  • Seahawks' Brandon Marshall: Snags four passes Monday

    Marshall caught four passes on six targets for 44 yards during Monday's 24-17 loss to the Bears.

    Marshall was a hot waiver wire pickup after Doug Baldwin went down, and he proved why with the second-most targets on the team Week 2. It was a dismal showing for fantasy owners that chose to start him. Marshall will shift his focus to a Week 3 matchup against the Cowboys, who have allowed just one passing touchdown over the first two weeks.

  • Seahawks' Tyler Lockett: Finds end zone again

    Lockett caught five of seven targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Monday night's 24-17 loss to the Bears.

    Lockett's performance was highlighted by an excellent 19-yard grab in the back corner of the end zone to bring Seattle within a touchdown during the fourth quarter. That catch gave Lockett two scores in as many appearances this season, already matching his 2017 total. In leading the Seahawks in all major receiving categories Monday, Lockett continued to take advantage of Doug Baldwin (knee) being sidelined.

  • Allen Robinson WR | DET

    Bears' Allen Robinson: Notches 10 receptions

    Robinson caught 10 of 14 targets for 83 yards in Monday night's 24-17 win over the Seahawks.

    Robinson comfortably led the Bears in all major receiving categories, making a strong impact in his home debut. In fact, Monday marked just the second time in Robinson's career that he finished with double-digit catches in a game. While that's certainly an encouraging sign to begin his time in Chicago, the team's top wideout will now look to find the end zone for the first time in his new colors Week 3 versus the Cardinals.

  • DJ Chark WR | ATL

    Jaguars' D.J. Chark: Loses fumble on first career catch

    Chark caught one of four targets for 13 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 31-20 win against the Patriots.

    Chark didn't see a target in the season opener last week, but he played 30 of 71 offensive snaps Sunday. The 21-year-old did haul in his first career catch in the third quarter but promptly lost the handle. QB Blake Bortles threw 45 passes and totaled 377 yards Sunday, yet Chark was unable take advantage of the pass-heavy offense with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) inactive. Chark was clearly the team's No. 4 receiver Sunday behind Keelan Cole, Donte Moncrief and Dede Westbrook, and he's likely to remain in that role for the near future.

  • Nick Williams WR | TEN

    Titans' Nick Williams: Inks deal with Tennessee

    Williams signed with the Titans on Monday, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.

    Williams had been impressive throughout Tennessee's training camp earlier this year, but he fell victim to the numbers game. It's unlikely the Titans will ask much of Williams from an offensive standpoint, but the veteran wideout has a potential role waiting for him on special teams.

  • DeVante Parker WR | PHI

    Dolphins' DeVante Parker: 'Could have played' Sunday

    Coach Adam Gase said Parker (finger) "could have played" Sunday against the Jets, Hal Habib of the Palm Beach Post reports.

    After following an LP/FP/FP practice regimen last week, Parker was termed questionable for Sunday's game and eventually listed among the Dolphins' inactives. Gase's comments seem to indicate Parker was a near healthy scratch, but his right middle finger figures to be that much stronger after taking no hits Week 2. Look for Parker to mix in with Kenny Stills, Danny Amendola and Albert Wilson if he's given the all-clear for Sunday's game versus the Raiders.

  • Torrey Smith WR | CAR

    Panthers' Torrey Smith: Finds end zone

    Smith caught three of seven targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-24 loss to the Falcons.

    Smith found room in the red zone to haul in a three-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter. He also went for a 26-yard gain on the day, and only Christian McCaffrey and Devin Funchess were targeted more. The available looks in the wake of Greg Olsen's (foot) absence could benefit Smith, but with Jarius Wright, D.J. Moore and Ian Thomas also vying for opportunities, Smith is one of a few complementary pieces in the team's passing attack.

  • Jehu Chesson WR | NYJ

    Jehu Chesson: Waived by Redskins

    Chesson was waived by the Redskins on Monday.

    Chesson was promoted to Washington's active roster prior to Week 2 but did not record a statistic. He will go through the waiver process and become a free agent if unclaimed.

  • Vikings' Aldrick Robinson: Signs with Vikings

    Robinson signed with the Vikings on Monday.

    Robinson played in all 16 games for the 49ers in 2017, catching 19 passes for 260 yards and two touchdowns. He may have a path to playing time immediately with Minnesota's wide receiver corps struggling behind starters Stefon Diggs and Adam Thielen. Third-string receiver Laquon Treadwell had a few key drops in Week 2's matchup against the Packers, and Robinson has a previous rapport with quarterback Kirk Cousins, with the two having spent 2012 and 2013 together in Washington.

  • Redskins' Michael Floyd: Inks deal with Washington

    The Redskins signed Floyd to a contract Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    After posting 209 catches for 3,293 yards and 19 touchdowns while missing just one game the first four years of his career, Floyd has fallen off the NFL map the past two campaigns, with a 47-566-5 line in 26 games during that span. The Redskins provide a spot for Floyd to make an impact, but he'll have to battle his way up the depth chart to do so.
