Devin Funchess held to 11 yards in win over the Bucs.

The 23-year-old caught just two passes in a 17-3 offensive struggle. Funchess was arguably one of the biggest disappointments in Week 8, as Tampa Bay was without their top-two corners, but Carolina’s offense was basically shut down anyway. Through eight games, Funchess is on pace for 66 receptions, 714 receiving yards, and six touchdowns. Averaging just 10.8 yards per reception so far, hopefully Funchess can make some big plays after averaging over 15 yards per reception in each of his first two years. He’s a FLEX option against Atlanta in Week 9.

Donte Moncrief catches two passes in Week 7.

Moncrief gained 30 yards on his two receptions (four targets), with a long of 22 yards. He hasn’t hit 70 yards yet this season, and his fantasy value is limited without Andrew Luck in the lineup.

Danny Amendola (knee) is questionable for Week 8.

Amendola was limited in practice this week while dealing with a knee injury, but he’s expected to be ready to go on Sunday. However, it’s no lock, and Amendola might end up seeing a decrease in snaps if he is active. Still, assuming he’s active, Amendola will be a FLEX option in standard leagues with his usual increase in value for PPR leagues.

Jeremy Maclin (shoulder) is inactive for Week 7.

The veteran receiver will miss his second straight game, as he again was listed as questionable and tested the shoulder pregame but isn’t ready to go. With Breshad Perriman (concussion) also out, Mike Wallace could see a lot of targets today against Minnesota—though he might be matched up with lockdown corner Xavier Rhodes for much of the game. After today, the Ravens next play on Thursday night against Miami, and Maclin is expected to be ready for that one.

Josh Hill gets four targets in Saints’ win.

Hill caught three of the four targets, gaining 29 yards against Chicago. He’s not a recommended fantasy option, but Hill is a good target for Drew Brees.

A.J. Derby caught six passes for 66 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Chargers.

Derby also lost a fumble, but he was Denver’s leading receiver in the 21-0 loss. However, he isn’t a fantasy option against Kansas City in Week 8.

Vance McDonald (knee) is out for Week 7.

McDonald was dealing with a bruised knee, according to head coach Mike Tomlin, and it’s bad enough that he wasn’t able to practice all week and won’t play Sunday night against the Lions. The athletic tight end seemed to be getting very comfortable in Pittsburgh’s offense, so this is unfortunate for him. Jesse James and Xavier Grimble will pick up the slack, and James isn’t a bad fantasy option at tight end if you’re struggling at that position with six teams on a bye.
