Lamb brought in 10 of 16 targets for 195 yards and a touchdown in the Cowboys' 27-23 win over the Colts on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

Lamb easily led the Cowboys across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets in a game where Dallas was operating without George Pickens (hamstring). Lamb's yardage total was a new season high, and he rounded out his stellar day with his seventh touchdown catch of the campaign on a 44-yard grab just before halftime. Even his turnover had a bright side to it from a fantasy perspective, as Lamb gained 44 yards on an impressive downfield catch and picked up extra yardage after the Colts initially failed to touch him down before fumbling at the end of that sequence. Lamb has four straight double-digit target games and is just 96 yards away from his sixth consecutive 1,000-yard season heading into a Week 10 home showdown against the 49ers next Sunday.

St. Brown brought in eight of 10 targets for 86 yards in the Lions' 19-9 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

St. Brown set the pace across the board for the Lions in receptions, receiving yards and targets. St. Brown was playing through a rib issue that had limited him throughout the practice week, but he turned in an efficient effort that included his fifth straight game with six ore more catches. St. Brown's touchdown drought did extend to five games, and he'll once again aim to snap it in next Sunday's Week 10 matchup against the Patriots in Germany.

Nabers caught five of eight targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 19-11 win over the Eagles.

Nabers recorded at least 111 receiving yards in four consecutive games prior to the Giants' Week 8 bye but failed to extend that streak in Sunday's low-scoring win, during which J.J. McCarthy (hip) and Jameis Winston combined to throw for just 198 yards. The star wide receiver led the team with eight targets but finished third in receiving yards behind Darnell Mooney (54) and Isaiah Likely (53). Nabers had his hands on what would have been a 20-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter but failed to secure a diving catch attempt. McCarthy left in the third quarter but managed to return later in the second half and can be tentatively penciled in as the starting QB for Thursday's home game against the leaky Commanders pass defense.

McConkey (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Texans.

Prior to his first-quarter exit, McConkey wasn't targeted by QB Justin Herbert. His absence leaves Quentin Johnston, Tre' Harris, KeAndre Lambert-Smith and Derius Davis as the Chargers' available WRs versus Houston.

Worthy (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's game against the Jets.

Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com previously noted that Worthy immediately grabbed his hamstring and was unable to put weight on his leg after sustaining his injury Sunday. That Worthy was so quickly ruled out for the remainder of the contest is certainly concerning in terms of his status for next week's game against the Falcons. In his absence versus the Jets, Cyrus Allen, Jalen Royals, Andrew Armstrong and Nikko Remigio are available to work behind top WR Rashee Rice.

Worthy left Sunday's game against the Jets with an apparent leg injury, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Per Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com, Worthy immediately grabbed his hamstring and was unable to put weight on his leg before heading to the blue medical tent to get checked out. Prior to his exit from the contest, Worthy caught all six of his targets for 48 yards.

Mingo (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against the Colts, Patrik Walker of the Cowboys' official site reports.

Mingo was hurt in the second half and may not be able to return to the game. Prior to his exit, he caught one of three targets for 23 yards. With George Pickens (hamstring) and KaVontae Turpin (ribs) inactive Sunday, the Cowboys will be down to CeeDee Lamb, Ryan Flournoy, Camden Brown and Jordan Hudson at wideout if Mingo can't return.

Concepcion returned to Sunday's game against the Saints after previously appearing to injure his right leg, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

Cabot initially reported that Concepcion couldn't put weight on his right leg after an sustaining an apparent non-contact injury. However, following the injury scare, the rookie WR is back on the field to reclaim his key role in the Browns' passing offense.

Thornton (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

Thornton recovered from a back injury Friday and entered the weekend with no injury designation. The wide receiver's inactive status, despite his health, points to some other motive from coach Klint Kubiak. Dareke Young is set to be the No. 4 wide receiver in Thornton's place.

Benson (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's battle against San Francisco.

It's the second straight week the rookie wideout is a healthy scratch. Benson hasn't been able to gain much traction in the offense this season, as he's notched just two catches for 12 yards on nine targets through seven games. He's also contributed as a punt returner, and Dylan Laube could assume that role in Benson's absence Sunday.
