  • Scott Miller WR | CHI

    Buccaneers' Scotty Miller: Not targeted in loss

    Miller didn't receive a target in Monday's 27-24 loss to the Rams.

    Miller logged just 15 snaps on offense as he continues to fall out of favor in the Buccaneers' offense following the signing of Antonio Brown. Over three games with Brown on board, Miller has caught just two passes for 14 yards on four targets. The 23-year-old had some splash games before Brown entered the picture, so fantasy managers should keep him in mind in case off-field issues affect Brown's availability this season.

  • Terry McLaurin WR | WAS

    Football Team's Terry McLaurin: Upgrades to limited activity

    McLaurin (ankle) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice, Kyle Stackpole of Washington's official site reports.

    After going down as a non-participant on Monday's estimated practice report, McLaurin was able to take his activity up a notch Tuesday. Washington hasn't yet suggested that McLaurin's ankle injury is anything overly worrisome, so the expectation is that he'll be ready to serve as the Football Team's top option in the passing game Thursday in Dallas.

  • Jalen Guyton WR | LV

    Chargers' Jalen Guyton: Records one reception

    Guyton caught his lone target for four yards in Sunday's 34-28 win against the Jets.

    Coming off last week's season high in receptions, Guyton did not receive the same amount of opportunities in this matchup against the Jets. His limited opportunities were due to Keenan Allen's incredible performance, as Allen tied the franchise record for most receptions in a single game. Sunday's matchup against the Bills might make it difficult to give the 23-year-old Guyton more chances to be involved.

  • Mecole Hardman WR | BUF

    Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Minimal production in return from COVID list

    Hardman hauled in his lone target for 16 yards in Sunday's game versus the Raiders.

    Hardman notably saw a season-low 27 percent of the team's offensive snaps in Sunday's contest, though that may be the result of him being freshly off the COVID-19 list and not quite up to speed. Even if that's the case, the expected return of Sammy Watkins in Week 12 will limit his upside from a fantasy standpoint moving forward. At this point, he's likely spottily owned in many redraft formats, while his primary value lies as a stash in dynasty leagues.

  • Tyron Johnson WR | DAL

    Chargers' Tyron Johnson: Long reception in win

    Johnson caught his lone target for 54 yards in Sunday's 34-28 win against the Jets.

    Johnson's longest reception of the season also doubled as the longest catch by any Charger on Sunday. Quarterback Justin Herbert may not look to Johnson that frequently, but he has only missed one target this season. The depth wideout is not utilized that much in the offense, and as such, isn't seen as a relevant option in fantasy leagues.

  • Chiefs' Demarcus Robinson: Posts season-high reception count

    Robinson posted season-high marks for receptions (six) and targets (eight) Sunday versus the Raiders.

    Robinson also claimed an 81 percent snap count for the week and played 63 total offensive snaps, his second-highest total of 2020. It may partially be a result of Mecole Hardman being fresh off the COVID list and Sammy Watkins (hamstring/calf) still not quite back from his injury, so there's reason to believe that Robinson's snap share will diminish in the coming weeks.

  • Van Jefferson WR | WAS

    Rams' Van Jefferson: Scores first career touchdown

    Jefferson caught his only target for a seven-yard touchdown during Monday's 27-24 win over Tampa Bay. He only played four offensive snaps.

    The rookie has played sparingly to this point of the season and has just six receptions for 67 yards and the lone score over the past five games. However, he's only been targeted six times during the noted span, so Jefferson's efficiency is notable. Additionally, he's reinforced all the positive skills that have been attributed to him since being selected in Round 2 of the 2020 NFL Draft. While Jefferson's depth role has him off the fantasy radar in most seasonal settings for now, he's showing all the signs of developing into a quality receiver for years to come.

  • Josh Reynolds WR | NYJ

    Rams' Josh Reynolds: Garners six more targets in win

    Reynolds caught three of six targets for 32 yards during Monday's 27-24 win over Tampa Bay.

    The fourth-year receiver is up to a respectable 19 receptions, 222 yards and a touchdown on 33 targets over the past four weeks. While he didn't deliver a big fantasy showing Monday, Reynolds remained involved and actually played the second most offensive snaps (65 of 72) among Los Angeles wide receivers. His 18-yard catch in the third quarter also set up the Rams' touchdown to pull ahead 24-17. Additionally, quarterback Jared Goff looked his way twice more on deep routes following the TD. All said, Reynolds appears locked into a prominent role, but he's probably one of the least talented options in the Los Angeles passing attack. It's worth noting that Goff looked rookie Van Jefferson's way for a touchdown in the second quarter to tie the game at 14-14.

  • Willie Snead WR | MIA

    Ravens' Willie Snead: Stays busy Sunday

    Snead had three catches for 23 yards on seven targets against the Titans.

    Snead's production was pedestrian Sunday, but his target volume was notable. Since the bye, Snead has had seven targets in three of four games, averaging 4.3 catches for 57.5 yards per game in that span. He is second on the team in targets behind only Mark Andrews over that period. Snead will face the Steelers on Thursday.

  • Marquise Brown WR | PHI

    Ravens' Marquise Brown: Continues downward trajectory

    Brown had no catches on three targets Sunday against the Titans.

    Brown's tough second season reached a new low Sunday as he was held without a catch for the first time in 2020. He drew just three targets on Lamar Jackson's 29 dropbacks while Mark Andrews, Willie Snead and Dez Bryant all saw more looks. Brown has just two touchdowns all season and hasn't had more than 50 yards in four games since the bye. He'll face the tough Steelers secondary on Thanksgiving.
