Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE
Broncos' Jerry Jeudy: Considered day-to-day
Jeudy (ribs) is considered day-to-day after X-rays returned negative, and he hasn't been ruled out from playing Sunday versus the 49ers, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Jeudy was forced out of action due to a rib injury in the first quarter of the Broncos' 16-9 win over the Texans in Week 2, but his status for Week 3 hasn't yet been determined. If Jeudy can avoid any setbacks and showcase his health in practice, it sounds like he could retake the field versus San Francisco on Sunday night.

Tutu Atwell WR | LAR
Rams' Tutu Atwell: Two snaps in Week 2
Atwell logged two snaps on offense in Sunday's 31-27 victory against the Falcons.
Atwell has seemingly fallen behind Brandon Powell on the depth chart, and the speedy second-year wideout wasn't targeted on either of his two snaps on offense. With Van Jefferson (knee) likely to return to action soon, Atwell has an uphill battle ahead for playing time, barring injuries in front of him.

Michael Gallup WR | WAS
Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Could return Week 3
Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones said Monday that it's "certainly possible" Gallup (knee) could play Week 3 versus the Giants, Clarence E. Hill Jr. of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports.
Gallup has resumed practicing in a limited capacity and could have a real shot at making his season debut versus the Giants on Monday Night Football. The Cowboys will roll with Cooper Rush through at least Week 4, so it would be a notable boon for the passing game to get Gallup back in action. It's possible that Dallas wants to see Gallup resume practicing as a full participant before clearing him for a return to game action.

Jamal Agnew WR | ATL
Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Minor offensive role
Agnew had two carries for one yard, failed to catch his lone target and returned two punts for seven yards during Sunday's 24-0 win against the Colts.
Agnew played only seven offensive snaps and once again served as a gadget player in addition to his return duties. The 27-year-old is likely to remain in the same role while the rest of the receiving corps is healthy.
-
Brandon Powell WR | MIN
Rams' Brandon Powell: Takes intentional safety
Powell caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 31-27 win against the Falcons. He also returned two kicks for 14 yards and rushed once for minus-26 yards.
The glaring negative rushing yardage came late in the game, as the Rams elected to take an intentional safety on fourth down with just 13 seconds remaining, rather than punt, and trusted Powell as the man to handle the job. Other than the safety, Powell was only on the field for five other offensive snaps and seems relegated to kick-return duty with Van Jefferson (knee) likely to return soon.
-
Zay Jones WR | HOU
Jaguars' Zay Jones: Lesser role in Week 2
Jones caught three of four targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 24-0 win over the Colts.
The 27-year-old played similar snaps to Christian Kirk and Marvin Jones in the season opener but was the clear No. 3 wideout Sunday with Jacksonville leading by multiple scores for most of the game. Jones has caught nine of 13 targets for 88 yards through two games, and the game script could be more favorable Week 3 against the Chargers.
-
Ben Skowronek WR | PIT
Rams' Ben Skowronek: Just two touches
Skowronek caught two of three targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 31-27 victory against the Falcons.
Skowronek saw a dip in overall production but was on the field for 54 out of 68 snaps on offense, an encouraging sign that the team still trusts the second-year wideout significantly more than Brandon Powell and Tutu Atwell, who combined for just eight offensive snaps. As long as Van Jefferson (knee) continues to miss time, Skowronek should hold on to the No. 3 wide receiver role with a Week 3 home matchup against the Raiders looming.
-
Marvin Jones WR | DET
Jaguars' Marvin Jones: Another quiet showing
Jones caught three of five targets for 33 yards during Sunday's 24-0 win against Indianapolis.
The 32-year-old ranked third on the team in targets for the second straight week and also finished tied for third in receiving yards. Jones has secured seven of 11 targets for 71 yards through the first two games of the year as Christian Kirk has established an immediate connection with Trevor Lawrence and is the clear top option in the passing game.
-
Mike Strachan WR | WAS
Colts' Mike Strachan: Only one catch with larger role
Strachan had one reception for 23 yards on three targets in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville. He also drew a flag for an illegal shift/false start.
Strachan was the primary third receiver with Michael Pittman (quadriceps) and Alec Pierce (concussion) hurt and played on 35 of the offense's 50 snaps. However, Strachan struggled to get open, and the bad penalty may hurt his chances if the Colts decide to revamp the game plan for the receiving corps after a very poor performance where the offense did not score.
-
Dezmon Patmon WR | CAR
Colts' Dezmon Patmon: Fails to impress in increased role
Patmon had two receptions for 24 yards on six targets in Sunday's loss at Jacksonville.
Patmon had a big drop on third down in the game and didn't make a strong impression. He played on 24 of the offense's 50 snaps and worked as the fourth receiver. If Michael Pittman (quadriceps) and Alec Pierce (concussion) remain sidelined due to injury, the Colts may look elsewhere for targets in the offense.
