New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte scored his fourth touchdown in his last three games in Week 8, recording three catches for 75 yards and a score on five targets against the Cleveland Browns. The 23-year-old has now hauled in 23 catches for 431 yards and five touchdowns on 30 targets across eight games so far this season. Boutte has been a big-play merchant for New England, averaging 18.7 yards per reception. Perhaps most encouraging for his fantasy outlook, Boutte has led Patriots wide receivers in snaps in each of the team's eight games. Boutte's average of 3.8 targets per game leaves something to be desired. Still, with his explosive play ability and playing time floor, he profiles as a boom/bust deep league flex option and could be a player to target on the waiver wire heading into a Week 9 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons.

Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jaylin Lane had some positive moments in his extended opportunity in Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys, catching three of six targets for 60 yards. Lane played easily his highest snap share of the season at 70.3% and led Washington in receiving yards. The fourth-round rookie out of Virginia Tech has been a key contributor on special teams and has made some plays on offense, with Washington dealing with injuries to their top three wide receivers. Both Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel Sr. are set to return in Week 8 against the Chiefs, likely relegating Lane back to a depth role. There is still plenty of intrigue for Lane in dynasty leagues, but he can be dropped in redraft leagues.
