Mooney secured four of 11 targets for 44 yards in the Falcons' 30-0 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

While it wasn't a very efficient performance, Mooney did draw a team-high number of targets and finished tied for second in receptions while also slotting in as the runner-up in receiving yards. Mooney has multiple receptions in each of his first two games after missing Week 1 due to a shoulder injury, and he'll next face off with the Commanders in a Week 4 home matchup.

Carter returned two punts for 15 yards and one kickoff for 27 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Packers.

Carter was removed from last week's game due to a concussion and missed the first two practices during the preparation for Week 3. He's returned six kickoffs for 145 yards and five punts for 56 yards through three weeks.

Franklin had two receptions on four targets for eight yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Chargers.

Franklin followed up the best performance of his young career against the Colts in Week 2 with an absolute stinker against the Chargers. The 2024 fourth-round selection still finished in a tie for second in team targets with Marvin Mims, but both youngsters paled in comparison to No. 1 wideout Courtland Sutton's monster 6-118-1 receiving line Sunday. Franklin still provides some good upside in a soft matchup against the Bengals next Monday if managers can look past his dud in Week 3.

Davis did not play on offense and returned one kickoff for 28 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over Green Bay.

Davis was called up from the practice squad for the day, giving the offense a sixth wideout, but he was one of two receivers who didn't get on the field with the offense. He may have been added so that the Browns wouldn't feel the need to expose Jerome Ford or Isaiah Bond on special teams.

Kupp had two receptions on three targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 44-13 win over New Orleans.

Kupp reverted to his low-usage role after commanding nine targets in a Week 2 win over Las Vegas. The veteran wideout finished third in targets, receptions and yardage for the Seahawks behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba (5-96-1) and Tory Horton (3-32-1). Perhaps Kupp can get more involved in Week 4 against a familiar NFC West opponent in the Cardinals on Thursday Night Football.

Thrash caught two of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Packers.

Thrash, a fifth-round draft pick in 2024, was hoping to make a leap in his second season, but he's no better than fourth on the depth chart. He opened the season competing with Isaiah Bond as the No. 3, but Thrash played just 12 snaps Sunday compared to Bond's 43. Thrash has four catches for 18 yards through three weeks.

Pittman recorded six catches on six targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 41-20 win over the Titans.

Daniel Jones distributed targets fairly evenly, as four Colts pass catchers were targeted at least four times. Pittman led the way in every statistic, highlighted by a 20-yard touchdown grab early in the third quarter and a 17-yard gain later in the same quarter. While Pittman has the potential to be the leader of the receiving corps, targets have been relatively evenly distributed through three weeks, so Pittman will need to rely on efficiency to deliver strong statistical lines in most weeks.

Bond caught two of four targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over Green Bay.

Bond made his first start of the season and was given 43 snaps, nearly as many he had over the first two games. He's gone from 21 snaps in Week 1 to 28 in Week 2 before prior to a big jump in usage Sunday. Bond has emerged as the Browns' No. 3 wideout, which might normally hold value but not necessarily on an offense that has managed to score only 15 points per game.

Pearsall racked up eight receptions on 11 targets for 117 yards in Sunday's 16-15 victory over the Cardinals.

Pearsall was the last man standing for the 49ers' starting passing offense with Brock Purdy (toe/shoulder), George Kittle (hamstring) and Jauan Jennings (ankle) all missing Sunday's tilt. The 24-year-old Pearsall was up to the task, finishing as the club's leading receiver while making several key drive-extending grabs. Expect Pearsall to continue spearheading San Francisco's depleted receiver room -- potentially with his starting QB back under center -- against the Jaguars next Sunday.

Brown recorded six receptions on 10 targets for 109 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.

The Eagles had taken to the air sparingly in the first two weeks of this season, and Brown entered the game with 35 total yards from scrimmage. However, Philadelphia fell behind early against the Rams, and Jalen Hurts had to attempt 32 passes in a comeback effort, allowing Brown to get more opportunity. He turned that into several highlight-worthy plays, including a 38-yard catch deep down the right sideline early in the third quarter and a nine-yard touchdown catch one possession later. It's no surprise that Brown was productive when given the chance, and the Eagles could be pushed once again in a Week 4 matchup against the Bucs.
