Campbell caught four of six targets for 56 yards in Monday night's 31-25 overtime loss to the Ravens.

Campbell started well, securing a couple gains for first downs early in the game. Although the speedster subsequently had a drop just before halftime, Campbell overall turned in his best showing of the season, with only fellow wideout Michael Pittman being targeted more often. Despite it coming in a losing effort, Campbell will strive to continue his progress in Week 6 versus the Texans.

Pittman caught six of seven targets for 89 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 31-25 overtime loss to the Ravens.

Pittman didn't get his first touch until the second quarter but kept his momentum going afterward. He set up a field goal with a nice gain prior to halftime and was utilized on some quick screens in the second half. However, his night was definitely highlighted by his superb, 42-yard touchdown to begin the third quarter. That catch came as Pittman was forced to come back to a floating deep pass and tower over the opposing defensive back before carrying on through contact into the end zone. It was quite the way for the second-year pro to score his first touchdown of the season, and considering Pittman has now caught at least six passes in four straight games while topping 85 yards twice, he enters the Week 6 favorable matchup against the Texans with his stock on the rise.

Brown caught nine of 10 targets for 125 yards and two touchdowns in Monday night's 31-25 overtime win over the Colts.

Brown was frustratingly missed on a couple scoring opportunities late in the first half and had to wait until the third quarter to make his first catch. After that point, however, he and quarterback Lamar Jackson helped turn Monday's game around, with the dynamic duo connecting on a 43-yard touchdown late in the third quarter. Brown remained highly involved as Baltimore overcame a 16-point fourth-quarter deficit to force overtime, which he then ended with a five-yard touchdown grab on the Ravens' first drive. It was another big performance for Brown, who has topped 90 yards three times and scored on five occasions through five games this season.

Moore failed to secure either of his two targets in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Steelers.

In his second game as a Bronco after being signed off the Raider's practice squad on Sept. 27, Moore played on just four of the team's 60 offensive snaps. The veteran wideout's seven percent snap percentage was down from the 31 percent of offensive snaps he played in his Week 4 debut against the Ravens. With fellow receiver Jerry Jeudy set to make his return from an ankle injury in the coming weeks, Moore will remain well off the fantasy radar going forward.

Palmer caught two of his three targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 47-42 win over the Browns.

Palmer played 16 offensive snaps but was once again relegated to offensive afterthought. After seemingly emerging from training camp as the No. 3 pass catcher, Palmer has more or less been a depth piece behind Jalen Guyton, Keenan Allen and Mike Williams and likely won't rise above that spot unless injuries occur.

Giants head coach Joe Judge said the ankle/foot injury Toney sustained in Sunday's 44-20 loss to the Cowboys isn't "anything significant, in terms of season-ending," but the rookie receiver's status for this weekend's game against the Rams is uncertain, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

Toney was forced out late in Sunday's contest after being ejected for punching Cowboys safety Damontae Kazee, but the wideout still appeared to hurt his leg at some point earlier in the contest, as he was carted to the locker room shortly after he was tossed from the game. He still saw enough field time and took advantage of numerous absences from skill-position players to finish with a 10-189-0 line on 13 targets, while also gaining seven yards on a carry. The breakout performance could motivate the Giants to find ways to get the first-round pick more reps moving forward, but Toney's injury could complicate those plans. He'll likely be a limited participant, at best, when the Giants hold their first Week 6 practice Wednesday.

Moore reverted back to the Texans' practice squad Monday, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

With Danny Amendola (thigh) sidelined, Moore was elevated to the active roster for Sunday's contest against the Patriots. He didn't disappoint, totaling five catches for 109 yards -- both career highs -- and one touchdown. The 28-year-old has already been elevated twice, so the Texans will need to sign him to a contract if they want him on the active roster for Week 6.

The Buccaneers listed Godwin as a limited participant on Monday's estimated practice report with knee and ankle injuries, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.

Tampa Bay provided no indication that Godwin was banged up coming out of Sunday's 45-17 win over the Dolphins, with the wideout playing 51 of 74 offensive snaps (69 percent) and recording seven catches for 70 yards on a team-high 11 targets. Assuming he upgrades to full participation in practice by Wednesday, he should approach Thursday's game against the Eagles without a designation.

The Ravens activated Boykin (hamstring) from injured reserve ahead of Monday's game against the Colts, Ryan Mink of Baltimore's official site reports.

Boykin presumably will suit up Monday for his season debut, after the hamstring injury he suffered in an Aug. 2 training camp practice sidelined him for the entire preseason and the Ravens' first four regular-season contests. Though he looks healthy again after practicing for the previous two weeks, Boykin could be eased back into the Ravens' receiving corps with a limited role Monday. He was a bit contributor in the passing attack while playing a full 16-game slate in 2020, notching 19 receptions for 266 yards and four touchdowns.

Lions head coach Dan Campbell confirmed Monday that Cephus likely will miss the rest of the season after the receiver sustained a broken collarbone in Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Vikings, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.

Per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network, Cephus is slated to undergo surgery to address the injury, which typically entails a three-month recovery. While that timeline theoretically gives Cephus a chance to make it back for Week 18 in early January, the 0-5 Lions aren't expected to be in playoff contention and most likely won't be looking to activate the second-year wideout. Through five games, Cephus had been one of the better producers in a weak Detroit pass-catching group, notching 15 receptions for 204 yards and two touchdowns on 22 targets.
