Metchie recorded two receptions for 10 yards in Sunday's 31-25 victory over Tampa Bay.

Metchie totaled two catches for eight yards across the first three games of the season, so Sunday's performance represented his best effort to date. He remains firmly the fourth receiver on the Eagles' depth chart, however, as he saw the field for just five offensive snaps compared to 31 for No. 3 wideout Jahan Dotson.

Dotson was not targeted a single time in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Buccaneers.

Dotson has rarely recorded more than one catch in a game during his two seasons with the Eagles, and he didn't even reach that low threshold Sunday. He's now been blanked seven times in 21 regular season games with the team.

Bigsby didn't play a single offensive snap in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Buccaneers.

The Eagles acquired Bigsby from the Jaguars after Week 1 but have yet to make him part of the offensive gameplan. He's been used as a kick returner but hasn't seen the field on offense in any of his three games with his new team. With Will Shipley back from an oblique injury, Bigsby is now the fourth running back on the depth chart.

Dillon carried the ball three times for 17 yards in Sunday's 31-25 win over Tampa Bay.

Will Shipley returned from an oblique injury, but Dillon remained the No. 2 back behind Saquon Barkley, seeing the field for eight offensive snaps compared to Shipley's three. Unless Barkley gets hurt, however, Dillon is unlikely to see enough snaps to have much fantasy relevance.

Shipley played just three snaps on offense and didn't record a carry or draw a target in Sunday's 31-25 win over the Buccaneers.

Shipley was back in action after missing the previous two games due to an oblique injury, but his role was almost exclusively limited to special teams, where he was featured as a kick returner. AJ Dillon (three carries for 17 yards) ended up serving as the No. 2 back behind Saquon Barkley.

Jackson (hamstring) is likely to miss Sunday's game against the Texans and could be out for 2-to-3 weeks, two sources tell Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun.

The Ravens have been mum regarding the severity of the hamstring concern that forced Jackson out in the third quarter of Sunday's 37-20 loss to Kansas City, but the quarterback appears in line to miss his first game for injury-related reasons since 2022. According to the report, Jackson still plans to try and play through the injury this Sunday, but if he doesn't show enough improvement during the week, Cooper Rush would direct the offense against Houston. The expected loss of Jackson would be a major hit to the 1-3 Ravens in their matchup with the Texans' top-ranked scoring defense, which has allowed just 12.8 points per game through the first four weeks.

Royals accrued zero targets during Sunday's 37-20 win against the Ravens.

Royals didn't accumulate any snaps in any of the first three weeks, but the Chiefs took hold of a sizable lead against the Ravens, enough so that in the second half, the bench players got into the mix. Royals remains buried on the depth chart at this juncture, and there's little reason to anticipate that changing, especially with Rashee Rice's six-game suspension expiring prior to the Week 7 clash with the Raiders.

Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that the severity of the right hamstring injury Jackson sustained in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Chiefs remains uncertain, Brian Wacker of The Baltimore Sun reports. "There's nothing that looks like it's season-ending by any stretch," Harbaugh said, though he acknowledged Jackson wouldn't have returned to the Week 4 contest even if the game had been more competitive.

Jackson took his final snap with 8:10 left in the third quarter, when he was sacked by George Karlaftis before the Ravens finished off the drive with a field goal to cut their deficit to 14 points. Harbaugh said that he was unsure which play resulted in Jackson tweaking his hamstring, adding that the quarterback may have suffered the injury on an accumulation of plays. Jackson is likely to be sent in for further medical testing before the Ravens have a better idea regarding the extent of his hamstring injury and a potential timeline for his return. Cooper Rush finished the Week 4 loss under center and would be in line to start this Sunday against the Texans in the event Jackson is unable to play. Jackson hasn't missed a game due to injury since 2022, when a knee issue kept him out for the final five contests of the regular season as well as the Ravens' wild-card round loss to the Bengals.

Conner was not targeted during Monday's 27-21 win over the Jets.

Conner's already marginal involvement in the passing game took a backseat with the debut of veteran tight end Darren Waller. Though Waller was limited to 28 percent of offensive snaps Week 4, he was heavily utilized in those opportunities and only projects to expand his reps as the season progresses. Conner played just nine offensive snaps versus New York and he figures to face similar utilization going forward, beginning Sunday on the road against Carolina in Week 5.

Gray gathered in his only target for one yard during Sunday's 37-20 win versus the Ravens.

Gray's Week 4 showing is a bit of a disappointment after he claimed a combined 11 targets over the previous two contests. Gray has combined his season efforts to accumulate just six catches for 22 yards through four games, and any value he may have likely directly links to the availability of Travis Kelce. As long as Kelce is healthy and playing his full complement of snaps, Gray is unlikely to find fantasy relevance, barring the occasional touchdown.
