Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught six of his nine targets for 80 yards during Thursday's Week 6 loss to the New York Giants. Brown tied his season high in receptions and now has at least eight targets in five consecutive games. While his yardage has varied from week to week, and he still has just one touchdown this year, the star receiver appears to be trending in the right direction following his early-season frustrations. He should rank as a solid WR2 option for Week 7 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey finally reached the end zone on Sunday, catching five of seven targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in the team's 27-10 loss to the Washington Commanders. It was a much-needed bounce-back after last week's poor performance, demonstrating that he can be trusted again in short-yardage and red-zone situations. He also had a 57-yard punt return touchdown called back by a penalty, one of 10 penalties that disrupted L.A.'s rhythm all day. With rookie running back Omarion Hampton (ankle) placed on IR, the Chargers might need to rely more on their receivers, and McConkey's dependable hands could earn him more targets against a vulnerable Miami Dolphins secondary in Week 6.
