Moore caught five of eight targets for 67 yards in Sunday's 26-20 loss to Cleveland.

Moore was Carolina's third-leading receiver behind Curtis Samuel (80 yards) and Ian Thomas (77 yards), though the team was unable to score a receiving touchdown in this one. Quarterback Cam Newton came into this contest riding an 11-game streak with multiple passing scores, so the rookie wide receiver out of Maryland will have a nice opportunity to build on his season total of two touchdowns when the Panthers host an exploitable Saints secondary in Week 15.

Samuel caught four of eight targets for a team-leading 80 yards in Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Browns.

Samuel's coming into his own late in his second season, with 168 receiving yards over the past two weeks. While he doesn't have a touchdown over this strong recent stretch, Samuel does have six total scores (four receiving, two rushing) this season. Deep-league owners could do much worse than Samuel with Carolina set to host the Saints in Week 15.

Adams caught seven of 11 targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-20 win over Atlanta.

Adams did most of his damage in the first half, with six receptions for 61 yards and his 12th touchdown of the season as the Packers built a 24-point lead early in the second half. The 25-year-old has been a model of consistency regardless of any of the Packers' offensive struggles, and he's exceeded 80 receiving yards or scored a touchdown in every game this season. Adams has 93 catches for 1,196 yards through 13 games, though a more difficult matchup awaits against the stingy Bears defense in Week 15.

Humphries brought in four of eight targets for 42 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-14 loss to the Saints on Sunday. He also returned one punt for 10 yards.

Humphries co-led the team in receptions on the afternoon, but he was unable to replicate some of the downfield success he'd enjoyed in recent games. The fourth-year receiver continues to enjoy a steady role in the passing game, however, as he now has six or more targets in six of his last eight games. Humphries will look to boost his numbers back up against the Ravens in Week 15.

Hopkins caught four of 10 targets for 36 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Colts.

Hopkins redeemed his season-worst yardage total by reeling in a seven-yard touchdown late in the fourth quarter to bring the Texans within three. The 26-year-old had not failed to reach 50 yards in any prior game this year, but he was happy to score for the first time in three contests. He has a much more appealing matchup on the road Week 15 against the Jets.

Thomas brought in 11 of his 13 targets for 98 yards in the Saints' 28-14 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Thomas was back to playing the alpha dog of the Saints passing attack, posting a double-digit catch total for the first time since Week 9. The third-year wideout dominated the short-to-medium-passing window throughout the contest, logging his third-highest target total of the season in the process. Thomas has the potential to generate a stat line the caliber of Sunday's in any given week, and he'll look to build on the performance versus the vulnerable Panthers secondary in a Week 15 divisional matchup.

Evans brought in four of his six targets for 86 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-14 loss to the Saints on Sunday.

Evans hauled in his game-long 36-yard reception early in the first quarter, and he was quiet for a good portion of the game thereafter. However, he still finished tops on the team in receiving yards and drew even with Adam Humphries and Jacquizz Rodgers for most receptions. Evans has been productive on the latter front in particular of late, as he's amassed between Sunday's 86 yards and 120 yards in three of his past four contests. Now just 115 yards away from eclipsing his career high of 1,321, Evans will look to continue building towards that total against the Ravens in Week 15.

Shepard caught two of six targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-16 win over the Redskins.

Shepard led his team in targets with Odell Beckham sidelined by a quadriceps injury, but three other Giants finished with more receiving yards. Beckham will likely return against the Titans in Week 15, bumping Shepard back down to the No. 2 wide receiver role in New York.

Hill was able to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens after exiting the contest due to a heel injury.

Great news for the Chiefs, who can ill-afford another injury at wideout, with Sammy Watkins dealing with a foot injury.

Powell (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

Powell will miss his third straight game. He likely would not have been a factor in the offense had he been active, as he is buried on the depth chart.
