Saints head coach Kellen Moore said that Tyson (hamstring) traveled to Paris in advance of Sunday's game against the Steelers, NewOrleans.football reports.

Tyson has been sidelined since mid-August due to a right hamstring strain, but the Saints' decision to include him in their travel party to France could be a sign that his 21-day practice window will be opened this week. While Tyson would have a chance at making his NFL debut against the Steelers if he practices this week, the Saints may prefer to hold him out through their Week 8 bye to give him additional time to heal. Whenever he makes his way back from injured reserve, the No. 8 overall pick in the draft could immediately push Devaughn Vele for the No. 2 spot on the depth chart at receiver behind Chris Olave.

Concepcion brought in four of six targets for 37 yards, rushed twice for two yards and returned one punt for 13 yards in the Browns' 13-10 win over the Ravens on Sunday.

The rookie made a quick recovery from the concussion he'd suffered in Week 5 against the Jets, and Concepcion tied for the team lead in receptions and boasted Cleveland's top target tally while finishing as the runner-up in receiving yards. The first-round pick usually works in a short-area role that limits his fantasy utility outside of PPR formats, but Concepcion's 22 receptions heading into a Week 7 road matchup against the Titans do suggest he has plenty of Deshaun Watson's trust.

Lane brought in four of five targets for 40 yards in the Ravens' 13-10 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

Lane was making his return from a four-game stint on IR due to a wrist injury, and he set new career highs across the board after having gotten hurt in Week 1. Lane tied for second in receptions and targets while slotting in third in receiving yards on the afternoon for the Ravens. Lane's chemistry with Tyler Huntley was encouraging, but the rookie wideout's fantasy upside could truly be unlocked once he has a stretch of games to work with Lamar Jackson (ankle).

Coleman brought in four of six targets for 59 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 33-30 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

Coleman led the Bills in receiving yards on the afternoon with the help of a 21-yard grab and a 12-yard touchdown reception with just over six minutes remaining in the third quarter. The score was Coleman's third of the season, with the previous two having come in each of the prior pair of contests against the Patriots and Rams. The oft-maligned 2024 second-round pick appears to be picking up some momentum in his third season, as Coleman already has a 19-283-3 line on 24 targets while helping make up for the multiple absences of DJ Moore (shoulder).

Shakir brought in four of six targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 33-30 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

Shakir posted his second-lowest yardage figure of the season, but the talented veteran recorded his first touchdown of the campaign on a nine-yard grab just past the midway point of the second quarter. Shakir's target total also tied for his second highest of the campaign, a figure he'd reached on two other occasions. The fifth-year pro should continue to garner his fair share of Josh Allen's attention moving forward, although Shakir's targets could take a slight hit if DJ Moore (shoulder) returns for a Week 8 home matchup against the Ravens on Sunday, Nov. 1, following a Week 7 bye.

Coker brought in six of 13 targets for 97 yards in the Panthers' 25-14 win over the Eagles on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Carolina.

Making his return from a one-game absence due to a quadriceps injury, Coker picked up right where he left off while tying for the team lead in receptions and setting the pace in both receiving yards and targets. Coker also had a game-long 32-yard catch, and he now has at least six grabs in three of his first four games. With a 24-319-2 line through four contests, the speedy third-year wideout is well on his way to setting new career bests as he heads into a Week 7 home matchup against the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Odunze brought in three of four targets for 39 yards in the Bears' 31-23 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Odunze was third in receiving yards for the Bears on the afternoon, but considering Caleb Williams recorded 30 completions for 305 yards, the wideout's numbers were modest. Odunze has three or fewer catches in all but one game to date in 2026, and his spotty efficiency can sometimes be a hindrance to him maximizing his fantasy potential. Odunze will look to build on his numbers in a Week 7 home matchup against a talented Patriots secondary Thursday night.

Burden secured all eight targets for 95 yards in the Bears' 31-23 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Burden led the Bears in receptions, receiving yards and targets on an afternoon where the returning Caleb Williams threw for 305 yards and just six incompletions. The speedy second-year wideout was the returning signal-caller's favorite target, as the duo quickly rekindled their connection. Burden has made good on the elevated Year 2 expectations to date in 2026, posting a 31-361-1 line on 43 targets over the first six games as a Week 7 home matchup against the Patriots approaches Thursday night.

Cooper brought in six of seven targets for 103 yards and a touchdown in the Jets' 26-19 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

Making his return from a four-game stint on injured reserve due to an ankle sprain suffered on the opening possession of the season, Cooper hit the ground running and finished as the team leader in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The Indiana product also recorded his first NFL touchdown on a 48-yard strike from Geno Smith early in the third quarter, and his instant production despite the layoff gives his fantasy outlook a significant boost heading into a Week 7 home matchup against the Dolphins.

Smith brought in seven of 14 targets for 75 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 25-14 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

Smith had an eventful day in his return from a two-game absence, leading the Eagles in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon. Smith also worked around getting briefly shaken up following a long incompletion where he appeared to have taken a blow to the chest area, and he added his second touchdown reception of the campaign via a 19-yard grab early in the fourth quarter. Smith displayed solid chemistry with fill-in signal-caller Tanner McKee, certainly a welcome development considering Jalen Hurts (IR, calf) is sidelined indefinitely.
