Who were the Week 3 dynasty winners and losers in 2026?

Parker Washington is the real winner: listed Jacksonville WR1, score 3,065 to 4,180. Brock Bowers returned (10 of 13 for 116 and a score) and the injury discount came off, back to 7,195. TreVeyon Henderson rose to 6,701 on two healthy weeks, but Sunday was an 8–7 carry split and Rhamondre Stevenson is still listed first. Puka Nacua is the clean injury loser, 9,523 to 9,016. Skip Jaxson Dart's +1,217 — that is leftover Week 1 volume, and his season is over.

Why does a player's score fall when he's listed Out, then rise when he plays?

The board takes a small discount for any listed Out week and removes it once he plays again. It measures availability, not talent, so a return usually reverses the drop.

Why didn't Michael Wilson's score move after 17 targets?

His role change already counted last week. A big game that confirms a role does not add a second jump.

Where can I check a receiver's share of the offense?

Week 3 Dynasty Winners & Losers: A New WR1 in Jacksonville

Jacksonville gets a new WR1, Brock Bowers returns with 13 targets, and New England's backfield stays split. The real Week 3 dynasty moves.

By Derek Sallis · September 28, 2026

The board now counts three full weeks of touches. That makes most of this week's moves easier to trust, and a few of them easier to ignore. Here is which is which. Last week: Arizona's WR1 flip and Henderson's 16 carries.

Winner: Parker Washington is Jacksonville's top receiver

Parker Washington moved from 3,065 to 4,180, the biggest role change on the board. He's now listed as Jacksonville's WR1, and he leads the team's receivers in target share over three games.

Sunday itself was small: three catches for 40 yards and a touchdown. Brian Thomas Jr. drew one target and is listed WR2. Jakobi Meyers saw 8 of Jacksonville's 29 throws. The move comes from the depth chart and the share, not a big game.

Winner: Brock Bowers is back

Brock Bowers caught 10 of 13 targets for 116 yards and a touchdown, taking 39% of Las Vegas' throws. His score jumped back to 7,195 as the injury discount came off. ESPN's injury page still lists him as Out. He played, so trust the box score.

That ends Michael Mayer's stretch as the featured tight end. He saw 3 of the team's 33 throws.

Winner: TreVeyon Henderson, but not the way we read it last week

Last week we wrote that the carries said TreVeyon Henderson was New England's real back. Sunday backed off that. Henderson took 8 of the Patriots' 22 non-quarterback carries. Rhamondre Stevenson took 7, and the depth chart still lists Stevenson first. Henderson's score rose to 6,701 on two healthy weeks, but the 16-carry game looks like his high end, not his new normal.

Small winner: Alvin Kamara

Alvin Kamara climbed to 2,768 as last week's injury discount reversed. He ran 9 times for 36 yards, and Travis Etienne ran 13 times for 57 in the same game. Kamara is the second back in New Orleans.

Loser: Puka Nacua, and the players out with him

Puka Nacua fell from 9,523 to 9,016 with a groin injury, the cleanest injury loss of the week. Two more starters missed the game: Nico Collins (hamstring) dropped from 7,249 to 6,862, and David Njoku (lower leg) dropped from 3,243 to 2,888.

Davante Adams filled in for Nacua with 7 catches on 13 targets for 137 yards. His score barely moved at 5,535, because last week's big game already put him at the top of his range. His role is bigger while Nacua is out, so last week's sell-high call assumed Nacua would play. He didn't.

Played anyway: three drops the field didn't support

ESPN still tags RJ Harvey, Zay Flowers, and Michael Pittman as Out, and the board dropped all three. All three played. Flowers caught 5 of 6 targets for 84 yards. Harvey caught 6 of 7 for 41. These scores should come back once the tags clear, so don't sell any of them on the number alone.

Two names last week set up

Michael Wilson caught 11 of 17 targets for 89 yards and a touchdown, a third of Arizona's throws. His score held at 6,356, because last week's jump already covered it. Marvin Harrison Jr. has 9 targets in three games and is still listed WR2.

Don't cite these

Jaxson Dart shows a jump of 1,217, but it comes from his Week 1 game, which is still in the three-week window. His season is over. KC Concepcion's drop is the same starting-price quirk we flagged last week, not a bad Sunday. Kenyon Sadiq walked back toward his catalog number after a listing reprint — also not a bust.
