  • Colson Yankoff TE | WAS

    Commanders' Colson Yankoff: Works as Washington's No. 3 tight end

    Yankoff caught his only target for 14 yards in Sunday's Week 2 loss to Dallas.

    Yankoff logged 21 of the Commanders' 71 offensive snaps, ranking third among the team's tight ends behind Ben Sinnott (48) and John Bates (22). Washington was without starter Chig Okonkwo, who is dealing with a hamstring injury. Yankoff doesn't seem slated for a major role even with Okonkwo out of action, so he's currently off the radar in most fantasy formats.

  • Treylon Burks WR | WAS

    Commanders' Treylon Burks: Held without catch in Week 2

    Burks failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys.

    After being inactive in the season opener against the Eagles, Burks played 21 offensive snaps against Dallas as the fifth receiver behind Terry McLaurin, Stefon Diggs, Dyami Brown and rookie Antonio Williams. Burks doesn't have any fantasy value in redraft formats at the moment.

  • John Bates TE | WAS

    Commanders' John Bates: No targets in loss

    Bates played 22 offensive snaps and 14 special-teams snaps in Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cowboys.

    Bates played 22 of the Commanders' 71 offensive snaps in his start. The tight end was primarily used as a blocker for the team's run game but did not steal any targets from Ben Sinnott in the effort.

  • Troy Franklin WR | DEN

    Broncos' Troy Franklin: One catch in Week 2 win

    Franklin caught one of two targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Jaguars.

    With Marvin Mims (foot) inactive, Franklin played 13 of 62 offensive snaps as the clear No. 4 receiver behind Courtland Sutton, Pat Bryant and Jaylen Waddle. Franklin's 27-yard grab was his lone catch of the season through two weeks. He'll need an injury to obtain any fantasy relevance in redraft formats.

  • Jack Bech WR | LV

    Raiders' Jack Bech: Corrals two balls Sunday

    Bech caught both of his targets for 25 yards Sunday in a 26-14 victory versus the Chargers.

    Bech started at wideout for Las Vegas and ended up playing 34 of the team's 63 offensive snaps, the third-highest tally among Raiders WRs behind Tre Tucker (48) and Jalen Nailor (41). Bech didn't have a huge game, but he did haul in a 20-yard reception that resulted in a first-and-goal at the four-yard line. Through two games this season, Bech has five catches on six targets for 48 yards and a touchdown.

  • Chargers' Brenen Thompson: Three targets in loss

    Thompson caught one of his three targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 26-14 loss to the Raiders.

    Thompson's 13 offensive snaps were a distant fourth to those of the wide receivers ahead of him -- Ladd McConkey logged 31 snaps, Quentin Johnston had 55 and Tre' Harris was in on 56. Thompson's role in the pecking order is likely to remain similar for the foreseeable future.

  • Nate Adkins TE | DEN

    Broncos' Nate Adkins: Scores in win

    Adkins caught all three of his targets for 32 yards and a touchdown while rushing once for six yards in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Jaguars.

    Adkins played 23 of the Broncos' 62 offensive snaps while also contributing six snaps to the special-teams unit. The No. 3 tight end was particularly reliable in his complementary role, catching everything thrown his way and scoring a fourth-quarter touchdown to tie the game at 13 points.

  • Ameer Abdullah RB | JAC

    Jaguars' Ameer Abdullah: Limited workload in loss

    Abdullah carried the ball three times for 11 yards and caught his only target for two yards during Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Broncos.

    The 30-year-old was most involved on special teams and saw just six of the Jaguars' 59 offensive snaps, finishing behind Bhayshul Tuten (30), Chris Rodriguez (13) and LeQuint Allen (nine) in the backfield. Abdullah should continue to see a similar workload as long as the RBs ahead of him on the depth chart remain healthy.

  • Tyler Badie RB | DEN

    Broncos' Tyler Badie: Handles three touches in Week 2

    Badie rushed one time for one yard in Denver's 20-13 win over the Jaguars on Sunday. He added two catches for 28 yards on three targets.

    With RJ Harvey (hamstring) inactive against Jacksonville and J.K. Dobbins suffering a hamstring injury of his own in the game, Badie saw 16 offensive snaps behind rookie Jonah Coleman. Badie also returned three kickoffs for 84 yards on special teams.

  • LeQuint Allen RB | JAC

    Jaguars' LeQuint Allen: One target in loss

    Allen played nine offensive snaps and saw one target in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Broncos.

    Allen saw 21 fewer offensive snaps than Bhayshul Tuten and four fewer than Chris Rodriguez in Sunday's loss. The No. 3 running back could conceivably eat into Rodriguez's opportunities over the course of the season, but that still isn't likely to afford him much more opportunity.
