  • Broncos' Lil'Jordan Humphrey: Quiet showing against Jaguars

    Humphrey caught one of two targets for nine yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    Humphrey played just 13 of the Broncos' 66 offensive snaps, the fewest of any Broncos wide receiver Sunday. The veteran wideout has recorded seven catches for 78 yards and a touchdown since re-joining the Broncos in Week 11 against the Chiefs. Humphrey is a talented player, but his inconsistent usage make him very difficult to trust for consistent fantasy production. The 27-year-old should be ignored for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 17 rematch against the Chiefs.

  • Marvin Mims WR | DEN

    Broncos' Marvin Mims: Four touches in Week 16

    Mims caught all three of his targets for 26 yards and rushed once for three yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    Mims continued to play a depth role in the Broncos' wide-receiver corps, playing 32 percent of Denver's offensive snaps in the contest. The Broncos' coaching staff makes it a point to get the ball in the third-year wideout's hands most games, but his opportunities are often in the short passing game and limit his ability to have impact performances each week. Mims has recorded multiple receptions in all but four games this season while also handling at least one carry in all but three contests. Despite his consistent involvement, the 23-year-old has recorded just 32 catches for 302 yards and a touchdown, adding 12 carries for 78 yards and a score. Heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Chiefs, the Oklahoma product cannot be trusted for meaningful fantasy production.

  • Texans' Xavier Hutchinson: Quiet stretch continues

    Hutchinson caught one of two targets for four yards in Sunday's 23-21 win over Las Vegas in Week 16.

    The reemergence of Christian Kirk (40 snaps, five targets) had an impact on Hutchinson's output, and he was limited to two targets for the third consecutive week. Hutchinson has maintained a high snap share regardless of opponent or game plan, but any significant fantasy-level production is dependent on injuries to fellow wideouts. He's had two or fewer catches in five consecutive games.

  • Isaiah Bond WR | CLE

    Browns' Isaiah Bond: Untargeted in loss

    Bond was not targeted and had one rush attempt for minus-1 yard in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills in Week 16. He was credited with 21 receiving yards after taking a lateral from fellow wideout Malachi Corley.

    Bond has shown chemistry with quarterback Shedeur Sanders, particularly on deep throws, but it wasn't there for him Sunday. It's been an inconsistent year for the rookie wideout, who went without a catch for the fifth time in his last eight games. For the season, Bond has caught 16 of 41 targets for 309 yards and zero touchdowns.

  • Gage Larvadain WR | CLE

    Browns' Gage Larvadain: Limited usage in loss

    Larvadain was not targeted on five offensive snaps and returned one punt for three yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Buffalo in Week 16.

    Larvadain had experienced an uptick in playing time and targets the last three games, but that changed Sunday. He fell behind Malachi Corley (30 snaps, four targets) and was mostly limited to punt return duty. There's certainly room for upward mobility on the depth chart, but Cleveland's offense hasn't been kind to wide receivers in 2025.

  • Cedric Tillman WR | CLE

    Browns' Cedric Tillman: Increased playing time in loss

    Tillman caught his lone target for eight yards in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills in Week 16.

    Tillman, who played just seven snaps last week after returning from a concussion, was given 31 snaps Sunday. Unfortunately for the receiver, he was not - and has not been -- a preferred option for quarterback Shedeur Sanders. Over the last five contests, Tillman has three catches on eight targets for 36 yards.

  • Malachi Corley WR | CLE

    Browns' Malachi Corley: More involved in Week 16

    Corley caught two of four targets for 11 yards and gained 30 rushing yards on three carries in Sunday's 23-20 loss to Buffalo in Week 16. He also returned four kickoffs for 107 yards.

    Corley was allotted season highs in targets and snaps (30 snaps, 45 percent) in the loss. His three rush attempts were also a season high, as the rookie wideout was part of the crew that stepped up in the wake of running back Quinshon Judkins' season-ending leg and ankle injuries. Corley is part of an unimpressive wideout group in Cleveland but is setting himself up for a spot on next year's roster.

  • Ravens' DeAndre Hopkins: Shows rapport with Huntley

    Hopkins recorded four receptions on five targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Patriots.

    Hopkins has made a limited impact this season, though he emerged in the second half of Sunday's loss with Tyler Huntley under center. The duo connected on gains of nine, 16 and eight yards, resulting in Hopkins' highest yardage total since Week 5. Even if Huntley remains under center in Week 17 with Lamar Jackson nursing a back injury, Hopkins is likely to return to a minimal role in the Baltimore offense.

  • Kalif Raymond WR | DET

    Lions' Kalif Raymond: Benefits from pass-heavy script

    Raymond recorded four receptions on five targets for 62 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers.

    Jared Goff took to the air 54 times, and Raymond took advantage by earning a season-high five targets. He played a key role in the Lions' fourth quarter comeback effort, catching a short pass over the middle before turning upfield for a 27-yard score midway through the fourth quarter. Raymond has still topped 20 receiving yards only three times in 13 games, and he's likely to return to a peripheral role in Week 17 against the Vikings.

  • Troy Franklin WR | DEN

    Broncos' Troy Franklin: Nabs long catch

    Franklin recorded four receptions on five targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

    Franklin retained a solid role in the Denver offense despite the return of Pat Bryant from a hamstring injury, with the former tying for third on the team in targets. He produced little for much of the game, though he ended with a solid yardage total thanks to a long 48-yard grab early in the fourth quarter. Franklin has re-emerged in the Broncos' offense, recording 10 catches for 151 yards combined across the last two games. He should continue to see added opportunity if Bryant, who suffered a head injury in the game, is forced to miss Denver's Week 17 matchup Thursday.
