Chase caught seven passes for 97 yards in the Bengals' 27-24 win over the Chiefs on Sunday.

Chase didn't get in the end zone, but he wrought plenty of damage on the Chiefs' secondary, and when he wasn't targeted he drew away coverage to leave others open. He had an additional catch overturned by an offensive pass interference call.

Pettis caught one pass for 14 yards in the Bears' 28-19 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Pettis has caught one or fewer passes in all but two games this season, and unless his role changes, he won't be a reliable fantasy option.

Aiyuk caught five of nine targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 33-17 win over the Dolphins.

Starting quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) was knocked out of the game after one offensive drive, forcing rookie Brock Purdy into action for the remainder of the game. Aiyuk saw his usual allotment of targets with the 49ers' third quarterback this season, but half of his production came on the aforementioned first drive of the game. With Jimmy G already being ruled out for the remainder of the season, the blossoming wideout figures to take a slight hit in value with the downgrade at quarterback. That said, Aiyuk should maintain flex appeal heading into a Week 14 tilt against the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Samuel (quadriceps) had six receptions on 10 targets for 58 yards and rushed four times for five yards in Sunday's 33-17 win over the Dolphins.

Samuel entered the contest managing a quadriceps injury and was seen walking gingerly off the field at the end of a quiet first half. The physical wideout stayed in the contest and made some incredible plays in the second half to help jumpstart the offense, much to the relief of concerned fantasy managers. It is worth noting that this performance came almost entirely with rookie third-string quarterback Brock Purdy under center after Jimmy Garoppolo (foot) was carted off on the 49ers' first offensive drive. The latter has already been ruled out for the rest of the year, so Samuel and the rest of San Francisco's receiving unit figure to take a slight hit in ROS projections with Purdy under center. Samuel played a physical game at less than 100 percent, so do not be surprised if he is limited in practice ahead of Sunday's matchup against Tampa Bay.

St. Brown caught three of four targets for 85 yards in Sunday's 28-19 loss to the Packers. He also rushed once for a yard.

St. Brown went for a 56-yard grab, marking the longest gain of his four-year career, which was spent with Green Bay prior to this season. That play helped St. Brown lead the Bears in receiving yards, but his output wasn't enough to beat his former team. With a season-best performance, though, the wideout at least heads into Chicago's bye week on a high note individually.

Sherfield's only catch on three targets went for a 75-yard touchdown in Sunday's 33-17 loss to the 49ers.

Sherfield started with a bang, as his touchdown came on the very first offensive play of the game and comfortably marked the longest gain of his career. Although he didn't make any other catches, Sherfield could garner more looks in Week 14 versus the Chargers should teammate Jaylen Waddle continue to be impacted by a leg injury suffered Sunday.

Smith recorded five receptions on eight targets for 102 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 35-10 win over the Titans.

Smith recorded three receptions of at least 20 yards to top the century mark for the second time on the campaign. He also chipped in his fourth receiving touchdown of the season on a 34-yard reception only three minutes into the game. Smith has been out-performed by teammate A.J. Brown for much of the season, though he's still on pace to surpass the production from his rookie campaign in nearly every metric heading into a Week 14 matchup against the Giants.

Johnson recorded five receptions on 11 targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 19-16 win over Atlanta.

Johnson commanded double-digit targets for the first time since Week 7, though he still managed only a mediocre performance. His longest gain of the day went for 20 yards, and he remained inefficient while also recording a drop that was originally ruled a fumble. Johnson has topped 63 receiving yards in a game only once this season and has yet to find the end zone.

Waddle caught just one of five targets for nine yards in Sunday's 33-17 loss to the 49ers.

Waddle's uncharacteristically low output came while he played through a leg injury against arguably the league's best defense. With Waddle moving gingerly, the Dolphins relied on teammate Tyreek Hill, who caught nine passes for 146 yards and a touchdown. Following his season-worst performance, Waddle's status will be important to track in advance of Week 14's matchup versus the Chargers. If his usage is impacted, Trent Sherfield, River Cracraft and Cedrick Wilson would figure to benefit from extra looks.

Hill caught nine of 13 targets for 146 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-17 loss to the 49ers.

Hill comfortably led the Dolphins in all major receiving categories, as teammate Jaylen Waddle managed just one catch for nine yards while playing through a leg injury. In signature Hill fashion, the speedster broke free for a 45-yard touchdown bomb to begin the fourth quarter. In doing so, Hill has now scored three times in his last four games, and Sunday incredibly marked his sixth outing with at least 140 receiving yards this season. Arguably the league's most explosive wideout, Hill next faces a Chargers secondary that surrendered over 175 yards and two touchdowns to Raiders standout Davante Adams on Sunday.
