  • Tee Higgins WR | CIN

    Bengals' Tee Higgins: Strong showing on 10 targets

    Higgins recorded five receptions on 10 targets for 69 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-38 loss to the Steelers.

    Higgins continues to command targets at an elite rate, with Sunday's effort marking the fourth time in seven games that he's seen double-digit opportunities. It wasn't his most efficient effort, but he had a 31-yard reception midway through the third quarter and hauled in a one-yard touchdown reception one quarter later to turn in a strong fantasy performance. Higgins now has five touchdowns on the campaign and has a trip to the end zone in three straight contests.

  • George Pickens WR | DAL

    Steelers' George Pickens: Scores third TD in uneven showing

    Pickens recorded three receptions on six targets for 74 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-38 win over the Bengals.

    As is often the case, Pickens' performance had plenty of ups and downs. He was involved in a pick-six early in the game when he fell to the ground on a target, only to cash in on a 17-yard touchdown on the Steelers' next drive. Pickens later chipped in long receptions of 36 and 19 yards but was penalized for unsportsmanlike conduct on each. Setting aside the penalties, Pickens has been very productive in five games since Russell Wilson took over under center, averaging 81.1 yards per game while accounting for all three of his touchdowns on the season.

  • Britain Covey WR | PHI

    Eagles' Britain Covey: Suffers neck injury in win

    Covey suffered a neck injury during Sunday's 24-19 win over the Ravens, Olivia Reiner of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

    Covey sustained the injury on a punt return in the second half, finishing his day with four returns for 30 yards in the victory. The 27-year-old's status at practice this week will be worth monitoring ahead of the team's Week 14 matchup with the Panthers.

  • Tylan Wallace WR | CLE

    Ravens' Tylan Wallace: Two catches as Bateman gets hurt

    Wallace caught both of his targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Eagles. He added two punt returns for 16 yards.

    Wallace was the only wide receiver other than Zay Flowers to record a catch for the Ravens, as Rashod Bateman (knee) didn't finish the contest, Nelson Agholor didn't catch either of his two targets and Diontae Johnson wasn't targeted. If Bateman isn't available after Baltimore's Week 14 bye, Wallace could see more opportunities on offense in Week 15 against the Giants in addition to his usual role as the punt returner on special teams.

  • A.J. Brown WR | PHI

    Eagles' A.J. Brown: Silent in second half of win

    Brown caught five of six targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 24-19 win over the Ravens.

    Brown accounted for 66 of Jalen Hurts' 104 first-half passing yards, but Hurts threw for only 14 yards after halftime, with none of those going to Brown. While Brown has at least 65 receiving yards in eight of nine appearances this season, this was a disappointing performance from the star wideout considering the Ravens came into Sunday with the second-most receiving yards and second-most receiving touchdowns allowed to wide receivers. Brown will look to bounce back in Week 14 against the Panthers.

  • Chris Conley WR | SF

    49ers' Chris Conley: Active for Week 13

    Conley (knee) is active for Sunday night's contest against the Bills, Lindsey Pallares of the team's official website reports.

    Conley will ultimately be able to go in Week 13 after logging back-to-back limited practices to end the week. The wide receiver has played just seven offensive snaps over the last two games, failing to reel in his only target.

  • Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN

    Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Scores again

    Chase recorded six receptions on nine targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-38 loss to the Steelers.

    Chase was held quiet for much of the game, but two big plays changed the outlook of his performance. The first came early in the second quarter when he found a soft spot in the middle of the end zone to record a four-yard score. Chase next made a significant impact on a 49-yard catch late in the fourth quarter to set up another score. He still leads the NFL in both receiving yards and touchdowns while also finding the end zone in three straight contests.

  • Keon Coleman WR | BUF

    Bills' Keon Coleman: Inactive Sunday Night

    Coleman (wrist) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the 49ers.

    Following the Bills' Week 12 bye, Coleman was listed as limited on all three practice reports this week before being deemed questionable for the contest. With the 2024 second-rounder -- who last played in Week 9 -- still sidelined, Amari Cooper, Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel, Mack Hollins and Jalen Virgil will handle Buffalo's wideout duties versus San Francisco. Coleman's next chance to return to action will arrive Dec. 8 against the Rams.

  • Rashod Bateman WR | BAL

    Ravens' Rashod Bateman: Out due to knee injury

    Bateman has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game versus the Eagles due to a knee injury.

    Bateman left the field with a limp in the third quarter and was deemed unable to rejoin the offense for the rest of Week 13, ending it without being targeted by QB Lamar Jackson. Considering he was ruled out so quickly, there's a chance he could be in line for some sort of absence, but fortunately for Bateman the Ravens have a Week 14 bye on tap to aid in his recovery.

  • Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Sustains hand injury in Week 13

    Robinson suffered a hand injury during Sunday's game at New Orleans, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

    Before departing in the middle of the fourth quarter, Robinson had hauled in two of three targets for 49 yards and one touchdown. With Robinson on the sideline, Tutu Atwell, Tyler Johnson, Jordan Whittington and Xavier Smith will be the available wide receivers to the Rams offense behind the top pair of Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua.
