Michael Gallup WR | WAS
Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Just one grab in Buffalo
Gallup caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 31-10 loss to the Bills.
Dak Prescott posted his lowest passing yards total of the season and completed just 21 passes, his lowest total since the Cowboys' Week 7 bye, giving few opportunities for the team's depth receiving options to make any kind of impact. Gallup has caught one pass or less in three of the last four games, seeing only one target in each of those contests, but he could see higher volume Week 16 if the road game against the Dolphins turns into a barn burner.

Skyy Moore WR | GB
Chiefs' Skyy Moore: Placed on IR with knee injury
Moore (knee) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.
Moore will miss the remainder of the regular season. He left Sunday's 27-17 win over the Patriots due to knee swelling, and the injury is significant enough to require a stint on injured reserve. Moore finishes his disappointing sophomore campaign with 21 catches for 244 yards on 38 targets, three carries for 23 yards and one overall touchdown, but he'll be eligible to return for the divisional round of the playoffs if the Chiefs still are alive at that point.

Alec Pierce WR | IND
Colts' Alec Pierce: One reception in win
Pierce had one reception for 13 yards on five targets in Saturday's win over Pittsburgh.
Pierce once again had high usage by playing on 65 of the offense's 67 snaps and went on 34 routes, but he wasn't a huge factor in the offense. Indy's limited deep passing game has resulted in just two games where Pierce has amassed more than 50 yards receiving.
-
Brandon Powell WR | MIN
Vikings' Brandon Powell: Limited role on offense
Powell didn't have a catch or target in Sunday's loss at Cincinnati. He also returned four punts at an average of 5.5 yards.
Powell had just two snaps on offense - both were quarterback sneaks where he helped (unsuccessfully) push the quarterback. Powell was getting significant playing time at receiver with Justin Jefferson injured, but he'll likely remain limited almost exclusively to special teams with Jefferson back.

Michael Thomas WR | NO
Saints' Michael Thomas: Won't have window opened Week 16
Thomas (knee) won't have his practice window opened prior to Thursday's game against the Rams, Mike Triplett of New Orleans.Football reports.
Thomas has spent the requisite four weeks on injured reserve, so his 21-day practice window can be opened at any point moving forward. The veteran wide receiver isn't ready to return yet, and coach Dennis Allen was unable to provide a return timetable for Thomas on Monday. After Thursday's game, the Saints won't play again until Sunday, Dec. 31 in Tampa Bay.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine WR | IND
Titans' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: One long catch
Westbrook-Ikhine recorded one catch on two targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Texans.
Westbrook-Ikhine was limited to one or fewer catches for the second time in his last three games and for the eighth time this season. Treylon Burks appears to be fully healthy once again, which caused Westbrook-Ikhine's snap count to dip to a season-low 48 percent.
-
Chris Olave WR | NO
Saints' Chris Olave: Not ready to practice Monday
Olave (ankle) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
New Orleans didn't practice Monday, but Olave wouldn't have been available if the team took the field. He didn't practice in any capacity before sitting out this past Sunday's 24-6 win over the Giants, and Olave doesn't have much additional recovery time for his ankle injury before Thursday's pivotal matchup with the Rams.
-
Jauan Jennings WR | MIN
49ers' Jauan Jennings: Logs 23 snaps on offense
Jennings had two receptions on as many targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 45-29 win over Arizona.
Jennings got involved offensively against the Cardinals after laying a goose egg against another division foe in Week 14. The 26-year-old has only garnered more than four targets just once this season. Jennings' small role leaves him with little fantasy value ahead of next Monday's tilt against the Ravens.
-
Nelson Agholor WR | BAL
Ravens' Nelson Agholor: Minimal usage against Jaguars
Agholor was held without a catch (one target) on 27 snaps Sunday against the Jaguars.
The veteran saw his snap count scale back Sunday as he dropped from 42 snaps against the Rams in Week 14 to just 27 (39 percent) against the Jags. Still, Sunday's game was more in line with Agholor's usage over the course of the season than his game against L.A. Outside of the Rams performance, Agholor has drawn two or fewer targets each week since Week 6. Baltimore's primary loadout at receiver consists of Zay Flowers, Odell Beckham and Rashod Bateman, which does not leave much room for significant contributions from Agholor most weeks considering the offense's preference for bigger personal groupings that feature at least one tight end more often than not.
-
Treylon Burks WR | WAS
Titans' Treylon Burks: Back on track
Burks recorded three receptions on three targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 19-16 loss to the Texans.
This marked Burks' third game back from a concussion, and he managed his highest raw snap count and percentage participation since returning. Though he saw only three targets, Burks delivered a pair of big plays of 37 and 20 yards to post his highest yardage total since Week 2 of the season. While DeAndre Hopkins will continue to dominate targets in the Tennessee offense, Burks should have the chance to step in as the second pass catcher to close the campaign.
