  • Keon Coleman WR | BUF

    Bills' Keon Coleman: One big play in win

    Coleman caught one of his two targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 48-42 win over the Lions.

    In his first game back from a four-week absence due to a wrist injury, Coleman found himself leading all Buffalo wide receivers in playing time. The rookie wideout played 44 of the Bills' 70 offensive snaps Sunday, ahead of Khalil Shakir (41), Mack Hollins (35), Amari Cooper (32) and Curtis Samuel (19). Coleman has flashed his big-play potential before, and his 64-yard grab against Detroit was just another example of his ability to open things up for Buffalo's passing attack. The Florida State product will look to get even more involved down the stretch, starting with a Week 16 matchup against the Patriots.

  • Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Modest production in win

    Turpin failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 30-14 win over the Panthers.

    Though Turpin didn't record a reception Sunday, he did manage to gain 27 yards on two rushing attempts against the Panthers. The speedy wideout played just 14 of the Cowboys' 73 offensive snaps and was held without a catch for just the fourth time all season. Turpin is a dynamic weapon, but he does not see enough consistent usage in the Cowboys offense to be a viable fantasy asset. With that said, the 28-year-old will look to be more involved in Week 16 against a vulnerable Tampa Bay secondary.

  • Commanders' Olamide Zaccheaus: Three receptions in win

    Zaccheaus caught three of four targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints.

    Zaccheaus played just under 50 percent of Washington's 78 offensive snaps Sunday while operating as the Commanders' No. 3 wide receiver behind Terry McLaurin and Dyami Brown. The veteran wideout caught three passes for the second-straight week, but he was unable to turn those touches into significant fantasy production. Zaccheaus should continue to be ignored for fantasy fantasy purposes as the season approaches its conclusion. The Commanders host the Eagles in Week 16.

  • Andrei Iosivas WR | CIN

    Bengals' Andrei Iosivas: One grab in win

    Iosivas secured one of his four targets for five yards in Sunday's 37-27 win over the Titans.

    Iosivas' five receiving yards Sunday accounted for his lowest total in a game in which he recorded at least one catch. The second-year wideout played 87 percent of the Bengals' offensive snaps against the Titans, accounting for his highest snap share over the past five contests. Despite the increased playing time, Iosivas had a quiet day on the field, while fellow wideouts Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins remained the focal points of Cincinnati's aerial attack. Fully entrenched as the Bengals' No. 3 wide receiver, the Princeton product should not be trusted for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 16 matchup against the Browns.

  • Colts' Adonai Mitchell: No receptions again in loss

    Mitchell did not have a reception on four targets in Sunday's loss at Denver. He also threw a backwards pass that was returned for a touchdown on a trick play and officially ruled a fumble.

    For a second consecutive game, Mitchell got significant playing time on offense (37 of the offense's 76 snaps) but failed to produce. He had no receptions on two targets in a Week 13 loss to the Patriots. Mitchell had a rapport with Anthony Richardson on deep passes earlier in the season, but they've failed to rekindle the connection since the QB's return to the lineup.

  • Jalen Nailor WR | LV

    Vikings' Jalen Nailor: One reception in win

    Nailor had one reception for five yards in Monday's win over Chicago.

    Nailor had his first reception in two games, as he's become a distant fourth among the Vikings' receiving options since the return of T.J. Hockenson. He's still getting plenty of playing time as the No. 3 receiver, however, as he played 41 of the offense's 77 snaps.

  • Chargers' Quentin Johnston: Good to go for Week 16

    Johnston no longer appears on the Chargers' Week 16 injury report and should be available to play Thursday against the Broncos, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.

    The Chargers released their initial Week 16 report Monday, which listed Johnston as a non-participant due to an ankle injury. However, Popper notes that Johnston's inclusion on the report was a mistake, and the Chargers instead intended to list left guard Zion Johnson with the ankle injury. Johnston is coming off a busy outing in Sunday's 40-17 loss to the Buccaneers, as he saw a season-high 10 targets and finished with five catches for 45 yards and a touchdown.

  • Isaiah McKenzie: Headed to South Beach

    The Dolphins signed McKenzie to the practice squad Tuesday.

    McKenzie signed a one-year contract with the Giants in March after playing with the Colts in 2023. The veteran wideout suffered multiple lower body injuries during the postseason and, after being placed on injured reserve, he was let go by the Giants in early September with an injury settlement. It appears McKenzie is fully healthy and will be available to be elevated to the Dolphins' active roster for the final three games of the regular season. The 2017 fifth-round pick played in 13 regular-season games for Indianapolis in 2023 and finished with 11 catches (on 14 targets) for 82 yards.

  • Grant DuBose WR | BUF

    Dolphins' Grant DuBose: Placed on injured reserve

    The Dolphins placed DuBose (head) on injured reserve Tuesday.

    DuBose suffered a scary injury during the Dolphins' 20-12 loss to the Texans on Sunday, which resulted in him being stretchered off the field after receiving medical attention. He was taken to a local Houston hospital for additional care, and initial tests revealed positive results for the 23-year-old. With three games left in the regular season, DuBose will likely not see the field for the rest of the 2024 campaign unless the Dolphins make a surprise playoff run. Assuming the Dolphins do not make the postseason, the second-year wideout will finish the 2024 regular season with two catches (on four targets) for 11 yards across three games.

  • Texans' John Metchie: Managing shoulder injury

    Metchie was listed as a non-participant for Tuesday's walk-through practice due to a shoulder injury.

    During this past Sunday's 20-12 win over the Dolphins, Metchie finished fourth in snaps (21) among Texans receivers, finishing the day with two catches for 17 yards on four targets. Metchie's 42 percent snap share was his lowest since Week 8, and the shoulder injury may in part explain why he saw a smaller role than usual.
