Johnson caught three of five targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Chargers.

While the volume was modest, the tight end tied with Wan'Dale Robinson for the team lead in targets, and Johnson was on the other end of Jaxson Dart's first career passing TD when he hauled in a three-yard score in the third quarter. The Giants' passing game may have lost Malik Nabers for the season to a torn ACL on Sunday, and while that would be bad news for the offense as a whole, it could lead to more looks for Johnson. Johnson will take a 9-66-1 line on 15 targets into a Week 5 tilt against the Saints.

Williams rushed 13 times for 77 yards and caught three of four targets for 17 yards while coughing up a fumble in Sunday's 27-20 win over the Colts.

Williams' fumble early in the fourth quarter didn't end up costing his team a shot at victory, but it put a stink on a fantasy score that didn't feature a trip to the end zone. The fourth-year back still finished as the Rams' leading rusher as per usual while out-touching backup Blake Corum 16 to 11 with far better efficiency. Williams has helped offset Corum's increased usage by averaging a healthy 4.5 yards per tote. The 24-year-old Williams will continue spearheading Los Angeles' rushing attack when the Rams host the 49ers on Thursday Night Football in Week 5.

Robinson caught three of five targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Giants.

The five targets tied for the team lead with tight end Theo Johnson, but it was still disappointing volume for Robinson in Jaxson Dart's first career NFL start under center, especially considering that Malik Nabers (knee) was knocked out of the game in the second quarter. Nabers could have a torn ACL which would sideline him for the remainder of 2025, a brutal blow to the Giants offense that would leave Robinson and Darius Slayton atop the depth chart at WR. Robinson will take an 18-237-1 line on 27 targets into a Week 5 clash with the Saints, but the bulk of that production came Week 2 with Russell Wilson at the helm of the offense.

Slayton caught three of four targets for 44 yards in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Chargers.

While the volume and production were modest, Slayton wound up leading the Giants in receptions and receiving yards in Jaxson Dart's first career start at QB, as Malik Nabers (knee) was knocked out of the game in the second quarter. Nabers' injury is feared to be a torn ACL which would end his season, a development that would make Slayton the team's top downfield option, albeit in arguably the weakest wide receiver group in the league. The veteran WR will take a 9-135-0 line on 13 targets into a Week 5 contest against the Saints.

Chubb rushed the ball 13 times for 47 yards in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Titans. He added two receptions for 15 yards.

Chubb was the first running back to get a touch for Houston, but he alternated drives with Woody Marks in the first half before the duo shared drives and split work evenly in the final two quarters. Chubb was effective for long stretches of the game, tallying six carries or receptions of at least six yards. However, he was out-touched by Marks for the first time this season and could continue to cede work as the season progresses, although the blowout nature of Sunday's contest may have contributed to the rookie seeing more volume.

Skattebo carried the ball 25 times for 79 yards and caught both his targets for 11 yards in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Chargers. He also ran for a two-point conversion.

The rookie RB become the focal point of the Giants offense with Jaxson Dart getting his first career NFL start under center and Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) sidelined, with Skattebo's 27 touches representing a huge increase on the career-high 16 he got last week. That volume on the ground came in a contest that New York led from its opening possession, however, a game script that may not be repeated too often in 2025. Devin Singletary got seven carries as the backup with Tracy out, but Skattebo should remain the unquestioned top option in the backfield Week 5 against the Saints.

Egbuka brought in four of 10 targets for 101 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for no gain during the Buccaneers' 31-25 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

The rookie tied for the team lead in targets with Chris Godwin (ankle) in the veteran's season debut, and Egbuka flashed with a 77-yard touchdown grab early in the third quarter. The 2025 first-round pick's yardage total was also a career-high figure, and his TD was already his fourth in four NFL games. Egbuka's target total has risen in each contest, and that trend could continue in a Week 5 road matchup against the Seahawks with Mike Evans (hamstring) expected to remain on the shelf.

Stokes is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears due to a knee injury.

Stokes appeared to suffer the injury in the fourth quarter and will have his injury evaluated by trainers to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game late. Darien Porter and Jamal Adams could see additional work in the secondary if Stokes is unable to return.

Dart completed 13 of 20 passes for 111 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Chargers. He added 54 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries.

Making his first NFL start, the 25th overall pick in the 2025 Draft led the Giants to their first win of the year, scampering for a 15-yard TD on the team's first drive and then hitting Theo Johnson for a three-yard score -- Dart's first career passing touchdown -- in the third quarter. Despite the positive result in the standings, it was not an entirely encouraging performance from the young QB. New York's porous offensive line allowed Dart to be sacked five times and take plenty of other hits, and, per Jori Epstein of Yahoo Sports, he had to leave the field briefly to be checked for a concussion. In worse news for the Giants and Dart, Malik Nabers left the game in the second quarter with a knee injury that's feared to be a torn ACL. If Nabers is lost for the season, or misses any time at all, Dart would have arguably the weakest group of pass catchers in the league at his disposal for a trip to New Orleans in Week 5.

Godwin (ankle) secured three of 10 targets for 26 yards in the Buccaneers' 31-25 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Godwin made his season debut after completing his recovery from last October's ankle dislocation, and despite concerns he'd be eased into action, the veteran wideout finished tied for the team lead in targets with Emeka Egbuka. Godwin's inefficiency wasn't unexpected considering the coverage skills of the Eagles' secondary and his long layoff, but the immediate attention from Baker Mayfield was also warranted due to the absence of Mike Evans (hamstring). With Evans expected to miss multiple games, Godwin is likely to remain heavily involved in the passing attack in a Week 5 road trip to Seattle.
