  • Roman Wilson WR | PIT

    Steelers' Roman Wilson: Held without catch once again

    Wilson failed to secure his lone target during Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Bills.

    Wilson had double-digit receiving yards in five of six appearances following the Steelers' Week 5 bye, but he's failed to secure any of his four targets over the past two games. Over his 12 appearances this season, Wilson has secured 12 of 21 targets for 166 yards and two touchdowns.

  • Jaylin Lane WR | WAS

    Commanders' Jaylin Lane: Blanks in Week 13

    Lane failed to catch his lone target in Sunday night's 27-26 overtime loss to the Broncos.

    With the return of Terry McLaurin in Week 13, Lane's offensive role was limited. The rookie from Virginia Tech went without a catch for the first time all season and tied his career low in targets during Sunday night's loss. Lane has now caught 16 of 31 targets for 225 yards while also accumulating 279 total return yards through the Commanders' first 12 games this season. He's likely to play a depth role in the team's receiving corps in the Week 14 matchup against the Vikings.

  • Marvin Mims WR | DEN

    Broncos' Marvin Mims: Minimal production in Week 13

    Mims caught both of his targets for eight yards and rushed once for nine yards in Sunday's 27-26 overtime win over the Commanders.

    Mims was unable to get much going with his three touches Sunday, as the 23-year-old wideout was not used downfield in Denver's passing attack. The third-year receiver played just 28 of the Broncos' 70 offensive snaps, operating behind Courtland Sutton (57), Pat Bryant (49) and Troy Franklin (37). Mims has played over 50 percent of snaps just twice this season and has not hit that snap share since Week 7. The Oklahoma product should not be trusted for fantasy purposes when the Broncos visit the Raiders in Week 14.

  • Steelers' Calvin Austin: No catches against Buffalo

    Austin failed to secure either of his two targets during Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Bills.

    Austin has had limited production for most of the season, but Sunday's Week 13 loss marked the first time this year that he was held without a catch. Across 10 appearances this year, he's secured 26 of 44 targets for 278 yards and two touchdowns.

  • Xavier Weaver WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Xavier Weaver: Blanks in Week 13

    Weaver failed to catch his lone target during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Weaver went without a catch for the fifth time this season in the Cardinals' Week 13 loss. However, he still played 30 offensive snaps, which was the third most amongst Arizona wideouts Sunday. Weaver has caught just three of eight targets for 24 yards in seven appearances this season, and he'll likely remain a minimal portion of the Cardinals' offense in the Week 14 matchup against the Rams.

  • Pat Bryant WR | DEN

    Broncos' Pat Bryant: Three grabs against Washington

    Bryant caught three of seven targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 27-26 overtime win over the Commanders.

    Bryant's seven targets were a career high for the rookie wide receiver. The 22-year-old wideout played 49 of the Broncos' 70 offensive snaps Sunday, second behind Courtland Sutton (57) and ahead of Troy Franklin (37), Marvin Mims (23) and Lil'Jordan Humphrey (14). Bryant continues to see his opportunities increase in Denver's offense, providing quarterback Bo Nix with yet another playmaker in their aerial attack. The Illinois product is worth monitoring going forward, but with so many mouths to feed in the Broncos offense, he'll likely struggle to consistently produce for fantasy purposes. Bryant will look to take another step forward, however, when the Broncos visit the Raiders in Week 14.

  • Buccaneers' Jalen McMillan: Could practice this week

    Coach Todd Bowles said Monday that McMillan (neck) could practice this week, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    McMillan suffered multiple neck fractures and ligament damage in an Aug. 16 preseason game. The injuries landed McMillan on injured reserve, where he's spent the first 13 weeks of the season. Bowles added that McMillan had to adjust to wearing a helmet again to see how strong his neck is following the injuries. While McMillan could begin practicing this week, Bowles said both McMillan and Mike Evans (collarbone) "have a little ways to go before playing," according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. The Bucs haven't had their entire wideout room healthy yet this season.

  • Greg Dortch WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Greg Dortch: Catches two passes in loss

    Dortch caught both of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Although Jacoby Brissett threw the ball 40 times in the Week 13 loss, Dortch saw minimal usage due to the return of Marvin Harrison. The Wake Forest product has now caught 29 of 33 targets for 206 yards and three touchdowns while also taking seven carries for 15 yards and a score through the Cardinals' first 12 games. He's expected to play a small offensive role and operate as Arizona's top return man in the Week 14 matchup against the Rams.

  • Mike Evans WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Could return to practice this week

    Coach Todd Bowles said Monday that Evans (collarbone) could begin practicing this week, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.

    Evans is eligible to come off injured reserve at any moment, but it doesn't sound like a return to game action is in the cards for Week 14 against the Saints. Bowles said Monday that both Evans and Jalen McMillan (neck) "have a little ways to go before playing," according to Rick Stroud of the Tampa Bay Times. Tampa Bay hosts New Orleans next Sunday before then having a quick Week 15 turnaround ahead of a date with the Falcons on Thursday, Dec. 11. Perhaps a Week 16 return versus Carolina would make the most sense for both wideouts.

  • Adam Thielen WR | PIT

    Adam Thielen: Cut by Minnesota

    The Vikings waived Thielen on Monday.

    Thielen announced on social media Monday that the 2025 season will be his last in the NFL, and he'd like the opportunity to play for a contender over the final five weeks of the season. Acquired from the Panthers ahead of Week 1, Thielen started three of the first four games of the season while Jordan Addison was suspended, but Thielen's role has continued to shrink ever since. After playing just three offensive snaps Week 12, Thielen was a heathy inactive for Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Seahawks. On the year, Thielen has an 8-69-0 line on 18 targets across 11 games. The 35-year-old doesn't appear to have a whole lot left in the tank.
