Nick Westbrook-Ikhine WR | MIA
Dolphins' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Goes untargeted again
Westbrook-Ikhine was not targeted during Sunday's 21-17 win over the Saints.
Westbrook-Ikhine has now gone back-to-back games without a target, having played 15 and 13 offensive snaps in those contests, respectively. With such minimal involvement in the passing game for Miami, he remains distinctly off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 14 matchup against the Jets. The return of tight end Darren Waller from IR further diminishes Westbrook-Ikhine's prospects.

Darius Slayton WR | NYG
Giants' Darius Slayton: Cashes in Dart's only TD pass
Slayton finished with two receptions (on three targets) for 41 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 33-15 loss to the Patriots.
Slayton wound up being the beneficiary of Jaxson Dart's (concussion) only touchdown strike in the rookie signal-caller's return to action Monday night. The 28-year-old Slayton finished well behind fellow starter Wan'Dale Robinson and TE Theo Johnson in terms of targets (eight apiece), so fantasy managers shouldn't overreact to the former's first trip to the end zone in 2025. The Giants will be on a bye Week 14, with Slayton profiling as only a deep-league option in fantasy when the team resumes play on Sunday, Dec. 14 against the Commanders.

Wan'Dale Robinson WR | NYG
Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Helps PPR managers Monday
Robinson corralled seven of eight targets for 34 yards in Monday's 33-15 loss to New England.
Robinson finished in a tie with TE Theo Johnson for the team lead in targets in QB Jaxson Dart's (concussion) return to action Monday. The 24-year-old Robinson was dealing with an injury of his own during the practice week, but he avoided a designation, and the minor ankle issue didn't limit New York's No. 1 receiver in the loss. Robinson recorded at least seven receptions for the fourth time this season (after generating a career-high 93 receptions in 2024) as he continues to put in work for managers in PPR leagues. He'll look to add to a current high-water mark of 828 receiving yards when the Giants return from their Week 14 bye to face the Commanders on Sunday, Dec. 14.

Kayshon Boutte WR | NE
Patriots' Kayshon Boutte: Gets into end zone Monday
Boutte brought in four of five targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Boutte tied Hunter Henry for the team lead in receptions and brought in one of Drake Maye's two touchdown passes, recording a three-yard scoring grab with one minute remaining in the first quarter. Five of Boutte's six touchdowns on the campaign have come within the last six contests, although he's only totaled 50 receiving yards in the last three games. Boutte next takes aim at the Bills' talented secondary in a Week 15 home clash on Sunday, Dec. 14 following a Week 14 bye.

Stefon Diggs WR | NE
Patriots' Stefon Diggs: Remains quiet in Week 13 win
Diggs secured three of four targets for 26 yards in the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants on Monday night.
Despite Drake Maye throwing for 282 yards on 24 completions, Diggs was once again a minor player in the air attack. The veteran wideout has 46 yards or fewer in five of his last six games, including back-to-back sub-30-yard tallies. Nevertheless, Diggs has the ability to resurface in a passing game that spreads the wealth around to different targets on a weekly basis, and such an instance could come in a Week 15 matchup against his old Bills teammates on Sunday, Dec. 14 following a Week 14 bye.

Isaiah Hodgins WR | NYG
Giants' Isaiah Hodgins: Records one catch in Week 13 loss
Hodgins brought in his only target for four yards Monday in a loss to New England.
New York QB Jaxson Dart threw for only 139 yards in a game the Giants trailed by 23 points at the half, and no pass catcher on the team registered more than 41 receiving yards. Still, this was a very quiet game for Hodgins after he posted a 7-99-1 line across his first two contests since re-joining New York off Pittsburgh's practice squad in mid-November. Hodgins worked as the Giants' No. 3 wideout -- only two other WRs on the team (Darius Slayton and Wan'Dale Robinson) drew a target Monday -- and he figures to continue in that role following the club's Week 14 bye.

Mack Hollins WR | NE
Patriots' Mack Hollins: Three catches during MNF
Hollins caught three of four targets for 23 yards in Monday night's 33-15 win over the Giants.
Hollins was able to secure multiple passes for the eighth straight game, but he's now gone nine contests in a row without reaching the end zone. The wide receiver is one of the many mouths to feed in a New England offense that loves to spread the ball around, with eight different players reeling in at least one pass Week 13. Hollins now has caught 35 of 48 targets for 417 yards and two touchdowns over 13 games this year.

Kyle Williams WR | NE
Patriots' Kyle Williams: Makes most of one target
Williams recorded one catch (on one target) for 33 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 33-15 win over the Giants.
Williams was not prioritized in the Patriots offense, logging the fewest targets of eight players to hit the stat sheet Monday night. However, he made his one look count, hauling in a touchdown on an over-the-shoulder grab with excellent ball placement from Drake Maye. Williams has seen one or fewer targets in 10 games this season, though he's emerged as a downfield threat in recent weeks.
-
Demario Douglas WR | NE
Patriots' DeMario Douglas: Nabs all three targets in Week 13
Douglas hauled in all three of his targets for 33 yards in Monday's 33-15 victory over the Giants.
Douglas tied for fourth in receiving yardage among Patriots pass catchers, and he was one of five players on the team to catch three passes in a contest during which QB Drake Maye spread the ball around pretty evenly. Two of Douglas' catches came in a span of three plays late in the second quarter as New England drove quickly down the field for a field goal just before halftime. Douglas has rarely been prolific this season, but he's been quite consistent of late with between 33 and 37 receiving yards in four straight games.

Gunner Olszewski WR | NYG
Giants' Gunner Olszewski: Done for Week 13 due to concussion
Olszewski will be sidelined for the remainder of Monday's game against New England after being diagnosed with a concussion, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Olszewski took a huge helmet-to-helmet hit while returning a kick in the second quarter. He lost a fumble on the play and was immediately evaluated for a concussion. Now that a concussion has been confirmed, Olszewski won't be able to return to the contest, and he'll conclude the week with three kick returns for 54 yards. The Giants are on bye Week 14, but Olszewski will need to clear the NFL's concussion protocol in order to suit up Sunday, Dec. 14 against Washington.
