Samuel ran for 17 yards on three carries and caught two of four targets for 25 receiving yards during Sunday's 40-20 loss to Atlanta.

The Ohio State product has been a boom-bust option throughout 2019, providing start-worthy statistical production one week and saddling fantasy GMs with a "bust" in his next outing. Samuel's style of play does not translate particularly well to PPR formats, as he owns a putrid 50.6 percent catch rate and has only reached five receptions in a game two times all year. His big-play potential and touchdown production otherwise make him a high-ceiling fantasy asset, though his effectiveness may be stifled in Week 15 with the Panthers taking on a Seattle defense that has held opponents to 9.9 yards per completion and four total passing touchdowns over its past three outings.

Boyd caught five of six targets for 75 yards during Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Browns.

Boyd led the team in catches and receiving yards while finishing behind only Alex Erickson in targets. He recorded a long gain of 21 yards and has now surpassed 60 receiving yards in four of his last six games. Boyd is on pace for his second career 1,000-yard season and will look to inch closer to the milestone next Sunday against the Patriots.

McLaurin secured four of seven targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in the Redskins' 20-15 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

McLaurin led the Redskins in receiving yardage with his modest total, and he found the end zone for the first time since Week 6 against the Dolphins with an acrobatic one-handed grab in tight coverage. Despite dealing with plenty of instability and inexperience at the quarterback position, McLaurin has at least Sunday's 57 receiving yards in three of the last four contests, and his production against the Packers pushed him over the 700-yard mark for the campaign. McLaurin will look to build on Sunday's effort in a Week 15 divisional battle versus the Eagles.

Ford caught six of nine targets for 92 yards in Sunday's 22-21 loss to the Jets.

Ford led the team in targets, catches and receiving yards, taking over as Ryan Fitzpatrick's favorite target after DeVante Parker exited with a concussion. With a matchup against the vulnerable Giants secondary Week 15, Ford could turn into an intriguing streaming option if Parker sits out.

Beckham caught two of five targets for 39 yards during Sunday's 27-19 win over the Bengals.

Beckham finished second on the team in targets and made a couple of nice gains, but he otherwise struggled to connect with Baker Mayfield yet again. It was reported during the week that he's been playing through a sports hernia, adding yet another dimension to what has been an underwhelming season. Beckham has caught just five of 11 targets for 68 yards combined over his last two games and will look to get back on track next Sunday in a favorable matchup against the Cardinals.

Adams brought in four of six targets for 41 yards in the Packers' 20-15 win over the Redskins on Sunday.

Adams checked in second in receptions and third in receiving yardage for the Packers on the afternoon, but on a day when Aaron Rodgers threw for less than 200 yards, that didn't amount to much. The star wideout has now failed to hit the 100-yard mark in three consecutive contests, but he's partly made up for modest yardage tallies over that span with three touchdown grabs. He'll look to bounce back in a divisional face-off with the Bears in Week 15.

Moore caught four of six targets for 81 receiving yards during Sunday's 40-20 loss to the Falcons.

Moore has been one of the surest stocks in fantasy football throughout the latter half of 2019, averaging 99.7 receiving yards per game, reaching the end zone three times and catching at least six passes in every game since Week 9. The upcoming matchup against Seattle is desirable in that the Seahawks entered Week 14 as a bottom-five defense with 269.3 passing yards allowed per game. However, Seattle's defense also is tied for sixth best in the NFL with just 1.2 passing touchdowns surrendered per game. Last Monday against Minnesota, Seattle's defense was able to hold the entire Vikings receiving corps to 111 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown.

Pascal caught five of nine targets for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-35 loss to Tampa Bay.

Pascal has stepped up with T.Y. Hilton (calf) sidelined. After setting a new career high with 109 receiving yards last week, Pascal pulled down his fifth touchdown of the season from 12 yards out in the third quarter. As long as Hilton remains out, Pascal is an enticing plug-in option at the wide receiver position.

Sutton caught five of seven targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 38-24 win over Houston.

Sutton was surprisingly quiet on a day that saw rookie quarterback Drew Lock throw for over 300 yards and three touchdowns. On the bright side, Sutton was the only Denver player to see more than four targets, and it looks like Lock has the skills to get the ball to his No. 1 wide receiver consistently. Roll Sutton out with confidence against the Chiefs in Week 15.

Diggs hauled in six of his nine targets for 92 yards in the team's Week 14 win over the Lions.

Diggs logged his second consecutive game with nine targets, hogging 31 percent of the team's total catchable passes. In addition to the volume, he recorded the game's longest play from scrimmage on a 44-yard reception just before halftime. This performance continued Diggs' inconsistent results, as he's now surpassed 90 receiving yards in two of his last five games. In the remaining three contests, he's combined to muster just 78 yards. More volatility in Diggs' performance could be in order if Adam Thielen (hamstring) is able to return against the Chargers in Week 15.
