  • Vyncint Smith WR | IND

    Jets' Vyncint Smith: Ends 2019 with 17 catches

    Smith caught three of four targets for 36 yards and added a 20-yard run in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Bills.

    Smith finishes the season with 17 catches for 225 yards as well as 52 yards and a touchdown on three rushing attempts. The 23-year-old receiver has also contributed as a return man on special teams and carries a cap his of just $660,000 in 2020, so the Jets will likely retain Smith for depth.

  • Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Exits Sunday's game

    Sutton was forced out of Sunday's game against the Raiders with a possible concussion, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Prior to his exit, Sutton hauled in four of his eight targets for 52 yards. In his absence, DaeSean Hamilton and Tim Patrick are next up for the Broncos' wideout targets.

  • Saints' Michael Thomas: Season-low stat line in blowout win

    Thomas corralled four of nine targets for 37 yards in the Saints' 42-10 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    After battling a hand injury all week, Thomas suited up for the Saints' final regular-season matchup, though his performance was a let-down for fantasy owners. He produced his lowest receiving total of the season while snagging his fewest passes of the year in the blowout victory. Despite the poor Week 17 showing, Thomas will carry a 149/1,725/9 line into the playoffs.

  • Robbie Chosen WR | WAS

    Jets' Robby Anderson: Third straight 700-yard season

    Anderson (calf) caught three of seven targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over Buffalo.

    Anderson didn't make much of an impact in what may have been his final game with the Jets, as the 26-year-old speedster will be a free agent this offseason. Four of Anderson's five touchdowns and two of his three 100-yard games came in the final seven weeks, and he finishes with 52 catches for 779 yards and five touchdowns overall. With at least 50 catches, 752 yards and five touchdowns in each of the last three seasons, Anderson has established himself as an impactful player, but his skill set is too one-dimensional to be a true No. 1 receiver. The deep threat's 2020 value will depend on where he lands in free agency.

  • DeVante Parker WR | PHI

    Dolphins' DeVante Parker: Excellent finish to season

    Parker secured eight of 11 targets for 137 yards in the Dolphins' 27-24 win over the Patriots on Sunday.

    Parker finished his career-best season in fitting fashion, leading the team in receptions, receiving yardage and targets while posting his second straight 100-yard effort in the process. Parker came alive over the last seven games of the campaign, a possible career-changing stretch for the previously disappointing 2015 first-round pick. Sunday's tally, which included key catches on the Dolphins' game-winning drive in the fourth quarter, pushed Parker's final 2019 line to 72-1,202-9, with all three components career bests.

  • Jets' Jamison Crowder: Scores six times in last nine games

    Crowder caught eight of 10 targets for 66 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 13-6 win over Buffalo.

    Crowder scored the game's only touchdown from one yard out early in the fourth quarter. It was his sixth touchdown of the season, with all of that scoring coming in the final nine weeks. He dressed for all 16 games after signing a three-year deal with the Jets this past offseason, finishing with a career-high 78 catches despite missing starting quarterback Sam Darnold for three games. The slot receiver narrowly missed setting new personal bests in receiving yards (833) and touchdowns, as he had 847 yards and seven touchdowns with the Redskins back in 2016. If New York is able to upgrade on the outside in the offseason, that should open up even more room for Crowder to wreak havoc out of the slot.

  • Keenan Allen WR | SF

    Chargers' Keenan Allen: Picks up 82 yards, score

    Allen caught nine of 10 targets for 82 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-21 loss to Kansas City.

    Allen put the Chargers on the board early in the second quarter, skying for a Philip Rivers loft pass and tapping his toes down inbounds as he went to the ground. Despite a disappointing all-around season for Allen, he managed to snag at least five passes in seven consecutive games to close the season and set a new career high with 104 receptions on the campaign. He now heads into an intriguing offseason, as the Chargers get set to play in a new stadium in 2020, potentially without Rivers in tow.

  • Mecole Hardman WR | BUF

    Chiefs' Mecole Hardman: Rips huge return for score

    Hardman had a 30-yard reception on his lone target during Sunday's 31-21 win over the Chargers. He also returned two kicks for 117 yards and a touchdown and three punts for 21 yards.

    The Chiefs were down early in the second half when Hardman took the kickoff and high-stepped up the sideline before cutting back for a 104-yard kick return for a touchdown, the first return touchdown of his career. Hardman has caught multiple passes in just one game since Week 8, but he boasts an unreal 20.7 yards-per-reception average this season. After the Chief's first-round bye, they will take on the Patriots, Texans or Bills. In two games against New England and Houston this season, Hardman caught five total passes for 93 yards and a touchdown.

  • Buccaneers' Breshad Perriman: Spectacular finish to season

    Perriman secured five of eight targets 134 yards and a touchdown in the Buccaneers' 28-22 overtime loss to the Falcons on Sunday.

    Perriman once again paced the team in receptions, receiving yards and targets, putting together his third consecutive 100-yard effort to close out the campaign. The previously underwhelming wideout earned high praise from coach Bruce Arians in his postgame press conference, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports, with the Buccaneers' head man stating that Perriman played like a No. 1 receiver down the stretch. The 26-year-old is slated to head into unrestricted free agency in March, but given his strong finish, the Buccaneers could certainly be interested in bringing him back into the fold.

  • Tyreek Hill WR | MIA

    Chiefs' Tyreek Hill: Goes deep against Chargers

    Hill caught four of five targets for 61 yards during Sunday's 31-21 win over the Chargers.

    Hill was quiet for the bulk of Sunday's game, when, with the Chiefs nursing a three-point lead late in the fourth quarter, he got behind the Chargers' secondary for a 47-yard completion to set up the game-sealing touchdown. The win, coupled with a Patriots loss, means the Chiefs will be the AFC's No. 2 seed and play either New England, the Texans or the Bills in two weeks. In two games against New England and Houston this season, Hill has 11 total receptions for 147 yards and two touchdowns.
