  • Jahan Dotson WR | PHI

    Eagles' Jahan Dotson: Just one catch in Week 2

    Dotson was held to one catch for four yards in Sunday's win over the Chiefs.

    Dotson was the Eagles' leading receiver in Week 1, catching three passes for 59 yards, but his Week 2 performance is probably more in line with what can be expected going forward. Outside of a Week 18 game in which the Eagles rested their starters, Dotson averaged less than a catch per game last year, and with A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith still ahead of him on the depth chart, that's unlikely to change.

  • Rams' Jordan Whittington: Makes big grab late

    Whittington secured both of his targets for 42 yards during Sunday's 33-19 win against the Titans.

    With the Rams looking for insurance midway through the fourth quarter, Whittington managed to find a seam and grab a dart from Matthew Stafford for a 40-yard reception, which led to a Blake Corum rushing touchdown a few plays later. Whittington has seemingly pushed past Tutu Atwell on the depth chart, but Puka Nacua and Davante Adams will likely command the majority of Stafford's attention barring an injury. However, Whittington has shown he's capable of being a primary target (13-151-0 receiving line over two games as a starter last season), which could make him an intriguing fantasy option if Nacua (who missed six games due to injury last season) or Adams (who missed four) were to miss any time.

  • Chris Moore WR | WAS

    Commanders' Chris Moore: Moves up to active roster

    The Commanders signed Moore from their practice squad to their active roster Monday.

    Moore was elevated for Week 1 against the Giants and caught his only target for a 34-yard reception. He didn't get elevated for Week 2, but he will now get a spot on the 53-man roster after Washington placed Austin Ekeler (Achilles) and Deatrich Wise (quadriceps) on injured reserve Monday. Moore will likely work as both a depth wideout and a special-teamer.

  • Alex Bachman WR | LV

    Raiders' Alex Bachman: Elevated for MNF

    The Raiders elevated Bachman from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Monday night's game against the Chargers.

    It's the second elevation to the active roster for Bachman, who played two offensive snaps and failed to haul in his lone target during the Raiders' Week 1 win over the Patriots. The 29-year-old wideout will get another shot at playing time Monday and will likely see most of his snaps on special teams.

  • 49ers' Jauan Jennings: Day-to-day with ankle issue

    San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Jennings came out of Sunday's 26-21 win over the Saints with an ankle injury, Jennifer Lee Chan of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Per Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com, Jennings is viewed as day-to-day as this weekend's game against the Cardinals approaches. Jennings, who had been nursing a shoulder injury heading into Week 2, parlayed his 87 percent snap share into a 5-89-1 receiving line on a team-high 10 targets in the victory over New Orleans.

  • Dolphins' Malik Washington: Estimated as limited in practice

    Washington (thumb) was listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports.

    Washington was third among Miami's wideouts with 35 (of a possible 57) snaps on offense during Sunday's 33-27 loss to the Patriots en route to catching one of his two targets for two yards and carrying three times for 23 yards. As long as Tyreek Hill (seven targets) and Jaylen Waddle (six targets) are healthy, however, both Washington and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine will remain speculative fantasy lineup options ahead of Thursday's game against the Bills.

  • Tez Johnson WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Tez Johnson: Healthy scratch Week 2

    Johnson (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game against the Texans, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Johnson saw eight snaps on offense but failed to haul in his lone target during the Buccaneers' Week 1 win over the Falcons. The rookie seventh-rounder will observe Monday's game in street clothes, and whether he's active on gameday will likely depend on the health of the Bucs' receiving corps and return specialists. Johnson's next chance to suit up is Week 3 against the Jets on Sunday.

  • Isaac TeSlaa WR | DET

    Lions' Isaac TeSlaa: Secures impressive catch in victory

    TeSlaa caught his only target for 29 yards in Sunday's 52-21 win over the Bears.

    TeSlaa was expected to see an increase in workload with the offense Week 2, and he saw his offensive snap count rise from three snaps in Week 1 to 17 against Chicago on Sunday. The wide receiver once again provided a highlight reel catch, securing a leaping one-handed snag up the sideline for 29 yards to get the Lions inside the five-yard line with less than 20 seconds left in the first half. Through two games in 2025, TeSlaa has made two acrobatic catches on the two targets he's garnered, and he'll keep earning more opportunities if he continues to deliver results for Detroit. Fellow wide receiver Kalif Raymond saw his offensive snaps drop from 42 in Week 1 to 32 versus the Bears, so TeSlaa may already be challenging for the No. 3 role behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams.

  • Kalif Raymond WR | DET

    Lions' Kalif Raymond: One catch in dominant win

    Raymond caught his only target for 14 yards and turned one carry into nine yards in Sunday's 52-21 win over the Bears.

    Raymond once again was quiet Week 2, playing just 32 offensive snaps in Detroit's dominant victory. The wide receiver snagged his only catch of the day on the team's third possession of the contest, but he did garner 15 more offensive snaps than rookie Isaac TeSlaa, so Raymond does still appear to be the No. 3 option at his position behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. With many mouths to feed on offense in Detroit, Raymond doesn't offer much weekly upside for fantasy managers, and his greatest impact for the team comes as a punt returner.

  • Jalin Hyatt WR | NYG

    Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Doesn't see field again Week 2

    Hyatt did not log any snaps Sunday in an overtime loss to Dallas.

    Hyatt was the only one of New York's active players who did not play at all in the defeat. It was the second straight week that Hyatt went unused, so it's clear early on that the Giants don't see him as a big part of their offense. Darius Slayton and Malik Nabers logged all but one of New York's offensive snaps in the loss, and Wan'Dale Robinson was on the field for 70 percent of the plays, while both Beaux Collins and Gunner Olszewski participated only on special teams. With that in mind, Hyatt hasn't necessarily slipped below fourth in the pecking order, but the team simply hasn't cared to extend its WR personnel beyond its top three options.
