  • DK Metcalf WR | PIT

    Steelers' DK Metcalf: One catch in Week 8 win

    Metcalf brought in one of six targets for four yards in the Steelers' 27-6 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Aaron Rodgers put up a season low in completions, pass attempts, passing yards and completion percentage Sunday, and Metcalf's production was part of the collateral damage. The veteran wideout did see a team high in targets, but the fact he did next to nothing with them led to season lows in catches and receiving yards. Metcalf has had a handful of splash plays over the first half of the season and has two games of more than 90 receiving yards, but he's averaging a career-low 11.5 yards per reception and has just a single touchdown reception heading into the Week 9 bye.

  • Mark Andrews TE | BAL

    Ravens' Mark Andrews: Three grabs amid QB issues

    Andrews caught three of four targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 36-10 loss to the Bills.

    Though Lamar Jackson (ankle) made his awaited return to the lineup, his stay lasted just one offensive snap Sunday before suffering a serious thumb injury. Tyler Huntley then exited the game with a toe injury in the second quarter, forcing undrafted rookie Joe Fagnano into emergency QB duties. No Ravens player produced even 25 receiving yards against Buffalo. Andrews has been in an extended slump and won't be a trustworthy fantasy tight end for Thursday night against the Jaguars.

  • Denzel Boston WR | CLE

    Browns' Denzel Boston: Six snags in loss

    Boston caught six of 11 targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 27-6 loss to the Steelers.

    Boston entered Week 8 having caught just four of 13 targets for 42 yards over the previous two games, so Sunday's output was a step in the right direction. The wide receiver's 11 targets were a new career high, and he ranked second behind tight end Harold Fannin (12) in the category versus Pittsburgh. Boston has now reeled in 26 of 53 targets for 409 yards and three touchdowns over the first eight games of the 2026 campaign.

  • Dalton Kincaid TE | BUF

    Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Leading receiver in Week 8 win

    Kincaid (chest) caught four of six targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-10 win over the Ravens.

    Kincaid was questionable coming into the game due to a chest injury, but he managed to suit up and finished as the team leader in receiving yards. He made a 40-yard catch early in the fourth quarter and capped the following drive with a 23-yard touchdown catch. The streaky TE has returned to form with 11 catches for 124 yards and a touchdown over the past two games. Kincaid had just four catches for 52 yards over his previous three outings after starting the season with 12 catches for 225 yards and a TD through two games. Next up for Kincaid and the Bills is a Week 9 MNF clash with Minnesota's elite defense.

  • Aaron Rodgers QB | PIT

    Steelers' Aaron Rodgers: Modest production in Week 8 win

    Rodgers completed 13 of 25 passes for 172 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in the Steelers' 27-6 win over the Browns on Sunday.

    Jaylen Warren spearheaded the Steelers' attack with 143 rushing yards and a touchdown, and backfield mate Rico Dowdle added 56 yards and a score of his own. When combined with a highly effective effort by Pittsburgh's defense, there wasn't an inordinate amount required of Rodgers and the air attack after much busier games leading into Sunday. Rodgers finished with season-low figures in completions, pass attempts, completion percentage and passing yards while also failing to throw a touchdown pass for the first time since Week 2, but he's highly likely to be back to his prior pass-heavy ways in a Week 10 road showdown against the Bengals on Sunday night, Nov. 15, following a Week 8 bye.

  • Travis Kelce TE | KC

    Chiefs' Travis Kelce: Five grabs in Denver

    Kelce caught five of seven targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Broncos.

    The 37-year-old tight end caught more than four passes and topped 60 yards for the first time since Week 2, but his TD drought stands at four games. Kelce moved up another rung on the NFL's all-time leaderboards with this performance, as he passed Torry Holt to take over 18th place in career receiving yards (13,412). Kelce will take a 29-410-2 line on 42 targets through seven games in the current campaign into a Week 9 clash with the Jets.

  • Jordan Addison WR | MIN

    Vikings' Jordan Addison: Leads team in receiving in loss

    Addison caught three of eight targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 19-15 loss to the Lions.

    Addison's big play was a 51-yard catch over the top of the defense in the fourth quarter to set the offense up at the 10-yard line. T.J. Hockenson scored a go-ahead touchdown two plays later. Addison's eight targets on the day were one fewer than Justin Jefferson, but it was the former who paced the team in receiving yards. Playing in a Minnesota offense that doesn't push the ball down the field much or to its outside receivers, Addison has just 16 catches for 249 yards and one touchdown on 33 targets through six games this season. He'll be a WR4 with upside next Monday night against a leaky Bills secondary.

  • Titans' Wan'Dale Robinson: Ties season high with 57 rec yards

    Robinson caught six of seven targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 43-36 overtime loss to the Bengals. He also lost a fumble.

    Robinson didn't experience a significant change in role in the absence of Carnell Tate (shoulder), as this was the fourth consecutive game in which Robinson notched either six or seven targets. His 57 receiving yards tied a season high, and Robinson scored his third touchdown of the season on a 15-yard catch in the fourth quarter. The Titans took a seven-point lead with 3:46 remaining after a successful two-point conversion following Robinson's TD, but the Bengals answered with a game-tying touchdown drive and eventually won in OT to drop the Titans to 1-7. Robinson and the Titans will be on bye in Week 9 before returning to action against the Jaguars in Week 10.

  • Deshaun Watson QB | CLE

    Browns' Deshaun Watson: Over 300 passing yards in loss

    Watson completed 27 of 39 passes for 324 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions while rushing three times for two yards in the Browns' 27-6 loss to the Steelers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

    Watson couldn't get lead the Browns to a single touchdown, but he exceeded 300 passing yards for the second straight game since Cleveland was forced into a pass-centric approach. Watson displayed the most chemistry with Harold Fannin (10-154-0 on 12 targets), and he recorded completions to seven different targets overall. Watson also lost the handle on a combined sack by Patrick Queen and Cameron Heyward in the first quarter, which led to a Steelers touchdown. Watson will look to rebound in a favorable road matchup against the Saints in Week 9 next Sunday.

  • Chiefs' Emmett Johnson: Huge day as pass catcher in Week 8 loss

    Johnson carried the ball once for 15 yards and caught all five of his targets for 128 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Broncos. He also added 44 yards on his only kickoff return.

    The rookie running back flashed his explosiveness on a 73-yard catch and run in the second quarter that produced Johnson's first career NFL touchdown. He came into Sunday with a 9-109-0 line on 11 targets through six games, and his six touches were firmly behind Kenneth Walker's 25, but Johnson's breakout performance can only encourage Andy Reid to find more ways to get the ball in his hands. Johnson will look to build on this effort in Week 9 against the Jets.
