Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown caught nine of 13 targets for 175 yards and two touchdowns during the team's 34-31 overtime win over the Washington Commanders. The 26-year-old led the receiver corps in targets by a wide margin for the second week in a row and had an even bigger performance while catching his first two touchdowns of the season. Fantasy managers' fears that Brown was taking a back seat to teammate DeVonta Smith have been quelled. The fifth-year receiver will travel to Los Angeles next week to take on a better than previously thought Rams defense, which ranks toward the top of the league against fantasy wide receivers. With that said, Brown will be a must-start in that matchup.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave had a disappointing outing on Sunday, grabbing only one of six targets for just four yards. Olave nearly hauled in a deep pass in the end zone which would have salvaged his fantasy day, but the attempt was broken up. While Olave's fantasy day was disappointing, he should remain in lineups. It was an overall bad day for the New Orleans offense, and Olave will remain the top target for quarterback Derek Carr.
