Sims caught three of four targets for 110 yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Giants.

Sims worked as the No. 2 WR with 74 percent snap share, while Steven Sims and Isaiah Wright got only 30 percent apiece. Granted, this was with Dontrelle Inman (hamstring) inactive and (Steven) Sims in his first game back from a prolonged absence, so it isn't necessarily clear Cam Sims will maintain the same role for Week 10 at Detroit. It is worth noting that Cam has been highly efficient with his limited chances this year, catching seven of eight targets for 171 yards and a touchdown.

Sims caught his lone target for a four-yard gain in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Giants.

After missing four straight games with a toe injury, Sims returned for Week 9 but played only 30 percent of the snaps on offense. He also had one punt return for 12 yards, while Danny Johnson handled the kick returns. It's possible Sims gets more work Week 10 at Detroit, but we haven't seen him in a significant role since mid-September.

Cobb caught all three of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 27-25 win over the Jaguars.

One game after leading the Texans in targets, Cobb was tied for fifth with Darren Fells in chances Sunday. He leads Houston's wideouts with an 80.5 catch percentage, but Cobb doesn't get much use on a week-to-week basis. The slot receiver has finished under 50 yards in five of eight games in 2020.

Godwin (finger) had three catches (six targets) for 41 yards in Sunday's 38-3 loss to New Orleans.

It was a dreadful performance all around from the Buccaneers in a primetime matchup where the team was trying to dethrone the old guard of the NFC South. Despite throwing for nearly the entire game (38 pass attempts to four carries), Tom Brady was unable to establish any rhythm with his top wideouts. The good news here is that Godwin escaped the contest without aggravating the finger injury that forced him to miss last week's contest. Look for the entire unit to bounce back against the Panthers on Sunday.

Thomas (ankle/hamstring) caught five of six targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 38-3 win over the Buccaneers.

Thomas finally made his long-awaited return from multiple leg injuries and a team-issued suspension, reclaiming his spot atop the receiving box score. The production was modest due to the combination of Drew Brees spreading the ball around to 12 different receivers and a one-sided affair that let the offense take its foot off the gas in the second half. The key for Thomas owners is that the wideout did not appear to suffer any setbacks to his lower body. The star wideout will look to return to putting up monster numbers in a favorable matchup against the Panthers' middle-of-the-road defense.

Evans had four receptions (six targets) for 64 yards in Sunday's 38-3 loss to the Saints. He appeared to tweak his groin in the third quarter, but promptly returned to the field one play later.

Once the injury scare was out of the way, fantasy managers could turn their disappointment to Evans' production on the field. The blame can't be placed entirely on the star wideout, as he didn't see a target until the second half despite the Buccaneers playing from behind for the entire contest. Evans ended up leading the team in receiving yards on a night to forget for Tom Brady and the entire Tampa Bay offense. The Bucs' aerial attack will look to get back on track in a favorable matchup against the Panthers on Sunday.

Davis recorded zero receptions on three targets in Week 9 against the Bears.

Davis saw a season-low three targets and failed to produce anything with the limited opportunity. The lack of production was in part due to game script -- Ryan Tannehill threw only 21 passes -- but both Jonnu Smith and A.J. Brown found ways to come through with decent stat lines. While the performance was certainly a setback for Davis, he has either a touchdown or 100 receiving yards in four of his seven contests this season. He'll look to get back on track in 10 against the Colts.

Zaccheaus accumulated four receptions on six targets, totaling 103 receiving yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 34-27 win against the Broncos.

Zaccheaus paced the Falcons in receiving Sunday in large part because of a 51-yard touchdown catch at the 1:24 mark of the first quarter, good for Atlanta's second-longest play from scrimmage all year. The Virginia product recorded zero receptions over his preceding three outings coming into Sunday's matchup, though he was only afforded 34 total snaps during that stretch. This isn't Zaccheaus' first significant outing of 2020, as the 23-year-old also enjoyed a two-game stretch Weeks 3 and 4 when he posted 12 combined receptions for 127 yards. Calvin Ridley (foot) has a chance to heal up over Atlanta's Week 10 bye, and if he does, Zaccheaus' role would likely be reduced when the Falcons retake the field Nov. 22 against New Orleans.

Cooper caught five of six targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Steelers. He also gained eight yards on his lone carry.

After an abysmal performance last week with Ben DiNucci under center, Cooper and the entire Dallas offense showed a little more life in this one with Garrett Gilbert at quarterback, although the end result was still the same. Cooper has recorded at least 75 scrimmage yards in seven of nine games this year, and he should remain one of the top options in the passing game coming out of the team's Week 10 bye, regardless of whether Gilbert or Andy Dalton (concussion) is at the helm.

Lamb caught four of seven targets for 71 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Steelers.

The switch to Garrett Gilbert at quarterback restored a bit of a spark to the Cowboys' passing game, and Lamb put together his best performance since Dak Prescott (ankle) was injured, with his second-quarter TD giving the Cowboys a surprising 10-0 lead that eventually evaporated. Despite the turmoil around him, the rookie wideout continues to impress, but whether Gilbert or Andy Dalton (concussion/illness) will be throwing him passes coming out of the team's Week 10 bye remains to be seen.
