Robby Anderson scores against the Bills.

Anderson was targeted five times tonight, catching four passes for 48 yards and a touchdown. The score was a 25-yarder on a throw to the end zone on a nice throw from quarterback Josh McCown. This makes three-straight weeks with a touchdown for the second-year receiver, so he’ll look to keep it going in a good matchup with the Bucs in Week 10.

Alshon Jeffery scores twice against the Broncos.

In what on paper might’ve been his toughest matchup of the year, Jeffery had his best game as an Eagle so far, catching six of 11 targets for 84 yards and two touchdowns. The first touchdown was on a zone read run-pass option where Carson Wentz kept the ball and then threw it to a streaking Jeffery down the sideline after he got by a flat-footed Aqib Talib. The second touchdown was on a crossing route in the end zone where Jeffery beat Talib again. Jeffery will look to keep things going after the Eagles’ Week 10 bye.

Jeremy Kerley (foot) did not return to tonight’s game.

Kerley didn’t catch any passes before leaving the game. With a suspension reportedly hanging over his head, Kerley does not need to be on fantasy rosters.

Austin Hooper gets six targets in Week 9.

Hooper caught three passes for 36 yards against the Panthers, and a deep throw intended for him was intercepted. The second-year tight end is currently on pace for 50 receptions, 662 yards, and four touchdowns this season, so he’s making clear progress from his rookie season. He gets the Cowboys next week.

Elijah McGuire gets 14 touches in Week 9.

McGuire worked as the secondary guy in the committee, behind Matt Forte and ahead of Bilal Powell. The rookie running back had 13 carries for 30 yards and one reception (on one target) for nine yards. He was also in there at the end of the game with the Jets trying to finally end the long game, so that’s a good sign. For now, Forte seems like the guy to put in fantasy lineups, os McGuire doesn’t need to be on fantasy rosters right now.

Jack Doyle catches game-high eight passes in win over the Texans.

Doyle had eight receptions for 63 yards, and he was an effective target underneath for quarterback Jacoby Brissett. The 27-year-old now has 20 catches over the past two weeks, and he will look to keep it going against the Steelers in Week 10. He’s a solid TE1, particularly in PPR leagues.

Bilal Powell carries nine times in Jets’ win.

Powell was third in the running back rotation against the Bills, but he had the longest carry of the game (51 yards). Overall, Powell had nine carries for 74 yards and a touchdown in the Week 9 victory. The long run was a very nice run by Powell, but it was also some very poor tackling by the Bills—something that happened a lot throughout the game. Powell has some major game-breaking ability, but he’s difficult to trust in fantasy lineups at the moment. It’s possible he gets the most touches in the backfield committee next week, though.
