Davante Adams Continues to Excel in Top Role Despite Tough Matchup

Sunday, September 27, 8:29 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams caught seven of his 13 targets for 137 yards during Sunday's Week 3 loss against the Denver Broncos. Adams saw a heavy dose of Denver Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II, and the two competed in impressive fashion all night long. Both players won their fair share of battles, but Adams and the Rams have to be pleased with his performance. Adams has spent the last two weeks operating as the Rams' No. 1 receiver with Puka Nacua (hip, groin) sidelined, and he has proven that he is still a superstar weapon in the passing game. In two games without Nacua, Adams has totaled 15 catches, 332 yards, and two touchdowns. The 33-year-old will remain a must-start receiver in Week 4 against the Eagles, regardless of whether Nacua returns to action.

Malik Washington Emerging as a High-Floor Waiver Wire Target in PPR Formats

Monday, September 28, 12:47 PM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Malik Washington had another high-usage game in his team's Week 3 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, recording five catches for 56 yards on 10 targets. The 25-year-old has been heavily featured in his team's passing game early on in 2026, recording 12 catches for 152 yards on 23 targets across three games. Now in his third NFL season, Washington has never been the most efficient wide receiver on a per-target basis, and he may struggle to see consistent touchdown opportunities while playing for the struggling Dolphins offense. Still, Washington appears to be a trusted short-area target for Miami quarterback Malik Willis. As long as he continues to see a heavy target share, Washington profiles as a high-floor wide receiver for fantasy managers to target on the waiver wire in PPR-scoring formats.
