Corley was not targeted, had one carry for nine yards and returned four kickoffs for 73 yards in Sunday's 26-8 loss to San Francisco in Week 13.

Under the NFL's new kickoff formation, returners typically average more than the 18 yards Corley managed Sunday. Unfortunately, he fielded one kick inches from the sideline and fell out of bounds. Had he allowed the kick to roll out of bounds, the Browns' struggling offense would have begun its possession at their own 40-yard line instead of in the shadow of its own goal-line. The Browns' kick returners had a bad day all around while fighting windy conditions, as punt returner Gage Larvadain committed three fumbles and lost one of them.

Bond secured one of two targets for 18 yards and gained another nine yards on one carry in Sunday's 26-8 loss to the 49ers in Week 13.

It's hard to get excited about anything related to the Cleveland's passing attack, but Bond's arrow appeared to be pointing slightly upward after he and quarterback Shedeur Sanders hooked up on a 52-yard play in Week 12. The target he didn't catch in Week 13 was on another deep throw. The rookie wideout has three catches on four targets for 76 yards in the two games in which the offense has been led by Sanders.

Tillman failed to catch his only target in Sunday's 26-8 loss to San Francisco in Week 13.

Tillman's lone target came early in the second quarter on a day when the wind impacted both team's quarterbacks. He had the second-most snaps among Cleveland's wide receivers, but the Browns' offense isn't structured for leading wideout Jerry Jeudy to hold much fantasy value, much less Tillman as its No. 2. Tillman has one catch on four targets the last two games with Shedeur Sanders under center, and his only two touchdowns this season came during the first two weeks of the season when Joe Flacco was chucking the ball.

Franklin had two receptions on three targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 27-26 overtime win over the Commanders.

Franklin cooled off considerably after seemingly taking over the No. 1 WR role for the Broncos in recent weeks. Courtland Sutton reclaimed that honor with a clean 5-62-1 receiving line that dwarfed Franklin's production on the national stage. The latter is still producing a strong sophomore campaign with 48 receptions for 530 yards and five touchdowns across 12 contests, but it hasn't been a smooth ride getting there. Franklin has been held under 40 receiving yards in half of his appearances this season, making him a volatile starting option with plenty of upside against the Raiders in Week 14.

Samuel recorded five receptions on seven targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 27-26 overtime loss to the Broncos.

Samuel was overshadowed by strong showings from both Terry McLaurin and Zach Ertz, but he had a solid performance of his own. He did the majority of his damage in overtime, recording a 38-yard reception down the right sideline that came two yards shy of the end zone. Samuel has at least five targets in each of his last five games, and his usage down the field has started to rebound, as he has three receptions of at least 20 yards combined across his last two games.

Sutton finished with five receptions on six targets for 62 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-26 overtime win over Washington on Sunday Night Football.

Sutton put it all together for his best receiving line since Week 4, when he finished with five receptions for 81 yards and a touchdown against the Bengals. The 29-year-old had registered just one touchdown grab over his previous seven appearances, so fantasy managers were delighted to see the wideout secure Bo Nix's lone touchdown pass in the primetime win. It was also a positive sign to see the veteran starter usurp Troy Franklin (2-21-0) in production after the inverse had held true in recent weeks. With a 50-711-5 receiving line across 12 starts, Sutton is providing enough value to stick in most fantasy lineups for a soft matchup against the Raiders next Sunday.

McLaurin recorded seven receptions on 14 targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-26 overtime loss to the Broncos.

McLaurin accounted for his normal snap count in a game for the first time since Week 2 and was on the field for the first time since Week 8. Even without Jayden Daniels (elbow) under center, McLaurin showed no signs of rust by leading the team in targets while logging three catches of more than 15 yards to record his highest yardage total in five contests this season. McLaurin also found the end zone in overtime, beating the Denver defense on a short slant over the middle from three yards away. While the Commanders came up short, McLaurin had a successful return and seemed to provide a boost to the entire unit.

Ayomanor recorded one reception on five targets for five yards in Sunday's 25-3 loss to the Jaguars.

Ayomanor returned from a one-game absence caused by a hamstring injury and immediately occupied a key role in the offense as one of four pass catchers with at least five targets. His only catch came early in the second quarter, and he has only three receptions for 16 yards on 11 targets in his last two contests.

Coleman secured two of three targets for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-7 win over the Steelers.

After being a healthy scratch in Buffalo's last two contests due to disciplinary reasons, Coleman made a triumphant return to the lineup by catching the only touchdown pass for either side in Sunday's win. It was a low-volume passing day overall, with no Bills player recording more than three receptions or 33 yards. Coleman's three targets finished in a tie for fourth among his teammates, making it tough to gauge the wideout's role moving forward. Now that he is out of head coach Sean McDermott's doghouse, Coleman can at least be viewed as a deep-league option in Week 14 against the Bengals.

Addison finished with five receptions on 10 targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to Seattle.

Third-string QB Max Brosmer struggled to deliver the ball to his top receivers in the first start of his career, instead throwing four picks while limiting WR Justin Jefferson to a career-low four yards. Addison led the Vikings in targets (10), but his quarterback's erratic play resulted in a forgettable line outside of PPR formats. It was, however, a marked improvement over the bagel the 23-year-old posted in last week's box score versus the Packers. Minnesota's entire passing attack takes a major hit with Brosmer under center, even with how poorly J.J. McCarthy (concussion) has played up until this point, so Addison's value will improve from poor to risky if his starting quarterback can return against Washington next Sunday.
