Monangai rushed 10 times for 31 yards and wasn't targeted in the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Monday night.

The second-year back logged exactly half of D'Andre Swift's workload on the ground, with Monangai handling his third straight 10-carry total to open the season. The Rutgers product saw his efficiency take a notable dip for the second consecutive game following a stellar Week 1 where he averaged 10.0 yards per carry, yet Monangai's role as a fairly high-volume No. 2 back in Chicago's offense is safe. The lack of receiving work Monday night was a disappointment after Monangai posted a 4-35-0 line through the air in the first two games, but he'll have a chance to atone in what should be a favorable Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.

Allgeier rushed twice for a loss of one yard and caught all four of his targets for 10 yards in the Cardinals' 36-30 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Allgeier wasn't asked to rush much. The No. 2 running back left most of the carries to rookie Jeremiyah Love. The 26-year-old racked up his points on screen passes and checkdowns, catching everything thrown his way for minimal gains.

Concepcion finished Sunday's 21-18 victory versus Carolina with two catches on nine targets for nine yards. He also returned one punt for one yard.

Concepcion actually tied tight end Harold Fannin for the team lead with nine targets, but the rookie wideout managed to haul in just two of those looks. His receptions went for five and four yards, continuing what has become a trend, as he's averaging a meager 6.7 yards per reception so far this season. The target share indicates that the Browns want Concepcion to be an integral part of the passing game, but so far he doesn't seem to be clicking with QB Deshaun Watson.

Loveland secured all four targets for 31 yards in the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Monday night.

Head coach Ben Johnson appeared to make a concerted effort to get the ball into Loveland's hands Monday after the tight end's slow first two games, and that approach met with some success. While all three components of Loveland's receiving line qualified as season-high figures, the second-year pro's longest reception went for just 12 yards and he was well behind the wideout trio of Kalif Raymond, Luther Burden and Rome Odunze in receiving yards. Loveland's chemistry with fill-in signal-caller Case Keenum was encouraging, however, and the duo should have a chance to continue working together in Sunday's Week 4 home matchup against the Jets.

Nailor caught one of his three targets for 16 yards in the Raiders' 35-27 win over the Saints on Sunday.

Nailor struggled for the Raiders in Week 3. The team relied more on tight end Brock Bowers to carry the receiving offense. Tre Tucker and Nailor received over three times fewer targets than the tight end in the contest, with Bowers establishing the pecking order early in his return from injury.

Odunze secured three of six targets for 44 yards in the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Monday night.

Odunze was relegated to a complementary role in the 20-point victory, finishing fourth in receptions and third in both receiving yards and targets for the Bears on the night. While Odunze entered the season as the presumptive No. 1 receiver, veteran offseason addition Kalif Raymond, who had familiarity with head coach Ben Johnson's scheme from their mutual time with the Lions, has enjoyed an expanded role over the first three games while gathering in an impressive 19 of 21 targets. Conversely, Odunze is averaging a career-best 17.4 yards per reception but has a modest eight catches and no touchdowns through three games, numbers he'll look to significantly boost during a Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.

Helm notched two catches on four targets for 14 yards Sunday in a loss to the Giants.

Helm and fellow tight end Daniel Bellinger each had two catches in the contest, though Helm garnered two more targets. After opening the campaign with a 4-28-0 line against the Jets, Helm has managed a combined 4-27-0 line across his subsequent pair of games. He'll look to be more productive next Sunday in Baltimore, though Tennessee's passing game as a whole is struggling so far, averaging just 159.0 yards per game -- third-fewest in the NFL.

Burden secured seven of 11 targets for 61 yards and a touchdown while rushing once for seven yards in the Bears' 27-7 win over the Eagles on Monday night.

The second-year wideout led the Bears in receptions and targets in the impressive win with totals that also qualified as season highs, while checking in second only to Kalif Raymond in receiving yards. Burden also scored his first touchdown of the season on a nifty shovel pass that he took eight yards to the house while breaking multiple tackles near the goal line to cap off Chicago's opening possession. Burden's ability to click with fill-in signal-caller Case Keenum bodes well for the receiver's fantasy prospects, considering Caleb Williams (hamstring) is still projected to miss several more games. Burden will look to carry over the momentum into a Week 4 home matchup against the Jets on Sunday.

Barner caught 5-of-9 targets for 69 yards in the Seahawks' 33-31 loss to the Commanders on Sunday.

Barner saw an intense target share in Sunday's contest, picking up the slack for the Seahawks' offense. The Commanders' defense relentlessly prioritized Jaxon Smith-Njigba as the game developed, leaving Barner to see plenty of attention in a losing effort.

Hurts completed 16 of 25 passes for 153 yards with no touchdowns and one interception while rushing four times for 25 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 27-7 loss to the Bears on Monday night.

Hurts scuffled through the air as much as his final suggests, averaging a modest 6.1 yards per attempt while taking a pair of sacks. The star signal-caller also absorbed a big hit on the sideline at the end of a two-yard scramble shortly before the midway point of the second quarter, and he missed four plays while undergoing a concussion check he subsequently passed. Hurts led the Eagles to their only points upon checking back in for the following possession, one he capped off with a one-yard touchdown run as time expired in the first half. That would prove to be the highlight of an otherwise forgettable night, and Hurts is averaging a modest 206.7 passing yards per game while carrying a 5:3 TD:INT into a Week 4 home showdown against the Rams on Sunday.
