Kirk caught six of nine targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 25-22 win over the Cowboys.

Kyler Murray did a good job spreading the ball around, as Kirk led the Cards in receiving yards but Zach Ertz led in receptions with seven, while Antoine Wesley was on the end of both of Murray's TD passes. Kirk has a 25-307-1 line on 36 targets over the last four games as the team's de facto No. 1 wideout, giving him plenty of momentum heading into a Week 18 clash with the Seahawks.

Humphrey caught both his targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 18-10 win over the Panthers.

The Saints' passing tree was very narrow in this one, as only Marquez Callaway and Alvin Kamara saw more targets or had more production than Humphrey. It was a disappointing performance for the 23-year-old after he set a career high with 70 yards last week, but he'll get one more chance in the regular season to make a splash as New Orleans faces Atlanta in Week 18 with a possible wild-card berth on the line.

Callaway caught six of 10 targets for 97 yards in Sunday's 18-10 win over the Panthers.

He very nearly topped 100 yards for the second time in the last three games, but Callaway had to content himself with being Taysom Hill's top option in the passing game. His developing chemistry with the QB -- Callaway has a 16-255-0 line on 24 targets over those three games -- bodes well for his chances of another big performance in Week 18 against the Falcons, as the Saints will be trying to claim a wild-card spot.

Sutton caught three of five targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 34-13 loss to the Chargers.

With Jerry Jeudy and Tim Patrick both unable to clear the COVID-19 protocols in time to suit up Sunday, Sutton was the Broncos' top wideout and put together his best yardage total since Week 7. The team's passing game could be at full strength, including the return of Teddy Bridgewater (concussion), in Week 18 against Kansas City however, which would likely limit Sutton's upside.

Cole caught two of five targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to Tampa Bay.

Cole has't caught more than two passes or reached 30 yards in a game since Week 9. Even with the Jets banged up at wide receiver around him, Cole won't be an advisable fantasy option in Week 18 against the Bills.

Collins had two receptions (five targets) for 35 yards in Sunday's 23-7 loss to San Francisco.

Brandin Cooks drew the majority of Davis Mills' attention, leaving scraps for Collins and the rest of the Texans' thin receiving corps. The 2021 third-round pick remained second in the wide receiver pecking order, finishing third in targets behind Cooks (11) and Rex Burkhead (six). Collins doesn't receive enough volume in this offense to warrant attention from fantasy managers heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Titans.

Goodwin was targeted twice but posted no statistics in the Bears' 29-3 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Goodwin has caught just two passes over the last three games, and he'll likely have very few opportunities to produce in Week 18 against the Vikings.

Byrd caught a 23-yard pass in the Bears' 29-3 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Byrd has caught a single pass in each of the last two games, which coincided with the return of Allen Robinson in Week 16. Although Byrd had four solid weeks of production while Robinson was out, Byrd's role is likely set to remain minor in Week 18 against the Vikings.

Jefferson caught four passes for 63 yards on five targets against Baltimore on Sunday.

Jefferson's five targets were somewhat disappointing on a day where Matthew Stafford threw 35 pass attempts, but the second-year wideout made up for it with strong efficiency, as he regularly does. While the structure of the Rams passing game and Cooper Kupp's dominance within it only leaves so much room for Jefferson's single-game upside, it's also true that the Rams passing game can only go so far without involving Jefferson. He should project reasonably well in any game that Stafford does. The Rams face the 49ers in Week 18.

Aiyuk corralled four of six targets for 94 yards in Sunday's 23-7 win over the Texans.

Aiyuk collected 94 of rookie Trey Lance's 249 passing yards, most of which came in the second half of the contest. Deebo Samuel and Elijah Mitchell (knee) were the recipients of Lance's two touchdown throws, but Aiyuk set up both scores with big chunk plays between the 20s. The rookie quarterback was inconsistent at times, but he eventually got the ball into most of his playmakers' hands. Jimmy Garoppolo (thumb) is considered questionable for the team's Week 18 finale against the Rams, but Aiyuk will retain modest fantasy value with either of San Francisco's potential starting quarterbacks.
