  • Robbie Chosen WR | WAS

    Cardinals' Robbie Anderson: Records rare catch Sunday

    Anderson caught one of three targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 25-24 loss to the Chargers.

    For the first time in his six-game Cardinals tenure, Anderson earned more than 40 percent of the snaps in back-to-back outings. He also recorded the first catch with his new club that netted a positive gain. With Marquise Brown returning to the lineup Sunday following a five-game absence, he and DeAndre Hopkins (14 combined targets) will dominate the looks from quarterback Kyler Murray moving forward, leaving Anderson to fend for scraps after the team's Week 13 bye.

  • Colts' Michael Pittman: Scores second TD of 2022

    Pittman caught seven of 11 targets for 61 yards in Monday's 24-17 loss to the Steelers.

    Pittman's 16 receiving yards in the first half were enough for the team lead, as Matt Ryan mustered just 36 passing yards. The QB locked onto rookie tight end Jelani Woods (eight catches for 98 yards) for most of the second half but turned back to Pittman for a six-yard touchdown in the final minute of the third quarter. It was the wideout's first touchdown since Week 1. After the Steelers went back up 24-17, Pittman jump-started the Colts' last-gasp drive late in the fourth with a 28-yard catch, then picked up just enough to move the chains on 4th-and-three before the drive petered out on the next set of downs. He'll face Trevon Diggs and the Cowboys in Week 13.

  • George Pickens WR | DAL

    Steelers' George Pickens: Leading receiver in Week 12 win

    Pickens caught three of six targets for 57 yards and also scored a two-point conversion in Monday's 24-17 win over the Colts.

    Pickens got open in the end zone late in the first half, but rookie quarterback Kenny Pickett overthrew him. The pair linked up for a two-point conversion in the fourth quarter as Pittsburgh pulled ahead 24-17, so Pickens got a chance to celebrate in the end zone after all. The rookie wideout led the team in receiving yards, topping 50 for the fifth time in his last eight games. He'll have a nice opportunity to build on this effort in Week 13 against the vulnerable Atlanta secondary.

  • Robert Woods WR | PIT

    Titans' Robert Woods: Wastes six targets

    Woods recorded two receptions on six targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Bengals.

    Woods tied for the team lead with six targets, yet he averaged only 2.7 yards per target to turn in a disastrous performance. Positively, he's seen at least six targets in three consecutive games, though he's combined to post only 95 yards on 20 targets in that span. Unsurprisingly, Woods has completely lacked any big-play ability, as he has only three receptions of 20 yards or more and one score for the season.

  • Titans' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Four catches in loss to Bengals

    Westbrook-Ikhine recorded four catches on six targets for 58 yards in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Bengals.

    Westbrook-Ikhine continued his trend of being more involved in the Tennessee offense, as he managed multiple receptions in his third straight game after managing that feat only twice in his first eight matchups. He managed a pair of splash plays against the Bengals, tallying gains of 25 and 20 yards. Despite his positive play of late, Westbrook-Ikhine has still topped 50 receiving yards only three times on the campaign.

  • Alex Erickson WR | HOU

    Alex Erickson: Shifts back to practice squad

    Erickson reverted to the Commanders' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Erickson was elevated to the active roster and served as Washington's primary punt returner with Dax Milne (foot) inactive Sunday versus the Falcons. However, the practice-squad wideout would up with just two fair catches and no punt returns over his three special-teams snaps. Erickson also did not see any work on offense while running back Antonio Gibson handled kick-return duties Week 12. The 30-year-old receiver will now be eligible for two more elevations while with the Commanders' practice squad this season, and he could serve a similar role on special teams if Milne remains sidelined versus the Giants next Sunday.

  • Laquon Treadwell: Back to practice squad Monday

    Treadwell reverted to the Seahawks' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Treadwell was activated by Seattle for the first time since joining the team's practice squad Nov. 1, marking his first action of the 2022 campaign. The 27-year-old did not end up recording any offensive statistics while playing seven of his nine snaps on offense against Las Vegas. Treadwell will now be eligible for two more game-day activations while with the Seahawks in 2022.

  • Cornell Powell WR | PIT

    Cornell Powell: Heads back to practice squad

    Powell reverted to the Chiefs' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Powell was activated for the second game in a row with Mecole Hardman (abdomen) and Kadarius Toney (hamstring) both sidelined Week 12. However, the practice-squad wideout still served an extremely limited role in the Chiefs' banged-up receiving corps, playing just two of his 10 snaps on offense against the Rams. Powell has yet to record a catch in his NFL career, and he'll be eligible for one more elevation from Kansas City's practice squad this year.

  • Broncos' Brandon Johnson: Shifts back to practice squad

    Johnson reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Johnson served as Denver's No. 3 wideout after being elevated from the team's practice squad for the second game in a row. While he played fewer offensive snaps (42) than top receivers Courtland Sutton (56) and Kendall Hinton (55), the 24-year-old Johnson wound up catching the Broncos' lone touchdown on one of his two receptions for 10 yards against Carolina. He will now be eligible for just one more game-day activation before requiring a spot on the active roster to continue playing for Denver this season. Johnson will likely stand to fill a similar role if Jerry Jeudy (ankle) and KJ Hamler (hamstring) both remain sidelined against Baltimore in Week 13.

  • Seahawks' Marquise Goodwin: Records 48 yards in loss

    Goodwin caught all three of his targets for 48 yards in Sunday's 40-34 overtime loss to the Raiders.

    DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett continue to dominate the passing tree, as the duo combined for 22 targets Sunday. However, Goodwin has been quite efficient with his looks this season, as he has a 76 percent catch rate and 10.6 yards per target through nine games. He has large tournament DFS appeal moving forward, but he'll still be risky in season-long leagues until he gets more opportunities.
