Judkins rushed 18 times for 94 yards and a touchdown while bringing in one of two targets for one yard in the Browns' 13-10 win over the Packers on Sunday.

Logging his first official NFL start, Judkins set the tone for his second productive performance in as many career games with a seven-yard gain on the Browns' first play from scrimmage. The rookie second-round pick would go on to add a game-long 38-yard run shortly before the halfway point of the fourth quarter, and he then powered in for a one-yard touchdown later in the period that erased a 10-3 deficit. Judkins already looks like a bona fide No. 1 back, and he could see his workload bump up a notch following another week of practice ahead of a Week 4 road matchup against the Lions.

Conner (right ankle) won't return to Sunday's game in San Francisco.

Conner required a cart to get off the field after he was tackled high and low by 49ers defenders on a one-yard carry early in the third quarter. His Week 3 has come to a close after tallying 37 yards from scrimmage and no TDs on 12 touches. Trey Benson is poised for most of the Cardinals' RB reps for the rest of Sunday's contest.

Ertz caught all three of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 41-24 win over the Raiders.

The veteran tight end tied Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and Luke McCaffrey for the team lead in receptions, as the Commanders did most of their damage on the ground with Marcus Mariota at quarterback instead of Jayden Daniels (knee). Ertz also saw his two-game TD streak end, and he sports a 12-128-2 line on 16 targets to begin the season. If Daniels is able to return in Week 4 against the Falcons, Ertz seems likely to have his target volume perk back up.

Lamb (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game in Chicago, Erin Andrews of Fox Sports reports.

Lamb injured his left ankle on a one-yard carry midway through the first quarter and exhibited a visible limp thereafter. He was able to return to the game for one play at the start of the second quarter but didn't look like his normal dynamic self. He then was spotted without a helmet walking slowly around the sidelines before the Cowboys ruled him out just after halftime. George Pickens is in line for more targets moving forward, while KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Tolbert and Ryan Flournoy will be the candidates to take on more snaps.

Kraft (knee) secured three of four targets for 29 yards in the Packers' 13-10 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

The knee injury Kraft suffered in Thursday's practice didn't prevent the talented tight end from suiting up, but the Packers' passing game as a whole was frequently overwhelmed by a ferocious Browns defense that brought Jordan Love down five times and picked him off once. Kraft's totals were in stark contrast to his breakout 6-124-1 line against the Commanders in Week 2, but he'll likely be healthier when the Packers pay a visit to the Cowboys for a Week 4 showdown next Sunday night.

Hurts completed 21 of 32 passes for 226 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams. He added nine rushes for 40 yards and an additional score.

Hurts hadn't produced much as a passer through two weeks of the season, but the Eagles fell behind by 19 points early in the third quarter. He went on to record passing touchdowns of 33, nine and four yards in an impressive comeback effort while also completing three additional passes of 20 yards. Contrary to his passing performances, Hurts has consistently made an impact as a rusher through three games this season, and that also continued in the win, highlighted by a tush-push touchdown midway through the first quarter. It may not always be in the most conventional way, but Hurts continues to produce as an elite fantasy quarterback.

Davis (knee) returned to action following halftime in Sunday's contest against the Broncos, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Davis was sidelined with a knee injury prior to the break, but he was able to make it back out there to open the second half. He did end up fumbling on a kickoff return, which the Broncos recovered early in the third quarter.

Mason rushed 16 times for 116 yards and two touchdowns and wasn't targeted in the Vikings' 48-10 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

Making his first start in place of Aaron Jones (IR, hamstring), Mason delivered on lofty expectations from fantasy managers with an ultra-efficient performance. The offseason addition consistently rattled off productive gains throughout the afternoon, and he found the end zone from five and four yards out in the second and third quarter, respectively. Mason shared work with Zavier Scott (eight carries) and Cam Akers (five carries), but that was at least partly a byproduct of the Vikings being able to rest starters in the second half. Mason will remain a coveted option in all formats when Minnesota faces off with the Steelers in Dublin, Ireland in Week 4.

Samuel caught two of three targets for 11 yards and carried the ball three times for 18 yards in Sunday's 41-24 win over the Raiders.

In the wake of Austin Ekeler (Achilles) being lost for the season, Samuel mixed in as part of a backfield committee, but he saw little volume either on the ground or through the air. The lack of usage may have been due largely to the fact that the Commanders were never seriously threatened in the second half, but having Marcus Mariota under center in place of Jayden Daniels (knee) likely had an impact as well. Daniels could return for a Week 4 clash with the Falcons, but even if Mariota is at QB again, Samuel could be relied on heavily if Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) is out or limited.

Williams rushed the ball 20 times for 94 yards in Sunday's 33-26 loss to the Eagles. He added two catches on three targets for 18 yards and a touchdown.

Williams easily led the Rams backfield in carries, but Blake Corum continued to carve out a role in the offense with eight rushing attempts. That didn't affect Williams' performance in Week 3, as he still managed a season high in both carries and yardage. Williams also made an impact as a receiver for the first time on the campaign, catching a 10-yard touchdown to kick off the third quarter. While Williams may be losing some of his workload, the Rams offense should be efficient enough for him to remain a reliable fantasy contributor moving forward.
