Chris Conley WR | SF
Chris Conley: Back to practice squad
Conley reverted to the Texans' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Conley failed to produce any stats on his two targets during his 10 snaps on offense in Week 1 against the Colts. The veteran receiver will work to earn another chance to suit up in Week 2 against the Broncos.

Ray-Ray McCloud WR | CHI
49ers' Ray-Ray McCloud: Handling return duties
McCloud caught one of two targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 19-10 loss to the Bears.
McCloud is sitting at fourth on the receiver depth chart, so fantasy managers won't find much to see in his Week 1 stat line. The 25-year-old return specialist primarily will serve that role for the 49ers this season.

JuJu Smith-Schuster WR | NYG
Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Limited on practice estimate
Smith-Schuster (shoulder) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports.
In his debut with Kansas City in Sunday's 44-21 win over the Cardinals, Smith-Schuster logged 46 of a possible 70 snaps on offense en route to catching six of his eight targets for 79 yards. Following his listing on Monday's initial injury report, the wideout's status will be worth monitoring ahead of Thursday night's game against the Chargers, but so far there's nothing to suggest that Smith-Schuster is in danger of sitting out the contest.

Jauan Jennings WR | MIN
49ers' Jauan Jennings: Leads team in receiving
Jennings played 41 of 68 offensive snaps and caught four of six targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 19-10 loss to the Bears.
Jennings turned out to be the unexpected beneficiary of Elijah Mitchell's (knee) early departure, as Deebo Samuel was forced back to play his unnatural position of running back, effectively making Jennings and Brandon Aiyuk (67 of 68 offensive snaps and two catches for 40 yards) to take over as the 49ers' top two wideouts for the remainder of the contest. The big-framed wideout has improved at a rapid pace since he was selected in the seventh round of the 2020 Draft. Jennings already was lined up to serve as the team's third wideout this year, and he may be asked to take on a bigger role while Mitchell (initial timetable of two months) and George Kittle (groin) recover from their unfortunately timed injuries. Next Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks will clear up a convoluted fantasy situation in San Francisco, which was both literally and figuratively muddied by a shocking loss at Soldier Field. With the first waiver-wire period embarking on the fantasy world -- and a wild Week 1 not even in the books -- Jennings probably won't be a top priority add but could be a decent consolation prize to end up with.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. WR | DET
Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Makes two grabs in Dolphins debut
Wilson secured both of his targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 20-9 win over the Patriots.
Wilson doesn't have tremendous target share upside operating behind both Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, but the skilled separator should have better days ahead in Mike McDaniel's offense. The No. 3 wideout's more productive weeks may be difficult to predict, though, so Wilson is likely only on the fantasy radar in extremely deep leagues or best-ball formats.

Rondale Moore WR | MIN
Cardinals' Rondale Moore: Day-to-day with hamstring
Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury said Monday that Moore (hamstring) is "pretty much day-to-day at this point," Jose M. Romero of The Arizona Republic reports.
Moore left last Thursday's practice early due to the issue and ultimately didn't suit up for the season opener. He underwent an MRI, but the results are unknown, and he appears to have avoided a significant injury. Wednesday's practice report should provide further clarity on the second-year wideout's availability for Week 2, but the final decision may not come until closer to Sunday. If available, Moore figures to have a sizable role in the Cardinals offense until DeAndre Hopkins returns from suspension.
-
Chris Godwin WR | TB
Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: May have avoided major injury
Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said Monday that Godwin's hamstring injury isn't as severe as they feared, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.
Godwin secured all three of his targets for 35 yards before being ruled out at halftime of Sunday night's win. Initial reports suggested that he would miss at least a few weeks, but Bowles remains optimistic that the star wideout could return sooner than later, saying Godwin's absence is just a matter of how he responds to treatment. Regardless, Godwin also just recently cleared his rehab from a torn ACL, so Tampa Bay likely will be extremely cautious with him moving forward. If Godwin is forced to time, Russell Gage and Julio Jones would be prime candidates for increased roles behind Mike Evans.

Keenan Allen WR | IND
Chargers' Keenan Allen: Listed as DNP
Allen (hamstring) was listed as a non-participant on the Chargers' estimated injury report Monday.
Allen was forced out of Sunday's 24-19 win over the Raiders due to the hamstring issue and is slated for an MRI on Monday, which should provide further clarity on the injury. It's not surprising to see the star wideout listed as a non-participant Monday, and with the short turnaround, it's likely the Chargers won't push Allen to play in Thursday's showdown with the Chiefs.
-
Wan'Dale Robinson WR | TEN
Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Considered day-to-day
Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Monday that Robinson (knee) is considered "day-to-day," Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Robinson hauled in his only target for five yards before leaving Sunday's win over Tennessee due to a knee injury. Daboll wouldn't elaborate on the rookie second-round pick's injury, but it appears like Robinson may have avoided a serious issue. However, if he's forced to miss time, Kadarius Toney and Sterling Shepard would be candidates for increased roles.
-
Jalen Nailor WR | LV
Vikings' Jalen Nailor: Limited to special teams
Nailor played all 13 snaps on special teams in Sunday's win over Green Bay.
Nailor appears to have recovered from a concussion suffered during Minnesota's final preseason game Aug. 27, but he'll likely have a very limited role on offense barring injuries to starters. He could eventually work his way into the return game on kickoff or punt returns.
