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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Bell caught one of three targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-27 win over Jacksonville in Week 14.

Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski gambled on a 4th-and-3 at the Jaguars' 41-yard line early in the fourth quarter, and it paid dividends. Bell was left alone with an open field in front of him on a catch-and-run that gave Cleveland a 28-14 lead. On the play, two Jacksonville defenders followed Elijah Moore's crossing route, leaving Bell unencumbered to score the first touchdown of his NFL career. The second-year wideout has played just 12.8 percent of the offensive snaps this season.

Godwin brought in five of 11 targets for 53 yards in the Buccaneers' 29-25 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Godwin led the Bucs in receptions, receiving yards and targets, helping pick up the slack for an atypically inefficient Mike Evans, who brought in one of six targets for eight yards. Godwin saved his best for last as well, recording a team-high 32-yard grab on what would turn out to be Tampa Bay's game-winning drive. Godwin's solid day was an especially welcome sight considering he was shut out of the air attack altogether in Week 13 against the Panthers. Godwin will aim to build on Sunday's production in a Week 15 road matchup against the Packers.

Cooks had two receptions on five targets for 37 yards in Sunday's 33-13 win over the Eagles.

Cooks cooled off following a torrid four-game stretch that produced 332 yards and three touchdowns for fantasy managers. The five targets weren't abnormal based on the veteran's recent results, but his 40 percent catch rate Sunday was. Cooks will look to get back on track following a down week when the Cowboys visit the Bills next Sunday.
