Williams caught one of his two targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Eagles.

Williams continues to struggle to take a step forward in Pittsburgh's passing attack since joining the team in Week 10. The veteran wideout played just 15 of the Steelers' 43 offensive snaps, behind fellow wide receivers Calvin Austin (35) and Van Jefferson (35). Despite No. 1 wideout George Pickens (hamstring) missing his second straight game, Williams was mostly an afterthought in the offensive scheme. The 30-year-old will look to bounce back in Week 16 when the Steelers visit the Ravens.

Jefferson caught one of his two targets for zero yards in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Eagles.

Jefferson finished the game tied for the most snaps at wide receiver (35) with Calvin Austin, with both handling an 81 percent snap share in the contest. With fellow wideout George Pickens (hamstring) sidelined for the past two contests, the 28-year-old Jefferson has seen an increase in his playing time but saw just three total targets from quarterback Russell Wilson in that span. Unfortunately, the veteran was unable to get anything going against a stingy Philadelphia secondary. Jefferson will look to bounce back in a Week 16 matchup against the Ravens, however, his already limited usage could take a hit if Pickens is able to return.

Hollins caught one of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's 48-42 win over the Lions.

After scoring touchdowns in two straight games, Hollins was essentially a non-factor Sunday against the Lions. The wideout played 50 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps, but he was unable to do much with the three targets he saw come his way. In the four games rookie Keon Coleman missed with a wrist injury, the 31-year-old Hollins averaged roughly a 72 percent offensive snap share. With the return of Coleman to the lineup, the veteran's snap share took a hit, which will likely continue to be the case going forward. Hollins should remain off the fantasy radar heading into a Week 16 matchup against the Patriots.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
