  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Quiet again in Week 17

    London secured four of 10 targets for 56 yards in the Falcons' 37-17 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

    London certainly didn't lack for opportunity while leading the team in targets by a wide margin, but he and Taylor Heinicke found chemistry elusive in the snowy environment of Soldier Field. The second-year wideout has been held under 60 receiving yards for three straight games, but he should have a good chance of improving on his recent production if he sees a similar amount of passes come his way in a Week 18 road matchup against the Saints.

  • DJ Moore WR | BUF

    Bears' DJ Moore: Spectacular numbers in win

    Moore brought in nine of 13 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 37-17 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

    Moore easily paced the Bears in receptions, receiving yards and targets, authoring his first 100-yard game since Week 12 and only his second overall since Week 5. Moore also opened the scoring on the day with a seven-yard touchdown grab in the first quarter, and he appeared completely unencumbered by the ankle injury that cost him some time in Week 16. Moore will have one more chance to build on what has already been a career-best campaign when the Bears face the Packers at Lambeau Field in Week 18.

  • Tyler Boyd WR | TEN

    Bengals' Tyler Boyd: Targeted twice in loss

    Boyd recorded two receptions on two targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 25-17 loss to the Chiefs.

    Tee Higgins was forced to miss a significant portion of Sunday's game due to a hamstring injury, but that didn't result in additional volume for Boyd. His two targets marked his fewest on the campaign, and he's now been held to under 30 yards in four of his last seven contests.

  • Seahawks' Tyler Lockett: Disappears in loss

    Lockett recorded one reception on five targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 30-23 loss to the Steelers.

    The Seahawks ran only 49 offensive plays, which limited the volume of many of their skill-position players. That was the case for Lockett, who has seen five or fewer targets in only four games this season. The performance was a continuation of his uneven production this season, as he has been held under 25 yards in two of his last four games, but he's topped 80 in the other two contests.

  • Chris Godwin WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Scores impressive TD in loss

    Godwin brought in three of five targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 23-13 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

    Godwin checked in second in receiving yards for the Bucs on the afternoon, getting to that total with an impressive 47-yard touchdown grab with 1:37 remaining. Godwin now has at least 78 receiving yards in three straight contests, and with Sunday's production, he heads into the Week 18 regular-season finale just 27 yards short of his third consecutive 1,000-yard season.

  • Mike Evans WR | SF

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Solid numbers in loss

    Evans brought in three of four targets for 70 yards in the Buccaneers' 23-13 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

    Evans didn't have to deal with the pesky coverage of Marshon Lattimore (ankle), but he was still largely contained by the Saints and gained half his yardage on one reception. The perennial Pro Bowler has recorded at least 70 receiving yards in four of the last six games, however, and while Sunday's target total was his second lowest of the season, he should see more passes come his way in a Week 18 road finale against the Panthers that gives the Buccaneers a chance to clinch the NFC South.

  • Steelers' Diontae Johnson: Loses out to Pickens again

    Johnson recorded four catches on four targets for 76 yards in Sunday's 30-23 win over Seattle.

    Johnson had improved results in his second game with Mason Rudolph, primarily thanks to a 42-yard reception midway through the third quarter. However, he was outplayed by George Pickens for the second consecutive week and also saw only half the target volume of Pickens. So long as Rudolph is under center, it appears that Johnson will be the second receiver in the offense, though the improved state of the unit will still give him a chance to produce in a Week 18 matchup against the Ravens.

  • Jordan Addison WR | MIN

    Vikings' Jordan Addison: Suits up, makes three grabs

    Addison (ankle) had three receptions on five targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 33-10 loss to the Packers.

    Addison's status for Sunday Night Football was in question earlier in the week after the wideout left last week's loss to the Lions with an ankle injury. The 21-year-old was able to suit up after a couple of limited practice sessions and escaped the blowout loss no worse for wear. Addison will get another week to inch closer to full health ahead of the rematch with Detroit in Week 18.

  • Romeo Doubs WR | NE

    Packers' Romeo Doubs: Held to 28 yards

    Doubs recorded three catches on six targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 33-10 win over the Vikings.

    Doubs was overshadowed by Bo Melton and Jayden Reed (chest), though he still remained involved with six targets -- tied for third-best on the team. The Packers have had several different receivers step up for big performances throughout the season, making it difficult for Doubs to produce consistently. For example, he has been held to 32 receiving yards or fewer in three of his last five games, but he's topped 70 in the other two and also has a touchdown in that span. He should be on the field plenty for a Week 18 matchup against the Bears, giving him the chance to bounce back.

  • Chris Olave WR | NO

    Saints' Chris Olave: Surprisingly quiet in win

    Olave secured three of six targets for 26 yards in the Saints' 23-13 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Olave came into the game with elevated expectations considering the Buccaneers' defense had struggled against the pass most of the season and was missing Carlton Davis (concussion), but the talented wideout took a back seat to tight end Juwan Johnson. Olave's reception and receiving yardage totals were both his lowest since Week 5, but he'll look to bounce back when the Saints host the Falcons in a key Week 18 divisional clash.
