Tyquan Thornton WR | KC
Patriots' Tyquan Thornton: Catches one pass Sunday
Thornton logged 60 of a possible 65 snaps on offense en route to catching one of his four targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Raiders, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
Thornton saw added work Week 15 with DeVante Parker (concussion) out, but with QB Mac Jones throwing for just 112 yards, the 2022 second-rounder -- who caught four passes Week 14 -- didn't yield much production from a fantasy perspective. With 17 catches for 166 yards and a TD on 33 targets in 10 games, Thornton is off the lineup radar in all but the deepest of formats.

Nelson Agholor WR | BAL
Patriots' Nelson Agholor: One catch in Week 15
Agholor was on the field for 54 of a possible 65 snaps on offense en route to catching one of his six targets for three yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Raiders, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
After hauling in five of his 10 targets for 32 yards in the Patriots' win over the Cardinals last Monday, Agholor's production dipped Week 15 in a contest in which QB Mac Jones threw for just 112 yards. Down the stretch, different game scripts and improved efficiency could help Agholor bounce back, but he still profiles as a hit-or-miss fantasy option ahead of Saturday's game against the Bengals.

Cedrick Wilson Jr. WR | DET
Dolphins' Cedrick Wilson: Makes only catch memorable
Wilson secured one of two targets for 21 yards during Saturday's 32-29 loss to the Bills.
Wilson's only grab came in the form of a leaping contested catch midway through the fourth quarter, an impressive play that could potentially earn him more playing time down the stretch. The Dolphins have financial incentive to get Wilson more involved, after handing him a three-year, $22.8 million contract in the offseason, and this is a much-needed glimmer of the playmaking abilities he displayed while going 45-602-6 with the Cowboys in 2021.

Trent Sherfield WR | BUF
Dolphins' Trent Sherfield: No catches in divisional loss
Sherfield could not secure his only target during Saturday's 32-29 loss to the Bills.
Sherfield had seen 17 targets in his last four games prior to Saturday's loss, so his lack of involvement could have been partially due to adverse weather conditions. The Dolphins get a home matchup against the Packers in Week 16, but Sherfield's fantasy relevance is still restricted to extremely deep formats.

Jamal Agnew WR | ATL
Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Contributes in ground game
Agnew caught two of three targets for 12 yards, rushed three times for 52 yards and returned one punt for 13 yards during Sunday's 40-34 overtime win against Dallas.
Agnew found plenty of running room on the jet sweep in this one with carries of 30 and 18 yards. The 27-year-old played only 10 offensive snaps and hasn't played more than 17 in a game this season, but he continues to be involved during his brief time on the field.

Marvin Jones WR | DET
Jaguars' Marvin Jones: Catches touchdown in OT win
Jones caught two of six targets for 17 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Cowboys.
The veteran wideout finished fourth on the team in targets, and his only play of note Sunday was a 10-yard touchdown reception during the third quarter. Jones has eight catches for 111 yards and two touchdowns across the past five games. He has a limited role in Jacksonville's aerial attack and doesn't have much fantasy utility while Christian Kirk and Zay Jones remain healthy.

Olamide Zaccheaus WR | ATL
Falcons' Olamide Zaccheaus: Held without a catch
Zaccheaus didn't record a catch on three targets during Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Saints.
Zaccheaus was held without a catch for the first time this season. Atlanta's passing game struggled as a unit with Desmond Ridder making his NFL debut, and Drake London, who finished with seven receptions on 11 targets for 70 yards, dominated the majority of the work through the air. Coming into the contest, Zaccheaus had secured 32 of 44 targets for 478 yards and two touchdowns across 13 appearances, making him worthy of consideration in deeper leagues. However, what little fantasy value Zaccheaus had with Marcus Mariota (knee) may be gone, with Ridder set to start Atlanta's final three regular season games.

Corey Davis WR | NYJ
Jets' Corey Davis: Looking good for Week 16
Coach Robert Saleh said Monday that he's "very confident" Davis (concussion) will be available Thursday versus the Jaguars, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.
Davis missed Sunday's loss to the Lions while working his way through the concussion protocols, but the Jets appear optimistic that his absence will be limited to one game. Saleh refused to confirm whether Mike White (ribs) will start Thursday or if the team will continue to roll with Zach Wilson, per Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record, but Davis has had flashes of success with both QBs this season. He posted a season-high 85 yards with White under center in Week 15 but recorded a 5-74-1 line catching passes from Wilson in Week 4.

Steven Sims WR | ARI
Steelers' Steven Sims: Logs 29 yards from scrimmage
Sims secured one of two targets for 10 yards while rushing twice for 19 yards during the Steelers' 24-16 win over Carolina on Sunday.
Sims totaled 31 yards during last week's loss to the Ravens and fell just short of that mark against the Panthers, but it was still encouraging to see him slightly more involved in Pittsburgh's offense. He's played at least 43 percent of the team's offensive snaps in three of the last five weeks but remains a lackluster fantasy option at this point.
-
Brandon Johnson WR | LV
Broncos' Brandon Johnson: Catches three passes
Johnson caught three of four targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 24-15 win over the Cardinals.
Johnson operated as Denver's No. 2 receiver behind Jerry Jeudy, playing 41 of the Broncos' 69 offensive snaps in the contest. The rookie's 30 receiving yards were second to only Jeudy, who finished the game with 76 yards of his own. Johnson's recent bump in playing time is a result of Courtland Sutton (hamstring), KJ Hamler (hamstring) and Kendall Hinton (hamstring) all missing time, but his usage has not resulted in much fantasy production. Johnson will see a substantial dip in playing time once the Broncos receiving group gets healthier, but even before that happens, the 24-year old wideout should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Broncos visit the Rams in Week 16.
