Flowers recorded seven receptions on eight targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 37-20 loss to Kansas City.

Flowers made some big plays early, tallying catches of 21 and 17 yards on Baltimore's first two possessions. The entire offense struggled after Lamar Jackson (hamstring) left the game late in the third quarter, but the wideout was able to pad his stats in garbage time with Cooper Rush targeting him five times on a drive early in the final quarter, which Flowers turned into four catches for 21 yards. While the Ravens are typically known for their run game, the passing attack has been the key to their offensive success so far this season, so Jackson's health ahead of a Week 5 clash with the Texans could have a big impact on Flowers' floor and ceiling.

Szmyt made one of two field-goal attempts and connected on his only PAT in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Lions.

Szmyt made a 33-yard field goal and missed a 56-yard attempt wide left in the third quarter. The kicker has now gone 4-for-6 on field-goal tries, including 1-for-3 from 50-plus yards, while making five of six extra-point attempts over four games this season.

Stafford completed 29 of 41 pass attempts for 375 yards and three touchdowns while taking four carries for as many yards in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Colts.

Stafford pulled a vintage performance out of his bag of tricks Sunday, producing a stat line we haven't seen regularly since his prime years in Detroit. The Rams' offense hit the skids in the second half, resulting in a five-drive stretch that produced four consecutive three-and-outs followed by a Kyren Williams' fumble. That's when Stafford took it upon himself to lead an 11-play, 90-yard touchdown drive, immediately following it up with an 88-yard huge play to Tutu Atwell on the ensuing possession to seal the win for Los Angeles. The 37-year-old is proving that he still has plenty left in the tank by throwing for 1,114 yards and eight touchdowns to two interceptions through four starts in 2025. Up next for Stafford is a home matchup on a short week against the 49ers on Thursday Night Football in Week 5.

Hooker (toe) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday night's contest against the Packers, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

Hooker suffered a toe injury in the second quarter, and he will now be sidelined for the remainder of the team's Week 4 contest. The safety registered four total tackles (two solo) before exiting the game. In his place, Markquese Bell and Juanyeh Thomas stand to operate in more significant roles in the secondary.

Gibson rushed six times for 27 yards and a touchdown and returned one kickoff for 28 yards in the Patriots' 42-13 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

The veteran back retained his role in the Patriots' running back committee despite a Week 3 fumble, logging three fewer carries than Rhamondre Stevenson and one less tote than TreVeyon Henderson. Gibson also scored his first touchdown since Week 13 of last season on a one-yard run with just under two minutes remaining in the first half. He has logged between five and seven rush attempts in each of the last three games, and although he surprisingly has just two targets so far in 2025, Gibson seems to have a relatively secure complementary role in the backfield ahead of a Week 5 road showdown with the Bills next Sunday night.

Dicker made a field goal and an extra point in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Giants.

The kicker's field goal came from 43 yards in the second quarter. Dicker has made all eight of his field-goal tries and all eight of his extra-point attempts this season so far. He'll try to keep it going next week against the Commanders.

Wyatt (knee) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday night's contest in Dallas, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

Wyatt suffered a knee injury in the first half of the game, which will now officially bring his night to an end. The defensive tackle secured one tackle in the contest prior to his departure, and in his absence, Karl Brooks and Nazir Stackhouse will continue to see an increase in workload on Green Bay's defensive line.

Purdy completed 22 of 38 pass attempts for 309 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions while rushing twice for 13 yards in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the Jaguars. He also lost a fumble.

Purdy returned from a two-game absence due to shoulder and toe injuries Sunday, producing mixed results in a failed comeback attempt. The 49ers' quarterback showed no limitations, slinging the ball with ease, and while the three turnovers may be concerning at first glance, his first interception was the result of a bobbled catch attempt while the second was tipped at the line of scrimmage. Despite a depleted group of pass-catchers, Purdy's could deliver similarly gaudy totals in Week 5 as the 49ers attempt to keep up with the Rams' high-powered offense on Thursday Night Football.

Tremble brought in five of eight targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Panthers' 42-13 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

Tremble paced the Panthers in receptions while sharing the team lead in targets as he filled in for Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle), who was inactive. Tremble also recorded his first touchdown reception since Week 18 of last season on a seven-yard pass from Bryce Young to cap off the opening possession of the contest. The fifth-year tight end had four catches over the first two games of the season while Sanders was fully healthy, so if his teammate returns for a favorable Week 5 home matchup against the Dolphins next Sunday, Tremble likely won't see enough volume to have utility in most fantasy formats.

Borregales made all six extra-point attempts in Sunday's 42-13 win over the Panthers.

The kicker did not attempt a field goal in the win. Borregales has now hit all eight extra-point tries the last two weeks since missing two in New England's Week 2 win over the Dolphins. The sixth-round pick in the 2025 draft is also four of five on field-goal tries this season.
