What happened: With Davante Adams placed on injured reserve due to a hamstring injury, the Los Angeles Rams are leaning on their tight end group featuring Davis Allen. In New York, rookie wideout Omar Cooper Jr. has carved out an emerging role in the Jets passing attack. Meanwhile, the Washington Commanders exit their bye week looking to integrate young pass-catchers alongside quarterback Jayden Daniels and veteran receiver Stefon Diggs.

Why it matters: Diggs has already missed time this season after signing with Washington, opening additional targets as the Commanders defense continues yielding points. League-wide roster depth faces an immediate squeeze with the New Orleans Saints, New York Giants and Houston Texans all idle on bye following New York's 27-21 victory over Houston.

What to watch: The Rams face an upcoming stretch against the Los Angeles Chargers, Washington Commanders and Arizona Cardinals. The Jets prepare for a slate featuring the Las Vegas Raiders, Kansas City Chiefs, Buffalo Bills, Chargers and Miami Dolphins.
