  • Jets' John Metchie: Makes four catches again

    Metchie caught four of five targets for 25 yards and rushed once for four yards in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    Metchie has caught at least four passes in each of the past four games. He has carved out a steady role since coming over from Philadelphia via trade, but Metchie's ceiling remains capped by the Jets' inefficient quarterback play heading into a Week 16 trip to New Orleans.

  • Jets' Adonai Mitchell: Six catches, TD on nine targets

    Mitchell caught six of nine targets for 58 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars. He also rushed once for minus-4 yards.

    Mitchell got the Jets on the board with a nine-yard touchdown catch in the first quarter. The twitchy wide receiver has been targeted 40 times in five appearances for the Jets. Mitchell has been inconsistent while dealing with subpar quarterback play, but his mix of athleticism and target share will give the 52nd overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft some enticing upside in Week 16 against the Saints, no matter whom the Jets tab as their starting quarterback.

  • Isaiah Bond WR | CLE

    Browns' Isaiah Bond: Two long catches

    Bond recorded two receptions on four targets for 89 yards in Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Bears.

    Bond was one of the few bright spots in Sunday's blowout loss, as he accounted for nearly half of Shedeur Sanders' yardage with long catches of 47 and 42 yards. It was his second time showing strong rapport with Sanders on deep passes, as he also had a pair of 29-yard catches in Week 12. Bond will likely remain inconsistent due to his role in the Cleveland offense -- this marks the first time that he's topped two targets in the team's last five games -- but he has shown the ability to deliver splash plays.

  • Josh Palmer WR | BUF

    Bills' Joshua Palmer: One catch in victory

    Palmer caught one of two targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 35-31 win over the Patriots.

    Palmer was held to one catch for the first time since Week 3, though he's yet to exceed two receptions in a contest since Week 1. The wide receiver finished fourth on the team in receiving yards, while his two targets were his fewest since returning from an ankle injury in Week 11. Palmer will look to be more involved in the team's matchup with the Browns on Dec. 21.

  • Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Posts 13-164-2 line Sunday

    St. Brown finished with 13 receptions on 18 targets for 164 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams.

    St. Brown's pair of scores in the first half helped give the Lions a couple of early leads in Sunday's shootout. While his team wasn't able to hang on to win the contest, the fantasy star did his part while recording season-high marks in receptions, targets and yardage. St. Brown has looked like his usual dominant self in the two games since giving his fantasy managers a scare with an early exit due to an ankle injury on Thanksgiving Day. The 25-year-old's standout performance against the Rams helped him reach 1,000 receiving yards for the fourth consecutive campaign. St. Brown boasts a healthy 94-1,140-11 receiving line heading into next Sunday's tilt against Pittsburgh.

  • Jaguars' Parker Washington: Catches all three targets in return

    Washington (hip) caught all three of his targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 48-20 win over the Jets.

    Washington returned from a one-game absence and reprised his role as the No. 3 wide receiver behind Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers, who each saw seven targets Sunday. With Thomas and Meyers both healthy, Washington isn't expected to play a significant role in Week 16 against the Broncos.

  • Jets' Isaiah Williams: Six catches in defeat

    Williams caught six of seven targets for 53 yards and added nine yards on two punt returns in Sunday's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    Williams was able to finish with career highs in both catches and receiving yards in Week 15, most notably securing a 25-yard snag in the first quarter. The wide receiver had caught only seven of 13 targets for 61 yards over 11 contests coming into Sunday, so his performance was a bit of a breakout. Williams will look to build off of his day in Week 16 against the Saints.

  • Packers' Christian Watson: Cleared to fly home

    Watson (chest) has been released from the hospital and is flying home with the Packers, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

    Watson was taken to the hospital after suffering a chest injury during Sunday's loss to the Broncos, but he has gained clearance to return home. The next update on Watson's status will surface no later than Tuesday, when the Packers resume practicing ahead of Saturday's game against the Bears.

  • Tre Harris WR | LAC

    Chargers' Tre' Harris: Season-high 49 yards in Week 15 win

    Harris caught three passes on five targets for 49 yards during the Chargers' 16-13 win over the Chiefs on Sunday.

    Harris stepped into a larger role on offense Sunday due to the absence of Quentin Johnston (groin). Harris finished with a season-high 49 receiving yards, including a 37-yard catch late in the second quarter that put the Chargers deep into opposition territory and eventually led to a 16-yard touchdown pass from Justin Herbert to KeAndre Lambert-Smith three plays later. Harris' targets and receiving yards were both second most on the Chargers, and he would be in line for an expanded role in Week 16 against the Cowboys on Sunday, Dec. 21 if Johnston is not cleared to return.

  • Patriots' Kayshon Boutte: Secures only target

    Boutte caught his only target for 30 yards in Sunday's 35-31 loss to the Bills.

    Boutte was limited to one or zero catches for the first time since Week 9, but he was still able to finish second on the team in receiving yards behind fellow wideout Mack Hollins (41). Boutte has been a real boom-or-bust option this season, finding the end zone in five different contests while also having five performances in which he was limited to 30 or fewer yards. The wide receiver will look to put together a more prolific stat line in Week 16 against the Ravens.
