Jefferson recorded eight receptions on 11 targets for 92 yards in Sunday's 27-25 win over the Packers.

Jefferson wasn't targeted until midway through the second quarter and had only two catches for 13 yards at halftime. However, he got going in the second half, with the highlight being a long 37-yard reception on which the yardage came primarily after the catch. Jefferson ultimately led the team in targets, receptions and yards, though his touchdown streak ended at three games.

Washington finished with four receptions on five targets for 41 yards while losing 11 yards on his only carry in Sunday's 20-3 win over Cleveland.

Washington squandered another starting opportunity when he lost 11 yards on his only rushing attempt to further dampen a modest receiving day (4-41-0). The sixth-round rookie is not shaping up to be a strong fantasy play in Week 18, especially if injured starter Jaylen Waddle (knee) is able to recover from his current injury. Washington should be considered only a deep-league option in next Sunday's scheduled tilt against the Jets.

Thomas recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Titans. He added one rush for 18 yards.

Thomas has been on an impressive run of production, particularly considering Mac Jones has been his quarterback. That continued Sunday, as he was the focal point of Jacksonville's passing attack and delivered long catches of 31 and 17 yards. He capped his performance with an impressive 11-yard touchdown reception midway through the fourth quarter to all but clinch victory for the Jaguars. Thomas has at least 80 receiving yards and/or a touchdown in six straight contests.

Jeudy corralled 12 of 18 targets for 94 receiving yards in Sunday's 20-3 loss to Miami.

Jeudy finished with a game-high 12 receptions following last week's dud against the Bengals. It was apparent that backup QB Dorian Thompson-Robinson was trying to get his top wideout involved after leading the receiver to a 3-20-0 receiving line in Week 16. The volume did wonders for those in PPR formats, and fantasy managers will be hoping for more of the same in next Sunday's regular-season finale against the Ravens.

Hill (wrist) corralled all nine of his targets for 105 yards in Sunday's 20-3 win over the Browns.

Hill showed no ill effects from his lingering wrist injury en route to his third game of the campaign recording 100 or more receiving yards in Sunday's casual victory. The speed demon used his sure hands to nick and cut the opposition to a strong fantasy line on his most efficient showing to date in 2024. Hill will be geared up for a crucial regular-season finale against the Jets next Sunday as Miami fights for its playoff life.

Legette brought in five of nine targets for 28 yards in the Panthers' 48-14 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Legette made his return from a one-game absence due to hip and wrist injuries and finished tied for the team lead in receptions while also setting the pace in targets. However, the rookie could do little with his five catches, his highest total since Week 4. Legette will aim to close out his first NFL campaign by exploiting the vulnerabilities of an inconsistent Falcons secondary on the road in Week 18.

Tolbert brought in three of four targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in the Cowboys' 41-7 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Tolbert recorded his seventh touchdown of the campaign on a four-yard grab with just under six minutes remaining in the first quarter, a catch that served as the highlight of his afternoon. The third-year pro battled through a finger injury to suit up Sunday, and he served as the No. 2 receiver in the Cowboys' first game without CeeDee Lamb (IR-shoulder). Tolbert will face an inconsistent Commanders secondary in a Week 18 home matchup to close out the season.

Cooks brought in four of eight targets for 52 yards in the Cowboys' 41-7 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Cooks was unsurprisingly the leader across the board for the Cowboys in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon as Dallas played its first game without CeeDee Lamb (IR-shoulder). However, the extra attention from Cooper Rush, which resulted in season-high yardage and target totals for Cooks, still led to a modest fantasy afternoon overall in a game that progressively got away from Dallas. Cooks should have an elevated role again during the Week 18 home regular-season finale against the Commanders.

Washington (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Washington had missed the Falcons' last three games due to a concussion. He was able to clear the league's five-step concussion protocols, but he will be a healthy inactive for Sunday night's game. Washington's next opportunity to play will be in Week 18 against the Panthers.

McMillan brought in all five targets for 51 yards and two touchdowns and rushed once for nine yards in the Buccaneers' 48-14 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

The rookie wideout continued his impressive late-season run with his fifth and sixth touchdown receptions over the last four contests. McMillan hit pay dirt from 10 and 16 yards out in the second and fourth quarters, respectively, and he finished second in catches and targets to Mike Evans on the afternoon. McMillan has five catches in three consecutive contests heading into the Week 18 regular-season finale against the Saints.
