Ladd McConkey WR | LAC
Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Inactive Sunday night
McConkey (knee/shoulder) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Chiefs.
After being limited at practice Wednesday through Friday, McConkey was listed as questionable for the Chargers' Sunday evening tilt. With McConkey having been made inactive, Quentin Johnston, Joshua Palmer, Jalen Reagor, Derius Davis and DJ Chark are in line to handle the team's Week 14 wideout duties. McConkey's next chance to see game action will arrive Dec. 15 versus the Buccaneers.

Odell Beckham Jr. WR | NYG
Dolphins' Odell Beckham: Secures lone target versus New York
Beckham secured his only target for a one-yard gain during Sunday's 32-26 overtime win over the Jets.
Beckham did little on offense, as usual, while splitting No. 3 reps with rookie sixth-round pick Malik Washington. The 32-year-old has now failed to reach 20 receiving yards in a single game across nine appearances this season, and he's logged just two catches over the last three weeks. Beckham hasn't demonstrated anything resembling a reliable floor heading into a Week 15 road matchup against the Texans.

Wan'Dale Robinson WR | TEN
Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Four grabs in Sunday's loss
Robinson caught four of 11 targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 14-11 loss to the Saints.
The slot receiver led the Giants in targets but did little with the volume, finishing third on the team in receiving yards and fourth in catches. Robinson has caught multiple passes in every game this season, but he hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 5 and hasn't topped 60 yards since Week 4. He'll try to do more with his opportunities in Week 15 against the Ravens.

Malik Washington WR | MIA
Dolphins' Malik Washington: Shines in return game Week 14
Washington failed to secure his only target during Sunday's 32-26 overtime win over the Jets.
Washington wasn't able to record any offensive stats during Sunday's divisional win, but he did return three kickoffs for 95 yards, with a long of 45. The rookie sixth-round pick also took his only punt return for a gain of 10 yards. Veteran Odell Beckham was barely more effective than Washington, as he secured his only target for one yard. Washington and Beckham will figure to continue splitting No. 3 reps behind Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle on the road versus Houston in Week 15.

Malik Nabers WR | NYG
Giants' Malik Nabers: Leading receiving in loss
Nabers caught five of 10 targets for 79 yards in Sunday's 14-11 loss to the Saints.
While it wasn't an efficient performance, Nabers led the Giants in receiving yards and tied for the team lead in catches with Tyrone Tracy and Daniel Bellinger. Nabers hasn't gotten into the end zone since Week 3, but the rookie wideout has caught at least five passes in six straight games despite the team's QB turmoil, posting a 41-392-0 line on 66 targets. Nabers will try to take advantage of an exploitable secondary in Week 15 against the Ravens.

Demarcus Robinson WR | SF
Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Hurts shoulder Sunday
Robinson sustained a shoulder injury during Sunday's game against the Bills, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.
At the time of his departure early in the third quarter, Robinson had been held without a catch on one target. As long as Robinson is sidelined, Tutu Atwell, Tyler Johnson, Jordan Whittington and Xavier Smith will be the options at wide receiver behind the top duo of Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua.

Brian Thomas Jr. WR | JAC
Jaguars' Brian Thomas: Remains bright spot
Thomas recorded eight receptions on 12 targets for 86 yards in Sunday's 10-6 win over the Titans.
Thomas was one of the few players to get going in an ugly offensive showing from both teams. He delivered splash plays of 31 and 21 yards on the Jaguars' only touchdown drive of the game, setting up a rushing score for Tank Bigsby. Despite otherwise being limited to short gains, Thomas has at least 75 receiving yards and four receptions in each of his last three games.

DeAndre Carter WR | CLE
Bears' DeAndre Carter: Officially done for Sunday
Carter (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's contest against the 49ers, Courtney Cronin of ESPN.com reports.
Carter went down with a hamstring injury in the first quarter and his day is now officially done in San Francisco. In his absence, Josh Blackwell will continue to operate in a more significant role on special teams.

Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC
Raiders' Jakobi Meyers: Co-leader in receptions Sunday
Meyers secured seven of 10 targets for 67 yards in the Raiders' 28-13 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.
Despite the disappointing team outcome and Aidan O'Connell's exit in the second half due to a knee injury, the ever-reliable Meyers turned in another productive effort that included a co-team-high reception total. The veteran wideout also set the pace in targets and finished just a yard short of drawing even with Michael Mayer for the team lead in receiving yards. Meyers has at least six catches in five of the last six contests heading into a Week 15 Monday night home matchup against the Falcons on Dec. 16.

Mike Evans WR | SF
Buccaneers' Mike Evans: Four catches in win
Evans secured four of five targets for 69 yards in the Buccaneers' 28-13 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
Evans tied Sterling Shepard and Jalen McMillan for the team lead in receptions while checking in second in receiving yards. The veteran wideout got a big chunk of his production on a 32-yard grab, which was the second longest of the game for the Buccaneers. Evans has eclipsed 60 receiving yards in three straight games heading into a Week 15 road battle against the Chargers.
