Johnson rushed four times for 16 yards in Sunday's 23-12 win over the Jets. He added one catch for seven yards on one target.

The Bears thoroughly dominated the Jets in time of possession and ran a whopping 93 offensive plays to New York's 34. Johnson saw 10 snaps on offense, as Kyle Monangai (thumb) and D'Andre Swift, who dealt with a knee injury during the practice week, combined to rush 45 times for 204 yards and two touchdowns. Johnson would be in line for additional work if Monangai needs to miss any game action.

Badie carried twice for seven yards, caught both of his targets for 32 yards, ran in a two-point conversion and returned one kickoff for 21 yards in a loss to San Francisco in Week 4.

Badie chipped in for the Broncos in multiple facets. The highlights of his performance were a 25-yard catch-and-run in the first quarter and a two-point conversion on a run up the middle in the fourth quarter. Badie doesn't have much fantasy value given the low volume of touches he gets on a weekly basis, so it would likely take injuries ahead of him on the RB depth chart for Badie to become an intriguing waiver-wire addition.

Johnson caught two passes for 17 yards during Tampa Bay's loss versus the Packers on Sunday.

Johnson hauled in a season-high two receptions during the loss but still continues to see limited playing time as the team's No. 4 receiver. It would likely take an injury to either Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin or Ted Hurst for Johnson to see a larger role offensively.

Shough completed 30 of 48 passes for 286 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions and rushed twice for five yards in the Saints' 45-24 loss to the Falcons on Monday night.

Shough's final line was perfectly acceptable from a fantasy standpoint, but Monday night was a case of the numbers being much more aesthetically pleasing than the on-field results. Shough piled up a significant part of his production in the second half -- including a three-yard touchdown pass to DeVaughn Vele with 1:13 remaining -- after the Saints already faced a sizable deficit, as he led a couple of 13-play drives in the fourth quarter when New Orleans was down by 21 and 28 points, respectively. Nevertheless, Shough generated his second interception-less performance of the last three games, and he's up to 1,203 passing yards and a 9:3 TD:INT along with 72 rushing yards and another score heading into a Week 5 home matchup against an aggressive Vikings defense on Sunday.

Tremble caught all four targets for 12 yards in Sunday night's win over the Lions.

Involved in a three-man committee at tight end, Tremble's 38 snaps trailed both Mitchell Evans (46) and Darren Waller (40) at the position. He also ran fewer routes than both. Tremble's 11 grabs this season have produced 82 scoreless yards on 15 targets. He has no fantasy appeal.

Arroyo didn't record any catches during Seattle's win over the Chargers on Sunday.

Arroyo wasn't targeted once for the third time this season across four outings. The 2025 second-round pick will likely continue to see minimal offensive output as the team's third-string tight end behind AJ Barner and Eric Saubert.

Olave secured eight of 12 targets for 116 yards in the Saints' 45-24 loss to the Falcons on Monday night.

Olave was in the customary position of leading the Saints in receptions, receiving yards and targets, putting together his third 100-yard effort, including his second straight, of 2026. Olave also extended his season-opening streak of games with double-digit targets to four, and although Jeff Nowak of WWLAM-FM reports the talented receiver took a hit to the knee on New Orleans' final drive and went to the sideline, he never entered the medical tent. Assuming Olave is no worse for wear, he'll once again be slated for a prominent role in a Week 5 home matchup against the Vikings on Sunday.

Higgins caught both of his targets for 19 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Giants.

As usual, most of Arizona's tight-end targets went to Trey McBride, who posted a 7-31-0 line on 12 looks. However, Higgins actually had a better fantasy score in some formats due to his two-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter. Higgins didn't log any receptions or targets over the first two weeks of the campaign, but he's ticked up his production a bit over the past two weeks with a 5-39-1 receiving line on five targets.

London brought in five of six targets for 96 yards in the Falcons' 45-24 win over the Saints on Monday night.

London set the pace for the Falcons' pass catchers for the second straight contest in all of receptions, receiving yards and targets, although his totals were appreciably more modest than the 9-194-0 line he'd produced on 10 targets in Week 3 against the Packers. Nevertheless, London and Michael Penix have quickly clicked during the latter's first two games of the season following his recovery from last year's ACL tear, and the talented receiver's prospects will therefore remain bright for a Week 5 home interconference showdown against the Ravens on Sunday night.

Claiborne carried the ball three times for 12 yards during Minnesota's win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

Claiborne continued to serve a limited role behind Aaron Jones even with Jordan Mason (thumb) on injured reserve. Claiborne will look to be more involved offensively during next week's matchup versus the Saints.
