  • Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Notches three catches in Week 18

    Brown gathered in three of six targets for 64 yards during Sunday's 14-12 loss to the Raiders.

    With the Chiefs missing out on the playoffs for the first time since 2014, Brown's 2025 campaign officially comes to a close. The 28-year-old wideout posted another middle-of-the-road campaign this season, racking up 49 catches for 587 yards and five touchdowns on 74 targets over 16 games. While he missed one, it's certainly a better sign that the veteran was able to stay healthy for the majority of 2025 after missing all but two games last season, and he'll head to free agency this offseason after only signing a one-year pact with KC prior to this year. Brown doesn't figure to command huge numbers but should have a spot on a roster somewhere again next year.

  • Dolphins' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Invisible in Week 18 loss

    Westbrook-Ikhine was not targeted in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Patriots.

    Westbrook-Ikhine joined forces with the Dolphins via a two-year, $6.5 million contract back in March, a deal that will go under the radar as one of the worst signings of the 2025 offseason. Across 15 regular-season appearances, Westbrook-Ikhine secured just 10 of 20 targets for 89 scoreless yards, a notable downturn after he had surpassed 350 receiving yards in four prior seasons with the Titans, including a 32-497-9 receiving line in 2024. The Dolphins have an "out" in Westbrook-Ikhine's contract this offseason for only $1.6 million in dead cap.

  • Dolphins' Tahj Washington: Makes two grabs in season finale

    Washington secured two of three targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Patriots.

    Washington logged six regular-season appearances in 2025, in which span he secured three of five targets for 37 yards and fumbled once. The 2024 seventh-round pick saw the most playing time of his NFL career (20 offensive snaps) during Sunday's season finale against New England. Washington will enter the offseason competing to retain a depth role in the Dolphins' wide receiver corps.

  • Packers' Matthew Golden: Closes regular season with one grab

    Golden caught one of three targets for eight yards in Sunday's 16-3 loss to the Vikings. He finished his rookie regular season with 29 receptions for 361 yards on 44 targets and 10 rushes for 49 yards over 14 games.

    Golden saw a major increase in playing time in Week 18 with the Packers resting most of their key offensive players in the regular season finale. The rookie wideout played 100 percent of Green Bay's offensive snaps Sunday after averaging a sub-50 percent snap over his 13 prior games. After being drafted in the first round of the 2025 NFL Draft, the expectations surrounding Golden's ability to be an instant contributor this season were not met. However, the Texas product did flash his potential as a deep threat with the ability to stretch the field. His limited usage in a crowded receiving corps featuring the likes of Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed and Dontayvion Wicks ultimately capped his upside in his first year as a pro. Golden will continue to be extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as the Packers visit the Bears in the first round of the wild-card playoffs on Saturday.

  • Jayden Reed WR | GB

    Packers' Jayden Reed: Limited to eight snaps in Week 18

    Reed went without a target while taking the field for eight of the Packers' 51 snaps on offense in Sunday's 16-3 loss to the Vikings.

    The fact that Reed even played at all was notable in itself after the Packers opted to rest the vast majority of their starters, including fellow wideouts Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson, who were active but didn't receive any snaps. Reed dealt with an illness leading up to Sunday's game but ultimately didn't carry an injury designation into the regular-season finale. Assuming he can get in a full practice week, Reed shouldn't face any restrictions in Saturday's wild-card matchup with the Bears. Reed totaled seven catches for 66 yards in the Packers' two games against the Bears during the regular season.

  • Ashton Dulin WR | IND

    Colts' Ashton Dulin: Held without a catch in finale

    Dulin could not secure either of his two targets during Sunday's 38-30 season-finale loss to Houston.

    Dulin suited up for 12 regular-season appearances with the Colts in 2025, during which span he secured five of 10 targets for 106 receiving yards and logged three carries for 44 rushing yards. He also compiled a career-high 516 yards as a kick returner. He has one more year on his contract with Indianapolis, though the team has a potential "out" this offseason for only $670,000 in dead cap.

  • Romeo Doubs WR | GB

    Packers' Romeo Doubs: Rests in Week 18 loss

    Doubs was active but didn't play in Sunday's 16-3 loss to the Vikings.

    With Green Bay being locked into the No. 7 seed in the NFC playoffs entering Week 18, head coach Matt LaFleur opted to rest Doubs and several other key contributors in advance of the postseason. Doubs should be ready to go for Saturday's wild-card matchup with the Bears. In two games against Chicago during the regular season, Doubs caught a total of five passes for 84 yards and one touchdown, with all of that production coming in Week 16 after he was blanked on two targets in Week 14.

  • Packers' Christian Watson: No snaps in Week 18

    Watson was active but didn't play any snaps in Sunday's 16-3 loss to the Vikings.

    Though he suited up for Week 18, Watson didn't see any action after the Packers opted to rest most of their starters with an eye toward maintaining health heading into the wild-card round. Watson will likely play a prominent role in Saturday's playoff opener against Chicago. In two games against the Bears this season, Watson caught a total of six passes for 106 yards and two touchdowns.

  • David Moore WR | CAR

    Panthers' David Moore: Returns from IR

    The Panthers reinstated Moore (elbow) from injured reserve Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    The Panthers waited until his 21-day evaluation window came to a close Tuesday before bringing him back from IR. Carolina waived receiver Hunter Renfrow to clear a spot on the 53-man roster for Moore, who had recorded one reception for five yards on one target while adding 12 yards on his lone carry in four appearances before he landed on IR on Oct. 1 due to a dislocated elbow. Despite making a full recovery from the injury, Moore isn't guaranteed to be active for the Panthers' postseason opener Saturday versus the Rams.

  • Hunter Renfrow WR | CAR

    Hunter Renfrow: Loses roster spot

    The Panthers waived Renfrow on Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the team's official site reports.

    After sitting out the 2024 season, Renfrow joined the Panthers on a one-year deal during the offseason and was able to secure a spot on the roster coming out of the preseason. The veteran slot receiver saw plenty of involvement early in the season with a 15-89-2 receiving line on 26 targets through the Panthers' first six games, but he was a healthy inactive from Week 7 onward after Carolina got Jalen Coker back from injured reserve. Renfrow will now lose his spot on the roster in advance of the Panthers' wild-card game Saturday versus the Rams with Carolina opting to activate wideout David Moore (elbow) from IR in a corresponding move.
