  • Chris Olave WR | NO

    Saints' Chris Olave: Three catches in win

    Olave brought in three of five targets for 30 yards in the Saints' 24-20 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Olave played through a back issue for the second straight week and put together a modest performance by his lofty standards, although Devaughn Vele was the Saints' leader in receiving yards with just 10 more than Olave. The fourth-year wideout's yardage tally was his second lowest of the season, but Olave managed to keep his season-long streak of no less than three catches in any game alive. Olave next takes aim at the Panthers secondary in a Week 15 home clash next Sunday.

  • Jets' Isaiah Williams: Gets second punt return TD of 2025

    Williams caught two of three targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins. He also had three punt returns for 91 yards and a touchdown, as well as two kickoff returns for 69 yards.

    Williams' 78-yard punt return touchdown in the first quarter accounted for the Jets' only touchdown of the game, though they had already fallen into a 21-0 hole prior to that point. He also scored a punt return touchdown in Week 10 against the Browns. Williams also saw more involvement than usual on offense, catching multiple passes for only the second time this season.

  • Khalil Shakir WR | BUF

    Bills' Khalil Shakir: Gets into end zone in Sunday's win

    Shakir caught two of three targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 39-34 win over the Bengals.

    The Bills' wideouts had even less to do than usual during a cold, snowy game in Buffalo, but Shakir managed to make an impact with an 11-yard TD grab from Josh Allen in the second quarter. It was Shakir's fourth TD of the season, tying his career high, but it was also the third time in the last four games the fourth-year WR failed to reach 20 receiving yards. Shakir will look for better playing conditions and more volume in Week 15 against the Patriots.

  • Jets' Adonai Mitchell: One-catch game following breakout

    Mitchell caught one of six targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins.

    Mitchell cooled off after his breakout performance against the Falcons in the previous game, though he wasn't helped by subpar quarterback play from third-stringer Brady Cook, who replaced Tyrod Taylor (groin) in the first half. Mitchell caught eight of 12 targets for 102 yards and a touchdown against Atlanta but has caught only four of 19 targets for 76 yards across three other appearances for the Jets. His target volume has been encouraging, but the inconsistent wide receiver's floor will remain low in Week 15 against the Jaguars, especially if the Jets start Cook or Justin Fields (knee) under center.

  • Darnell Mooney WR | NYG

    Falcons' Darnell Mooney: Held to one grab Sunday

    Mooney caught one of four targets for six yards in Sunday's 37-9 loss to the Seahawks.

    Even with Drake London (knee) out of action again, Mooney couldn't get anything going against Seattle's tough defense, as tight end Kyle Pitts wound up leading Atlanta in all receiving categories. In the three games London has missed, Mooney's managed just a 6-105-1 line on 12 targets, making him little more than a dart throw for fantasy purposes in Week 15 against the Buccaneers, whether London is healthy or not.

  • Jets' John Metchie: Another four-catch performance

    Metchie caught four of eight targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins.

    Metchie tied for the team lead in targets with Mason Taylor while finishing second behind Taylor in both catches and receiving yards as the Jets struggled offensively while playing most of the game with third-string quarterback Brady Cook after Tyrod Taylor suffered an early groin injury. Metchie has made at least four catches in each of his last three games, establishing himself as a reliable option in an undermanned Jets passing game that has been playing without Garrett Wilson (knee), who is eligible to return from injured reserve in Week 15 against the Jaguars.

  • Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Two more TDs in Week 14 rout

    Smith-Njigba caught seven of 10 targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 37-9 win over the Falcons.

    After not being needed in last week's rout of the Vikings, Smith-Njigba was a bigger part of the game plan this time around, hauling in a 28-yard TD from Sam Darnold in the third quarter and a four-yard score in the fourth as the Seahawks pulled away in the second half. JSN has fallen off his 2,000-yard pace over the last couple weeks, but he still leads the NFL by a wide margin with 1,428 yards through 13 games, to go along with 89 catches and nine touchdowns. The third-year wideout will look for another big performance in Week 15 against the Colts.

  • Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN

    Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Held in check by Bills

    Chase brought in five of eight targets for 44 yards and rushed once for eight yards in the Bengals' 39-34 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

    Chase took a back seat to the returning Tee Higgins on the afternoon, with the Bills' attention on the former paying off nicely for the latter. Chase's receiving yardage total was his second sub-50-yard tally in the last three games, but the elite wideout hasn't seen fewer than eight targets since Week 3. Chase will aim to bounce back in a Week 15 home rematch with a Ravens team he posted a 7-110-0 line against in a Thanksgiving Night win.

  • Jaylen Waddle WR | DEN

    Dolphins' Jaylen Waddle: Five catches, including early TD

    Waddle caught five of seven targets for 50 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Jets. He also rushed once for 21 yards.

    Waddle capped the opening drive with a three-yard touchdown catch. Miami went with a run-heavy approach the rest of the way while playing with the lead and facing third-string Jets quarterback Brady Cook for most of the game, but Waddle still reached the five-catch threshold for the eighth time this season while leading the team in targets, catches and receiving yards. Waddle will have a nice opportunity to build on this outing in Week 15 against a Steelers defense that has struggled to contain wide receivers.

  • Jordan Addison WR | MIN

    Vikings' Jordan Addison: Leading receiver in Week 14 win

    Addison caught four of seven targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Commanders.

    With J.J. McCarthy back under center for the Vikings, Addison led the team in catches, targets and receiving yards, although all three of the QB's passing touchdowns went to tight ends instead of wideouts. Addison's yardage total was his highest since Week 7, and if McCarthy can stay healthy and gain confidence down the stretch, it would be good news for the team's entire passing attack. Addison could be positioned for a ceiling game in Week 15 against a vulnerable Cowboys defense.
