  • Cardinals' Andy Isabella: No stats Sunday

    Isabella was targeted once but didn't catch it during Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Rams.

    After hauling in the first six targets of his career, Isabella has been quelled at every turn, recording one six-yard catch on his ensuing five targets. He still boasts a ridiculous 25.7 YPC and 16.4 YPT, fueled primarily by an 88-yard TD in Week 9 and a 55-yard connection with Kyler Murray one game later. Isabella's potential to blow up in any given contest is evident, but those deep shots haven't been hitting for the Cardinals over the past two games.

  • Damiere Byrd WR | BUF

    Cardinals' Damiere Byrd: Makes no impact Sunday

    Byrd didn't reel in any of his three targets during Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Rams.

    With KeeSean Johnson a surprise healthy scratch, Byrd led all Cardinals outside receivers in offensive snap share (38 percent), while Andy Isabella got 31 percent and Trent Sherfield eked out one snap (of 64) on offense. None of the trio recorded a catch, and aside from Byrd, only Isabella was targeted (one time). Because the experiment produced negligible results, it wouldn't be surprising if Johnson is back in the lineup Sunday against the Steelers, which could result in Byrd being included on the inactive list again, as he was Weeks 9 through 11.

  • Zay Jones WR | ARI

    Raiders' Zay Jones: Held to two catches in loss

    Jones caught two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 40-9 loss to the Chiefs.

    Jones saw no more than three targets for the fourth consecutive contest, despite what should have been a pass-happy game flow for the Raiders given they fell behind 21-0 heading into the half. Jones' snap count -- he saw action on 70 percent of the offensive plays in Week 13 -- figures to remain favorable in Week 14 against the Titans with Hunter Renfrow likely still sidelined by a rib injury, but the former hasn't flashed much upside to this point.

  • Robert Foster WR | NYG

    Bills' Robert Foster: Sees increased work

    Foster caught one of two targets for 20 yards during Thursday's win over the Cowboys.

    The 25-year-old was considered questionable due to a hamstring injury but ended up playing 28 offensive snaps, his highest snap total of the season. Foster could see an increased role going forward, since he and Isaiah McKenzie split snaps as the Bills' No. 3 wide receiver in Dallas, per Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo.

  • Bills' Isaiah McKenzie: Catches three passes

    McKenzie caught all three of his targets for 34 yards during Thursday's win over the Cowboys.

    The three catches tied a season high, while the 34 yards represents his highest total since Week 5. The 24-year-old actually saw a diminished share of snaps Thursday, as he and Robert Foster essentially rotated duties as the No. 3 wideout, per Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo. McKenzie's fantasy prospects were already minimal and splitting time with Foster only moves him further from fantasy relevance.

  • Dante Pettis WR | SF

    49ers' Dante Pettis: Likely out another week

    Pettis (knee) isn't expected to be available for Sunday's game at New Orleans, Matt Maiocco of NBC Sports Bay Area reports.

    Pettis suffered a left knee sprain at practice last week and was unable to play during Sunday's loss to the Ravens. The 24-year-old played a minimal offensive role in the weeks leading up to the injury, so his availability is unlikely to impact the offense.

  • Colts' Parris Campbell: Has shot to play Week 14

    Coach Frank Reich said it's "too soon to tell" if Campbell (hand) will be cleared for Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Joel A. Erickson of The Indianapolis Star reports.

    Campbell was given a similarly ambiguous status a week ago but was inactive for this past Sunday's loss to the Titans. If he's able to get healthy, the rookie second-rounder is slated for increased duties against the Bucs' 31st-ranked pass defense (282.8 yards allowed per game) since T.Y. Hilton (calf) is trending in the wrong direction.

  • Randall Cobb WR | NYJ

    Cowboys' Randall Cobb: Sits out practice Monday

    Cobb (illness) didn't participate in Monday's practice, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Cobb still has three days to get healthy before Thursday's matchup against the Bears, but it's concerning considering the 29-year-old leads the Cowboys with 254 receiving yards over the last three games.

  • Alex Erickson WR | HOU

    Bengals' Alex Erickson: Catches both targets

    Erickson caught both his targets for 21 yards and returned three punts for six yards during Sunday's win over the Jets.

    Erickson saw eight targets last week versus the Steelers but wasn't nearly as involved with Andy Dalton back at quarterback, despite playing a similar number of offensive snaps. The 27-year-old posted 14 catches for 234 yards in Weeks 7 and 8, but across the last four games he has only five receptions for 64 yards. Erickson's fantasy potential remains limited while Tyler Boyd and Auden Tate are healthy.

  • Amari Cooper WR | LV

    Cowboys' Amari Cooper: Full practice participant

    Cooper (knee) practiced without limitations Monday, David Helman of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Coach Jason Garrett expressed optimism that Cooper would be ready for Thursday's matchup against the Bears, and Monday's practice report confirms that notion. Cooper appeared back to normal in the Thanksgiving Day game against the Bills before injuring his knee in the fourth quarter, but additional tests found no structural damage. The fifth-year wide receiver will look to continue his trajectory after an eight-catch, 85-yard Week 13 performance in Thursday's tilt versus the Bears' ninth-ranked pass defense (222.2 passing yards allowed per game).
