Meyers (thigh) brought in all eight targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' 50-10 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

Meyers paced the Patriots in receptions while checking in just behind Kendrick Bourne in receiving yardage. The third-year pro posted his best catch total since Week 4 while taking advantage of the absences of both Nelson Agholor (concussion) and N'Keal Harry (coach's decision), and his four-yard scoring grab just before halftime was only his second touchdown of the campaign. Meyers will have one final regular-season tune-up for the playoffs when he tangles with the Dolphins in Week 18.

Cooks (illness) hauled in seven of 11 targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-7 loss to San Francisco.

Cooks returned from a one-game absence on the reserve/COVID-19 list, staying hot after posting two strong fantasy showings in his previous two contests. The veteran accounted for the majority of the receiving unit's statistics, as only one other wideout (Nico Collins) finished with more than one reception. Davis Mills has struggled at times this year, but he has clearly made an effort to get the ball into Cooks' hands, which is what the receiver's fantasy managers like to see heading into the season finale against the Titans.

Cowboys team owner Jerry Jones said the team believes Gallup has a torn ACL, and he's scheduled to get an MRI on Monday to confirm the injury, Michael Gehlken of the Dallas Morning News reports.

A torn ACL would not only knock Gallup out for the remainder of this season, but it would also most likely sideline him for most or all of next season as well -- awful timing for the pending free agent. It's a tough break for Gallup, who suffered the injury while scoring a 21-yard touchdown in the second quarter. Cedrick Wilson -- who scored a touchdown in the fourth quarter -- will feature in three-receiver sets alongside CeeDee Lamb and Amari Cooper moving forward. Gallup finishes the season with 35 catches for 445 yards and two touchdowns.

Anderson caught both of his targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 18-10 loss to the Saints.

Anderson was decent in quarterback Sam Darnold's return last week, but Sunday's performance reverted to his prior standard with Darnold under center this season. The wideout was hardly involved as Carolina failed to threaten downfield, resulting in Anderson's seventh game with under 20 receiving yards this term. He'll strive to at least finish the campaign on a positive note in Week 18 versus the Buccaneers, when game flow might result in more opportunities to make plays.

Samuel had three receptions on six targets for 63 yards and a touchdown Sunday, adding 19 more yards on seven carries in a 23-7 win over Houston.

Samuel was used almost exclusively as a running back in the first half, but Houston's defense was prepared every time he lined up in the backfield. The dual-threat playmaker was able to finally break free for a 45-yard touchdown on a missile from Trey Lance in the fourth quarter. The rookie quarterback missed on another potential long score when he didn't see that Samuel beat his defender down the field, so we got to see the highs and lows of having a raw talent like Lance under center. Jimmy Garoppolo's (thumb) status for next week's tilt against the Rams is currently unknown, but the star wideout has proven that he can produce with either signal caller this season. Potentially matching up against shutdown corner Jalen Ramsey may not be as big of a problem for Samuel as it would be for other teams' top wideouts, as he can line up all over the field and is routinely put in motion in Kyle Shanahan's offensive scheme.

Renfrow recorded seven receptions on nine targets for 76 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 23-20 win over the Colts.

Renfrow had seen a significant decline in volume across his last two games, combining to record only eight targets. However, he bounced back in Sunday's win -- though he was still out-targeted by Zay Jones -- posting his seventh performance with at least seven receptions on the campaign. The highlight came on an 11-yard touchdown reception early in the fourth quarter, though it also appeared that he had a 48-yard touchdown later in the game that was ultimately overturned on review. Renfrow also surpassed 1,000 receiving yards for the season with the effort, and he should maintain a key role as the Raiders look to sneak into the playoffs with a Week 18 win over the Chargers.

Beasley secured two of six targets for 22 yards in the Bills' 29-15 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

The veteran possession man made his return after a one-game stay on the reserve/COVID-19 list, but even with Emmanuel Sanders (knee) out of action, he couldn't make much of an impact. In fairness, Josh Allen was extremely inaccurate and threw for just 120 yards overall, so Beasley could see a boost in his numbers versus the vulnerable Jets secondary in Week 18.

Moore caught three of eight targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 18-10 loss to the Saints.

Moore led the Panthers in targets but couldn't get much going against a tough Saints defense. Most his yardage came on a 20-yard catch during the second half, but Moore followed that contribution with a drop shortly thereafter. Having racked up at least seven targets in every game this season, Moore figures to remain a focal point in Week 18's finale versus the Buccaneers. Although that matchup surely doesn't favor the Panthers, game flow might help Moore improve on Sunday's lackluster output.

Davis brought in all three targets for 40 yards in the Bills' 29-15 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

Davis saw an elevated role with Emmanuel Sanders (knee) out but couldn't parlay it into appreciable production. The speedster's reception total and receiving yardage were each second on the team to those of Stefon Diggs, but they were unlikely to put fantasy managers over the top in their championship games. Davis will have one more opportunity to tune up for the postseason in a Week 18 finale against the vulnerable Jets secondary.

Gage brought in three of five targets for 50 yards in the Falcons' 29-15 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

Gage co-led the Falcons in receptions on a very modest day for Atlanta's passing attack while checking in second in receiving yardage to Kyle Pitts. The veteran wideout now has at least 50 receiving yards in five of the last six games going into the Week 18 finale versus the Saints.
