Nico Collins WR | HOU
Texans' Nico Collins: Third 100-yard performance
Collins recorded four receptions on eight targets for 121 yards in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Chiefs.
Collins was the only Texans pass catcher to make a significant impact in a defensive showdown. He was unsurprisingly C.J. Stroud's favorite target, and he did the majority of his damage on long catches of 53 and 46 yards in the first half. After an inconsistent start to the season, Collins now has at least 75 receiving yards in five of his last six games and has topped 100 yards in three contests on the campaign.

Pat Bryant WR | DEN
Broncos' Pat Bryant: Hauls in all four targets Sunday
Bryant made four receptions on as many targets for 32 yards in Sunday's 24-17 win over the Raiders.
Bryant maintained his recent run of increased usage by finishing second in receiving behind Courtland Sutton (6-62-0) in Sunday's win. The 22-year-old Bryant has quietly averaged 43.2 yards a game over the Broncos' last six contests. Bryant's recent bump in production has put him on the map for those in deeper formats when the Broncos host the Packers in Week 15.

Tyler Lockett WR | LV
Raiders' Tyler Lockett: Three catches in loss
Lockett caught three of four targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Broncos.
Lockett was able to reel in multiple passes for the fourth time in the last five games, finishing third on the team in receptions behind Jack Bech (six) and Brock Bowers (four) against Denver. The wide receiver has yet to find the end zone over 12 contests with the Titans and Raiders this season, something he'll look to change in Week 14 against the Eagles.

Courtland Sutton WR | DEN
Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Leading receiver on 10 targets
Sutton corralled six of 10 targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 24-17 win over Las Vegas.
The Broncos nicked and cut the Raiders' defense with a bunch of underneath routes Sunday, resulting in Sutton leading the team in targets, receptions and yardage on modest totals. The 29-year-old has been a steady fantasy option with per-game averages of 4.3 receptions and 59.5 yards to go along with five touchdowns across 13 starts. Sutton should continue providing a high floor for fantasy managers when the Broncos host the Packers next Sunday.

Keon Coleman WR | BUF
Bills' Keon Coleman: Manages two catches against Bengals
Coleman logged two receptions on three targets for 16 yards Sunday in a 39-34 Week 14 win over Cincinnati.
On a snowy Sunday, Josh Allen completed passes to nine different teammates, with much of his production going to tight ends Dawson Knox (6-93-0) and Dalton Kincaid (4-41-1). None of Buffalo's wide receivers had more than two catches or 21 yards, though Khalil Shakir did manage a TD reception. Coleman was a healthy scratch for both Week 11 and Week 12 due to disciplinary measures, and in two games since returning to action, he's tallied four catches on six targets for 25 yards and a touchdown.

Isaiah Bond WR | CLE
Browns' Isaiah Bond: Shut out in loss
Bond failed to secure either of his two targets in Sunday's 31-29 loss to the Titans in Week 14.
Bond's two targets came on deep throws, as he had quarterback Shedeur Sanders have flashed some long-ball chemistry the last three games. Unfortunately for the rookie, Bond was shut out for the fourth time in the last six games. Cleveland's passing offense was the best its been since the Joe Flacco days (Weeks 1 and 2), which offers hope that Bond could evolve into a viable threat over the final few weeks of the season.

Gabe Davis WR | BUF
Bills' Gabe Davis: Nabs two catches in Week 14 victory
Davis finished Sunday's 39-34 victory versus the Bengals with two catches on two targets for 21 yards.
Josh Allen spread the ball around to nine different pass catchers on a snowy Sunday, with much of his production going to tight ends Dawson Knox (6-93-0) and Dalton Kincaid (4-41-1). Among the Bills' wideouts, Davis had the most receiving yards, though Khalil Shakir finished with the better fantasy line due to hauling in a touchdown. Davis has seven catches on 10 targets for 88 yards through four games heading into a Week 15 road battle in New England.

Gage Larvadain WR | CLE
Browns' Gage Larvadain: Records two catches in loss
Larvadain caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 31-29 loss to Tennessee in Week 14. He also returned four punts for 16 yards.
Larvadain recorded multiple targets for a second straight week following a five-game stretch in which he was targeted just twice (zero catches). An injury to fellow depth wideout Malachi Corley (concussion) could create more opportunities for Larvadain going forward. He also muffed one punt but recovered it, giving him four muffs in the last two games.

Elic Ayomanor WR | TEN
Titans' Elic Ayomanor: Hauls in TD in Week 14 win
Ayomanor caught one of three targets for a 14-yard touchdown Sunday in a 31-29 victory versus Cleveland.
Ayomanor got off to a promising start when he took a 14-yard pass from Cam Ward into the end zone early in the first quarter. However, that was the extent of the rookie wideout's production, as he didn't catch either of the other two balls thrown his way. Ayomanor finished fourth on the Titans in targets behind WR Chimere Dike (eight), WR Van Jefferson (four) and RB Tyjae Spears (four). With just four catches on 14 targets for 30 yards combined over his past three games, Ayomanor will be a very shaky fantasy play in Week 15 versus the 49ers.

Michael Pittman WR | PIT
Colts' Michael Pittman: Targeted 12 times
Pittman recorded nine receptions on 12 targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 36-19 loss to the Jaguars.
Pittman had been on the wrong end of the target distribution among Colts' pass catchers in recent weeks, but he rebounded to lead the team in opportunity in Week 14. He was targeted primarily in short areas of the field by Riley Leonard, leading to a modest yardage total, though he did manage a long 24-yard catch shortly after halftime. Pittman nearly had an even bigger day, as he appeared to have a 16-yard touchdown that was ultimately nullified by a borderline pass interference call. While this was an encouraging performance, Pittman could struggle down the stretch due to Daniel Jones (Achilles) being out for the rest of the year.
