Chase caught nine of 11 targets for 94 yards in Sunday's 37-27 win over the Titans.

Chase didn't account for any of Joe Burrow's three first-half touchdown passes, but the star wideout posted a team-high 79 receiving yards heading into the locker room. The Bengals nursed a comfortable lead throughout the second half and didn't turn to the air much, though Chase still finished with team-leading totals in targets, catches and receiving yards. Chase will look to add to his impressive season totals of 102 catches for 1,413 yards and 15 touchdowns in Week 16 against the Browns.

McLaurin finished with seven receptions (on 10 targets) for 73 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Saints.

McLaurin teamed up with quarterback Jayden Daniels to score both of Washington's touchdowns on the day. It was Scary Terry's second consecutive game with multiple trips to the end zone, and his fourth overall this season (11 total touchdowns). The 28-year-old is just 31 yards shy of recording his fifth 1,000-yard campaign in his sixth season with the Commanders. McLaurin should accomplish the feat with ease in a pivotal matchup against the Eagles next Sunday.

Wilson caught three of six targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-25 win over the Jaguars.

Wilson had a 19-yard catch followed by a 22-yard touchdown reception on consecutive plays on the Jets' first drive. His next catch didn't come until less than 10 minutes remained in the fourth quarter, but Wilson set up a third-quarter field goal in between by drawing a 30-yard pass-interference penalty. Wilson took a back seat to Davante Adams, who had nine catches for 198 yards and two touchdowns, all in the second half. With Aaron Rodgers enjoying a resurgence down the stretch, at least statistically, Wilson and Adams have coexisted effectively, so both wide receivers will be high-end fantasy options in Week 16 against the Rams.

Adams caught nine of 12 targets for 198 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 32-25 win over the Jaguars. He also caught a two-point conversion.

Adams was blanked on two first-half targets as Aaron Rodgers completed only three passes before halftime, but the veteran wideout secured a 12-yard reception on the first play of the second half and took over from there. Adams made a 43-yard catch on New York's second possession of the third quarter and added a one-yard touchdown catch three plays later after having a touchdown ruling reversed on a red-zone reception in between. That touchdown reception was the 100th of Adams' career and gave the Jets a 17-16 lead. Adams celebrated the occasion by adding an octopus in the fourth quarter, putting the Jets up 23-22 with a career-long 71-yard touchdown catch before extending the advantage to three points by catching the ensuing two-point conversion. To round out this memorable performance, Adams made a sensational 23-yard catch along the sideline followed by a 41-yard reception to set up Breece Hall's game-winning one-yard rushing touchdown with 1:05 remaining. After the best half of Adams' illustrious career, he'll look to put on an encore against the Rams in Week 16.

DuBose (head) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Texans.

The wide receiver had to be strapped to the stretcher board and wheeled off after more than 10 minutes of medical attention, per Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com. Despite the scare, DuBose was in stable condition as he was taken to a local hospital for further evaluation, per the team.

Wilson (illness) is active for Sunday's game against the Steelers.

The wide receiver was downgraded to questionable Saturday after coming down with an illness. Wilson has played on more than 50 percent of Philadelphia's offensive snaps just three times this season, and he is unlikely to play a large role Sunday with A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith and Jahan Dotson all healthy.

Legette suffered a groin injury during Sunday's contest against the Cowboys, Kassidy Hill of the Panthers' official site reports.

Before he departed in the middle of the third quarter, Legette had two catches (on three targets) for seven yards and one carry for two yards. For as long as Legette is sidelined, Adam Thielen, Jalen Coker, David Moore and Deven Thompkins are the healthy and available wide receivers for the Panthers.

Williams is in line for an expanded role in Sunday's Week 15 matchup against the Eagles with George Pickens (hamstring) inactive for the contest.

Playing without Pickens in Week 14 against the Browns, Williams resurfaced in the Steelers' air attack, albeit modestly, with a 3-36-0 line on four targets. However, that represented a significant uptick in involvement for the veteran trade-deadline acquisition, whose only reception in a Steelers uniform prior to that game had been a 32-yard touchdown catch in his Week 10 team debut against the Commanders. Williams again will have added opportunities for targets Sunday, although those will come versus a talented Philadelphia secondary that's allowed an NFC-low 178.5 passing yards per game.

Shepard (foot) is active for Sunday's Week 15 game against the Chargers, Scott Smith of the team's official site reports.

Shepard was trending upward entering the weekend after managing to get in a limited practice Friday, and his availability is now confirmed. The veteran wideout has settled in nicely as a complementary pass-catching option in the wake of Chris Godwin's season-ending ankle injury, recording a 21-194-0 line on 33 targets over the last six contests.

Downs (shoulder) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Downs missed the Colts' win over the Patriots in Week 13, but following the team's subsequent bye he was able to practice fully Thursday and Friday before being listed as questionable to face Denver. With his Week 15 active status confirmed, Downs should reclaim his key role in a wideout corps that also features Michael Pittman and Alec Pierce, with Adonai Mitchell and Anthony Gould available to mix in. In 10 games thus far, Downs has compiled a 53/594/4 receiving line on 78 targets, a pace that keeps him on the fantasy radar for the NFL stretch run.
