Cooks caught all three of his targets for 18 yards and added 14 yards on a pair of carries during Sunday's 20-7 loss to the 49ers.

After clearing the concussion protocol on Friday, Cooks was deemed to be fully healthy for this one, although a putrid showing by the offense limited his output in this one. He brought in each ball thrown his way, but Jared Goff struggled to make any plays downfield as he finished with just 78 passing yards. Cooks has struggled to make an impact over the last two games, totaling four catches (on six targets) for 47 yards and adding 41 yards on three carries. He should have his opportunities to get back on track in what could be a high-scoring road matchup with the Falcons next Sunday.

Parker caught three of four targets for 28 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 17-16 loss to Washington.

Parker reached paydirt via a connection with Ryan Fitzpatrick, who replaced Josh Rosen under center in the fourth quarter. While the 2015 first-round pick isn't operating as the No. 1 option in Miami's receiving game, having been out-targeted by both Preston Williams and Albert Wilson in Week 6, he appears to be benefiting from high-quality looks. In four of five contests thus far, Parker has either eclipsed 50 receiving yards or scored a touchdown.

Woods failed to catch any of his four targets and had two carries for 16 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 20-7 loss to the 49ers.

Woods' afternoon started brightly enough, as the wideout received a pair of carries on the opening drive, including an eight-yard touchdown scamper to cap it off. He made no further statistical contributions, however, as an anemic showing by the passing attack saw him finish without a catch for the first time in nearly four calendar years. It's been a tough start to the season for Woods, who's exceeded 50 receiving yards just twice in six games and is still in search of his first receiving touchdown. Next Sunday's road matchup against the Falcons could present him with opportunities to get back on track.

Kupp caught four of six targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 20-7 loss to the 49ers.

Kupp led the team in targets yet again, though his middling total of six was easily his lowest of the season. He did little with his looks but was still just eight yards off the team lead in receiving, which is a true testament to how futile the offense was in this one. Kupp was been one of the top wideouts in fantasy over the first five weeks of the season and will enjoy an excellent opportunity to bounce back next Sunday on the road against the Falcons.

Sutton caught four of eight targets for 76 yards during Sunday's 16-0 win over Tennessee. He fumbled during the contest, but the ball traveled out of bounds.

Sunday wasn't a banner day for Denver's offense, but Sutton came up twice in the clutch, first in the second quarter with a 41-yard reception down the sideline to move the Broncos from deep in their territory to within range for what was the team's second field goal of the day. He stepped up again during Denver's last full drive in the fourth quarter, converting a third down with an 18-yard catch over the middle to set up another Denver field goal. Sutton has been Denver's most dynamic target this season with at least 75 yards in four of six games and an impressive 15.9 yards per catch. Emmanuel Sanders left at halftime with a knee injury, and if he's out Thursday against Kansas City, Sutton will need to carry the load.

Samuel suffered an apparent quad injury late in Sunday's victory over the Rams, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

Samuel was targeted five times and caught three passes for 18 yards -- while adding a one-yard carry -- before leaving the contest in the fourth quarter. He will undergo further testing Monday to determine the extent of his injury.

Snead caught three of five targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 23-17 win over the Bengals.

Snead finished second on the team in targets, but he did virtually nothing of note as his longest gain went for just 10 yards. The absence of Marquise Brown (ankle) had little impact on usage for the veteran, who had received five targets in two of the previous three games and averaged 53 yards per game over that stretch. Snead is far from a bankable fantasy option seemingly regardless of who's in the lineup, and this should remain the case in next week's away matchup with the Seahawks.

Erickson caught four of six targets for 47 receiving yards during Sunday's 23-17 defeat to the Ravens.

A special-teams ace by trade, Erickson has seen an uptick in his offensive involvement lately with injuries to A.J. Green (ankle) and John Ross (shoulder). Against Baltimore, Erickson garnered six-plus targets for just the third time in Cincinnati's past 36 regular-season games, while his 47 yards were his most since Week 17 of last year. Up next, he and the Bengals receiving corps will be going up against a Jaguars defense that allowed only Michael Thomas to exceed 40 receiving yards Sunday.

Hardman caught all four of his targets for 45 yards during Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Texans.

Hardman tied for second on the team in receptions and finished behind only Tyreek Hill in receiving yards among Chiefs wideouts. While Sammy Watkins (hamstring) was inactive for this one, it was encouraging to see Hardman maintain a role with the rest of the team's top pass-catchers in uniform. He should see a handful of targets Thursday against the Broncos, but he'll remain dependent on big plays.

Cooper (quadriceps) has been ruled out of Sunday's contest at the Jets, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

The Cowboys limited Cooper's practice reps this past week due to ankle and quad issues, only for the wide receiver to presumably aggravate the latter in the first quarter of this game. Cooper joins Randall Cobb (back) and Devin Smith (coach's decision) on the sideline, leaving wide receiver reps to be handled by Michael Gallup, Tavon Austin, Cedrick Wilson and Ventell Bryant.
