  • Jalen Nailor WR | LV

    Raiders' Jalen Nailor: Suffers concussion Sunday

    Nailor (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Chiefs.

    Nailor took a blow to the head late in the second quarter, and he was ultimately diagnosed with a concussion. The wide receiver will finish his day having recorded no stats. In his absence, Tre Tucker, Cody White and Dareke Young will operate as the Raiders' top options at wide receiver.

  • Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Records TD in close win

    Thomas secured both targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in the Jaguars' 22-17 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

    Thomas was a minimal part of the air attack once again, but that description also applied to fellow wideouts Jakobi Meyers and Parker Washington as the Bengals did an effective job taking away Trevor Lawrence's primary targets. However, the Thomas was able to break through with what turned out to be a key score, as he recorded a seven-yard scoring grab late in the first half in a game that was ultimately decided by five points. Thomas still has a modest nine receptions for 105 yards and Sunday's touchdown on 15 targets as the Jaguars head across the pond to face the Eagles in London in Week 5.

  • Texans' David Montgomery: Bottled up in Week 4 loss

    Montgomery carried the ball 10 times for 24 yards and added 19 receiving yards on a hook-and-ladder play in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.

    The veteran RB's longest gain on the ground went for only six yards, and Woody Marks scampered for the Texans' only rushing TD of the afternoon on a six-yard run just before the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter -- a score set up by Montgomery's 19-yard dash following a lateral from Dalton Schultz just one play before. Montgomery hasn't found the end zone himself or reached 50 scrimmage yards since Week 1, a streak he'll look to end in a Week 5 road trip to Tennessee.

  • C.J. Stroud QB | HOU

    Texans' C.J. Stroud: Comes up short in wild loss to Dallas

    Stroud completed 21 of 31 passes for 347 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys. He added 12 yards on two carries.

    With top receiver Nico Collins back in the fold after a hamstring strain, Stroud posted his best numbers of the season -- he threw for 353 yards in Week 2, but it came on 55 attempts and he didn't produce a TD. Both of Stroud's scores Sunday went to Collins, and through four games he has a 5:0 TD:INT, with his only two turnovers being a pair of Week 1 fumbles. The fourth-year QB will try to lead Houston to its first win of the year in a Week 5 road trip to Tennessee.

  • Bears' Colston Loveland: Draws nine targets from Bagent

    Loveland caught six of nine targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 23-12 win over the Jets.

    Loveland led the team with nine targets, tying his total from the previous three games combined. The 2025 first-round pick has been trending in the right direction after a painfully slow start, increasing his yardage total from zero to three to 31 to 57 in the first four games of his second regular season. Considering that Loveland's best game of the season came Sunday in Tyson Bagent's first start of the campaign, Loveland probably wouldn't mind Bagent sticking in the starting role for Week 5 at Green Bay, though Caleb Williams (hamstring) will reprise the starting job once healthy.

  • Tucker Kraft TE | GB

    Packers' Tucker Kraft: Finds end zone in narrow win

    Kraft brought in six of seven targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in the Packers' 17-14 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also rushed once for three yards.

    Kraft set the pace for the Packers in receptions and tied with Matthew Golden for the team lead in targets on the afternoon, while also finishing as the runner-up in receiving yards for Green Bay. The talented tight end also notched his first touchdown of the season two-yard catch early in the second half that was originally ruled out of bounds before being overturned on replay. Kraft has made a remarkable recovery from last year's season-ending knee injury, producing a 15-148-1 line over his first four games heading into a Week 5 home matchup against the Bears next Sunday.

  • Bears' Luther Burden: Ties season high with 63 rec yards

    Burden caught four of six targets for 63 yards and added an 11-yard rush in Sunday's 23-12 win over the Jets.

    Burden finished second on the team in receiving yards, trailing Rome Odunze by 31. Both of Chicago's touchdowns came on the ground, but Tyson Bagent looked capable under center and threw for 268 yards. If Caleb Williams (hamstring) doesn't return in Week 5 against the Packers, Burden will likely continue to catch passes from Bagent. Burden has topped 60 yards in three of four games to begin his sophomore season, but he has yet to exceed 63 receiving yards in a game after reaching the 100-yard mark twice during his rookie campaign.

  • Rashee Rice WR | KC

    Chiefs' Rashee Rice: Doubtful to return in Week 4

    Rice (hamstring) is doubtful to return to Sunday's contest in Las Vegas.

    Considering the downgrade from questionable to doubtful, Rice appears poised to finish Week 4 without a target in about half of a quarter of play. Xavier Worthy, Tyquan Thornton, Jalen Royals and Cyrus Allen will be the primary wide receivers available to QB Patrick Mahomes for as long as Rice is sidelined.

  • Nico Collins WR | HOU

    Texans' Nico Collins: Scores twice in return to lineup

    Collins caught seven of eight targets for 118 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-30 loss to the Cowboys.

    Making his return from a two-game absence due to a hamstring strain, Collins led the Texans in catches, targets and scrimmage yards while hauling in C.J. Stroud's only two TD passes of the day. While Houston is a disastrous 0-4 to start the season, the offense has scored 61 points in the two games Collins has been active for, and just 23 in the two games he missed. The star wideout will look to come up big again in Week 5 on the road in Tennessee.

  • Rome Odunze WR | CHI

    Bears' Rome Odunze: Season-best game with Bagent

    Odunze caught six of seven targets for 94 yards in Sunday's 23-12 win over the Jets.

    Odunze led the Bears in receiving yards while finishing two targets shy of Colston Loveland's team-high total as Tyson Bagent threw for 268 yards. This was the first time Odunze exceeded 52 receiving yards in a game this season, as he showed nice chemistry with the third QB to start a game for the Bears this season. Odunze's outlook is unlikely to change significantly whether the Bears get Caleb Williams (hamstring) back or stick with Bagent for Week 5 at Green Bay.
