Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dyami Brown (shoulder) has been removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 5 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Brown is ready to return to action after missing last week's contest. He was limited in practice all week, but that won't hold him out of this Monday night matchup. Through three games, Brown has 10 receptions for 116 yards and one touchdown. Brown could offer some low-end flex value in deep leagues, but should probably be on the bench in most fantasy formats this weekend.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka caught all seven of his targets for 163 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 5 win over the Seattle Seahawks. The 22-year-old posted the highest reception and yardage totals of his young career, and he also scored his fifth touchdown in as many games. Egbuka has shown that he can handle matchups against opposing defenses' best cornerbacks, and he has established himself as Baker Mayfield's favorite target over players like Chris Godwin and Cade Otton. Egbuka should be deployed as a mid-range WR1 in fantasy football going forward. He has achieved must-start status and remains a fantasy staple regardless of his matchup. Look for him to dominate once again next week against the San Francisco 49ers.
