Denver Broncos wide receiver Jerry Jeudy only had three receptions in the 31-28 comeback win over the Chicago Bears on Sunday in Week 4, but that was enough to give him a team-leading 52 receiving yards. Jeudy also tied for the team lead (with Courtland Sutton) in targets on the day with five. The bad news is that the 24-year-old wasn't the recipient of any of quarterback Russell Wilson's three touchdown passes in the Windy City. Jeudy sat out of the season opener due to a hamstring injury and now has 11 catches on 17 targets for 158 yards and no touchdowns in his first three games of the 2023 season. It's been a pretty mediocre start, but Jeudy is still one of Wilson's favorite targets and should continue to be the rest of the way. He has a tough matchup with the stingy New York Jets defense in Week 5.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba was targeted five times in Week 1 and six times in Week 2, but he is not yet threatening the workloads of DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. The 21-year-old has only been on the field for 58% of snaps and the targets he has seen are at an average depth of just 1.9 yards. In Week 3 against the Panthers, Smith-Njigba will line up against Jimmy Chinn or Troy Hill, who have managed most of the slot corner snaps for Carolina in the first two weeks of the season. Smith-Njigba is definitely worth holding but the only reason to start him in Week 3 is if Metcalf (ribs) is ruled out.
