The Miami Dolphins placed wide receiver Braxton Berrios (knee) on Injured Reserve on Monday, which means he'll have to miss at least the next four games. Berrios will go on IR after injuring his knee in the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 7 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The earliest that the 29-year-old can return would be for a Week 12 matchup against the division-rival New England Patriots. Berrios wasn't on the fantasy radar to begin with, as he was unable to haul in any of the four targets he saw in six games played this year. The Dolphins will move forward with Tyreek Hill, Jaylen Waddle, Odell Beckham Jr. and Malik Washington as their four receivers. With quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) potentially returning in Week 8 against the Arizona Cardinals, the fantasy value of both Hill and Waddle is about to get a shot in the arm.

Houston Texans wide receiver Xavier Hutchinson should continue to see a higher-than-normal volume of snaps, making him a high-risk option in deep leagues for a Week 7 game at Green Bay. Houston's top wide receiver, Nico Collins, will miss at least three more games on injured reserve, thrusting the second-year receiver into more playing time. Hutchinson played 71% and 50% of Houston's snaps the past two weeks, respectively, but he has just two catches for 31 yards on five targets from the increased playing time. Fellow receivers Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell should continue to command significantly more targets, however, making it tough for fantasy managers to trust Hutchinson, even in formats with multiple flex positions.
