New England Patriots wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster hauled in five of six targets for just 28 yards against the Miami Dolphins on Sunday night. He played 59 percent of snaps, splitting opportunities with Kendrick Bourne while DeVante Parker (100 percent) and Hunter Henry (92 percent) dominated the receiving attack. Post-Week 1 rumors exposed the Patriots' lack of trust in Smith-Schuster, which has now been on display for two consecutive games. He's a fantasy WR5 who can be left on waivers in many formats.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens finished with four receptions for 127 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets in a 26-22 victory over the Cleveland Browns. The 22-year-old led Pittsburgh's pass-catchers in targets and yards on Monday night and was the team's only offensive player to find the end zone. He did so after getting wide open over the middle of the field and taking a pass from quarterback Kenny Pickett 71 yards to the house. With Diontae Johnson (hamstring) on Injured Reserve, Pickens should continue to be the clear WR1 for the Steelers through their Week 6 bye. Pickens will look to capitalize on his opportunity once again in Week 3 in a soft matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders.
