Michael Wilson WR | ARI
Cardinals' Michael Wilson: Back on practice field
Wilson (shoulder) was spotted taking part in Monday's unofficial practice session, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.
Though the Cardinals were back on the field Monday following a Week 14 bye, the team won't have to submit its first Week 15 injury report until Wednesday, at which point it will be known whether Wilson is practicing as a full or limited participant. The fact that the rookie receiver is at least practicing in some capacity is an encouraging sign after he had sat out Arizona's last three games while missing six consecutive practices. If Wilson is available for this Sunday's game against the 49ers, he should reclaim the starting role he had held prior to suffering the shoulder injury.

Michael Gallup WR | WAS
Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Snags second TD of 2023
Gallup caught three of five targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Eagles.
The veteran wideout caught a one-yard slant from Dak Prescott right before halftime to give the Cowboys a 24-6 lead in an eventual 33-13 romp. The TD was Gallup's second of the season, while the three grabs and five targets tied his highs in seven games since the team's bye. CeeDee Lamb, Brandin Cooks and Jake Ferguson remain Prescott's top options in the passing game, but there's been enough production to go around lately that Gallup is still capable of providing some fantasy value, although not consistently.

Randall Cobb WR | NYJ
Jets' Randall Cobb: Scores first TD as a Jet
Cobb caught his only target for a 15-yard touchdown in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Texans.
Active for only the second time since Week 6, Cobb made the most of his opportunity by catching a 15-yard touchdown to open the scoring in the third quarter. It was Cobb's first touchdown as a member of the Jets, as well as his longest reception with the team.

Xavier Gipson WR | NYG
Jets' Xavier Gipson: Scores rushing TD in Week 14 win
Gipson caught his only target for three yards and rushed once for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Texans.
Gipson scored his first offensive touchdown in the NFL on a nine-yard run in the third quarter, doubling New York's lead to 14-0. He also had three punt returns for 17 yards. Whether it's as a traditional slot receiver or a gadget player, Gipson has carved out consistent playing time in New York's offense, albeit with only a few touches per game.

Justin Jefferson WR | MIN
Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Avoids severe injury
Coach Kevin O'Connell said after Sunday's 3-0 win over the Raiders that Jefferson (chest), who was forced out of the contest in the first half, avoided a serious injury, Kevin Seifert of ESPN reports.
O'Connell said, "It looks like [Jefferson] avoided any significant thing there," but that it remains to be seen whether the star wideout will be available Week 15 versus the Bengals. Sunday marked Jefferson's first game back from IR due to a hamstring injury suffered Week 5, but a hit from Raiders safety Marcus Epps resulted in him being taken to the hospital as a precaution. While Jefferson was able to travel home with the team and has been cleared of any serious internal injuries, his status now needs to be closely monitored until Minnesota provides a clear timetable for his recovery.

Demarcus Robinson WR | SF
Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Shaky day salvaged with TD
Robinson secured three of 10 targets for 46 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 37-31 overtime loss to the Ravens.
Despite tying for the team lead in targets with Cooper Kupp, Robinson wasn't able to come close to replicating Kupp's stellar 8-115-1 line. Even though Robinson and Matthew Stafford weren't able to get on the same page for much of the day, a five-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter gave the veteran wideout a decent performance from a fantasy perspective. Perhaps more notably, Tutu Atwell left the game in the second quarter while being evaluated for a concussion, which could push Robinson into a starting role alongside Kupp and Puka Nacua heading into a tantalizing matchup with the Commanders in Week 15.

John Metchie III WR | CAR
Texans' John Metchie: Season-high targets, snaps
Metchie caught one of five targets for six yards in Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jets in Week 14.
Metchie saw a season highs in snaps (28) and targets following the loss of Nico Collins to a calf injury early in the first quarter. The Texans were already operating without Tank Dell (lower leg) and Dalton Schultz (hamstring), and the passing game suffered. Xavier Hutchinson (41 snaps) also received an uptick in playing time behind Noah Brown and Robert Woods. Later in the contest, starting quarterback C.J. Stroud entered the NFL's concussion protocol. With injuries impacting the passing offense and the potential of Davis Mills starting in Week 15 against Tennessee, Houston could deploy a run-heavy attack.

Xavier Hutchinson WR | HOU
Texans' Xavier Hutchinson: Moves up depth chart
Hutchinson caught two of three targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jets in Week 14.
Hutchinson emerged as the snap-count leader (41) among the team's wideouts following Nico Collins' departure after just three plays with a calf injury. Collins joined Tank Dell (lower leg) and Dalton Schultz (hamstring) on the list of unavailable receiving options, which elevated Hutchinson and John Metchie (28 snaps). Noah Brown and Robert Woods were also in the lineup, but the passing game suffered without Collins and Dell. Adding to offense's troubles was quarterback C.J. Stroud leaving in the fourth quarter with a concussion. Houston, which travels to Tennessee in Week 15, may revert to a run-dominant gameplan if it is without its top two wideouts, top tight end and starting quarterback.

Cedric Tillman WR | CLE
Browns' Cedric Tillman: Remains involved
Tillman caught two of four targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Jaguars in Week 14.
Amari Cooper and Elijah Moore dwarf Tillman in terms of targets, but the rookie continues to get significant usage. He's played 81.4 percent of the offensive snaps since the Browns traded Donovan Peoples-Jones to Detroit. Recently, that usage has translated into targets with an average of five per game over the last three weeks. Now that the Browns have settled on Joe Flacco as the starting quarterback for the remainder of the season, Tillman could be in line to make a meaningful fantasy impact.

Elijah Moore WR | PHI
Browns' Elijah Moore: Six targets in win
Moore caught three of six targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 31-27 win over Jacksonville in Week 14.
With Amari Cooper returning from concussion and available for a full game, Moore experienced a drop in targets from last week's season-high 12. He did have a role in Cleveland's final touchdown, when two Jacksonville defenders followed his crossing route, which left David Bell alone for a 41-yard touchdown catch. While Moore has not made the impact that was envisioned for him during the preseason, he's averaged seven targets per game. Now that quarterback Joe Flacco has revitalized the downfield passing attack, Moore could have a bigger impact over the final weeks of the regular season.
