  • Kalif Raymond WR | CHI

    Lions' Kalif Raymond: Little impact in Week 3

    Raymond caught one of two targets for four yards in Monday's 38-30 win over the Ravens.

    Raymond remains an afterthought on offense for Detroit, and his production dropped for the third week in a row. The wide receiver is firmly behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams on the depth chart, and his weekly upside is greatly reduced as a result. On the year, Raymond has caught four of six targets for 34 yards, while also adding a nine-yard carry over three games.

  • Malik Turner WR | SF

    Malik Turner: Lands back on practice squad

    Turner reverted to the 49ers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Turner got his first elevation of the season for Sunday's win over Arizona and logged seven special-teams snaps along with one snap on offense. San Francisco's wideout corps has been depleted early in the season, as Brandon Aiyuk (knee) is on the PUP list, Jacob Cowing (hamstring) and Trent Taylor (undisclosed) are on IR, and Jauan Jennings (shoulder/ankle) missed Week 3. With that being said, even if Turner gets elevated again Week 4, he probably won't see much (if any) work on offense.

  • Alex Bachman WR | LV

    Alex Bachman: Returns to practice squad

    Bachman reverted to the Raiders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Bachman was elevated to the active roster for the third game in a row, failing to record any stats while playing four snaps on offense and 15 snaps with the special-teams unit in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Commanders. The wide receiver will now be ineligible to appear in another contest this season with Las Vegas unless the Raiders officially sign him to the active roster.

  • Kaden Davis WR | CLE

    Kaden Davis: Reverts to practice squad

    Davis reverted to the Browns' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Davis played 14 snaps on special teams and returned one kick for 28 yards during the Browns' 13-10 win over the Packers on Sunday. It was the first time he was elevated from the practice squad, and he can be called up twice more before the Browns would be required to sign him to the active roster in order for him to play again this season with Cleveland.

  • Titans' Tyler Lockett: Some impact in Week 3

    Lockett recorded four receptions (on four targets) for 37 yards in Sunday's 41-20 loss to the Colts.

    Lockett has maintained a consistent snap rate across three games in Tennessee, playing nearly exactly half of the snaps in every contest. His performance in Sunday's loss was his best of the year, highlighted by a long gain of 16 yards. Elic Ayomanor, Calvin Ridley and Chig Okonkwo are likely to remain prioritized ahead of Lockett in the offense, leaving him with limited upside on a weekly basis.

  • Chimere Dike WR | TEN

    Titans' Chimere Dike: Stays involved

    Dike recorded three receptions on four targets for two yards in Sunday's 41-20 loss to the Colts. He added two rushes for three yards as well as six kick returns for 162 yards.

    Dike looked to have his first career touchdown on a jet sweep midway through the third quarter, though the play was reviewed and it was determined he went out of bounds at the one-yard line. He also commanded four targets for the second consecutive game, though his increased role has resulted in only one total receiving yard on five catches.

  • Tre Harris WR | LAC

    Chargers' Tre' Harris: Just one target Week 3

    Harris failed to haul in his lone target during the Chargers' 23-20 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

    Harris' lone look from Justin Herbert came in the third quarter on a deep pass that fell incomplete. While Harris' production was down from Week 2 against Las Vegas (two catches on three targets for 34 yards), he did see the field for 25 offensive snaps against Denver, and his playing time has increased over the first three games of the regular season. Next up for the Chargers is a Week 4 road bout against the Giants.

  • Jaylin Lane WR | WAS

    Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Returns punt for TD

    Lane ran a punt back for a touchdown and lost two yards on his lone reception in a 41-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

    The rookie fourth-round pick was one of five Washington wide receivers with route share above 40 percent but below 60 percent. That was partially a product of Terry McLaurin exiting early with a quad injury and Noah Brown (groin) not being available, but Deebo Samuel also had his snaps scaled way back for reasons seemingly unrelated to any injury. In any case, Lane is making a strong impression in the return game and could eventually take over some of Samuel's tasks on offense if Deebo misses time.

  • Chris Moore WR | WAS

    Commanders' Chris Moore: Targeted twice

    Moore caught both of his targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 41-24 win over the Raiders.

    Moore's 59 percent route share was tops among Washington wide receivers, albeit on an unusual afternoon that saw OC Kliff Kingsbury deploy deep rotations and a slew of players at each position. Terry McLaurin ended up suffering a quadriceps injury in the second half, potentially opening the door for Moore to have a considerable role again in Week 4 at Atlanta, although playing time won't necessarily lead to much production.

  • Luke McCaffrey WR | WAS

    Commanders' Luke McCaffrey: Scores first NFL TD

    McCaffrey caught each of his three targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in a 41-24 win over Las Vegas on Sunday.

    With Noah Brown (groin) inactive and Deebo Samuel playing less than usual, McCaffrey split snaps with Jaylin Lane on a day when Terry McLaurin (quad) and QB Marcus Mariota were Washington's only full-time players at the skill positions. McCaffrey scored his TD from 43 yards out in garbage time, against a Las Vegas defense that may have been expecting Washington to simply run out the clock. In any case, McCafrey could get another look Week 4 at Atlanta if McLaurin's quadriceps injury proves to be a real problem.
