  • Rams' Colby Parkinson: Secures five catches in Week 7 win

    Parkinson caught five of six targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 35-21 win over the Raiders.

    With Davante Adams (hamstring) and Terrance Ferguson (ankle) both out and injured for Los Angeles, Parkinson's six targets were second on the team behind Puka Nacua's 10. The tight end ran just 14 routes on Matthew Stafford's 32 dropbacks, but Los Angeles used multiple tight ends, led by Tyler Higbee's 18 routes. Parkinson is more of a touchdown-or-bust fringe TE1/2 headed into Week 8 against the Chargers.

    Rams' Davis Allen: Catches two TDs in Week 7 win

    Allen caught four of five targets for 20 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 35-21 win over the Raiders.

    With Davante Adams (hamstring) and Terrance Ferguson (ankle) sidelined for the Rams, Allen was thrust into an elevated role on offense for Los Angeles. He ended up running just 12 routes on Matthew Stafford's 32 dropbacks but made the most of his chances, particularly in the red zone, where Allen caught three- and five-yard touchdowns in the first half. Allen's volume of routes isn't enough to make him a reliable fantasy option moving forward.

  • Raiders' Ashton Jeanty: Much more effective as receiver

    Jeanty rushed eight times for 15 yards and brought in all eight targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in the Raiders' 35-21 loss to the Rams on Sunday.

    The Rams stonewalled Jeanty on the ground, but the 2025 first-round pick was highly effective as a receiver. Jeanty led the Raiders in receptions and tied for second in targets, and his 15-yard grab came when the running back ran past Kamren Curl down the right sideline early in the fourth quarter. Jeanty has been under 30 rushing yards in three straight games, but he's up to a 34-312-3 receiving line on 44 targets going into a Week 8 road matchup against the Jets next Sunday.

  • Panthers' Ryan Fitzgerald: Limited action in blowout loss

    Fitzgerald did not attempt a field goal and went 1-for-2 on extra-point tries during Sunday's 43-13 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Fitzgerald went without a field-goal attempt for the first time in his two-year career, and to make matters worse, he registered his fifth missed PAT of the season. The kicker has now gone 11-for-11 on field-goal tries while converting 12 of 17 extra-point attempts over six regular-season contests this year.

  • Tucker Kraft TE | GB

    Packers' Tucker Kraft: Records second TD of season

    Kraft compiled four catches (on six targets) for 48 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 20-17 loss at Detroit.

    Kraft's 14-yard TD connection with QB Jordan Love late in the first quarter marked the tight end's second end-zone visit in seven games on the season. Having said that, Kraft has surpassed 50 receiving yards in just two contests, leaving him on a 29-297-2 line on 43 targets to date. WRs Matthew Golden (12 targets Sunday) and Christian Watson (eight) continue to dominate the attention of Love so far, meaning Kraft is the third option at best in the Packers' passing attack at the moment.

  • Brock Bowers TE | LV

    Raiders' Brock Bowers: Six catches in Week 7 loss

    Bowers secured six of eight targets for 73 yards in the Raiders' 35-21 loss to the Rams on Sunday.

    The ultra-talented tight end put together another solid performance, finishing second in receptions and receiving yards for the Raiders while also tying for runner-up status in targets. Bowers has at least 70 receiving yards in all five games, and he's recorded at least six catches in four of those contests. Bowers will undoubtedly remain a critical part of the air attack in a Week 8 road matchup against the Jets next Sunday.

  • Giants' Dominic Zvada: Misses both FGAs in Week 7

    Zvada missed both of his field-goal attempts and 3-for-3 on extra-point tries during Sunday's 27-21 overtime win against Houston.

    Zvada had a rough week, missing a 56-yard try in the first quarter before pushing a 44-yarder wide right in the second quarter. The kicker has now gone 4-for-9 on field-goal tries over the last three weeks, and he'll have a chance to reset during the team's bye week in Week 8.

  • Packers' Matthew Golden: Makes six catches Sunday

    Golden gathered in six of 12 targets for 39 yards during Sunday's 20-17 defeat in Detroit.

    Golden has been targeted at least 12 times by QB Jordan Love in four of seven appearances this season, resulting in three 100-yard efforts to date. Drops and near misses between the two continue to be a feature in the Packers offense, though, as Golden has recorded a catch rate of 50 percent or better four times, with his mark in 2026 sitting at only 52.2 percent. Golden and Green Bay next have a Thursday night matchup with the Panthers on the docket in Week 8.

  • Kyren Williams RB | LAR

    Rams' Kyren Williams: Tallies 121 scrimmage yards, TD in win

    Williams rushed 16 times for 99 yards and a touchdown and brought in both targets for 22 yards in the Rams' 35-21 win over the Raiders on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

    Williams logged one fewer carry than Blake Corum but outgained his teammate by six yards, and although the former's lost fumble came at the Rams' 30-yard line, it didn't lead to any Raiders points. Williams scored his fifth rushing touchdown of the campaign on a 17-yard run late in the first half, and he fell a yard short of his first 100-yard effort of the season. Despite the division of labor in a game that yielded a run-friendly game script, Williams will remain the clear lead runner in a Week 8 home matchup against the Chargers next Sunday.

  • Packers' Christian Watson: Five more catches in Week 7

    Watson notched five catches (on eight targets) for 57 yards and no touchdowns during Sunday's 20-17 defeat at Detroit.

    Watson's team-high 28-yard catch in the second quarter got the Packers into the red zone for the third time in Week 7, but after a Jordan Love to Tucker Kraft TD connection on the team's second possession, Green Bay otherwise failed to score on three of four trips to premium territory. Watson himself paced the team in receiving yards Sunday, but he also wasn't able to score a TD for the third time in the last four games, leaving him sitting on six scores in seven appearances. He and his teammates have a quick turnaround with a Thursday night matchup with the Panthers on tap in Week 8.
