Williams (ankle) is listed as active for Sunday night's game against the Chiefs.

Also in uniform is Keenan Allen (hamstring), with the Chargers' top two wideouts making their first appearances in a game since Week 7. According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Williams is expected to log a full workload in the contest, while Allen could be on something of a pitch count that may be in the range of 30-35 snaps. Prior to suffering his ankle injury, Williams made a fantasy mark by racking up 37 catches (on 59 targets) for a team-high 495 receiving yards and three TDs in seven contests. Now that Allen and Williams are both back in the mix, Joshua Palmer and DeAndre Carter figure to return to lesser roles in Los Angeles' passing attack.

Allen (hamstring) is listed as active for Sunday night's game against the Chiefs.

Also in action is Mike Williams (ankle), with Los Angeles' top two wideouts making their first game appearances since Week 7. Per Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, Williams is expected to garner a full workload in the contest, while Allen could be on something of a pitch count, possibly in the range of 30-35 snaps. That figures to be enough work for Allen to be a factor in Week 11, but it may take him some time to get back into his usual high-volume role. Meanwhile, Joshua Palmer and DeAndre Carter figure to return to lesser roles in the offense now that Allen and Williams are both back in the mix.

Davis brought in five of seven targets for 68 yards in the Bills' 31-23 win over the Browns on Sunday.

Davis checked in second in receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon for the Bills while sharing the team lead in targets with Dawson Knox. The speedster also had a drop that would have made his day even bigger, but he'll still head into Thursday's return to Ford Field for a Week 12 Thanksgiving showdown against the Lions with an 11-161-1 line over his last two games.

Slayton had five receptions on 10 targets for 86 yards in Sunday's 31-18 loss to Detroit.

Slayton continued his recent run of strong play with another productive outing despite the losing effort. The 25-year-old is averaging 4.0 receptions and 75.8 yards with two touchdowns over his last four contests. Slayton is a proven wideout who is being asked to lead a depleted receiver room in New York, resulting in consistent fantasy production from a player that might still be available on waiver wires. Fellow starting wideout Wan'Dale Robinson (9/100/0) left the game in the fourth quarter with a knee injury, so Slayton could be in line for even more targets on a short week against the Cowboys on Thursday.

Peoples-Jones brought in five of six targets for 61 yards and a touchdown in the Browns' 31-23 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Peoples-Jones checked in second in receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon for the Browns in another productive day in conjunction with Jacoby Brissett. He's logged seven consecutive games with at least 50 yards. The speedy wideout also recorded his first touchdown of the campaign when he brought in a two-yard scoring grab with 19 seconds remaining. Peoples-Jones has already generated a career-high 40 receptions and is just 21 yards short of his high-water mark of 597 yards while working with Brissett over his first nine games, and he'll have one more opportunity to do so in Week 12 versus the Buccaneers before Deshaun Watson (suspension) takes over in Week 13.

Olave caught five of six targets for 102 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 27-20 victory versus the Rams.

Olave led the Saints in receptions and receiving yards with the team's pass-catching corps at full strength outside of Deonte Harty (foot) and Michael Thomas (toe), who are both out on IR. After catching his lone target of the first half for 12 yards, the first-round rookie logged three receptions of 14 yards or more in the second half. Olave also reeled in a 53-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Andy Dalton in the third quarter, marking the wideout's longest reception of the season. This game represents a resurgent performance for Dalton and the entire New Orleans' passing offense, though it could be tough replicating these results next week against the 49ers.

Pierce caught three passes for 28 yards on eight targets against Philadelphia on Sunday.

Pierce's target count was encouraging, and his weak efficiency is rationalized by the fact that it was a very difficult matchup. Pierce saw a lot of Darius Slay, the top Eagles corner and one of the league's best corners in general. The Steelers don't have any such cover men on their defense, so Pierce has a good chance to get back on track against Pittsburgh in Week 12.

Jefferson brought in three of five targets for 41 yards in the Rams' 27-20 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Jefferson was just behind co-leaders Allen Robinson and Tyler Higbee in receptions in the Rams' first game without Cooper Kupp (ankle). The speedy third-year wideout should continue to enjoy a progressively elevated role in coming weeks, but the fact Matthew Stafford was forced to re-enter concussion protocol Sunday casts doubt over the entirety of the air attack's potential for a Week 12 road battle against the Chiefs.

Claypool caught two passes on three targets for 11 yards in the Bears' 27-24 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

In three games with Chicago, Claypool has five catches for 32 yards, and he has only five targets over the last two weeks. With Darnell Mooney and Cole Kmet seeming to be bigger priorities in the Bears' low-volume passing attack, Claypool remains a risky fantasy option.

Robinson secured four of five targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in the Rams' 27-20 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Robinson tied for the team lead in receptions alongside Tyler Higbee and also checked in second in receiving yards. Robinson found the end zone for the third time this season on a six-yard touchdown grab just before the end of the first half. Robinson is in line to serve as the de facto top target during Cooper Kupp's (ankle) absence, but with Matthew Stafford now back in concussion protocol, it remains to be seen who the veteran wideout will be working with in a Week 12 road showdown against the Chiefs.
