Arcega-Whiteside (calf) is listed as inactive Sunday at San Francisco.

Arcega-Whiteside joins Alshon Jeffery (foot) and DeSean Jackson (hamstring) on the Eagles' list of inactives for Week 4, which leaves Greg Ward, John Hightower, Deontay Burnett and Travis Fulgham as the healthy wide receivers available to Carson Wentz. Looking ahead, Arcega-Whiteside will attempt to get past his calf injury for next Sunday's game in Pittsburgh.

Anderson hauled in eight of 11 targets for 99 receiving yards during Sunday's 31-21 win against the Cardinals.

Anderson continues to produce like a Pro Bowl receiver for his former college coach Matt Rhule, as the Temple product has already accumulated 28 receptions for 377 yards and a touchdown through the first quarter of Carolina's regular-season slate. The argument can be made that he is the top WR option (if not co-WR1) for the new-look Panthers, as Anderson has out-targeted D.J. Moore 34-32 through four weeks. It's all systems go for Anderson heading into Week 5, when he'll face a Falcons defense that is currently dealing with injuries to Keanu Neal (hamstring), Ricardo Allen (elbow) and Darqueze Dennard (hamstring).

Agnew had one carry for two yards and caught one of two targets for one yard during Sunday's loss to the Saints.

The Lions tried to get creative with Agnew but nothing became of it. While the versatile gadget player should continue to get a few opportunities per game, Agnew will probably remain an unreliable bet for production on a weekly basis.

Beasley (foot) returned to Sunday's game at Las Vegas, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

Prior to his departure in the first half, Beasley had two catches for 18 yards and a touchdown. He'll look to help the Bills close out a fourth consecutive victory to start the season.

McLaurin tallied 10 receptions on 14 targets for 118 yards in Week 4 against Baltimore.

McLaurin took advantage of game script, vacuuming up 14 of Dwayne Haskins' 45 pass attempts. Five of his 10 receptions went for double-digit yards, highlighted by a 39-yard gain late in the fourth quarter. Though he has found the end zone only once through four games, McLaurin has racked up 387 receiving yards on 26 receptions and 39 targets. He'll look to continue his strong start to the campaign as Washington takes on the Rams in Week 5.

Thielen caught eight of his 10 targets, totaling 114 receiving yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 31-23 win against Houston.

Thielen's previous outing was largely salvaged by a touchdown as he otherwise accounted for only 29 receiving yards and three catches against the Titans in Week 3. That performance came on the heels of a disappointing three-catch, 31-yard outing against the Colts, but the Minnesota State standout returned to Pro-Bowl form against Houston on Sunday. Thielen attracted twice as many targets as any other Viking en route to his second 100-yard outing of the year, also corralling his fourth TD pass of 2020 against the Texans. He'll next face a Seahawks defense that entered Week 4 allowing 80.4 more passing yards per game (430.7) than any other team in the NFL.

Higgins caught four of seven targets for 77 yards and added a 13-yard rush in Sunday's 33-25 win over the Jaguars.

Higgins also had a ball clank off his hands on what would have been an easy chunk gain, but he still set a new career high in receiving yards for the third consecutive game. The rookie second-rounder posted a goose egg in his debut and had just 35 yards in Week 2, but he broke out with 40 yards and two touchdowns in Week 3 and finished just 13 yards shy of Tyler Boyd's team-leading total against Jacksonville. Higgins will look to keep progressing against the Ravens in Week 5.

Boyd caught seven of eight targets for 90 yards and added a four-yard rush in Sunday's 33-25 win over the Jaguars.

Boyd had a would-be 16-yard touchdown nullified by a holding penalty in the first quarter, but he still delivered a nice performance, leading the team in targets, catches and receiving yards. After catching only four balls for 33 yards in Week 1, Boyd has exploded for 287 yards and a touchdown on 24 receptions over the past three games, coinciding with three consecutive 300-yard passing performances from rookie quarterback Joe Burrow. Boyd's the leading option in what has turned into a surprisingly high-octane passing attack heading into a Week 5 trip to Baltimore.

Grant brought in three of four targets for 36 yards and returned one punt for 11 yards in the Dolphins' 31-23 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

Grant checked in third among Dolphins wideouts in receptions and receiving yardage, trailing DeVante Parker and Isaiah Ford. He was coming off having compiled 107 all-purpose yards in a Week 3 victory against the Jaguars, and although his day wasn't quite as productive Sunday, Grant's catch total equaled a season high while his yardage tally was a new high-water mark in 2020. The speedster will look to build on his numbers in a Week 5 road matchup against the 49ers.

Ford secured four of 10 targets for 48 yards in the Dolphins' 31-23 loss to the Seahawks on Sunday.

The 2017 seventh-round pick put together his second-best reception tally of the season in the loss while notably checking in second in catches, receiving yards and targets to DeVante Parker. Ford appears to have grasped the intricacies of coordinator Chan Gailey's offense, now having recorded 15 grabs for 151 yards on 26 targets through four games. Whether he's surpassed Preston Williams for the No. 2 receiver job for all practical purposes remains to be seen, but Ford will have another opportunity to build up his numbers in a Week 5 road battle against the 49ers.
