Chiefs second-year tight end Travis Kelce caught seven of nine targets for 110 yards in the Week 14 loss at Arizona, his first 100-yard game. Kelce's performance was marred by the fact he lost a fumble following his last grab.

Kelce, who hasn't scored since Week 9, paced Kansas City in targets. His longest gainer went 29 yards. He'll play the Raiders in Week 15.

The Chargers have rulled the following players as inactive for Sunday night's Week 14 matchup with the Patriots: nose tackles Ryan Carrethers (elbow) and Damion Square, running back Ronnie Brown, wide receiver Dontrelle Inman, guard Jeff Baca, tight end David Johnson and linebacker Cordarro Law.

Carrethers had already been ruled out for Sunday's game so his absence won't be unexpected. The team does have all three of its questionable players available for action, as linebacker Donald Butler (quad) and offensive linemen D.J. Fluker (concussion) and Chris Watt (calf) are active. Also active are all the team's probable players, including quarterback Philip Rivers (chest), defensive tackle Corey Liuget (knee) and linebacker Andrew Gachkar (knee).

Jaguars tight end Marcedes Lewis had a team-high 69 receiving yards during a 27-13 loss Week 14 vs. Houston. He had three catches and was targeted four times.

Lewis' longest catch went for 35 yards. He has surpassed 50 receiving yards just twice in five games this season. The Jaguars are back in action Week 15 at Baltimore.

Several Colts receivers not named T.Y. Hilton managed to contribute to a comeback win in Cleveland on Sunday.

The best of the bunch was tight end Coby Fleener, who caught half of his 10 targets for 56 yards. Also chipping in were Donte Moncrief (3-33) and Dwayne Allen (1-5).

Lions tight end Joesph Fauria briefly left Sunday's game against the Buccaneers with an ankle injury, but returned to score his first touchdown of the year. 

Fauria, who had two catches for 17 yards and a touchdown, had just four catches for 57 yards coming into the day. Fauria had seven touchdowns in 2013.

The Lions will take on Minnesota in Week 15. 

Another poor game by Browns quarterback Brian Hoyer resulted in little production from his receivers on Sunday.

That group was led by tight end Jordan Cameron, who caught four passes for 41 yards, but had a mere one reception in the second half. Andrew Hawkins added four catches for 38 yards while Travis Benjamin (1-27), Taylor Gabriel (2-16) and tight end Jim Dray (1-3) also chipped in. 

Giants tight end Larry Donnell finished with four catches for 28 yards during a 36-7 win Week 14 at Tennessee. He was targeted seven times and his longest catch went 11 yards.

Donnell hasn't had a touchdown in three straight games. The Giants are back in action Week 15 vs. Washington. Donnell had a three-touchdown game Week 4 against the Redskins.

A disastrous Sunday afternoon at home for the Saints certainly filtered down to struggling tight end Jimmy Graham.

Graham, who is dealing with a sore shoulder, was held to just one catch in the first three quarters and finished with three for a mere 25 yards despite having 11 passes thrown his way. It's the fifth game this season in which he has gained 36 yards or less through the air.

He will try to raise his level of play against the visiting Bears next Monday night.

The Seahawks have listed Bryan Walters, Jeremy Lane, Allen Bradford, Max Unger, Travian Robertson, Cooper Helfet and RaShaun Allen as inactive for Week 14 against the Eagles.

Helfet came into the contest listed as doubtful due to an ankle injury. Lane was questionable with a glute issue. The other five players listed are healthy scratches. 

Lions tight end Joseph Fauria hurt his ankle in the first quarter of Detroit's Week 14 matchup against the Bucs and is questionable to return. 

Fauria has four catches for 57 yards this season.
