Outlook Joshua Palmer
Ruled Out for Week 5 Road Matchup Against the Rams
Palmer surfaced on Friday's injury report with a shoulder issue and has officially been ruled out for Week 5 against the Rams. Through three games this season, he has operated as a starting outside receiver opposite DJ Moore, finding the end zone twice across nine targets. Fantasy managers should monitor his practice participation heading into Week 6 to gauge his potential return.
With Palmer unavailable, our weekly projection rightfully sits at zero points. Currently rostered in only 2% of leagues, he is largely a deep-league stash rather than an everyday fantasy contributor. Be sure to remove him from active lineups this week, check back often for updates on his shoulder recovery, and look elsewhere for wide receiver depth.

Outlook Ty Johnson
Ty Johnson at Las Vegas — Passing-Down Role Offers Sneaky PPR Appeal
Ty Johnson operates as Buffalo's pass-catching change of pace behind James Cook III and Ray Davis. Johnson sees minimal rushing work—logging just one carry across his last two games—but has carved out a reliable passing role. Over the past two weeks, he caught all six targets for 81 receiving yards, and he could see steady checkdown looks with wide receiver DJ Moore ruled out.
Our weekly projection targets 6.1 fantasy points, expecting around two receptions and 30 total yards in a high-scoring dome matchup. Started in just 2% of leagues, Johnson lacks standard-league appeal, but his recent target volume makes him a usable deep-league play in PPR formats if you need an emergency floor.
