London brought in three of four targets for 39 yards in the Falcons' 29-10 win over the Colts on Sunday.

London had a quiet day overall but still tied for second in receptions on the afternoon for the Falcons. The speedy wideout should have a chance at a strong finish to the season now that the steadier Taylor Heinicke has taken back over for Desmond Ridder at quarterback, and he'll have a favorable matchup against the Bears' inconsistent secondary on the road in Week 17.

McLaurin caught three of five targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 30-28 loss to the Jets.

For the second straight week, McLaurin did little until Sam Howell was replaced at quarterback by Jacoby Brissett, and the wideout gained most of his team-leading yardage on a 29-yard pass from Brissett in the fourth quarter that helped set up a Chris Rodriguez TD. The Commanders' passing attack has looked better under Brissett than Howell in back-to-back games, and McLaurin's fantasy prospects would be brighter if coach Ron Rivera made the switch permanent ahead of a Week 17 clash with the 49ers.

Waddle was forced out of Sunday's game against the Cowboys with an eye issue.

Per David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel, Waddle appeared to get poked in the eye prior to his exit from the contest. Before then, Waddle had caught one of his four targets for 50 yards.

Chosen (concussion) is being evaluated for a possible concussion during Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

Chosen is questionable to return to the contest. He'll have to pass the NFL's concussion protocols in order to return to to the field Sunday.

Jefferson corralled six of 10 targets for 141 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Lions.

Jefferson put it all together in his third game back from injured reserve, posting a game-high 141 yards while catching his first touchdown since returning from the seven-game layoff. The superstar wideout also registered 10 targets for the second week in a row. That number could inflate in the coming weeks if either of T.J. Hockenson (knee) or Jordan Addison (ankle) is forced to miss time after both Vikings players left Sunday's contest with lower-body injuries. Jefferson should remain the focal point of Minnesota's offensive attack next Sunday in a home matchup against Green Bay on New Year's Eve.

Thielen brought in six of eight targets for 94 yards in the Panthers' 33-30 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Thielen tied DJ Chark for the team lead in receptions and targets while checking in second in receiving yards. The veteran wideout helped fuel a second-half comeback by the Panthers that just fell short, even recording a 22-yard grab on a last-gasp final drive that fizzled when time ran out with Carolina having reached the Packers' 31-yard line. Thielen's catch and target totals were his best since Week 11, while his yardage was his most prolific since Week 6. Consequently, Thielen has some momentum as he heads into a Week 17 road matchup against a leaky Jaguars secondary on New Year's Eve.

Doubs was targeted five times and caught four passes for 79 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-30 victory over the Panthers.

Doubs averaged just 42.8 yards per game and did not score over the four contests that preceded Sunday's, but with Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (toe/chest) sitting out Sunday and Dontayvion Wicks (chest) exiting early, Doubs saw extra opportunities and capitalized. His prospects for Week 16 will hinge significantly on the availability -- or the lack thereof -- of his three fellow wideouts.

Chark secured six of eight targets for 98 yards and two touchdowns in the Panthers' 33-30 loss to the Packers on Sunday. He also committed a fumble that was recovered by Carolina.

The Bryce Young-Chark connection, dormant most of the season, came alive at an opportune time Sunday, with the speedy veteran bringing in 11- and 10-yard scoring grabs in the fourth quarter. Chark tied for the team lead in receptions and targets while setting the pace in receiving yards, and the pair of scores pushed his season total (five) to his best showing in that category since the 2020 season. Chark's reception and yardage numbers were also season-best figures, sending him into a Week 17 road matchup against a suspect Jaguars secondary with plenty of momentum.

Moore (ankle) returned to Sunday's game versus the Cardinals, Brad Biggs of the Chicago Tribune reports.

Moore had his right ankle rolled up on by an Arizona defender on his first catch of the game. He spent time laying on the turf in pain and then a lengthy spell in the sideline tent. When he emerged, Moore had a large wrap on the ankle, but he'll attempt to play through the pain Sunday.

Moore injured his right ankle during Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Chris Emma of 670TheScore.com reports.

Moore was targeted by Justin Fields on the quarterback's first pass of the game, which he hauled in for a six-yard gain. As Moore was taken to the ground, his right ankle was rolled up on, and he remained on the turf for a spell before making his way to the sideline with team trainers. He then visited the medical tent, and after he emerged he had a large wrap on the ankle in question and walked with a visible limp. Officially, Moore is questionable to return.
