Hill isn't expected to miss time after he sustained a minor knee injury in Sunday's loss to the Bills, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Hill didn't appear to be limited while playing most of Sunday's game, but coach Andy Reid revealed after the loss that the receiver is nursing a knee issue. However, the 27-year-old will likely be available for Sunday's Week 6 matchup against Washington.

Harry was on the field for 22 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 25-22 win over the Texans, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

In the process, Harry caught one of his two targets for nine yards. As long as the 2019 first-rounder continues to be out-snapped by Jakobi Meyers, Nelson Agholor and Kendrick Bourne, his fantasy value will remain limited. That said Harry's role could grow in the coming weeks if any of the aforementioned trio misses time as the season progresses.

Bourne caught all three of his targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 25-22 win over the Texans.

Bourne logged 32 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in the contest, while Jakobi Meyers was out there for 58 snaps and Nelson Agholor saw action on 43 plays. Prior to Sunday's modest statistical effort, Bourne had caught 11 of 13 targets for 154 yards and a TD over his previous two outings. He'll look to pick up the pace in this coming Sunday's game against Dallas, but as long as Meyers, Agholor and TEs Hunter Henry and Jonnu Smith command their share of targets, Bourne's PPR production could be hit or miss.

Agholor logged 43 of a possible 64 snaps on offense in Sunday's 25-22 win over the Texans en route to catching three of his four targets for 32 yards, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

After hauling in five passes for 72 yards in Week 1, Agholor has recorded three catches in three of his last four outings. Jakobi Meyers, who has 31 catches to date, remains the Patriots' top WR from a fantasy perspective, while Agholor and Kendrick Bourne (three catches for 26 yards Sunday) are producing at a rate that limits their utility to deeper formats.

Berrios caught his only target for six yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Falcons.

Berrios doesn't have much of a role with the Jets' receiving corps healthy. Barring more injuries cropping up ahead of him, Berrios is unlikely to make much of a difference moving forward.

Beasley caught just one of two targets for five yards in Buffalo's 38-20 win over Kansas City on Sunday night.

Considering just how fantastic Beasley was all of last season and the early part of this one, managers have to be grossly disappointed seeing the Bills put up 78 points over the last two games and Beasley having a horrible 3-21-0 combined line over that span. Tight end Dawson Knox and veteran receiver Emmanuel Sanders have become major producers in this offense, and that's pushed down Stefon Diggs and Beasley from their normal levels of output. Beasley will have his days -- he's too much of a trusted target for Josh Allen not to -- as exhibited by his 11-98-0 line just before the two recent clunkers, but trying to figure out when exactly those games are going to hit will be a tough task, as the veteran slot man's output has been all over the board through five games.

Cole caught two of three targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Falcons.

Cole actually came just seven receiving yards short of Corey Davis' team-leading total, as the Jets struggled to move the ball through the air. He was on the field for 31 of New York's 56 offensive snaps, trailing Davis and slot receiver Jamison Crowder but notably finishing ahead of rookie Elijah Moore (23). New York's Week 6 bye will present further opportunities to integrate Moore into the offense, and it wouldn't be surprising to see Moore's playing time climb at Cole's expense once the team returns to action.

An MRI on Smith-Schuster's shoulder Sunday night revealed that the wideout will need surgery, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Per Rapoport, the procedure, which has yet to take place, is expected to end Smith-Schuster's season, with Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette having previously reported that the wideout is expected to land on IR. In Smith-Schuster's looming absence, Diontae Johnson and Chase Claypool are in line to head the Steelers' WR corps, with James Washington a candidate to assume a larger role once he's back from a groin injury that sidelined him Week 5.

Crowder caught four of six targets for 24 yards and added a two-point conversion in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Atlanta.

Crowder trailed only Corey Davis (four catches for 45 yards on seven targets) in targets, and they shared the team lead in receptions. They are the two main weapons in the Jets' passing game, but quarterback Zach Wilson failed to reach the 200-yard passing mark in this one, so Crowder's prominent role doesn't automatically equate to fantasy success. Crowder and the Jets will be on bye Week 6 as they travel back stateside following this loss in London.

Hinton secured two of his three targets for 25 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Steelers.

Hinton played on 65 percent of Denver's offensive snaps Sunday, his highest mark of the season. The wideout's two-yard touchdown grab was his first of the 2021 campaign. The uptick in Hinton's snaps is a direct result of the injury issues plaguing the Broncos' receiving corps, headlined by Jerry Jeudy (ankle) and KJ Hamler (knee). With Jeudy scheduled to make his return from an ankle injury in the coming weeks, Hinton likely will see a reduction in his playing time. The 24-year-old will be tough to trust going forward based on his sporadic usage. If Jeudy does not return Week 7, it's possible that Hinton could have similar involvement in the Broncos' aerial attack when the team hosts the Raiders.
