Douglas caught seven of eight targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Jets.

A.J. Brown returned to the lineup from his ankle injury and led the team with 10 targets, but he dropped multiple passes and finished with a 3-27-0 receiving line. After Romeo Doubs left with a shoulder injury early in the first half following a long touchdown grab, Douglas stepped into an increased offensive role. He ran 26 routes on Drake Maye's 35 dropbacks, and Douglas caught a nine-yard touchdown in the second quarter. He's posted back-to-back big box scores after logging 4-65-2 receiving last Sunday against Las Vegas. The Patriots' slot man doesn't have a big fantasy ceiling but looks like a passable WR4 during bye-weeks crunches headed into Thursday night's game against the Bears.

Dotson caught three of five targets for 87 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-23 loss to Chicago.

Dotson led the team in receiving yards, and his most notable moment of the game came in the second quarter when he connected with quarterback Michael Penix for a 13-yard touchdown. The wide receiver has now reeled in multiple passes in three straight contests, exceeding 50 receiving yards in each of those games, and he appears to have distanced himself as the team's No. 2 option behind Drake London at his position.

Williams notched 10 carries for 50 yards and recorded three catches (on six targets) for 17 yards during Sunday's 18-16 defeat to the Cardinals.

Williams' rush total represents a season low as he ceded nine carries to reserve RB Blake Corum. Additionally, Williams also didn't reach the end zone for only the second time in six games in 2026, while Corum recorded a TD for the second consecutive contest. Williams is nearly exactly doubling up Corum in terms of touches on the campaign (110 vs. 56), so he figures to be the better bet for a fantasy-relevant performance next Sunday in Las Vegas

Hampton rushed seven times for 18 yards and caught all four of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Chiefs.

The Chargers continued to employ an ineffective backfield rotation, as Hampton got 11 touches compared to 10 for Kimani Vidal and two for Keaton Mitchell. None of the three running backs exceeded 3.0 yards per carry while QB Justin Herbert led the team with 26 rushing yards. Hampton has been trending in the wrong direction, with his rushing yardage dropping with each subsequent game since a 94-yard performance on the ground in Week 2 against the Raiders. He'll look to reverse that trend in Week 8 against the Rams following a Week 7 bye.

Miller carried the ball 20 times for 70 yards and caught both his targets for zero yards in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Giants.

Alvin Kamara missed time in the first half due to an undisclosed injury, and while he was able to return and make an impact as a pass catcher, Miller led the Saints in rushing yards and touches with 22. The 70 yards also represented his best total since Week 18 of his rookie season in 2023. With Travis Etienne (hamstring) not eligible to return until after a Week 8 bye, Miller should split reps in the backfield with Kamara once again in Week 7 against the Steelers in Paris.

Tracy rushed six times for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints. He added two catches for 27 yards and an additional touchdown on three targets.

With Cam Skattebo seemingly benched after losing a fumble in overtime against the Commanders last Sunday, Tracy played a season-high 29 offensive snaps and led the team with six rushing attempts. Only Devin Singletary (31 snaps) played more on offense, as Najee Harris (11 snaps) got the nominal start. Skattebo was in for just six offensive plays. It's unclear if the Giants will continue to punish Skattebo next Sunday against the Texans, but this looks like a backfield to avoid in fantasy.

Shough completed 16 of 30 passes for 144 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Giants. He added 32 yards and a TD on five carries.

While he didn't produce much yardage, Shough kept the Saints' offense humming, connecting with Bryce Lance, Alvin Kamara and Chris Olave for scores through the air while adding a one-yard touchdown on the ground in the third quarter. Shough has been playing through a couple broken bones in his non-throwing hand, which could help explain why he has just 242 passing yards over the last two weeks, but the second-year QB showed he can be plenty productive despite the injury. Shough will take a 12:5 TD:INT through six games into a Week 7 tilt against the Steelers in Paris.

Nacua hauled in six of seven targets for 80 yards during Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Cardinals

The modest stat line for Nacua may indicate otherwise, but it was a subpar performance aside from the 43-yard connection he made with QB Matthew Stafford just before the two-minute warning in the fourth quarter. As for his five other grabs, Nacua averaged just 7.4 YPC. It was a far cry from the 17-138-1 line on 24 targets that he put up during last Monday's overtime loss to the Bills, but he's still sitting on a healthy 37-417-1 line on 52 targets through his four appearances this season. Nacua and the 2-4 Rams will look to right the ship next Sunday at Las Vegas.

Tremble caught all four targets for 46 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 25-14 win over the Eagles.

Tremble played 54 snaps to Mitchell Evans' 43 and Darren Waller's 36, and it was Tremble who ran the most routes of the trio. His touchdowns were both of the red-zone variety, scoring from 12 and 19 yards. The tight end entered Sunday with 11 catches for 82 yards on 15 targets, so he's not worth chasing in fantasy ahead of next Sunday's date with the Bucs.

Bernard caught 11 of 12 targets for 87 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 overtime win over the Bucs.

With Michael Pittman (foot) and Roman Wilson (finger) out for the Steelers, Bernard was the clear WR2 behind DK Metcalf and actually ran a team-high 54 routes on Aaron Rodgers' 56 dropbacks. Metcalf edged Bernard out in targets 15 to 12, while both players caught 11 passes. Pittman and Wilson are both required to miss at least two and three more games respectively, so Bernard is locked into an every-down role for the immediate future. Rodgers has sung the rookie wideout's praises early on this season, and it's reasonable to expect Bernard to remain a key part of the passing offense moving forward. He should be rostered in all fantasy formats.
