Byrd gathered in both of his two targets for 29 yards during Sunday's 27-24 win versus Chicago.

Byrd finished second on the team in receiving yards behind Kyle Pitts and has totaled nine receptions on 14 targets for 229 yards and two scores over his last five games. The veteran wideout has emerged as a quality option for Marcus Mariota during the middle of the season, but his inconsistent production makes him a risky fantasy play moving forward.

Gage (hamstring) is participating in Monday's practice, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

Gage is back at practice for the first time since injuring his hamstring in Week 7, so it appears that he benefited from Tampa Bay's bye week. If he is able to ramp up his activity without any setbacks, he could return to action Sunday versus Cleveland.

Hodge gathered in his only target for 13 yards during Sunday's 27-24 victory versus Chicago.

Hodge secured a 13-yard reception for a first down on the Falcons' first drive of the game, which ultimately ended in a Drake London touchdown. However, the fifth-year wideout wasn't targeted again the rest of the way, as Marcus Mariota only attempted 20 passes. Over his last three appearances, Hodge has caught four of five targets for 69 yards and a score, but he's played just 29 offensive snaps during that stretch.

Zaccheaus hauled in one of two targets for nine yards during Sunday's 27-24 victory versus Chicago. He also rushed once for 13 yards.

Marcus Mariota completed 13 passes to nine different receivers, which limited the fantasy potential for all of Atlanta's pass catchers. Zaccheaus failed to record multiple receptions for just the second time all season, totaling 25 catches on 31 targets for 374 yards and two scores across 11 appearances. The undrafted wideout should be on fantasy radars in deeper leagues, but his lack of prolific production likely keeps him irrelevant in most standard leagues.

London reeled in one of three targets for two yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 27-24 win over the Bears.

London gave the Falcons an early 7-0 lead with a two-yard score to finish the first drive of the game. However, the rookie wideout saw only two targets the rest of the way and failed to secure another catch, marking his second game with one or fewer receptions. Regardless, London has now scored a touchdown in back-to-back weeks and has four scores across 11 appearances, though he's failed to top 50 receiving yards in eight straight games after reaching that plateau in each of his first three contests.

Shaheed hauled in one of two targets for eight yards during Sunday's 27-20 victory over the Rams.

Shaheed's primary value continues to come on special teams, as he ran back four punts for a season-high 40 yards. After putting up two touchdowns and 97 total yards on his first two touches of the season, the 24-year-old has come back down to earth with two receptions on three targets for 20 yards over the past three weeks. While Shaheed did play a season-high 28 offensive snaps, his production will be capped now that New Orleans' receiving corps is back to full health outside of Michael Thomas (toe).

Olszewski secured two of three targets for 39 yards during the Steelers' 37-30 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

Olszewski had his first reception of the season last week and had an uptick in offensive production during Sunday's Week 11 matchup. He played 42 percent of the team's offensive snaps and was relatively efficient with his limited opportunities. While the 25-year-old has been slightly more involved in Pittsburgh's offense after the team traded Chase Claypool to the Bears, Olszewski still hasn't had a very fantasy-relevant role for managers outside of deeper leagues.

Dorsett did not catch his lone target and played 14 snaps in Sunday's 23-10 loss to Washington

Dorsett's usage was down after he entered the game on an upswing, having caught eight of 17 targets for 142 yards and a touchdown over the last four games. The Texans claimed wideout Amari Rodgers off waivers from Green Bay last week, so Dorsett's role could diminish even further down the stretch.

Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Robinson suffered an ACL tear in his right knee during Sunday's 31-18 loss to the Lions and will require season-ending surgery in the coming days, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Robinson becomes the third member of a depleted Giants receiving corps to suffer a season-ending injury, joining Sterling Shepard (ACL) and Collin Johnson (Achilles). After recovering from another injury to his right knee that limited him to nine snaps over the first five games of the season, Robinson had emerged as one of the few reliable targets for Daniel Jones. In Weeks 6 through 11, the 5-foot-8, 185-pound wideout totaled 22 receptions for 222 yards and a touchdown on 30 targets. Due to the timing of the injury and his upcoming surgery, Robinson is likely to miss the Giants' entire offseason program, and his rehab and recovery could extend into the start of the 2023 season. The Giants now are left with Darius Slayton and Kenny Golladay atop the depth chart at wide receiver, with Isaiah Hodgins, Marcus Johnson, Richie James and David Sills as depth options.

Moore caught five of seven targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Commanders. He added one carry for three yards.

He has taken hold of the slot receiver job, which had been slated for rookie John Metchie (illness), and Moore's caught 12 of 18 targets for 133 yards and a touchdown over the last three weeks. Had the Texans traded Brandin Cooks, Moore's value might have increased even further, but he remains stuck in the third spot on the depth chart.
