Harvey rushed four times for zero yards and caught one of two targets for a two-yard touchdown in Sunday's 33-32 win over the Giants.

Harvey was able to save an otherwise quiet day with a two-yard touchdown catch late in the fourth quarter to bring the Broncos within three points of the Giants before Denver would ultimately go on to win. The rookie running back played just 20 of the Broncos' 81 offensive snaps, behind both J.K. Dobbins (40) and Tyler Badie (21). Harvey continues to see a modest role in the Broncos' offense, limiting his upside as a rusher. Despite seeing an uptick in his usage as a pass catcher in recent weeks, the 24-year-old's two targets against the Giants were his fewest since Week 2. Barring an injury to Dobbins, Harvey will remain difficult to trust for consistent fantasy production going forward. Up next for Denver is a Week 8 matchup against the Cowboys' vulnerable run defense, which could provide an opportunity for a bounce-back performance for the UCF product.

Bachman returned one punt for six yards in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs.

Bachman battled back from an ankle injury earlier in the week to suit up as the Raiders' punt returner Sunday, though he was mostly uninvolved as a receiver, logging just two offensive snaps despite Jakobi Meyers' (knee) absence. Heading into the Week 8 bye, Bachman has totaled just one reception for nine yards on two targets across six games played.

Lovett logged all 11 of his snaps on special teams Monday in the Lions' 24-9 win over the Buccaneers.

A rookie seventh-round wideout of Georgia, Lovett has suited up for each of the Lions' first seven games but has played just seven total snaps on offense. Unless Detroit's depth at receiver takes a hit, Lovett should continue to see the overwhelming majority of his playing time on special teams, where he has a role on the Lions' coverage units.

Dwelley went without a target while playing six of the Lions' 68 snaps on offense in Monday's 24-9 win over the Buccaneers.

Dwelley has now logged single-digit snaps in all but one of his five appearances this season and will continue to see limited playing time at tight end while Sam LaPorta and Brock Wright are both healthy. The 30-year-old has yet to draw a target and will likely be deployed mainly as a blocker on the rare occasions he takes the field.

Thornton was unable to haul in any of his three targets in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs.

Thornton actually had a pair of would-be first down receptions wiped out by penalties, but he ended the contest with a zero in the box score because of the flags. Nonetheless, his playing time surged with Jakobi Meyers (knee) and Brock Bowers (knee) sidelined, as Thornton logged 86 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps. Meyers is tracking to return after the Week 8 bye, so Thornton figures to continue competing with Jack Bech for the WR3 role.

Saylors returned two kickoffs for 54 yards in Monday's 24-9 win over the Buccaneers.

Since logging his first two NFL carries (and gaining 11 yards) in a Week 4 blowout win over the Browns, Saylors has played exclusively on special teams in the Lions' subsequent three games. In addition to serving as Detroit's top kickoff returner, Saylors also has a role on the Lions' coverage units.

Bech caught two passes on as many targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 31-0 loss to Kansas City.

Bech's two receptions were good enough to make him the Raiders' second-leading receiver behind Tre Tucker, but quarterback Geno Smith completed just 10 passes all game. Las Vegas plans to have Jakobi Meyers (knee) and Brock Bowers (knee) back in the lineup following a Week 8 bye, capping Bech's fantasy upside as the WR3 on a struggling offense.

Laube rushed twice for three yards and caught his lone target for one yard in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs.

Laube handled three touches on just five offensive snaps late in the fourth quarter during the Raiders' blowout defeat, ceding work to fellow running backs Ashton Jeanty and Raheem Mostert earlier in the contest. Nonetheless, Laube managed to play through the hamstring injury that impacted his practice participation ahead of the Week 7 loss, while Zamir White (coach's decision) was a healthy scratch Sunday.

Mostert caught his lone target for two yards in Sunday's 31-0 loss to the Chiefs. He also returned three kickoffs for 100 yards.

Mostert's 100 return yards marked a season high, but he failed to record a single carry after collectively rushing 16 times from Week 4 to Week 6 behind rookie Ashton Jeanty. The Raiders' offense will look to get back on track against the Jaguars in Week 9 following the upcoming bye.

Adkins played 26 of the Broncos' 81 snaps on offense and finished with two catches for 20 yards on three targets in Sunday's 33-32 win over the Giants.

Adkins recorded a 16-yard touchdown reception in the Broncos' 13-11 win over the Jets in London in Week 6, but he's otherwise offered little fantasy utility in his backup role at tight end behind starter Evan Engram. Through five appearances on the season, Adkins has played fewer than half of the Broncos' offensive snaps on each occasion and has produced a 6-48-1 receiving line on nine targets.
