The Steelers also signed QB Logan Woodside. Peat appeared in 15 games last year and made one start at left guard. The former first-round pick spent nearly the first decade of his career in New Orleans. He played primarily at left guard but still logged almost 2,000 snaps at left tackle over the years. Peat will be a versatile backup for a young Pittsburgh line.

Mims also added three rushing yards on his lone carry. Troy Franklin and Mims split the WR3 role in this game, but the former failed to reel in either of his two targets. Mims, on the other hand, picked up 47 yards on a catch-and-run that saw him juke an Arizona defender out of his cleats. With Jaylen Waddle banged up, the WR2 role might be up for grabs next week. That would put both Mims and Franklin in the FLEX mix versus Kansas City, though we would look to aim higher on the waiver wire.

Golden’s 12 targets led all Packers receivers, but the speedster was unable to convert them into anything meaningful. Of the 12 targets Golden saw, four came on passes of 20-plus air yards. He managed to secure one of those passes for a 22-yard gain, but that was all he could manage in what ended up being a relatively low-scoring game despite the two teams combining for over 700 offensive yards. The 39 yards Golden posted on Sunday were good for his second-lowest total of the season, but he’s an air-yards king who is seeing the kind of volume we expect of a true WR1. He’s primed for a bounce-back in next week’s game against the Panthers.

Cousins, as per usual, did next to nothing before the Raiders got down by multiple scores in the second half. He ends with a pretty solid fantasy line thanks to a couple long connections with fellow garbage time merchant Tre Tucker, who led the Raiders with 108 yards and a score. Cousins’ other score went to the Raiders’ backfield garbage time merchant Ashton Jeanty. Cousins now has multiple touchdown throws in six of his seven games in 2026. The Fernando Mendoza clock is nearing midnight as the uncompetitive Raiders flounder and Cousins looks more washed by the week. If he still has the starting job by Week 8, Cousins will be a decent streaming option against the Jets.

Sutton’s 45 yards today were one shy of his season-high, which mostly speaks to how quiet the veteran wideout has been this year. He has only topped 25 yards twice and has just one touchdown to his name. Jaylen Waddle injured his chest late in this contest and could be out for Week 8. That would funnel a few more targets Sutton’s way, but it’s not like Waddle was putting up loads of counting stats that now shift to Sutton. Even if Waddle is out for Week 8 versus the Chiefs, Sutton would have a hard time pushing past the WR4 ranks.

Mumpfield saw a bump in snaps and routes but not so much in actual targets and receptions as the Rams went all in on three tight ends sets with Davante Adams (hamstring) sidelined for the foreseeable future. Mumpfield doesn’t need to be rostered in fantasy leagues for now.

Coleman returned to action after missing a month because of an ankle injury. He was immediately in the mix for touches and saw three opportunities before RJ Harvey got his first look. Coleman went on to lead the Broncos in carries. Both he and Harvey earned two targets apiece. Unfortunately for Coleman, he was the only Denver back who didn’t find the end zone in Week 7. Coleman has made a mess of a backfield that had just begun to stabilize. Now all three Denver backs will be low-end FLEX options for Week 8 versus the Chiefs.

Allgeier only saw one more carry than Bam Knight. Both backs caught three passes, but Knight was the recipient of five targets. Through two Jeremiyah Love absences, Allgeier has 26 carries for 57 yards. He’s barely playing ahead of Knight and has been the far less efficient member of the backfield. Knight has 128 yards on four fewer attempts. Even if Love is out again next week, Allgeier will barely crack the RB3 ranks versus Dallas.

Bowers seemed to be battling some sort of minor injury for most of the game, missing a few high leverage plays while staying loose on the sideline. Bowers was second on the team in targets behind Tre Tucker (12), who did most of his damage in garbage time. Bowers, who has at least nine targets in every game this season, has as high a weekly floor as any tight end in recent memory. Hopefully he’ll be able to explore some of his upside in Week 8 against the Jets.

Knight only saw one fewer carry than Tyler Allgeier. His 29-yard scamper in the first quarter alone was enough to best Allgeier’s mark of 19 yards. Knight had a chance to get in the end zone on a strike from Jacoby Brissett, but he dropped the would-be touchdown and Arizona had to settle for a field goal. It’s unclear if Jeremiyah Love will be back next week. If he isn’t, Knight will once again operate as the 1B in this backfield, putting him in the RB3/4 mix versus Dallas.

Brissett struggled to get the deep ball going in this game and was largely stuck dinking and dunking his way down the field. He averaged a measly 5.7 yards per attempt while completing 56.3 percent of his passes. Brissett hasn’t averaged seven yards per attempt in a game since Week 1. Even worse is the fact that he’s taking bone-crushing hits more than ever. Brissett injured his non-throwing hand while taking a sack late in the second quarter but never missed any time with the issue. We expect him to make an appearance on the injury report this week. Head coach Mike LaFleur told reporters after the game that Brissett remains the starter, meaning he’ll take on a terrible Dallas defense next week. He will be a priority streamer for Week 8.
