Raymond hauled in his only target for a 40-yard touchdown in Week 13 against the Colts.

Raymond was held without a catch or target through 57 minutes but came up with the game-clinching touchdown. With just over three minutes remaining in the contest, Raymond beat safety Rolan Milligan deep to put the Titans' up two scores. Though he has only six targets and five receptions on the season, Raymond has established himself as a deep threat by connecting with Ryan Tannehill for big gains of 52 and 40 yards.

Brown hauled in three of his four targets for 45 yards in the team's Week 13 win over the Colts.

Brown tied for the team lead with four targets, though Ryan Tannehill attempted only 22 passes in the contest. As a result, in spite of efficient work, Brown put up a disappointing stat line. Even so, he provided big plays for the offense, with all of his catches going for 13 or more yards. Despite inconsistent usage and quarterback play early in the season, Brown has flashed big-play potential by averaging 18.4 yards per reception to go along with four touchdowns through 12 games. Though volume may be hard to come by, Brown will be in another positive matchup in Week 14 as the Titans take on the Raiders.

Hopkins recorded five catches (eight targets) for 64 yards in Sunday's 28-22 win over New England. He also threw for a six-yard touchdown pass on a trick play.

Hopkins drew a tough matchup against Stephon Gilmore -- widely considered the best man-to-man corner in the game -- so the pedestrian stat line (by his standards) shouldn't come as a huge surprise. The 27-year-old still led all Houston receivers with 64 yards in a contest where Deshaun Watson spread the ball out to eight different targets. The star wideout did contribute a score in an unconventional way, throwing his first career touchdown pass to quarterback Deshaun Watson on a gadget play. Hopkins is having a down year (86 receptions, 903 yards and six touchdowns) when factoring in his price tag on draft day, and things won't get any easier next week against Denver's fifth-ranked pass defense (207.5 passing yards allowed per game).

Perriman brought in five of six targets for 87 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-11 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.

In a game that unfolded quite a bit differently than had been envisioned, Perriman fittingly led a pass-catching corps normally spearheaded by either Mike Evans or Chris Godwin. The receptions, receiving yardage and targets were all season highs for the speedster, who now has recorded at least one reception in five straight games. That's actually a significant improvement over Perriman's first five contests, during which he posted just three receptions (on 16 targets) for 16 yards. Perriman will look to build on Sunday's unexpected numbers versus the Colts in Week 14.

Woods hauled in 13 of his 19 targets for 172 yards in the team's Week 13 win over the Cardinals.

Woods had a career day, posting his highest target, reception and yardage total in a single game. The only thing missing from his performance was a trip to the end zone, though he still turned in two massive receptions of 49 and 25 yards. Though he had inconsistent involvement in the offense early in the season, Woods now has at least nine targets in each of his past three games. He'll look to remain involved as the team takes on Seattle in Week 14.

Kupp hauled in all six of his targets for 65 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 13 win over the Cardinals.

Kupp was out-targeted by both Robert Woods and Tyler Higbee, but he managed a strong performance due to his efficiency. His performance was highlighted by a 10-yard touchdown, which forced him to tightrope on the sideline to get both feet inbounds. It was a bounce-back performance for Kupp, who had failed to top 55 yards or find the end zone in each of his last three contests. Kupp will take on the Seahawks in Week 14 and look to replicate his Week 5 performance, when he recorded nine receptions, 121 yards and a touchdown.

Hill caught five of eight targets for 55 yards and lost four yards on his only carry in Sunday's 40-9 rout of the Raiders.

The Chiefs' passing game was surprisingly muted despite the final score, as windy conditions at Arrowhead Stadium prevented Patrick Mahomes from stretching the field as usual. Hill's longest grab went for only 17 yards, a somewhat disappointing showing for the speedster considering he had eight catches of 20-plus yards in the five games prior to straining his hamstring in Week 11. Hill could struggle to get open deep again next week in a road matchup against the Patriots' league-leading defense.

Berrios caught one of two targets for five yards in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Bengals.

The incomplete pass thrown Berrios' way would have been a chunk play had it not clanked off his hands. Berrios needs to bring in balls like that if he wants to climb the depth chart on offense and not turn into a career special teams guy.

Sutton caught four of five targets for 74 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Chargers.

Sutton made a tremendous impact early in the game, connecting with Drew Lock for a pair of touchdowns to put his team ahead in the first quarter. The highlight of the day came on the first of the two, when he beat his defender to the outside and made the grab while diving into the end zone. Those who feared for Sutton's fantasy value with Lock at quarterback can breathe a sigh of relief for now, as the duo will enjoy a favorable matchup against the Texans next week.

Smith caught two of three targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Bengals.

Smith had a limited impact as usual in his role as a depth receiver. There's still time for the 23-year-old undrafted free agent out of Limestone College to gain fantasy relevance as his career unfolds, but Smith can be ignored in all formats at this stage.
