  • Packers' Equanimeous St. Brown: Available Week 12

    St. Brown (knee) is listed as active Sunday against the Bears.

    A knee injury has made St. Brown a regular on Packers practice reports this season, but he's appeared in each of the last six contests under a variety of snap counts. His workload is difficult to project, but with all of Davante Adams, Allen Lazard, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Darrius Shepherd and Malik Taylor available Sunday, St. Brown may not surpass his average of one target per game in this one.

  • Hunter Renfrow WR | CAR

    Raiders' Hunter Renfrow: Team's top pass catcher Week 12

    Renfrow reeled in seven of nine targets for a team-high 73 receiving yards during Sunday's 43-6 loss to the Falcons. He also logged a six-yard punt return.

    Renfrow was Derek Carr's busiest pass catcher Sunday, out-targeting tight end Darren Waller by two. That's noteworthy given that Waller entered the game with 83 targets on the season, more than double the amount of Las Vegas' No. 2 option, Renfrow (41). With only one outing of more than 60 receiving yards on the year coming into Sunday, Renfrow had demonstrated a limited ceiling in fantasy. He has a chance at consecutive lucrative outings with a Week 13 matchup against the Jets' 30th-ranked pass defense approaching.

  • Packers' Marquez Valdes-Scantling: Suiting up Week 12

    Valdes-Scantling (Achilles) is active for Sunday's game versus the Bears.

    Valdes-Scantling appeared on the injury report as a limited participant Thursday and didn't practice at all Friday, the result of an Achilles concern. Despite the lack of reps to end the week, he'll be available to the Packers offense, but his workload remains to be seen. Davante Adams and Allen Lazard should serve as the team's top two wide receivers, with Valdes-Scantling, Equanimeous St. Brown (knee), Darrius Shepherd and Malik Taylor on hand for any reps that linger.

  • Jets' Jamison Crowder: Three catches as offense sputters

    Crowder caught three of five targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 20-3 loss to Miami.

    New York has emphasized pushing the ball downfield to Breshad Perriman and Denzel Mims on the outside rather than looking for Crowder in the slot in recent weeks, and that was the approach in this one, even with Sam Darnold (shoulder) back under center over Joe Flacco. Crowder caught at least seven passes in each of his first four games this season but hasn't surpassed three catches in any of his three appearances since. He'll look to get back on track when the Raiders come to town in Week 13.

  • Saints' Marquez Callaway: Injures knee Sunday

    Callaway will not return to Sunday's game against the Broncos due to a knee injury, Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football reports.

    Callaway limped off the field in the second quarter, and the Saints officially ruled him out shortly after halftime. He didn't have a target before exiting Sunday's contest. Tre'Quan Smith will continue to serve as New Orleans' third receiver behind Michael Thomas and Emmanuel Sanders.

  • Jets' Breshad Perriman: Leading receiver as Darnold returns

    Perriman caught four of eight targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 20-3 loss to Miami.

    Perriman set up an opening-drive field goal with a 37-yard catch from returning starting quarterback Sam Darnold (shoulder), but that play represented the highlight of the afternoon for New York's league-worst offense. Still, Perriman led the team in receiving yards and tied Denzel Mims for the team lead in catches and targets. After battling some early-season injuries, Perriman has established himself as New York's top receiving option with 234 yards and three touchdowns over the past three games. He'll look to stay hot in Week 13 against a Raiders team that just got embarrassed 43-6 in Atlanta.

  • Tee Higgins WR | CIN

    Bengals' Tee Higgins: Scores fifth touchdown

    Higgins caught all five of his targets for 44 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 19-17 loss to the Giants.

    Higgins led the team in receptions and receiving yards while finishing second in targets. He made a one-yard touchdown grab late in the fourth quarter to keep his team in the game, giving him three scores in his last five games and five for the season. Higgins' ability to produce with Brandon Allen at quarterback is a positive sign for his fantasy outlook, but the duo will face a tough challenge next Sunday against a talented Dolphins defense.

  • Cardinals' Andy Isabella: Doesn't do much with extra looks

    Isabella caught four of six targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to New England.

    Isabella ranked second behind DeAndre Hopkins in catches, yards and targets as Kyler Murray threw for just 170 yards while being held without a passing touchdown for the first time all season. The 2019 second-round pick played a larger role with Larry Fitzgerald (illness) unavailable, and Isabella should continue to see some extra attention from Murray against the Rams in Week 13 with Fitzgerald unlikely to come off the COVID-19 list in time to return.

  • Willie Snead WR | MIA

    Ravens' Willie Snead: Gets positive COVID-19 diagnosis

    Snead tested positive for COVID-19 on Sunday, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

    Snead is the most recent Raven to suffer such a fate, ruling him out for Tuesday's game at Pittsburgh. Assuming that contest is played, Baltimore's receiving corps has been whittled down to Marquise Brown, Devin Duvernay, Dez Bryant, Miles Boykin and James Proche.

  • Colts' Michael Pittman: Can't deliver despite opportunity

    Pittman recorded two receptions on nine targets for 28 yards in Week 12 against the Titans.

    Pittman was the most-targeted wideout for the Colts, but he was uncharacteristically inefficient. Entering the Week 12 contest, Pittman had broken out across his last two games by converting 11 targets into 10 receptions, 167 yards and a touchdown. The entire Indianapolis offense was poor against the Titans, however, and Pittman will have the chance to bounce back in a positive matchup in Week 13 against the Texans.
