Join now >Mike Evans caught five passes for 60 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Panthers.
Considering the overall offensive struggles for Tampa Bay (and the game in general), it wasn’t a bad performance by Evans. The star receiver is still probably being overvalued as a high-end WR1 play, but he should be in lineups as a quality WR1 against the Saints next Sunday. It’s worth noting that New Orleans has held him in check, though, and they are an improved unit this season.

Shane Vereen gets five touches against the Seahawks.
Vereen picked up four rushing yards on two carries and two receiving yards on three receptions. He should have some more room to do some damage when the Giants return form their Week 8 bye to face the Rams in a couple weeks.

Zach Ertz scores again in Week 8 win.
Ertz caught four passes for 34 yards, including a one-yard touchdown reception in the second quarter. The talented tight end now has five touchdowns over his past four games, and he’s on pace for a breakout 86/1,056/12 line as a fifth-year player. Ertz will probably be a big part of the game plan against Denver next Sunday, and he’s the top fantasy option with Rob Gronkowski on a bye.

T.Y. Hilton gets eight targets in Week 7.
The Jaguars did a good job of limiting Hilton, as he had only two receptions for 27 yards in the game. After the shutout loss in which Jacoby Brissett was sacked ten times by Jacksonville, Hilton said the offensive line needs to play better—so hopefully nothing bad comes of publicly criticizing his teammates. Hilton is averaging 19.0 yards per catch this season even without Andrew Luck, but he’s had two quiet games in a row. He gets the Bengals next week, but the game is on the road in Cincinnati.

Rex Burkhead plays well in Week 8.
Burkhead carried four times for 15 yards and worked as a reliable target for Tom Brady, catching all seven targets and gaining 68 receiving yards against the Chargers. This is something we could see a lot more from a healthy Burkhead moving forward, but he’s not yet a trustworthy fantasy option, especially with his next matchup coming against the Broncos in Week 10.

Emmanuel Sanders (ankle) is questionable for Monday Night Football.
We were waiting for the Broncos to release their injury report to make it official, but head coach Vance McDonald said Sanders is questionable against the Chiefs. Maybe he’ll tough it out and play, but we’d expect him to miss another game. If you want to insert Sanders into your lineup, just be sure to have someone else you can put in if Sanders is inactive.

Michael Floyd (hamstring) is inactive against the Ravens.
Stefon Diggs (groin) was already declared inactive on Friday, so the Vikings are thin at receiver in a matchup versus the Ravens. Jarius Wright will be the third receiver behind Adam Thielen and Laquon Treadwell, though Thielen is the only recommended fantasy option in a very difficult matchup.
