Reynolds caught three of four targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 37-22 loss to the Cowboys. He also caught a two-point conversion.

While his numbers were modest, Reynolds was the only New York wideout aside from Garrett Wilson (6-71-1 on 10 targets) to catch more than one pass or see more than two targets on the afternoon. The 30-year-old journeyman is on his sixth team in the last six seasons, but there could be an opportunity with the Jets to carve out a consistent role, as the team lacks downfield threats aside from Wilson and rookie tight end Mason Taylor. Reynolds will look to build on this performance in Week 6 against the Broncos.

Samuel finished with eight receptions on 11 targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Chargers.

Samuel overcame a heel injury during the practice week to lead a shorthanded Washington receiver room Sunday. The star acquisition led his new club in targets, receptions and receiving yards while catching QB Jayden Daniels' only passing touchdown of the contest. The 29-year-old has turned back the clock in 2025, generating 346 yards of offense and four total touchdowns through five games. Even if No. 1 wideout Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) returns against the Bears next Monday, Samuel's consistent production makes him a must-start asset in fantasy for Week 6.

Flournoy caught six of nine targets for 114 yards in Sunday's 37-22 win over the Jets. He added 10 rushing yards on two carries.

With CeeDee Lamb (ankle) and KaVontae Turpin (foot) both unavailable, Flournoy stepped up to lead the Cowboys in receiving yards while topping the century mark for the first time in his career -- in fact, the second-year wideout's previous high was only 41 yards. It's not yet clear whether either Lamb or Turpin, or both, will be able to return in Week 6 against the Panthers, but Flournoy made a strong case Sunday to move up to the WR4 or even WR3 spot in the Dallas offense.

Chase recorded six receptions on 10 targets for 110 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 37-24 loss to the Lions.

Chase and the entire Bengals' offense got off to a slow start, as he had only four catches on eight targets for 31 yards at halftime. That changed quickly in the final two quarters, as Chase took his two targets for 15- and 64-yard touchdowns. The latter was particularly impressive, as he beat Amik Robertson on a double move to get wide open behind the defense. Chase's weekly outlook is hurt by the subpar play of Jake Browning, though Chase is talented enough to overcome the poor offensive environment and showcased that ability in Sunday's loss.

Pickens caught two of four targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-22 win over the Jets.

The game was more lopsided than the final score might suggest -- Dallas took a 30-6 lead into the fourth quarter -- and Pickens wasn't needed for much volume as a result. He made his few looks count, however, burning Sauce Gardner for a 43-yard TD in the third quarter. Since CeeDee Lamb (ankle) got hurt early in Week 3, Pickens has erupted for a 15-259-4 line on 24 targets as Dak Prescott's most dangerous downfield threat. Whether he's able to continue that hot streak in Week 6 against the Panthers may depend largely on Lamb's health.

St. Brown recorded eight receptions on nine targets for 100 yards in Sunday's 37-24 win over the Bengals.

St. Brown continued his excellent start to the season, leading the Lions in all receiving stats. He saw the majority of his volume in the first half, but his longest catch of the day was a 26-yard grab early in the fourth quarter. The only shortcoming was that St. Brown failed to find the end zone for the first time since Week 1, but he balanced that out by recording his second 100-yard receiving game of the campaign.

Shaheed caught four of five targets for 114 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-14 win over the Giants.

Most of that production came on a single play -- an 87-yard catch-and-run in the second quarter that Shaheed took to the house. The fourth-year wideout hadn't exceeded 52 receiving yards in a game this year prior to Sunday, and second-year QB Spencer Rattler may not be able to find his deep threat so easily against more competent secondaries, but it was still an encouraging sign for Shaheed and the Saints' aerial attack. He'll look for another big play or two in Week 6 against the Patriots.

Olave caught seven of 11 targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 26-14 win over the Giants.

The catches and targets were both team highs, but Olave's output was overshadowed by an 87-yard TD by Rashid Shaheed in the second quarter that sparked the Saints' offense to life. Olave remains the the top option for QB Spencer Rattler, but his volume hasn't resulted in any big performances yet in 2025 -- despite seeing double-digit targets in four of five games and 53 looks in total, he sports just a 33-244-1 line, and Sunday's 59 receiving yards were actually his season high. He'll try to make a bigger impact in Week 6 against the Patriots.

Pittman brought in five of six targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in the Colts' 40-6 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

The veteran receiver finished second on the Colts in receptions during the lopsided victory, and although he averaged only 7.8 yards per catch, he rounded out his production nicely with a four-yard scoring grab late in the first half. Pittman has at least five receptions in four of the first five contests of the season, and although he continues to be used primarily in a short-area role, he's already recorded four touchdown catches, one more than he tallied across 16 regular-season games in 2024. Pittman will look to continue adding to that total in a Week 6 home matchup against the Cardinals.

Robinson caught five of seven targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 26-14 loss to the Saints. He added two rushing yards on his only carry.

Jaxson Dart wasn't able to stretch the field much in his first game working without Malik Nabers (knee), and while tight ends Theo Johnson (6-33-2 on seven targets) and Daniel Bellinger (4-52-0 on four targets) saw more volume than usual, Robinson was able to get his share of those short passes as well. The veteran slot receiver has caught multiple passes in four of five games so far in 2025, posting a 23-267-1 line on 34 targets, and he should continue to have a solid PPR floor given the team's lack of other receiving options. However, Robinson may not have much of a ceiling in a Week 6 clash with the Eagles.
