Lamb recorded five receptions on seven targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 49-29 win over the Bears.

Lamb narrowly beat out Dalton Schultz to lead Dallas in receiving yards, and he now has 13 targets combined in the two games since Dak Prescott has returned. Lamb's performance was highlighted by receptions of 22 and 21 yards -- the latter of which went for his third touchdown of the season. He has still yet to surpass the century mark in a game this season, but Lamb has at least 70 yards in five of eight contests.

Moore caught six of 11 targets for 152 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-34 overtime loss to the Falcons. He added one rushing attempt for three yards.

Moore was a non-factor in the first half as the entire Carolina passing game struggled, but he stepped up in the second half and finished as the team leader in targets, catches and receiving yards. His 62-yard touchdown with 12 seconds left tied the game with the PAT pending, but the Panthers missed that kick and another in overtime to fall in heartbreaking fashion. Moore has posted a new season high for receiving yards in each of the past two games, and he'll look to build on his momentum in Week 9 against the Bengals.

Jefferson brought in six of eight targets for 98 yards in the Vikings' 34-26 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

Jefferson co-led the Vikings in receptions and paced the team in both yardage and targets, but he had an almost quiet performance by his lofty standards against a Cardinals defense that's proven adept at slowing down top receivers all season. The third-year star saw his three-game streak of 100-yard performances snapped in the process, albeit barely, but he'll have a solid opportunity to get back over the century mark against a Commanders defense that's given up plenty of chunk plays through the air this season.

Coach Kevin O'Connell said that Thielen suffered a bruised knee during Sunday's 34-26 win against the Cardinals, but the wide receiver is "OK," Chris Tomasson of the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Thielen was shaken up after his third catch of the game early in the second quarter, but after a visit to the sideline tent, he was able to return and eventually finished with six receptions (on seven targets) for 67 yards, his second-highest yardage total of the campaign. With an injury now in tow, his status will be monitored this week in advance of next Sunday's contest at Washington.

Hopkins secured 12 of 13 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown in the Cardinals' 34-26 loss to the Vikings on Sunday.

Hopkins easily paced the Cardinals in receptions, receiving yards and targets, one-upping his impressive 10-catch, 103-yard Week 7 season debut. The accomplished veteran's final grab of the day was an impressive, contested 24-yard reception that set the Cardinals up at the Vikings' 37-yard line with 27 seconds remaining, but Arizona wasn't able to drive the rest of the way to put itself in position for a tie. However, Hopkins' performance, which also included a picturesque one-handed touchdown catch, was an unqualified success from an individual perspective, and he'll aim to extend his red-hot season-opening start at the expense of the Seahawks in a Week 9 divisional matchup.

Brown recorded six receptions on 11 targets for 156 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 35-13 win over the Steelers.

Brown scored each of Philadelphia's first three touchdowns, finding the end zone for 39, 27 and 29 yards. He narrowly missed another score early in the fourth quarter when he ripped off a 43-yard reception before being tackled at the three. All told, Brown topped 100 receiving yards for the first time since Week 1 and brought his touchdown total on the campaign to five.

Jones failed to catch any of three targets during Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Broncos in London.

Jones had 11 catches for 161 yards in his previous two games, but he had zero receptions Sunday for the second time this season. The 32-year-old's involvement in the passing game has been inconsistent this year, and QB Trevor Lawrence's continued struggles further limits the wideout's fantasy outlook.

Jones caught all three of his targets for 28 yards and rushed once for seven yards during Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Broncos in London.

Jones finished tied for third in receptions and third in receiving yards Sunday, but QB Trevor Lawrence struggled with only 133 yards through the air. Christian Kirk remains the top option in the passing game with Jones serving as the No. 2 wideout, but Lawrence's inconsistency leaves Jones as an unreliable option for fantasy managers.

Renfrow caught one of two targets for six yards in Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Saints.

Renfrow's season-low yardage total still topped fellow starter Davante Adams' mere three yards on a day when Las Vegas' passing attack struggled mightily. The shifty slot receiver has seen his production decline this season and remains without a score in his five appearances. Renfrow will strive to bounce back while breaking that drought in Week 9 versus the Jaguars.

St. Brown (concussion protocol) brought in seven of 10 targets for 69 yards in the Lions' 31-27 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

St. Brown cleared concussion protocol over the weekend and was able to get through the game without incident, leading the Lions in receptions and targets in the process. The second-year wideout averaged a modest 9.9 yards per grab in his usual short-area role, but he continued to reward fantasy managers with a safe floor, particularly in PPR formats. With his most productive showing since Week 2 now under his belt, St. Brown will carry some momentum into a Week 9 home NFC North clash against the Packers.
