St. Brown finished with six receptions (on 10 targets) for 86 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 24-9 win over Tampa Bay.

St. Brown found his way back into the end zone after being held scoreless in Detroit's last two contests. The superstar wideout continued dominating QB Jared Goff's target share, finishing the primetime win with seven more targets than any other Lions receiver. St. Brown's mini scoring slump hasn't stopped him from posting a WR1 numbers (50-538-7) heading into his team's bye week. Fantasy managers will have to fill the Sun God's roster spot Week 8 until Detroit returns to action against Minnesota on Sunday, Nov. 2.

Spears rushed the ball five times for 22 yards in Sunday's 31-13 loss to the Patriots. He added three receptions (on four targets) for 18 yards.

The Titans attempted only 12 rushes in the game, with Spears splitting the workload almost exactly evenly with Tony Pollard. More surprising was that Pollard out-produced him as a pass catcher, a role that Spears had seemingly taken over since his return to the field. While he's added an element to the Tennessee offense, the unit is poor enough that Spears won't be able to sustain fantasy value so long as he's in a timeshare with Pollard.

Campbell recorded eight total tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Monday night's 24-9 win over the Buccaneers.

Campbell finished tied for the team lead in takedowns with safety Erick Hallett, securing at least eight stops for the seventh game in a row to start the year. Additionally, the linebacker was able to get to quarterback Baker Mayfield in the first quarter, notching a sack for the second consecutive game. Campbell has now registered 64 total tackles (34 solo), including 3.0 sacks, while also adding two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery over seven contests this season.

Gibbs took 17 carries for 136 yards and a pair of touchdowns while adding three receptions for 82 yards in Monday's 24-9 win over the Buccaneers.

Gibbs saved his best for the bright lights of Monday Night Football, generating his first 100-yard rushing game this season while going over 200 yards from scrimmage for the first time in his career. The fantasy stud had cooled off over the Lions' last two contests, so managers have to feel elated receiving Monday's late boon to their scores. David Montgomery struggled to generate 39 total yards on 15 touches, but he remains a steady presence as part of Detroit's thunder and lightning backfield. Gibbs sprints into the upcoming bye week tallying 720 combined yards from scrimmage and seven total touchdowns through seven starts in 2025. Fantasy GMs will have to hold things together until the Lions resume play against the Vikings on Sunday, Nov. 2.

Dennis recorded 12 tackles (eight solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Monday's loss to the Lions.

Dennis finished second on Tampa Bay in tackles and recorded a new season-high mark. He also logged his first sack of the campaign when he brought down Jared Goff for a 12-yard loss early in the second quarter. On the season, Dennis has tallied 52 tackles and two pass defenses through seven contests.

Smith tallied 13 tackles (eight solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Monday's Week 7 loss to Detroit.

Smith paced the Bucs in tackles with a season-high tally. Among his stops was a sack of Jared Goff late in the second quarter that was immediately followed by a Tampa Bay interception. Smith has emerged as a viable IDP asset early in the season, totaling 58 tackles, including 2.0 sacks, through seven games.

Egbuka (hamstring) brought in four of 12 targets for 58 yards during the Buccaneers' 24-9 loss to the Lions on Monday night.

The rookie was surprisingly able to play through his hamstring strain, and he finished with a team-high target total while tying for second in both receptions and receiving yards. Egbuka also provided a team-high 30-yard catch, and given Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports Mike Evans has been diagnosed with a broken collarbone following his first-half exit from Monday's game, the 2025 first-round pick is set to play an elevated role for the rest of the season. Egbuka could be especially busy in Sunday's Week 8 road matchup against the Saints, considering Chris Godwin (fibula) could remain sidelined for that divisional clash.

Bates went 1-for-2 on field-goal tries and made all three of his PATs in Monday's 24-9 win over the Buccaneers.

Bates missed a 54-yard field-goal attempt wide left in the late moments of the second quarter before later adding a 58-yard make in the fourth. The kicker has now gone 8-for-11 on field-goal tries, including 2-for-5 from 50-plus yards, while making all 27 of his extra-point attempts over seven games this season.

Evans will be sidelined for most of the year after suffering a broken collarbone in Monday's 24-9 loss to the Lions, Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times reports.

Evans suffered the injury in the second quarter of Monday's loss while attempting to reel in a deep target. His absence will be a big blow to the Tampa Bay receiving corps, with Chris Godwin (leg) also banged up. Evans' streak of 11 straight campaigns with 1,000 receiving yards will also almost certainly come to an end.

White rushed 10 times for 38 yards and brought in four of six targets for six yards in the Buccaneers' 24-9 loss to the Lions on Monday night.

White drew another start for Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) but partly fell victim to game script, as the Lions had jumped out to a 14-3 lead by halftime. White also tied for second in receptions on the night for the Buccaneers, who lost Mike Evans to a concussion and what was ultimately diagnosed as a broken collarbone in the first half. Irving may be ready to return for the Week 8 road matchup against the Saints on Sunday, a development that would relegate White back to his customary No. 2 role.
