Bobo wasn't targeted in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Steelers.

Bobo played 10 offensive snaps but couldn't get Sam Darnold's attention, as Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp combined for a 63 percent target share. Still, Bobo is a valued run blocker for the Seahawks, and he'll continue to play a role on special teams, too.

Freiermuth recorded three catches on four targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Seahawks.

Freiermuth continues to split pass-catching duties at tight end with Jonnu Smith, though the duo is being utilized in different ways. Freiermuth drew a pair of downfield targets in Sunday's loss, and he managed to convert one for a 20-yard gain, while Smith was targeted more close to the line of scrimmage. Freiermuth also had a chance to score his first touchdown of the season, though teammate Calvin Austin inadvertently broke up the pass, resulting in an interception.

Smith recorded four receptions on four targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Seahawks.

Smith saw his role as a pass catcher even out with Pat Freiermuth, as both tight ends earned four targets. As was the case in Week 1, Smith was used on short and quick passes with the goal of picking up yards after the catch. Smith's longest gain of the day went for only nine yards, and he has just 42 total yards on nine catches for the campaign.

Gainwell rushed the ball five times for 20 yards in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Seahawks. He added three receptions on five targets for 16 yards.

Gainwell was out-touched 18-8 by Jaylen Warren, settling into a change-of-pace role in the Pittsburgh offense. Gainwell's most notable carry came late in the third quarter when he spelled Jaylen Warren near the goal line, but he was stuffed at the four-yard line. Gainwell will likely struggle to get enough volume to be fantasy relevant in most formats, particularly if Kaleb Johnson is able to emerge in the offense as the season progresses.

Austin recorded one reception on four targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 31-17 loss to Seattle.

Austin looked like he was starting a breakout season after a strong Week 1 showing, but his performance took a significant dip in Week 2. Beyond the lackluster stat line, he ran the wrong route in the end zone late in the third quarter, with the ball ultimately being picked by Seattle. Austin is likely to continue to earn snaps, but his production will also remain inconsistent.

Downs recorded six receptions on eight targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 29-28 win over the Broncos.

Downs wasn't prioritized in the Colts' Week 1 offense, though he led the team in both targets and receptions in Week 2. He was busy early in the game, as he recorded two receptions for 29 yards on the team's first four offensive plays. Tyler Warren has quickly emerged as Daniel Jones' favorite target, leaving Downs as likely to rotate productive games with the likes of Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce.

Allgeier recorded 16 carries for 76 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 22-6 win over the Vikings. He added one reception on one target for four yards.

The Falcons led for the entire game but truly took control in the second half. As a result, 12 of Allgeier's carries came in the final two quarters, and he took advantage by tallying gains of 17 and 13 yards as well as finding the end zone five yards away in the final five minutes of game time. Allgeier will likely need this type of game script to be fantasy relevant, though that could occur again in Week 3 against Carolina.

Thornton brought in two of five targets for 59 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Eagles.

Thornton left his mark on this contest when he beat his defensive assignment deep for a 49-yard touchdown grab in the fourth quarter of an eventual loss. The former Patriot had just one reception for 10 yards on his previous four targets, highlighting the boom-or-bust nature of his role in this offense. With Xavier Worthy (shoulder) trending towards a Week 3 return, Thornton could find himself back in a reserve role against the Giants next Sunday.

Higbee recorded four receptions on four targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 33-19 win over the Titans.

Higbee didn't see a target in Week 1, but he finished third on the team in opportunities in Sunday's win. He was particularly involved early in the contest, as three of his four receptions came on the Rams' first three offensive possessions. Puka Nacua and Davante Adams will likely dominate targets in the offense, leading to a relatively unpredictable role for Higbee on a week-to-week basis.

Okonkwo recorded four receptions on six targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 33-19 loss to the Rams.

Okonkwo tied for the team lead with six targets, though he couldn't match Elic Ayomanor or Calvin Ridley in their ability to generate yards. Okonkwo was targeted in short areas of the field, though he did manage a long gain of 14 yards. He may start to lose playing time to Gunnar Helm as the season progresses, but Okonkwo has commanded a solid 10 targets across the first two games of the campaign.
