Andy Isabella WR | SF
Cardinals' Andy Isabella: Another absence Sunday
Isabella (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Eagles.
The Cardinals' receiving corps otherwise is intact, so Isabella's services aren't needed for a second straight contest. Beyond the top trio of DeAndre Hopkins, Christian Kirk and Larry Fitzgerald, KeeSean Johnson and (to a lesser extent) Trent Sherfield are the options available at wide receiver.

Jamison Crowder WR | WAS
Jets' Jamison Crowder: Active for Sunday's game
Crowder (calf) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Rams.
With Crowder active, Denzel Mims (personal) back in action and Breshad Perriman also on hand, the Jets will at least have their top three wide receivers available Sunday, as the 0-13 team looks for its first win of the season. While playing at less than 100 percent in last week's loss to the Seahawks, Crowder's production dipped, as he finished with just two catches (on four targets) for a season-low seven yards. He'll look to rebound after logging back-to-back limited practices Thursday and Friday, but the fact that Crowder is the only player on his team with a Week 15 injury designation is an indication that he's still working through his calf issues.

Collin Johnson WR | LV
Jaguars' Collin Johnson: Exits with hamstring injury
Johnson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens due to a hamstring injury, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
The 23-year-old was responsible for Jacksonville's only catch of the first quarter with an eight-yard reception, but he was forced to exit due to the injury. Chris Conley will see increased work as the team's No. 4 wideout if Johnson cannot retake the field.

Mack Hollins WR | NE
Dolphins' Mack Hollins: Likely to get more work Sunday
Hollins could be in line for an expanded role in Miami's passing attack Sunday against the Patriots with DeVante Parker (hamstring), Jakeem Grant (hamstring) and Mike Gesicki (shoulder) all inactive for the contest, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.
In addition to the three inactive pass catchers, the Dolphins remain without the services of another starting wideout in Preston Williams (foot), who's on injured reserve. Those absences leave rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa with few options at his disposal, but Hollins and Lynn Bowden probably rank as the most intriguing for fantasy purposes. When Parker, Grant and Gesicki all exited with their respective injuries in the Dolphins' Week 14 loss to the Chiefs, it was Hollins (five receptions for 66 yards on nine targets, 48 percent offensive snap share) and Bowden (seven receptions for 82 yards on nine targets, 71 percent) who stepped up most prominently.

Lynn Bowden Jr. WR | NO
Dolphins' Lynn Bowden: Could headline Week 15 WR corps
Bowden is in line to see more opportunities Sunday against the Patriots with fellow receivers DeVante Parker (hamstring) and Jakeem Grant (hamstring) both inactive for the contest, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.
Tight end Mike Gesicki (shoulder) is also out, so the Dolphins will need to turn to the likes of Bowden, Mack Hollins, Antonio Callaway, Malcolm Perry and Isaiah Ford to help out in the team's passing game. In last week's loss to Kansas City, Bowden logged a career-high seven catches (on nine targets) for 82 yards.

Penny Hart WR | ATL
Seahawks' Penny Hart: Healthy scratch Sunday
Hart (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game versus the Football Team.
Hart logged a career-high 27 snaps on offense last week, adding 22 yards from scrimmage on two touches. His absence from the lineup corresponds with tailback Rashaad Penny's (knee) return to action. The Seahawks will roll with four wide receivers: DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, David Moore and Freddie Swain.
-
Justin Watson WR | KC
Buccaneers' Justin Watson: Healthy scratch for Week 15
Watson (coach's decision) is listed as inactive for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
Watson kicked off the year with a combined seven receptions for 94 yards over three appearances between Weeks 1 and 4. Since that point, however, the 24-year-old has failed to post a single catch. When he's active over the latter half of the season, Watson's involvement has come primarily via special teams. The Penn product is averaging 17.8 snaps per game in that department since Week 8, compared to 13 total offensive snaps over the same span.

Equanimeous St. Brown WR | SF
Packers' Equanimeous St. Brown: Not targeted in Week 15
St. Brown was not targeted in Saturday's victory over the Panthers.
St. Brown overcame a knee injury and took the field Saturday, but he played only a bit role in Week 15, finishing a distant fourth among Packers wideouts with 11 snaps. The Packers' receiving corps is at full strength, so in Week 16 St. Brown will remain at-best the fourth option in what is mainly a three-receiver offense.
-
DeVante Parker WR | PHI
Dolphins' DeVante Parker: Won't play Sunday
Parker (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
With tight end Mike Gesicki (shoulder) and Jakeem Grant (hamstring) also inactive for Sunday's contest, the Dolphins will turn to Lynn Bowden and Mack Hollins to head their Week 15 wide receiving corps, while Adam Shaheen and Durham Smythe are in line to handle added tight end snaps.
