Brooks wasn't targeted during Sunday's 37-14 defeat in Cincinnati.

Brooks has garnered offensive snaps in four straight games for the Cardinals, but his shares have ranged from five to 71 percent on a weekly basis. He rang in at 30 percent Sunday behind Michael Wilson (86 percent), Xavier Weaver (67 percent) and Marvin Harrison (33 percent). Because Harrison's status for the regular-season finale at the Rams is up in the air after emerging from Week 17 with a foot injury, Brooks could be poised for more snaps this weekend, but his output so far in Arizona (3-51-0 on six targets) isn't appealing for fantasy purposes.

Weaver recorded two catches (on three targets) for 24 yards during Sunday's 37-14 defeat at Cincinnati.

Weaver ranked second among Cardinals wide receivers in offensive snap share (67 percent) behind Michael Wilson (86 percent), which was somewhat aided by Marvin Harrison's (33 percent) early exit in the fourth quarter after he suffered what eventually was called a foot injury (as opposed to his lingering heel issue). The workload was Weaver's third highest of the campaign, and the second-year pro actually set a career high in receiving yards Sunday. Even if Harrison is inhibited or sidelined Week 18 at the Rams, Weaver is an unlikely candidate to produce in that contest considering Wilson and TE Trey McBride have been absorbing most of the targets down the stretch of the current campaign.

Whittington returned three kicks for 80 yards during Monday's 27-24 loss to the Falcons.

For the third time in the last five games, Whittington failed to draw a target on offense. Konata Mumpfield and Xavier Smith have taken over as the primary backups behind Puka Nacua with Davante Adams (hamstring) still nursing an injury, and Whittington tied with Tutu Atwell with just 13 snaps on offense. It's likely that Whittington's primary role for the Rams will continue to be as a kick returner again in the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Cardinals.

Atwell failed to secure his only target during Monday's 27-24 loss to the Falcons.

The only target that Atwell managed to earn during his 13 snaps on offense came late in the fourth quarter on a deep ball from Matthew Stafford that bounced off of Atwell's outstretched hands. In his three games back from injury, Atwell has recorded a total of just 25 snaps on offense and only one catch for nine yards, keeping him well off the fantasy radar with the regular-season finale against the Cardinals up next in Week 18.

Mumpfield secured two of five targets for 10 yards during Monday's 27-24 loss to the Falcons.

For the second straight week, Mumpfield brought in less than half of his targets from Matthew Stafford, including an overthrown pass in the second quarter that Jessie Bates intercepted and returned 34 yards for a touchdown. Mumpfield has gotten an extended look in the last six weeks, with at least 20 snaps played on offense during each contest, but an 8-80-0 receiving line on 17 targets over that span doesn't inspire much confidence for fantasy purposes. Week 18 against the Cardinals still has meaning for the Rams in terms of playoff seeding, but even with Davante Adams (hamstring) still recovering from injury, Mumpfield's production seems unlikely to deviate much from his recent trends.

Diggs' attorneys appeared in court on his behalf Tuesday in Dedham, Mass. after the receiver was charged with felony strangulation or suffocation and misdemeanor assault and battery stemming from an alleged incident that occurred Dec. 2, Frank O'Laughlin of Boston 25 News reports.

Diggs was never arrested in connection with the incident, which took place one day after the Patriots' 33-15 win over the Giants in Week 13. His attorneys are seeking to have the police report impounded, arguing that details about the case should remain sealed. Diggs is scheduled to be arraigned Jan. 23, but the Patriots haven't yet provided comment on the matter nor indicated whether the wideout's availability for Week 18 against the Dolphins or the team's ensuing postseason run is in any jeopardy.

Jackson caught two of three targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Giants.

Jackson played just eight offensive snaps in his fourth game of the season, but he managed to earn three targets while providing depth at wide receiver behind Tre Tucker, Dont'e Thornton and Tyler Lockett, while Jack Bech was sidelined for Sunday's contest due to a back injury. However, Jackson's already limited role could disappear if Bech manages to return for a Week 18 tilt against the Chiefs.

Thornton caught two of four targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Giants.

Thornton filled the WR2 role behind Tre Tucker with fellow rookie Jack Bech (back) sidelined for Sunday's contest, but Thornton averaged just 3.0 yards per target while playing 78 percent of the Raiders' offensive snaps. If Bech manages to return for a Week 18 matchup against the Chiefs, Thornton's involvement could diminish.

Johnson secured both of his targets for 19 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-17 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.

Johnson managed to record multiple receptions for the first time since Week 12 despite logging 11 snaps on offense (16 percent), his lowest volume since Week 1. With four healthy and more experienced receivers ahead of him on the depth chart, even Sunday's modest stat line can be considered a success for Johnson, who projects to remain in a deep reserve role for a critical Week 18 regular-season finale against the Panthers that could decide the NFC South.

Smith had four receptions (on six targets) for 67 yards while returning three punts for 23 yards in Monday's 27-24 loss to Atlanta.

Smith was shockingly the game's leading receiver in a Monday Night Football matchup that featured star receivers Puka Nacua and Drake London. The 27-year-old Smith's six targets were the most he has seen in a pro game to date. The return specialist was the biggest beneficiary of WR Davante Adams' (hamstring) absence after Tutu Atwell and Konata Mumpfield were held to two catches for 10 yards combined in Monday's loss. Smith appears to be the backup most likely to step up behind Nacua if Adams remains sidelined against Arizona on Sunday for the final game of the regular season.
