Coker recorded four receptions on six targets for 110 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Cowboys.

Coker returned from a three-game absence and immediately stepped back into a significant role. He finished second on the team in targets and tied for second in receptions, and the highlight of his performance came on an 83-yard touchdown just before halftime. Coker has at least six targets in three of his last four games, so he should maintain a consistent role in the offense down the stretch, though his results may remain unpredictable due to the inconsistency of Bryce Young.

Robinson brought in four of nine targets for 38 yards in the Giants' 35-14 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Robinson finished a distant runner-up across the board in all three receiving categories to Malik Nabers. The reliable third-year pro eclipsed the 70-catch mark on the season (71) with Sunday's production, and he heads into a favorable Week 16 road matchup against the Falcons with at least four receptions in four of the last five contests.

Thielen recorded five receptions on seven targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Cowboys.

The Panthers couldn't get their passing attack on track, with the only explosive play being an 83-yard touchdown pass to Jalen Coker. Thus, despite leading the team in targets and receptions, Thielen turned in a modest performance. Positively, he should remain Bryce Young's top target, though the overall state of the Carolina offense may lead to inconsistent results.

Dell secured both targets for 26 yards and rushed once for 15 yards in the Texans' 20-12 win over the Dolphins on Sunday. He also returned three punts for 45 yards.

Dell's receiving yardage total, modest as it was, qualified as the second highest on the Texans for the afternoon behind Joe Mixon's 33. Dell also recorded his longest rush since Week 2 with his 15-yard run, but he's now posted under 40 receiving yards in five of his last eight games overall. Dell will look to make inroads against the Chiefs' defense in a Week 16 road matchup on Saturday afternoon.

Moore caught two of his four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Cowboys.

The veteran wideout saw minimal offensive work in the first three quarters of Sunday's loss with the return and emergence of undrafted rookie Jalen Coker (4-110-1). However, Moore was targeted four times in the fourth quarter after 2024 first-round pick Xavier Legette exited the Week 15 loss with a groin injury. Moore could continue to see increased work with Carolina's first-team offense in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals if Legette is unable to suit up.

Flowers secured six of seven targets for 53 yards in the Ravens' 35-14 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Flowers finished with team-high catch and target totals in the lopsided win, but he was only third in receiving yards behind Rashod Bateman and Justice Hill. The second-year wideout has eclipsed 50 receiving yards in three straight games for the first time this season heading into a Week 16 home matchup against the Steelers on Saturday afternoon.

Heath (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Seahawks.

With Romeo Doubs (concussion) back in the lineup, Heath is the odd man out in the Packers' wide receiver corps, as Bo Melton is up as the fifth wideout. Sunday marks the third time Heath is inactive this season. He has six catches for 41 yards and one touchdown on seven targets in 2024.

Hopkins brought in five of six targets for 36 yards in the Chiefs' 21-7 win over the Browns on Sunday.

Hopkins finished second in receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon for the Chiefs, although the latter total was particularly unremarkable. Hopkins has at least four catches in four straight games, but he's been under 40 receiving yards in four of his last five contests overall. Hopkins could continue to struggle with efficiency in a Week 16 home matchup against the Texans on Saturday afternoon if Patrick Mahomes (ankle) is forced to miss the contest and is replaced by Carson Wentz.

Pierce has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game at Denver due to a concussion, Nate Atkins of The Indianapolis Star reports.

Pierce was targeted on a deep ball by QB Anthony Richardson late in the first half, hitting the ground hard while attempting to haul in the pass and going directly to the locker room afterward. With a concussion confirmed for Pierce, he'll finish Week 16 with no catches on his four targets. Ashton Dulin (ankle) is inactive Sunday, so Adonai Mitchell and Anthony Gould are the tertiary WR options in the Colts offense behind Michael Pittman and Josh Downs.

Bateman secured three of five targets for 80 yards and two touchdowns in the Ravens' 35-14 win over the Giants on Sunday.

Bateman recorded a team-high receiving yardage total while also coming down with multiple touchdown catches for the first time in his career. The fourth-year pro managed 49- and 20-yard scoring grabs in the second quarter, leading him to his best yardage tally since Week 7. Bateman will aim to put together a successful encore at the expense of the division-rival Steelers in a Week 16 Saturday afternoon matchup.
