Loveland caught four passes on five targets for 29 yards and a touchdown during the Bears' 28-21 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Loveland didn't see his first target until the final minute of the second quarter, when he hauled in an 11-yard pass from Caleb Williams. Loveland was more active in the second half, and he helped tie things up at 21-21 with a one-yard touchdown pass from Williams. Loveland finished second on the Bears in targets behind Luther Burden (six), and the rookie tight end has recorded four catches or more in four of his last six games. The Michigan tight end has a 35-435-4 line on 49 targets through 12 regular-season games.

Doubs failed to haul in either of his two targets during the Packers' 28-21 win over the Bears on Sunday.

Doubs' role in the offense fizzled in Week 14, no doubt in large part due to the return of Jayden Reed from injured reserve. It is worth noting that Jordan Love targeted 10 different pass catchers, and no Packers player saw more than four targets during Sunday's game. It was the first time Doubs failed to record a catch this season, and the third-year wide receiver sits at a 45-542-5 line on 73 targets through 13 regular-season games. He'll look to bounce back in Week 15 against the Broncos on Sunday, Dec. 14.

Stafford completed 22 of 31 pass attempts for 281 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 45-17 rout of the Cardinals.

Stafford wasted no time getting back to his MVP-bid form after uncharacteristically committing three turnovers in last week's surprising loss to Carolina. The 37-year-old extended his streak of throwing multiple touchdown passes to seven games while making an example of Arizona's secondary. With 35 touchdowns thrown through 13 weeks, Stafford has nearly built a double-digit margin between himself and Dak Prescott/Jared Goff (26) for the league lead in the category. The fantasy star is already producing at a high level as the playoff schedule approaches, but Stafford may find added motivation playing against the club that drafted him in 2009 when the Rams host the Lions next Sunday.

Jacobs handled 20 carries for 86 yards and a touchdown while grabbing both of his targets for six yards in Sunday's 28-21 win over the Bears.

Jacobs was limited early in the practice week with the same knee injury he picked up in Week 12 before being cleared of the designation with a full practice Friday. The 27-year-old showed no limitations while handling 20 out of 23 backfield carries in the win over Chicago. Jacobs' touchdown run in the fourth quarter was the talented runner's 12th trip to the end zone on the season and first since Week 10. With his health back in order, Jacobs is shaping up to be an RB1 for fantasy managers as the playoff schedule approaches.

Lawrence completed 17 of 30 passes for 244 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 36-19 win over the Colts. He added 16 yards on four carries.

The Jaguars had a relatively easy win after Daniel Jones (Achilles) exited Sunday's game, but Lawrence managed to get his numbers early. He completed four passes of at least 25 yards, three of which came in the first two quarters, while also tallying touchdown throws of 14 and seven yards. While he attempted only 10 passes in the second half, Lawrence managed his third consecutive multi-score game while also reaching at least 225 passing yards for the third consecutive contest.

Golden (wrist) failed to bring in his only target in Sunday's 28-21 win over Chicago.

Golden fell out of favor after returning from a two-game layoff due to a wrist injury. The first-round rookie watched six teammates finish with higher target counts in the win. This was the concern regarding Golden's usage now that Green Bay's receiver room is back at full strength. Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) was activated from injured reserve prior to Sunday's contest and was far more involved than Golden, making the former the more desirable Packers' returning receiver to go after on the wire ahead of next Sunday's tilt against Denver.

Pickett completed eight of 11 passes for 97 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Broncos. He added one rush for six yards.

Pickett played the entire fourth quarter in relief of Geno Smith, who exited with a shoulder injury. The former led two garbage-time drives with the Raiders down three and two scores, respectively, showing good rapport with Jack Bech while also hitting Shedrick Jackson for a 25-yard score. This was Pickett's third appearance of the season, by far his most prolonged, and he could be in line to start in Week 15 against the Eagles pending the severity of Smith's injury.

Morris will start at left tackle against the Texans on Sunday, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

Morris has played 17 offensive snaps in three of the Chiefs' last five games as a depth option on the offensive line. With Jawaan Taylor (elbow) sidelined, Jaylon Moore will shift over to right tackle for Sunday's game, which opens the door for Morris to serve as Kansas City's starting left tackle.

Moore will serve as the Chiefs' starting right tackle against the Texans on Sunday, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

With Jawaan Taylor (elbow) inactive, Moore will serve at right tackle while Wanya Morris starts at left tackle.

Reed (foot/shoulder) had four receptions on as many targets for 31 yards while taking two carries for 22 yards in Sunday's 28-21 win over the Bears.

Reed made a successful return to action Sunday after a pair of early-season injuries that required surgery kept him sidelined since Week 2. The 25-year-old finished in a three-way tie for the team lead in targets, which bodes well for his usage moving forward. The versatile receiver logged his first carries of the season after posting a 31-282-3 rushing line across his rookie and sophomore campaigns. With a sizeable role and good health in tow, Reed should find himself back on the fantasy map for next Sunday's tilt against the Broncos.
