Moore wasn't targeted in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bills.

Moore played on 45 percent of the team's offensive snaps, and while Zach Wilson threw for only 154 yards, he still directed the ball toward eight different non-Moore targets, including four wide receivers. With only one target since Week 5, the disgruntled wideout will need to string together multiple productive performances following New York's Week 10 bye before he'll be back on the fantasy radar.

Byrd failed to haul in his only target during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Chargers.

Byrd played 29 offensive snaps, which was third most among Atlanta's wideouts behind Drake London (46) and Olamide Zaccheaus (43). However, Byrd, who'd caught four of seven passes for 142 yards and two scores over his past two appearances, was held in check against the Chargers. The veteran has emerged as a big-play wideout for Marcus Mariota recently, but Byrd's production will likely be sporadic moving forward.

Zaccheaus hauled in both of his two targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 20-17 loss against the Chargers.

Zaccheaus has caught multiple passes in eight of nine games this season, totaling 22 receptions for 331 yards and two scores. He's quietly emerged as Marcus Mariota's most reliable pass-catcher, but his overall fantasy potential remains limited due to Atlanta's struggling passing attack. Zaccheaus will look to continue his consistent play against the Panthers on Thursday.

Hodge caught one of two targets for 19 yards during Sunday's 20-17 defeat versus the Chargers.

Hodge has solidified himself as the No. 4 wideout behind Drake London, Olamide Zaccheaus and Damiere Byrd, but Atlanta's passing attack isn't prolific enough to have multiple fantasy-relevant pass catchers. Across nine appearances, the veteran wideout has caught nine of 14 targets for 147 yards, though all of his receiving yards have come in four games (Weeks 1, 2, 5 and 9).

Berrios caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Bills.

Berrios put together an impressive touchdown streak earlier in the season, but sustaining that momentum was always going to be a challenge given his limited opportunities on offense. He remains an integral player on special teams, where Berrios totaled 40 yards on two kickoff returns in the Week 9 win.
