Kelly (head) is being evaluated for a concussion during Sunday night's contest against the Falcons, Kevin Seifert of ESPN.com reports.

Kelly suffered a blow to the head in the first half against Atlanta, and it's unclear if he'll be able to return to the contest. Michael Jurgens has taken over at center in Kelly's absence.

Metcalf recorded three receptions on six targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-17 loss to the Seahawks.

The Steelers' passing attack took a significant step backward relative to Week 1, and Metcalf's output fell accordingly. He still led the team with six targets, though his longest gain went for only nine yards. Metcalf managed to salvage his day with a leaping two-yard touchdown shortly before halftime for his first score as a Steeler, though it was otherwise a forgettable performance.

Smith caught one of two targets for eight yards and rushed once for minus-10 yards in Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Bills.

Smith was the only Jets wide receiver other than Garrett Wilson to log a catch in the absence of Josh Reynolds (hamstring). It was the first catch of Smith's NFL career, as the rookie fourth-round pick was blanked in his regular-season debut against the Steelers in Week 1.

Adams recorded six receptions on 13 targets for 106 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 33-19 win over the Titans.

Adams led the Rams' pass catchers in targets and receiving yards, thanks in large part to long catches of 33 and 26 yards. He also recorded his first touchdown as a Ram on a 16-yard connection in the back corner of the end zone midway through the fourth quarter. Adams showed strong rapport with Matthew Stafford, which should bode well for his production moving forward, though he and the Rams will face a tough matchup against the Eagles in Week 3.

Burrow is feared to have suffered a Grade 3 turf toe injury, which would require surgery and a recovery period of at least three months, Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network report.

Burrow exited Sunday's 31-27 win over the Jaguars in the second quarter due to the injury. The star quarterback is still evaluating his options, per Rapoport, but Burrow is likely to face a multi-week absence even if he finds a non-surgical treatment option. Jake Browning produced three total touchdowns after Burrow's injury and would be in line to take over as Cincinnati's starter in Burrow's absence. Browning went 4-3 when Burrow missed the final seven games of the 2023 season due to a torn ligament in his wrist.

Shrader drilled all five of his field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in the Colts' 29-28 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

Shrader accounted for 17 of the Colts' 29 points in this one, making a 29-yard field goal to start off the scoring in the first quarter, followed by makes from 33, 36, 28 and 45. His 45-yard make won the game as time expired in the fourth quarter. On the season, Shrader has made all nine of his field goals and all five of his extra points.

Brown finished with five receptions on eight targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Chiefs.

This was certainly an improvement over last week's one-catch showing, but the end result was still poor from a fantasy perspective. DeVonta Smith (4-53-0) finished as the Eagles' leading receiver with Brown leading the team in targets (eight) and receptions (five). Philadelphia's run-heavy offense to kick off the 2025 season is the main culprit for the entire receiving corps posting paltry totals through two games. Perhaps Brown and the rest of the Eagles' aerial attack will finally take off in what could be a high-scoring affair against the Rams next Sunday.

Gesicki had three catches for 18 yards in Sunday's win over the Jaguars. He was tackled inside the one-yard line on the Bengals' final drive.

The addition of Noah Fant has cut into Gesicki's production, as has the emergence of other red zone targets like Mitchell Tinsley, who scored on his lone target Sunday.

Allen rushed twice for 11 yards and didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Bills.

Allen had just two touches to Breece Hall's 12, suggesting the former remains a distant second on the Jets' depth chart. The entire offense struggled in this one and actually picked up the pace down the stretch after Justin Fields (concussion) exited in the fourth quarter. Allen's outlook is unlikely to change if Fields misses additional action, in which case Tyrod Taylor would start under center.

Tuten rushed eight times for 42 yards and secured both targets for 32 yards and a touchdown while also returning one kickoff for 26 yards in the Jaguars' 31-27 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

In his first game without the traded Tank Bigsby on the roster, Tuten served as the clear No. 2 back behind Travis Etienne, logging a relatively modest six fewer carries than his backfield mate. Tuten also struck for his first NFL touchdown through the air, as he recorded an eight-yard scoring grab early in the second quarter. Tuten's five-carry boost from Week 1 was encouraging and confirmation of his status as the main complementary option to Etienne, and he'll look to carry over his momentum into a Week 3 home divisional showdown against the Texans next Sunday afternoon.
