Mingo caught one of six targets for six yards in Sunday's 33-10 loss to the Cowboys.

Mingo finished second on the Panthers in targets yet barely gained any yardage. Although Mingo is playing more than veteran wideout DJ Chark, rookie quarterback Bryce Young's usual struggles to connect with anyone other than Adam Thielen leaves Mingo's value lukewarm at best heading into Week 12's road game versus the Titans.

Chark played 44 offensive snaps yet was not targeted once in Sunday's 33-10 loss to the Cowboys.

Chark's performance is a new low in what's been a widely disappointing season with the Panthers. While rookie quarterback Bryce Young has found success targeting top wideout Adam Thielen, he's struggled mightily going to just about anyone else. Without a single look his way Sunday, Chark's stock has somehow dipped further as he now prepares for the team's Week 12 game at Tennessee.

Jennings failed to bring in his lone target in Sunday's 27-14 win over Tampa Bay.

Jennings was on the field for 33 percent of the 49ers' offensive plays Sunday, but he still went catch-less for the third time this year. San Francisco has been leaning on its top talent to reignite the team with two convincing wins coming out of the bye week. Unfortunately for Jennings, that has meant little work for he and the rest of the 49ers' role players. The 26-year-old has recorded just one reception over his last three games, which should keep him off of most fantasy radars heading into Thursday's matchup against the Seahawks.

Brown caught one of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's loss to the Giants.

An early ejection for Curtis Samuel didn't have much impact on Brown's playing time, as Byron Pringle and Jamison Crowder also took on some of the responsibilities of the No. 3 WR role. There's not much fantasy potential in an offense where even the top two wideouts -- Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson -- are struggling to produce.

Pringle caught each of his three targets for 33 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 31-19 loss to the Giants.

The fumble came at the end of a long kick return, spoiling an otherwise solid day for Pringle, who was one of three Commanders WRs to finish in the range of 25-to-35-percent snap share with Curtis Samuel ejected for fighting. The rotation behind the top three suggests Pringle won't have much value even if Samuel, Terry McLaurin and/or Jahan Dotson misses time over the final month and a half of the season.

Crowder caught both of his targets for 12 yards in a 31-19 loss to the Giants on Sunday.

Crowder, Dyami Brown and Byron Pringle each played 25-to-30 percent of snaps, splitting the No. 3 receiver role after Curtis Samuel was ejected for his role in a fight. Crowder had a 7-95-1 receiving line Week 8 against the Eagles but otherwise has just eight catches for 56 yards all year.

Saints head coach Dennis Allen said Monday that Thomas' knee injury is "going to take some time," though Allen didn't specify whether the receiver would require a stint on injured reserve, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

The Saints are coming off a Week 11 bye, but Thomas is still in recovery mode after he injured his right knee on the team's first offensive play of a Week 10 loss to Minnesota. He stayed on the field for the next play and recorded a reception, but he checked out of the game and visited the injury tent on the sideline before being ruled out for the rest of the day. Though the Saints haven't provided a proper diagnosis for Thomas' injury, Allen referred to it as a "significant" one week ago, making it unlikely that the wideout is ready to play this Sunday in Atlanta. Even if Thomas is ruled out ahead of the Week 12 game, he'll still be worth monitoring into Saturday, when New Orleans could place him on IR if there's an expectation he'll need at least four weeks to recover from the injury.

Hollins (ankle) didn't participate in practice during the portion of Monday's session that was open to the media, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.

Atlanta won't release its next injury report until Wednesday, but due to a Week 11 bye, the Falcons got a head start on their Week 12 prep by getting back on the field Monday for an unofficial session. Before the bye week, Hollins hadn't practiced in any fashion ahead of Atlanta's Week 10 loss to Arizona, so it's not the most encouraging sign for his status heading into Sunday's game against the Saints that he's not yet back on the field. If Hollins ends up missing a second straight game this weekend, Van Jefferson, KhaDarel Hodge and Scotty Miller could all be in store for expanded roles behind No. 1 wideout Drake London.

Jones wasn't targeted during Sunday's 34-14 win against the Titans.

The 25-year-old had an expanded role the past few weeks but wasn't involved in the passing game Sunday with Zay Jones (knee) back in action. Tim Jones is likely a couple injuries to Jacksonville's receiving corps away from having a notable role in the team's aerial attack.

Jackson was a healthy inactive in Sunday's loss at Denver.

Jackson had been getting some playing time as a fourth receiver the past few weeks, but he looks stuck on the bench with the return of K.J. Osborn from a concussion.
