With the return of Kupp, there was some question about how McVay and Stafford would distribute targets between Kupp, the 2021 NFL offensive player of the year, and Puka Nacua, the rookie sensation off to a record start.

The answer: Pretty evenly.

Kupp got 12 targets. Nacua 11. Nacua caught seven passes for 71 yards, including a 22-yard touchdown that required a pinpoint throw and a great catch.

Atwell caught three passes on five targets, including a short touchdown. Ben Skowronek was targeted once.

Van Jefferson, who went into training camp as the presumptive No. 2 receiver, was not targeted.
