The top receivers are back in action in Week 9 after a massive bye week in Week 8:<\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Nacua missed the Week 7 game before the bye week with an injury, but he is expected to play in Week 9. He retakes the top spot of the wide receiver rankings.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Chase has four straight top-five fantasy finishes and is back to being the number one overall wide receiver in fantasy football in total points, and is third in PPG behind Nacua and JSN.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Collins should be able to clear concussion protocol, but he has a difficult matchup against the Broncos<\/a>.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
