Bourne had two receptions (four targets) for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 43-17 loss to Miami.

Bourne was finally able to find the end zone for the first time this season, even if it happened to come in garbage time of a blowout loss. The negative news for the veteran wideout is that he moved to third on the depth chart (66 percent of offensive snaps) with both Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk fully healthy and on the field together for the first time this year. The 49ers' struggles in the passing game already limited Bourne's value when he was a starter, and the slight hit in value will limit him to deeper fantasy formats and a DFS flyer going forward.

St. Brown (knee) returned to practice Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

The Packers have officially designated St. Brown to return from IR, a transaction which kicks off his 21-day window to be evaluated in practice. The 24-year-old has missed Green Bay's last three games due to a knee injury, but he was a healthy scratch Week 1, so even if St. Brown is available against the Buccaneers on Sunday he may not handle a significant workload. With Allen Lazard (abdomen) expected to miss multiple games, however, St. Brown could see a limited uptick in offensive opportunities as long as he's able to prove he's fully healthy.

McCloud brought in all three of his targets for 12 yards while also rushing for 63 yards on two carries in Sunday's 38-29 win over the Eagles.

McCloud didn't log any catches or carries over the first three weeks of the season, but he saw a modest workload in the Week 5 win. In the process, he led the Steelers in rushing yards as a result of a 58-yard carry early in the third quarter. While McCloud recorded a career-high 75 total yards Sunday, he's mostly played on special teams to begin the season and has limited fantasy upside while operating in a crowded wide receiver corps in Pittsburgh.

Adams (hamstring) is participating in Monday's practice, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Adams didn't suit up for Green Bay's win over the Falcons in Week 4 while tending to a lingering hamstring strain, but it looks as though he's avoided any setbacks during the team's subsequent bye. The Packers are hoping to have the star receiver at full health for Sunday's upcoming contest in Tampa Bay, but an official update on his injury may not come until Wednesday's first practice report of the week is released. With Allen Lazard (abdomen) expected to miss multiple games after undergoing core muscle surgery, a return to the lineup by Adams would provide Green Bay's aerial attack with a significant boost.

Williams (hamstring) is trending in the right direction for Monday's game against the Saints, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Williams is officially listed as questionable after putting together back-to-back limited practices, but it looks as though he's got a fair shot at taking the field. A final word on the big-bodied wideout's status may not come until the Chargers' inactives are released ahead of Monday's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.

Jones caught his only target for two yards in Sunday's 40-32 win over the Chiefs.

Jones, who logged a season-high 66 offensive snaps Week 4 against the Bills, saw his role severely reduced Sunday due to Henry Ruggs' (knee) return from a two-game absence. The upcoming bye week lends additional opportunity for receiver Bryan Edwards (ankle/foot) to get healthy as well, which would further downgrade Jones' outlook for a Week 7 tilt against the Buccaneers.

Moore didn't haul in any of his three targets during Sunday's 27-26 win over the Vikings.

Moore's boom-or-bust style was on full display Sunday night, as he dropped a 40-yard pass from Russell Wilson in the end zone late in the third quarter. The 25-year-old receiver was targeted twice more but couldn't haul either one in. Moore's enjoyed a couple of impressive fantasy games already this season, though, so he's worth a look in DFS tournaments on a weekly basis.

Renfrow caught his only target for 42 yards in Sunday's 40-32 win over the Chiefs.

Renfrow's 42-yard reception on third and long in the fourth quarter was crucial for the Raiders' upset victory, but the one-catch performance disappointed fantasy managers after he racked up 17 total targets in Weeks 3 and 4. Fellow receiver Bryan Edwards (ankle/foot) has a chance to return Week 7 following the team's bye, but his potential availability might not have much of an effect on Renfrow's workload in the slot.

Jefferson played 18 offensive snaps but wasn't targeted during Sunday's 30-10 win over Washington.

The rookie is off the seasonal fantasy radar at this point. He hasn't caught a pass since Week 2 and is playing sparingly. Jefferson garnered praise during the offseason and is billed as a polished route runner with plus hands. However, it's clear that he's currently fourth on the wide receiver depth chart, and he's likely to continue being a non-factor barring an injury to one of the team's other WRs. Still, fantasy managers looking ahead to the 2021 season in dynasty settings could consider Jefferson a buy-low candidate to stash.

Wilson caught all four of his targets for 22 yards and threw an 11-yard touchdown pass to Dak Prescott (ankle) in Sunday's win over the Giants.

Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore continue to find creative ways to get his No. 4 wide receiver involved. In this game, Wilson took a pitch from Prescott on an apparent reverse, only to throw the ball back to a wide-open QB for a score. With Prescott now lost for the season, however, and Andy Dalton taking over under center, Wilson's role could change or even disappear if the offense puts more emphasis on the running game.
