  • Bucky Irving RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Tallies 165 total yards in loss

    Irving rushed 15 times for 63 yards and brought in all five targets for 102 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 31-25 loss to the Eagles on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

    Irving finished as the Buccaneers' leader in both rushing and receiving yards, the latter largely the result of his impressive 72-yard catch-and-run touchdown down the left sideline on a broken play late in the third quarter. Game script capped Irving's opportunities as a runner somewhat throughout the afternoon, but he still cleared the 60-yard mark on the ground for the third consecutive contest. Irving has no less than four receptions in any contest as well, giving him an outstanding fantasy floor in virtually any scenario heading into a tough Week 5 road trip to Seattle next Sunday afternoon.

  • James Cook III RB | BUF

    Bills' James Cook: Eclipses century mark in win

    Cook rushed 22 times for 117 yards and a touchdown while bringing in three of four targets for 18 yards in the Bills' 31-19 win over the Saints on Sunday.

    The Bills arguably underperformed most of the afternoon given their status as significant home favorites, but Cook's play didn't disappoint. The speedy back was over the 100-yard mark on the ground for the third straight game, and he extended his season-opening streak of rushing touchdowns to four games with a one-yard scoring run late in the first quarter. Cook is averaging 5.4 yards per carry overall, even when factoring in an average of 3.4 yards per tote Week 1 against the Ravens. The versatile fourth-year pro also has multiple catches in three of the first four games heading into a Week 5 AFC East home showdown against the Patriots next Sunday night.

  • Jalen Hurts QB | PHI

    Eagles' Jalen Hurts: Well-balanced line in win

    Hurts completed 15 of 24 passes for 130 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions while adding nine rushes for 62 yards in the Eagles' 31-25 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.

    The Eagles' air attack was back to low-volume mode Sunday, despite the Buccaneers eventually making matters interesting in the second half. Hurts had his share of misfires against an aggressive Tampa Bay defense, but he connected on two nifty touchdown passes to Dallas Goedert at the shadow of the goal line and also mustered a team- and co-season-high rushing yardage total. After not throwing a touchdown pass in either of the first two games of the season, Hurts has bounced back to toss five in the last pair of contests, and he's yet to throw an interception despite a couple of close calls Sunday. Hurts will take on the unenviable task of facing the Broncos defense when Denver pays a visit next Sunday afternoon for a Week 5 interconference showdown.

  • Kyle Pitts TE | ATL

    Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Snags first TD in 2025

    Pitts caught all five of his targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Commanders.

    The tight end put together his best game of the season as QB Michael Penix posted career-best passing numbers, with Pitts hauling in his first TD of the year on a seven-yard toss in the third quarter. Pitts has seen at least five targets in every game so far and delivered a 20-205-1 line on 24 targets heading into Atlanta's Week 5 bye, putting him on pace for his best campaign since his stunning NFL debut in 2021.

  • Chris Olave WR | NO

    Saints' Chris Olave: Catches TD, throws INT

    Olave hauled in three of six targets for 20 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 31-19 defeat versus the Bills.

    Olave logged his first touchdown of the season with a three-yard scoring grab in the third quarter. This was the silver lining, as he posted season lows in catches, targets and yards, while the Saints had more rushing attempts (34) than passing attempts (28) for the first time this season. Olave also threw an interception on his first career passing attempt. The fifth-year wideout tried to hit quarterback Spencer Rattler on a Philly Special-style trick play in the red zone, but the Bills sniffed out the play and picked it off to end the second quarter. Olave has shown good PPR value through four weeks, averaging 6.5 catches on 10.5 targets per game, but he's yet to record over 57 receiving yards in any contest. He'll look to record double-digit targets for the fourth time this season during New Orleans' next game versus the Giants on Sunday, Oct. 5.

  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Breaks out in Sunday's win

    London caught eight of 10 targets for 110 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Commanders.

    The fourth-year wideout didn't reach 60 receiving yards or find the end zone in the first three weeks of the season, but London broke out in Week 4, highlighting his performance with a five-yard TD reception from Michael Penix in the first quarter. London led the Falcons in targets -- no one else got more than five -- as well as catches and receiving yards, and he remains the unquestioned top option in the team's passing game headed into a Week 5 bye, ahead of a tough Week 6 battle against the Bills.

  • Nico Collins WR | HOU

    Texans' Nico Collins: Posts 79 yards against Titans

    Collins recorded four receptions on six targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Titans.

    Collins didn't dominate targets in his typical fashion Sunday, as four pass catchers logged between four and six targets. He still easily paced the Texans in yardage thanks to long gains of 37 and 22 yards to account for the majority of his production. Even with an underachieving Houston offense, Collins has found a way to be productive early this season by scoring a touchdown or topping 75 receiving yards in each of his last three games.

  • Tyler Allgeier RB | ARI

    Falcons' Tyler Allgeier: Hits paydirt against Washington

    Allgeier carried the ball 16 times for 51 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Commanders.

    Bijan Robinson had a massive day with 21 touches, a career-high 181 scrimmage yards and a rushing TD of his own, but Allgeier still made an impact with a 15-yard score late in the third quarter. It was the fourth-year RB's second touchdown of the season, and despite his backup role he's been able to carve out some fantasy value behind Robinson, turning 41 carries through four weeks into 155 rushing yards. The Falcons will be on bye in Week 5, but Allgeier's volume in Week 6 could depend on whether the team can keep things close against the Bills.

  • Falcons' Michael Penix: Strong bounceback in Week 4 win

    Penix completed 20 of 26 passes for 313 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Commanders. He added two rushing yards on four carries.

    After a rough Week 3 performance on the road in Carolina, Penix returned home in Week 4 and looked much more composed, topping his prior career high in yardage by one as he delivered his first multi-TD effort of 2025. The second-year QB hit Drake London for a five-yard score in the first quarter and Kyle Pitts for a seven-yard touchdown in the third, while both London and Bijan Robinson eclipsed the century mark in receiving yards, during a game in which Atlanta never trailed. Penix will get a week off for the Falcons' bye before facing a tough test in Week 6 against the Bills.

  • Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Two touchdowns in blowout win

    St. Brown recorded seven receptions on seven targets for 70 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Browns.

    St. Brown was the only Detroit pass catcher to post a notable line in Sunday's blowout win, accounting for seven of Jared Goff's 16 completions. He helped set up the team's first touchdown of the day with a 25-yard catch before turning in a pair of his own scores from two and eight yards away. St. Brown now has six touchdowns across four games while recording at least 70 receiving yards in each of his last three contests.
