  • Najee Harris RB | NYG

    Chargers' Najee Harris: Hurts ankle Sunday

    Harris was carted off the field during Sunday's game against the Broncos, per Daniel Popper of The Athletic, after sustaining an ankle injury.

    Prior to that, Harris carried six times for 28 yards. In his absence, Omarion Hampton and Hassan Haskins are available to handle the Chargers' Week 3 backfield duties.

  • Josh Jacobs RB | GB

    Packers' Josh Jacobs: Stonewalled on ground in upset loss

    Jacobs rushed 16 times for 30 yards and brought in five of nine targets for 44 yards in the Packers' 13-10 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

    Jacobs got a first-hand taste of a run defense that has essentially been the AFC version of his own team's unit in the early part of the season. The talented back only mustered a long gain of seven yards, and the Packers ultimately began swapping out targets for some of his normal allotment of rush attempts, leading to season highs in both receptions and receiving yards. Following the shocking upset, Jacobs and his teammates will look to rebound in an intriguing Week 4 road matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday night.

  • Geno Smith QB | NYJ

    Raiders' Geno Smith: Tosses three TDs in Sunday's loss

    Smith completed 19 of 29 passes for 289 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 41-24 loss to the Commanders. He added five rushing yards on two carries.

    All three TDs went to Tre Tucker, as the duo connected on 10-yard scores in the second and fourth quarters before Smith found his speedy wideout for a 61-yard strike late in the game as the Raiders tried to mount a comeback. It was a strong bounce-back performance from Smith after he got picked off three times by the Chargers in Week 2, but the result was the same for Las Vegas. Smith will try to guide his team back into the win column in Week 4 against an injury-ravaged Bears defense.

  • Mekhi Becton OT | GB

    Chargers' Mekhi Becton: Questionable to return Sunday

    Becton (head) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Broncos.

    Becton suffered a head injury in the second quarter, and his status for the rest of the game is now up in the air. Jamaree Salyer has taken over at right guard versus Denver.

  • Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Five catches in Week 3 win

    Jefferson brought in five of seven targets for 75 yards in the Vikings' 48-10 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    The Vikings obviously didn't need to do much through the air after a certain point in the lopsided victory, but Jefferson managed to still put together a respectable fantasy day. The perennial Pro Bowler tied T.J. Hockenson for the team lead in receptions while also setting the pace in receiving yards and targets and working with Carson Wentz as his quarterback. Jefferson has yet to eclipse the 100-yard mark through three games this season, but he's accrued an impressive 8-156-0 line over the last pair of contests heading into a Week 4 matchup against the Steelers in Ireland next Sunday.

  • Stefon Diggs WR | WAS

    Patriots' Stefon Diggs: Three grabs against Pittsburgh

    Diggs caught all three of his targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Steelers.

    The veteran wideout continues to have a quiet start to his Patriots tenure. Diggs has yet to reach 60 receiving yards in a game or score a touchdown through three weeks, and Sunday's three targets represented his lowest volume yet. The 31-year-old simply may not be the same player he was prior to the ACL injury that cut short his 2024 campaign with the Texans, but Diggs will look to continue building chemistry with Drake Maye in Week 4 against the Panthers.

  • Nick Bosa DE | SF

    49ers' Nick Bosa: Exits with knee injury

    Bosa is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals due to a knee injury, Nick Wagoner of ESPN.com reports.

    Bosa appeared to suffer a knee injury late in the first quarter after being hit hard on a double team, per Wagoner. Bosa was in the blue medical tent before departing for the locker room, where he will be evaluated to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Yetur Gross-Matos, Sam Okuayinonu and Bryce Huff will see more snaps at defensive end for as long as Bosa is out of the game.

  • Hunter Henry TE | NE

    Patriots' Hunter Henry: Two TDs in Week 3 loss

    Henry caught eight of 11 targets for 90 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 21-14 loss to the Steelers.

    The veteran tight end's connection with QB Drake Maye was just about the only thing working for the Patriots on the afternoon. No other New England player caught more than four passes (Mack Hollins) or had more than 38 receiving yards (Rhamondre Stevenson), and the backfield combined to lose an incredible four fumbles -- two by Stevenson, and one each by Maye and Antonio Gibson. Henry will take 13-165-2 line on 22 targets through three games into a Week 4 meeting with a Panthers defense that has looked vulnerable to TEs so far.

  • Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Three scores against Tennessee

    Taylor rushed the ball 17 times for 102 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 41-20 win over the Titans. He added three receptions on four targets for 16 yards.

    Despite his final line, the Titans did a good job of limiting Taylor for much of the game. He punched in a pair of scores from one yard away in the first and fourth quarters. Taylor also broke the contest open and accounted for a significant portion of his yardage with an impressive 46-yard touchdown late in the third quarter, during which he broke through several tackles and evaded additional defenders with a spin move. Taylor now has four total touchdowns on the season and has topped 100 rushing yards in consecutive contests.

  • Bijan Robinson RB | ATL

    Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Solid all-around game in loss

    Robinson rushed 13 times for 72 yards while bringing in five of six targets for 39 yards in the Falcons' 30-0 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

    A field day was expected for the Falcons' ground attack going in, but the Panthers defense completely turned that expectation on its head with a surprisingly dominant performance. Robinson still managed to churn out a solid effort that highlighted both his rushing and receiving acumen, but his workload on the ground was certainly more sparse than it would have been had the Falcons made good on their status as solid favorites. Robinson will next take aim at the Commanders defense when Washington pays Atlanta a visit for a Week 4 matchup next Sunday.
