  • Dolphins' Trent Sherfield: No catches in divisional loss

    Sherfield could not secure his only target during Saturday's 32-29 loss to the Bills.

    Sherfield had seen 17 targets in his last four games prior to Saturday's loss, so his lack of involvement could have been partially due to adverse weather conditions. The Dolphins get a home matchup against the Packers in Week 16, but Sherfield's fantasy relevance is still restricted to extremely deep formats.

  • Jamal Agnew WR | ATL

    Jaguars' Jamal Agnew: Contributes in ground game

    Agnew caught two of three targets for 12 yards, rushed three times for 52 yards and returned one punt for 13 yards during Sunday's 40-34 overtime win against Dallas.

    Agnew found plenty of running room on the jet sweep in this one with carries of 30 and 18 yards. The 27-year-old played only 10 offensive snaps and hasn't played more than 17 in a game this season, but he continues to be involved during his brief time on the field.

  • Marvin Jones WR | DET

    Jaguars' Marvin Jones: Catches touchdown in OT win

    Jones caught two of six targets for 17 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 40-34 overtime win over the Cowboys.

    The veteran wideout finished fourth on the team in targets, and his only play of note Sunday was a 10-yard touchdown reception during the third quarter. Jones has eight catches for 111 yards and two touchdowns across the past five games. He has a limited role in Jacksonville's aerial attack and doesn't have much fantasy utility while Christian Kirk and Zay Jones remain healthy.

  • Falcons' Olamide Zaccheaus: Held without a catch

    Zaccheaus didn't record a catch on three targets during Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Saints.

    Zaccheaus was held without a catch for the first time this season. Atlanta's passing game struggled as a unit with Desmond Ridder making his NFL debut, and Drake London, who finished with seven receptions on 11 targets for 70 yards, dominated the majority of the work through the air. Coming into the contest, Zaccheaus had secured 32 of 44 targets for 478 yards and two touchdowns across 13 appearances, making him worthy of consideration in deeper leagues. However, what little fantasy value Zaccheaus had with Marcus Mariota (knee) may be gone, with Ridder set to start Atlanta's final three regular season games.

  • Corey Davis WR | NYJ

    Jets' Corey Davis: Looking good for Week 16

    Coach Robert Saleh said Monday that he's "very confident" Davis (concussion) will be available Thursday versus the Jaguars, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

    Davis missed Sunday's loss to the Lions while working his way through the concussion protocols, but the Jets appear optimistic that his absence will be limited to one game. Saleh refused to confirm whether Mike White (ribs) will start Thursday or if the team will continue to roll with Zach Wilson, per Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record, but Davis has had flashes of success with both QBs this season. He posted a season-high 85 yards with White under center in Week 15 but recorded a 5-74-1 line catching passes from Wilson in Week 4.

  • Steven Sims WR | ARI

    Steelers' Steven Sims: Logs 29 yards from scrimmage

    Sims secured one of two targets for 10 yards while rushing twice for 19 yards during the Steelers' 24-16 win over Carolina on Sunday.

    Sims totaled 31 yards during last week's loss to the Ravens and fell just short of that mark against the Panthers, but it was still encouraging to see him slightly more involved in Pittsburgh's offense. He's played at least 43 percent of the team's offensive snaps in three of the last five weeks but remains a lackluster fantasy option at this point.

  • Broncos' Brandon Johnson: Catches three passes

    Johnson caught three of four targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 24-15 win over the Cardinals.

    Johnson operated as Denver's No. 2 receiver behind Jerry Jeudy, playing 41 of the Broncos' 69 offensive snaps in the contest. The rookie's 30 receiving yards were second to only Jeudy, who finished the game with 76 yards of his own. Johnson's recent bump in playing time is a result of Courtland Sutton (hamstring), KJ Hamler (hamstring) and Kendall Hinton (hamstring) all missing time, but his usage has not resulted in much fantasy production. Johnson will see a substantial dip in playing time once the Broncos receiving group gets healthier, but even before that happens, the 24-year old wideout should remain far off the fantasy radar when the Broncos visit the Rams in Week 16.

  • Panthers' Laviska Shenault: No touches Sunday

    Shenault didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Steelers.

    Shenault suited up despite being listed with a shoulder injury during the week. Ultimately, though, he only featured for 13 offensive snaps, enabling Shi Smith to assume third-wideout duties for the Panthers.

  • Shi Smith WR | KC

    Panthers' Shi Smith: Makes one catch

    Smith caught one of three targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 24-16 loss to the Steelers.

    Smith garnered the third-most snaps of Carolina's receivers, featuring for nearly half of the offensive plays. His lone reception tied for his second longest of the campaign, but as a complementary wideout in an underwhelming passing attack, Smith holds little weekly value.

  • Amari Rodgers WR | IND

    Texans' Amari Rodgers: Serves as third wideout

    Rodgers caught two of three targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 30-24 overtime loss to Kansas City.

    Rodgers, who caught four passes and his first career touchdown in Week 14, once again benefitted from Brandin Cooks (calf) and Nico Collins (foot) being unavailable. He was third among wideouts in playing time (32 snaps), behind Chris Moore (55) and Phillip Dorsett (54), and he out-targeted Dorsett for a second straight week.
