  • Randall Cobb WR | NYJ

    Packers' Randall Cobb: Turns in vintage performance

    Cobb recorded seven receptions on 13 targets for 99 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Giants.

    Cobb led the team in targets, receptions and yards by a sizeable margin. His performance was highlighted by a few big gains of 35 and 20 yards, but he was also regularly a checkdown option for Aaron Rodgers. Cobb entered the game having failed to record more than three receptions in a game, so this performance appears to be an outlier.

  • Allen Lazard WR | NYJ

    Packers' Allen Lazard: Touchdown saves day

    Lazard recorded four receptions on eight targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Giants.

    Lazard finished second on the team with eight targets, though that translated into little production. He did manage one long reception that went for 17 yards midway through the third quarter after scoring a touchdown from four yards away late in the opening quarter. Lazard has now been held under 50 yards in three of his four games this season, though he does have three touchdowns.

  • Jalen Tolbert WR | MIA

    Cowboys' Jalen Tolbert: Not playing Sunday

    Tolbert (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday at the Rams, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Through the first five games of his career, Tolbert has made just one appearance to date. With the rookie third-round pick again in street clothes, the Cowboys' receiving corps will be composed of CeeDee Lamb, Michael Gallup, Noah Brown, Simi Fehoko and KaVontae Turpin.

  • Penny Hart WR | ATL

    Seahawks' Penny Hart: Forced out Sunday

    Hart was ruled out with a hamstring injury for the remainder of Sunday's game versus the Saints, Curtis Crabtree of Fox 13 Seattle reports.

    Hart did not record a catch before exiting with a hamstring issue at some point during Sunday's game, though the exact severity of this issue is still unknown. The 26-year-old wideout recorded one reception while playing eight offensive snaps over the first four weeks of the season, and his next chance to play will come against the Cardinals on Oct. 16.

  • Chris Olave WR | NO

    Saints' Chris Olave: Concussion confirmed

    Olave sustained a concussion during Sunday's game versus the Seahawks, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.

    Olave picked up the injury when his head hit the turf hard as he was tackled by a Seattle defender on a third-quarter touchdown. His final Week 5 line will read four catches for 54 yards and the score on six targets. With Michael Thomas (foot) and Jarvis Landry (ankle) inactive and Deonte Harty (foot) leaving this contest as well, Marquez Callaway, Tre'Quan Smith and Keith Kirkwood are the Saints' healthy wide receivers.

  • Nelson Agholor WR | BAL

    Patriots' Nelson Agholor: Exits Sunday's game

    Agholor was forced out of Sunday's game against the Lions with a hamstring injury.

    In Agholor's absence, Jakobi Meyers, DeVante Parker, Kendrick Bourne, Tyquan Thornton and Lil'Jordan Humphrey remain on hand to log WR snaps for the Patriots versus Detroit. Prior to his exit from Sunday's contest, Agholor did not record a catch.

  • Chris Olave WR | NO

    Saints' Chris Olave: To be examined for head injury

    Olave left Sunday's game against the Seahawks to be evaluated for a head injury, Deuce Windham of The Athletic reports.

    In the process of making a 16-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter, Olave's head hit the turf hard as he was tackled to the ground. After a check from the Saints' medical staff, he was able to get to his feet and go to the locker room. If he's unable to return, Olave will finish Week 5 with four catches (on six targets) for 54 yards and the aforementioned score.

  • Rondale Moore WR | MIN

    Cardinals' Rondale Moore: Active in Week 5

    Moore (knee) is active for Sunday's game versus the Eagles, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Moore's season debut was delayed to last Sunday in Carolina due to a hamstring injury. He mostly was quiet in that contest, gathering in three of five targets for 11 yards and losing four yards on his only carry while handling 84 percent of the offensive snaps. During Week 5 prep, he made an appearance on the practice report Thursday and proceeded to log a pair of limited showings to cap it. While he was deemed a game-time decision, Moore will be out there for a Cardinals receiving corps that remains without DeAndre Hopkins (suspension) and Antoine Wesley (hip, IR).

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Suiting up in Week 5

    Lamb (groin) is listed as active Sunday at the Rams, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Lamb showed up on the injury report Thursday as a non-participant due to a groin issue. He was able to return Friday as limited, and despite going into the weekend as questionable to play, there was an expectation that he would do just that. Indeed, that has come to pass, and Lamb now will be available against an L.A. defense that has allowed the second-most receiving yards per game (211.8) and six touchdowns to wide receivers in four contests this season.

  • Deonte Harty WR | BAL

    Saints' Deonte Harty: Questionable to return

    Harty (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Seahawks, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.

    Harty did not record a catch before exiting during the first half against Seattle. The 24-year-old was previously limited with a foot injury after sitting out Week 3, but he was able to return heading into last Sunday's loss to the Vikings. With Harty sidelined, Marquez Callaway figures to step in as New Orleans' primary return specialist.
