Robinson had two receptions (on three targets) for 44 yards in Sunday's 30-19 loss to the Buccaneers.

Robinson was demoted to No. 4 on the 49ers' depth chart with the return of Jauan Jennings (ribs) to the starting lineup Sunday. The 30-year-old Robinson still finished with his highest yardage total since joining San Francisco this past offseason after breaking off a 31-yard reception in the second quarter. Robinson logged only 13 snaps (19 percent) for a shorthanded offense Sunday, a concerning trend for a player who was expected to step into a larger role with his new club. The veteran wideout makes for a risky play Week 7 against the Falcons with such a limited role.

Paye had 2.0 sacks, three total QB hits and seven total tackles in Sunday's win over Arizona.

On a day when the Colts' front four struggled to generate a pass rush, Paye came up huge several times with key sacks. After a slow first two games, Paye has 3.0 sacks and six QB hurries in his last four games.

Ruckert wasn't targeted in Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos.

Ruckert reverted to being a non-factor in the passing game after a four-catch outing in Week 5 against the Cowboys. He was on the field for 22 of the Jets' 57 snaps on offense. Ruckert should continue to work behind Mason Taylor in Week 7against the Panthers.

Smith didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos.

Smith had one deep ball thrown his way, but Justin Fields failed to connect with the rookie speedster. That wasn't a surprising outcome considering Fields threw for only 45 yards in the game. Smith could get more involved in the offense against the Panthers in Week 7 if Garrett Wilson (knee) sits out or is limited.

Dulin had two kick returns for an average of 29.5 yards in Sunday's win over Arizona. He played just one snap on offense.

Dulin had five targets and two receptions for 55 yards the previous week against Las Vegas, but moved back to a bench role with Alec Pierce returning from a concussion. Dulin is a key player on special teams but could still be used as a fourth receiver, as he may have moved ahead of Adonai Mitchell on the depth chart. Mitchell was a healthy inactive for Sunday's game.

Johnson didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos.

Justin Fields threw for just 45 yards, so Johnson unsurprisingly failed to get involved in the low-scoring loss. Even if Garrett Wilson (knee) were to sit out Week 7 against the Panthers, Johnson's upside would be capped due to Fields' struggles throwing the ball.

Davis rushed twice for two yards and caught his only target for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 13-11 loss to the Broncos.

Davis saw typical backup running back usage, playing on 15 of the Jets' 57 snaps on offense compared to Breece Hall's 42. It would take an injury to Hall for Davis to carve out meaningful fantasy value for the winless Jets.

Rams coach Sean McVay said Monday that Corum (ankle) is day-to-day despite having been cleared to retake the field during Sunday's 17-3 win over Baltimore, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.

Corum briefly exited Sunday's win in the second quarter due to an ankle injury and was initially labeled as questionable, but he managed to return to action after halftime and finish the day with five carries for 23 yards. Only one of those carries came after his return, however. The second-year pro doesn't have clean bill of health yet, but the fact that he was able to return versus the Ravens lends credence to the notion that he'll be able to play in Week 7 against the Jaguars and handle his usual No. 2 role behind Kyren Williams. Rookie fourth-rounder Jarquez Hunter would benefit from increased opportunities if Corum were to miss any time.

Giddens did not have a carry nor was targeted in the passing game in Sunday's win over Arizona. He played just two snaps on offense.

It was surprisingly Ameer Abdullah who had both a carry and a reception in the game, although the veteran RB played only three snaps on offense. Giddens is still likely the running back who would get the most work if Jonathan Taylor were to get hurt, though Tyler Goodson has been sidelined with a groin injury and could factor in once he's healthy. Either way, Taylor is getting almost every touch in the backfield in non-blowouts, and that doesn't look likely to change.

Rams coach Sean McVay said Monday that Nacua (ankle) is "day-to-day," Tyler Dragon of USA Today reports.

The star wideout suffered a left ankle sprain during Sunday's 17-3 win at Baltimore, but Nacua being described in such a manner by McVay is a touch more optimistic than a report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network that suggested he's set to miss time. Nacua's status appears uncertain at best for Los Angeles' matchup against the Jaguars in London in Week 7, and a Week 8 bye could nudge the team in the direction of caution. McVay hasn't ruled Nacua out yet for this coming Sunday's game, Dragon confirms, so final clarity on his status likely won't arrive until the Rams have had a chance to evaluate him at practice. Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports that scans have indicated Nacua isn't dealing with a long-term injury.
