Another week of NFL football is in the books, let’s hop around the league and see where every wide receiver 1 stacks up so far.
32. Kansas City Chiefs Skyy Moore (Last Week #32)
Skyy Moore has been a huge disappointment for the Chiefs this year. Kansas City’s second-round pick backed up his Week 4 goose eggs with another meaningless performance snagging two catches for 11 yards.
31. New York Giants Darius Slayton (Last Week #31)
Darius Slayton has continued to struggle as the Giants’ number one. He caught two of four targets against Miami for 35 yards in a brutal loss.
30. New England Patriots Devante Parker (Last Week #29)
The Patriots offense looks horrendous and their “WR 1” is a big reason why. Parker has really struggled to produce this year and Week 5 was no exception. He caught two of four targets for 20 yards as New England got thumped by the Saints.

29. Denver Broncos Courtland Sutton (Last Week #25)
Courtland Sutton was a complete nonfactor for the Broncos Week 5 against a tough Jets D. He struggled to get separation and was only target three times, one of which he caught for a pedestrian 13 yards.
28. Baltimore Ravens Zay Flowers (Last Week #24)
Zay Flowers actually put up one of his better stat lines of the season, catching five passes for 73 yards, but he was rather inefficient, considering he was targeted 11 times. Not to mention that he had a couple of absolutely back-breaking drops.
27. Green Bay Packers Romeo Doubs (Last Week #13)
Doubs was a near zero for Green Bay on Monday Night. The Packers wideout caught just one pass for four yards and looks like he will be officially unseated as WR1 now that Christian Watson is back and healthy.
26. New Orleans Saints Michael Thomas (Last Week #26)
Another underwhelming showing from Michael Thomas. The Saints wideout caught four passes for 65 yards. It now seems undeniable that the All-Pro version of Thomas no longer exists and he’s turned into just another mediocre receiver.
25. Arizona Cardinals Marquise Brown (Last Week #17)
Joshua Dobbs looked for Brown a lot this week, 10 times to be exact. Cinci was all over him though, holding him to just four catches—though he did do well to convert those into 61 yards and a touchdown.
24. Carolina Panthers DJ Chark Jr. (Last Week #30)
DJ Chark had his best game of the year for Carolina, though that’s not saying much. He caught three passes for 42 yards a touchdown.
23. Minnesota Vikings Jordan Addison (Last Week N/A)
With Justin Jefferson now sidelined indefinitely, Jordan Addison is really going to need to step up. He got off to a solid start this week, catching six passes for 64 yards and a TD against a strong Chiefs defense.
22. BYE Cleveland Browns Amari Cooper (Last Week #22)
Amari Cooper stays put in the rankings this week, as the Browns were on bye. Hopefully, they rested up because they have a tough matchup with San Fran approaching.
21. Indianapolis Colts Michael Pittman Jr. (Last Week #21)
Not Michael Pittman’s best game, but not his worst. He was a modest contributor in the Colts’ big divisional win over Tennessee, catching five of seven targets for 52 yards.
20. Atlanta Falcons Drake London (Last Week #27)
Drake London was surprisingly busy this week, as Desmond Ridder found his large receiving target downfield six times for 78 yards in one of the better games of his young career.
19. Dallas Cowboys CeeDee Lamb (Last Week #14)
Nothing went right for the Dallas Cowboys this week against San Francisco. CeeDee played alright though, catching four balls for 49 yards despite a terrible showing from Dak Prescott.
18. Washington Commanders Terry McLaurin (Last Week #12)
Tough week for Terry McLaurin and the Commanders, as they struggled to get anything going against the Bears. Sam Howell put up big numbers, but only looked McLaurin’s way five times.
17. New York Jets Garrett Wilson (Last Week #18)
Garrett Wilson and the rest of the Jets offense have their hands full trying to keep the ship afloat with Zach Wilson under center. New York’s young star ran hard all game though and managed to turn his three catches into 54 yards in a critical win.
16. San Francisco 49ers Deebo Samuel (Last Week #15)
Deebo had a relatively modest week, though San Francisco clearly didn’t need much out of him this week. Samuel caught all three of his targets for 55 yards and chipped in five carries for 30 yards.
15. BYE Seattle Seahawks DK Metcalf (Last Week #16)
DK slides up one spot on the bye thanks to some movement around him, but he’ll have a chance to put up some numbers this week against a Bengals defense that has been inconsistent thus far in 2023.
14. Detroit Lions Amon-Ra St. Brown (Last Week #7)
Amon-Ra St. Brown was a late scratch last week, perhaps as a cautionary matter since Detroit clearly didn’t need their star wide receiver to pummel the Panthers.
He should be back in action this week and will have a chance to regain ground in the rankings.
13. Jacksonville Jaguars Calvin Ridley (Last Week #23)
Calvin Ridley finally looks like he is starting to regain form after his extended absence from the game. The Jags star caught seven passes for 122 yards in a big win over Buffalo.
12. Houston Texans Nico Collins (Last Week #6)
Down week for Nico Collins after a scorching hot start to the year. The Texans receiver fell six spots with his three-catch, 39-yard performance.
11. Las Vegas Raiders Davante Adams (Last Week #9)
The Raiders are not a very good football team, but they did manage to find their way into the win column this week against the Green Bay Packers. Davante Adams had a relatively quiet night though, catching just four passes for 45 yards.
Still, he’s been one of the top wideouts in the league all year and it will take more than one down week for him to really tumble in the rankings.
10. Pittsburgh Steelers Geroge Pickens (Last Week #28)
If Kenny Pickett and the Steelers offensive line can start to find some rhythm, we may see George Pickens go on a tear. The young wide receiver had a huge week, catching six passes for 130 yards and a touchdown, helping to keep the Steelers’ young season alive.
9. BYE Tampa Bay Buccaneers Mike Evans (Last Week #10)
Mike Evans had the good fortune of some of his peers struggling this week, causing him to slide up one spot on the bye. The Buccaneers’ veteran star will have to have a big game for them this upcoming week, as Tampa welcomes a strong Detroit Lions team into town.
8. Tennessee Titans Deandre Hopkins (Last Week #19)
Deandre Hopkins looked revitalized this week and was really the only source of offense for the Titans all game. He caught eight passes for 140 yards, but Tennessee fell to Indy, 23-16.
Tennessee needs to start getting the rest of its offense going if it wants any chance at contending for a playoff bid.
7. BYE Los Angeles Chargers Keenan Allen (Last Week #8)
Keenan Allen got a chance to rest his body this week with the Chargers on an early-season bye. He may have a chance to put up big numbers on Monday Night Football, he’s facing off against a Cowboys secondary that has been battered with injuries and reeling over the last couple of weeks.
6. Philadelphia Eagles AJ Brown (Last Week #3)
AJ Brown has now put up his third consecutive 100-yard game after his minor altercation with Jalen Hurts, snagging six of eight targets for 127 yards in a convincing Eagles win.
5. Los Angeles Rams Cooper Kupp (Last Week N/A)
Cooper Kupp is officially back and looks healthy as a horse. The Rams true WR1 did well this week to blend into what the offense was doing in his absence and caught eight passes for 118 yards.
4. Chicago Bears DJ Moore (Last Week #20)
Now this is the kind of production that the Bears were looking for out of DJ Moore when they brought him in this offseason to help foster Justin Field’s development. He exploded on the Commanders for 230 yards and three touchdowns on eight catches
3. Miami Dolphins Tyreek Hill (Last Week #5)
Another monster performance from Tyreek Hill this week, as he lit up the Giants defense for eight catches, 181 yards, and one touchdown.
2. Cincinnati Bengals Ja’Marr Chase (Last Week #11)
What an epic showing from Ja’Marr Chase in Week 5. After declaring to the world that the star wide receiver is always open, he torched the Cardinals for an insane 15 catches, three touchdowns, and 192 yards in a must-win for the Bengals.
1. Buffalo Bills Stefon Diggs (Last Week #2)
The Bills may have been sleepwalking on Sunday, but Stefon Diggs had himself another great showing across the pond, moving into the top-6 for receiving yards and tying Tyreek Hill and DJ Moore for most receiving touchdowns so far in 2023.
