Pierce (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

The running back is now a healthy scratch for the fifth time in eight games this season. Nick Chubb and Woody Marks continue to hold down Houston's backfield. Pierce has played on just 23 offensive snaps this year, carrying the ball 10 times for 26 yards and no scores.

Pierce didn't log any snaps on offense and returned three kickoffs for 70 yards in Sunday's 26-15 win over San Francisco.

Even with Joe Mixon (foot) missing in action, Pierce has been a forgotten piece on offense and had been a healthy inactive in four of the Texans' first six contests before suiting up Sunday. He has experience as a kickoff returner and could carve out a role on special teams going forward, but Pierce's chances of reclaiming a significant role in the backfield are slim, as Nick Chubb and Woody Marks have formed a fairly effective tandem.

Sutton caught just one of six targets for a 30-yard touchdown in Sunday's 18-15 win over the Texans.

The Texans' secondary did a good job of blanketing Sutton most of the afternoon, but he was able to beat Derek Stingley down the sideline for a TD late in the second quarter. Sutton snapped a four-game scoring drought with the catch, but it's the third time in nine contests he's been held to only one grab, leaving him with a 38-566-4 line on 62 targets for the season. The veteran wideout should be much more productive against a more vulnerable defense in a Week 10 home tilt against the Raiders.

Sutton finished with four receptions on six targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 44-24 win over the Cowboys.

Sutton took a back seat to Denver's younger receiving options Sunday, watching Troy Franklin, Pat Bryant and RJ Harvey collect all of Bo Nix's touchdown passes in the blowout win. The veteran starter still produced adequate receiving totals despite failing to reach the end zone, duplicating the 67.0 yards/game average he posted over his previous seven appearances. Fantasy managers are hoping Sutton can return to the end zone against the Texans in Week 9 after he scored all three of his touchdowns in Denver's first four games of the season.

Olave accrued three receptions (on four targets) for 57 yards during Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Rams.

Olave was not the primary target for rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, who made his first career start Sunday after replacing previous QB1 Spencer Rattler at the end of the Week 8 loss to Tampa Bay. Instead, No.2 wide receiver Rashid Shaheed led the Saints with nine targets. Olave tied with tight end Juwan Johnson for the team's second-most targets, which represented a season low for the wideout. It didn't help that LA dominated New Orleans in time of possession 43:53-16:07. If the Saints' offense continues to struggle at this rate, Olave could be in store for another low output Week 10 versus division-rival Carolina.

Olave corralled eight of 12 targets for 63 yards while losing three yards on his only rush attempt in Sunday's 23-3 loss to Tampa Bay.

Olave was unable to replicate last week's multi-score performance, but he still escaped Sunday's one-sided loss with a solid PPR score. The Saints' top wideout finished with double-digit targets for the sixth time in eight appearances this season. Olave has surpassed last year's production in an injury-shortened season with a 52-503-3 receiving line through eight starts in 2025. The Ohio State product checks in as New Orleans' safest fantasy option heading into next Sunday's tilt against the Rams.

Olave (ankle) won't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay, Matthew Paras of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Saints coach Kellen More preempted the final injury report, telling reporters Friday that none of his injured players will have injury designations. Olave is coming off a two-TD performance Week 7 in Chicago, where his dominant volume finally translated to big-time production, though it was actually a down week for him targets-wise (seven). He got double-digit looks in five of the Saints' first six games of the season.

Smith secured three of five targets for 25 yards during Sunday's 27-20 win over the Colts.

Smith secured two of three targets for 17 yards during Sunday's 35-25 loss to the Packers.
