  • Chargers' Oronde Gadsden: Impresses in debut

    Gadsden caught five of his seven targets for 46 yards in the 23-20 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

    The rookie was a healthy inactive the first two weeks, but with Will Dissly (knee) sidelined, Gadsden made the most of his immediate usage. While Tucker Fisk (29) and Tyler Conklin (22) played more or the same amount of snaps as Gadsden (22), it was clear the 2025 third-round pick was the only tight end that was utilized as a legitimate pass-catching threat. While most of the targets were underneath checkdowns, Gadsden showed burst after the catch and routinely found space in Denver's vaunted zone defense. Los Angeles is suddenly overflowing with offensive targets, but if Greg Roman's scheme is forced to rely on the TE position, Gadsden could see more opportunities in the future.

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Expected to miss 3-to-4 weeks

    Lamb is expected to miss 3-to-4 weeks due to the high-ankle sprain he suffered during Sunday's loss to the Bears, though the Cowboys haven't yet officially ruled him out for Week 4 against the Packers, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Dallas executive vice president Stephen Jones said Monday that the Cowboys would "would love to have [Lamb] back for Green Bay," per Joe Hoyt of The Dallas Morning News, though Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that the star wide receiver is considered unlikely for Week 4 and will instead be evaluated within the next 10-to-14 days. While a 3-to-4 week absence seems realistic given the severity of Lamb's injury, it appears the team may hold out hope he's able to manage an earlier return and thus not place him on IR. In any case, George Pickens and TE Jake Ferguson will figure to step up as the leader of Dallas' passing attack until Lamb is ready to retake the field, with wideouts Jalen Tolbert and KaVontae Turpin also likely for bumps in volume.

  • Foye Oluokun LB | JAC

    Jaguars' Foyesade Oluokun: Six stops vs. Texans

    Oluokun tallied six total tackles (five solo) during Sunday's 17-10 win over the Texans.

    The veteran inside linebacker from Yale recorded his lowest tackle output of the season in Jacksonville's Week 3 win, but he still leads the team with 23 stops on the year. Oluokun has been one of the NFL's top tacklers over the past couple of seasons, recording 108 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and seven passes defended across just 13 regular-season games in 2024. He's expected to continue wreaking havoc on opposing offenses in Week 4, when the Jaguars travel to San Francisco.

  • Russell Wilson QB | NYG

    Giants' Russell Wilson: Giants considering changes

    Head coach Brian Daboll said Monday when asked whether the team is considering a potential change from Wilson as the starting quarterback, "We're evaluating everything," Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Wilson came down to earth after throwing for 450 yards Week 2, instead struggling mightily during Sunday night's 22-9 primetime loss to the Chiefs. The veteran signal-caller averaged a paltry 5.0 yards per attempt , finishing the game with 160 passing yards, zero touchdowns and two interceptions on 18-for-32 passing while rushing five times for 27 yards. After such an unconvincing showing, it's possible New York will turn away from Wilson and instead opt to give rookie Jaxson Dart or veteran backup Jameis Winston a chance to spark this offense Week 4 against the Chargers.

  • Jake Tonges TE | SF

    49ers' Jake Tonges: Gains 21 yards in start

    Tonges brought in two of three targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals.

    Tonges made his first career start Sunday, finishing with 15 more snaps than fellow tight end Luke Farrell. The 25-year-old Tonges failed to replicate the Week 1 touchdown that generated some fantasy buzz, resulting in mediocre production in two appearances with backup QB Mac Jones. Tonges could see a slight uptick in projections if Brock Purdy (toe/shoulder) is able to suit up against the Jaguars next Sunday.

  • Jordan Davis DT | JAC

    Eagles' Jordan Davis: Notches sack in Week 3

    Davis recorded five total tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.

    Davis is having an incredibly productive start to Philadelphia's 2025 campaign, logging 16 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and three passes defended across just three games. He's already set a new career high in passes defended and is on pace to shatter his previous best tackle output in a single season (45). The Georgia product will look to extend his blistering start to the season in a Week 4 road matchup against the Buccaneers.

  • Giants' Daniel Bellinger: Catches lone target Sunday

    Bellinger caught his only target for six yards Sunday in a Week 3 loss to the Chiefs.

    Bellinger was again clearly behind Theo Johnson in the tight-end pecking order, logging 16 offensive snaps to Johnson's 57. Chris Manhertz also got 13 snaps on offense, so Bellinger seems to be stuck in a relatively minor role on a game-to-game basis. He has just two catches for 20 yards through three weeks, taking him off the fantasy radar almost entirely.

  • Theo Johnson TE | NYG

    Giants' Theo Johnson: Held to one catch in Week 3 loss

    Johnson caught one of two targets for 10 yards in Sunday's loss to Kansas City.

    Most of New York's pass-catching corps was stifled by a tough Chiefs defense -- even star wideout Malik Nabers got just four targets, catching a mere one pass for 26 yards -- so Johnson's limited production isn't fully on his shoulders. He remained the Giants' clear top tight end in the contest, logging 57 of the team's 66 offensive snaps to 16 snaps for Daniel Bellinger and 13 for Chris Manhertz. With that being said, Johnson has a modest six catches (on 10 targets) for 49 yards through three games, so he's not an attractive fantasy target, though his outlook could change if New York at some point makes a move away from Russell Wilson at quarterback and instead decides to go with either Jameis Winston or Jaxson Dart behind center.

  • Zack Baun LB | PHI

    Eagles' Zack Baun: Continues to impresses in Week 3

    Baun recorded seven total tackles (three solo) and two passes defended, including one interception, during Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.

    Baun picked off Matthew Stafford early in the first quarter of Sunday's win to set up the Eagles' first touchdown of the day. The 28-year-old has now played 100 percent of Philadelphia's defensive snaps in three consecutive games, tallying 22 total tackles and three passes defended, including one interception, during that span. He's expected to continue starting alongside rookie Jihaad Campbell to form one of the NFL's top inside-linebacker tandems during a Week 4 matchup against the Buccaneers.

  • Skyy Moore WR | GB

    49ers' Skyy Moore: Gets involved on offense Sunday

    Moore brought in his only target for 10 yards in Sunday's 16-15 win over the Cardinals.

    Moore was on the field for 32 snaps on offense (52 percent) after logging a combined five snaps on that side of the ball over the first two weeks of the season. The 24-year-old still handled his usual return duties, racking up 87 combined return yards between three punts and two kickoffs. Moore may be strictly limited to special teams Week 4 with Demarcus Robinson (suspension) expected to return against the Jaguars next Sunday.
