Marquise Brown WR | PHI
Cardinals' Marquise Brown: Struggles in loss
Brown recorded four receptions on eight targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 24-15 loss to the Broncos.
Brown finished second on the team with eight targets, but that was the most noteworthy part of his performance. His longest reception went for only nine yards, and he managed only one reception for three yards across the final two quarters of the game. While Brown was likely hampered by playing with Arizona's second and third-string quarterbacks, he was outgained by three Arizona pass catchers. In three contests since returning from injured reserve, Brown now has 119 total yards and has yet to surpass 50 yards in a single game.

Mack Hollins WR | NE
Raiders' Mack Hollins: Finds end zone in win
Hollins caught four of eight targets for 40 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Patriots.
New England focused on shutting down Davante Adams and succeeded, holding him to four catches for 28 yards, but Derek Carr turned to other options instead and hit Hollins for a five-yard score just before halftime. Even with the return of Hunter Renfrow and Darren Waller from injured reserve, Hollins remained involved in the game plan and caught multiple passes for the ninth straight game, a streak he'll look to extend in Week 16 against the Steelers.

Mike Evans WR | SF
Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Tied for team lead in yards
Evans had five receptions on 10 targets for 83 yards in Sunday's 34-23 loss to Cincinnati.
Evans finished tied for the team lead in receiving yards with fellow starter Chris Godwin (8/83/1), but it was the latter who was the recipient of one of Tom Brady's trio of touchdown passes. Evans is on pace for his ninth straight 1,000-yard season with 888 yards through 13 contests, but the shocking lack of touchdowns (three) have held him back in the fantasy rankings this year. Evans will look to get right in a soft matchup against Arizona's porous secondary in Week 16.

Davante Adams WR | LAR
Raiders' Davante Adams: Shut down by Pats
Adams caught four of nine targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Patriots.
The New England secondary made sure Adams wasn't going to beat them, and he got held to his lowest yardage total since Week 8. However, he averaged 7.3 catches for 122.5 yards and 1.2 TDs in the six games between those duds, a level Adams will aim to return to in Week 16 against the Steelers.

Nsimba Webster WR | CHI
Bears' Nsimba Webster: Records first NFL receptions
Webster caught two passes for 14 yards in the Bears' 25-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
Primarily a special-teams player during this three years in the league, Webster came into this game having played just nine offensive snaps over 27 career games. If the Bears continue to have wide receivers miss games due to injury, he could continue to see snaps at receiver. Unless his role grows, his fantasy value will remain minimal.

Velus Jones Jr. WR | SEA
Bears' Velus Jones: Loses costly fumble
Jones caught one pass for three yards and rushed once for no gain in the Bears' 25-20 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
With the Bears trying to mount a late comeback, Jones fumbled the ball, leading to an Eagles recovery and lowering Chicago's chances of pulling off an upset. On the season, he has just 75 yards while playing on offense, and his most significant fantasy value is in leagues that reward return yardage.

Michael Woods II WR | DEN
Browns' Michael Woods: Steps in for Bell
Woods caught one of two targets for four yards and carried once for minus-5 yards in Saturday's 13-3 win over Baltimore in Week 15.
Woods was the primary beneficiary of David Bell's thumb injury and Anthony Schwartz's concussion. He played a season-high 41 snaps and had just his third reception. The Browns also used Daylen Baldwin as a third wideout; he caught two passes and was on the field for 12 snaps.

Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC
Patriots' Jakobi Meyers: Quiet day ends in disaster
Meyers caught two of six targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 30-24 loss to the Raiders.
The entire Patriots passing game struggled, and Meyers wound up leading the team in receiving yards in his return from a one-game absence due to a concussion, but his performance was marred by a nightmarish ending. With the score tied, the Patriots tried to produce a miracle touchdown on their final play, only for Meyers' attempted back pass to Mac Jones to wind up being grabbed by Chandler Jones instead, who rumbled the other way for the game-winning score. Meyers hasn't topped 62 yards in eight straight appearances, and he may need to be more productive in Week 16 as the Patriots try to keep up with Joe Burrow and the Bengals.

Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE
Broncos' Jerry Jeudy: Records seven receptions
Jeudy recorded seven receptions on eight targets for 76 yards in Sunday's 24-15 win over Arizona.
As expected, Jeudy led Denver's receiving corps in targets, receptions and yards with Courtland Sutton (hamstring) still sidelined. Jeudy's performance was highlighted by gains of 19 and 14 yards, though he otherwise worked primarily in the short areas of the field. While he wasn't able to repeat his three-touchdown performance from Week 14, Jeudy has 17 targets and 149 yards combined across his last two games.
