Colston Loveland TE | CHI
Bears' Colston Loveland: Ascent continues in win
Loveland brought in four of five targets for 49 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 31-28 win over the Steelers on Sunday.
Loveland finished second in receptions and third in receiving yards for the Bears on the afternoon, and he also recorded the third touchdown reception of his career on a 12-yard grab late in the first half. Loveland's production has started to enjoy some stability, as he's now posted at least 40 receiving yards in four straight contests. The talented tight end next takes aim at the talented Eagles defense in a Week 13 road matchup on Black Friday.

Adoree' Jackson CB | PHI
Eagles' Adoree' Jackson: Concussion evaluation
Jackson is being evaluated for a possible concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
Jackson left during the third quarter and is now being evaluated by the league's independent neurologists for a potential concussion. Cooper DeJean has been moved to outside cornerback in Jackson's absence and Michael Carter has taken over the nickel position, Eliot Shorr-Parks of Sports Radio 94 WIP Philadelphia reports.

D'Andre Swift RB | CHI
Bears' D'Andre Swift: Forgettable day in win
Swift rushed eight times for 15 yards and brought in his only target for 14 yards in the Bears' 31-28 win over the Steelers on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.
As his final rushing line indicates, Swift was absolutely stonewalled on the ground, and to make matters worse, he also lost a fumble in Steelers territory early in the second quarter. The turnover didn't lead to any Pittsburgh points, but backfield mate Kyle Monangai notably outpaced Swift in carries by four and also scored a rushing touchdown. Whether the developments signal a changing of the guard remains to be seen, but both backs have a tough matchup against Swift's former Eagles squad on the road on Black Friday.

Kyle Monangai RB | CHI
Bears' Kyle Monangai: Records rush TD in win
Monangai rushed 12 times for 48 yards and a touchdown in the Bears' 31-28 win over the Steelers on Sunday.
Monangai's backfield mate D'Andre Swift gained just 15 yards on eight carries and also lost a fumble, leading to a bigger workload for the former. Monangai made good on the additional opportunity, recording a two-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter for his third consecutive game with a score. Monangai also encouragingly logged double-digit carries for the third time in four games, so he appears to have retained a serviceable role in the ground attack alongside Swift.

Xavier Worthy WR | KC
Chiefs' Xavier Worthy: More involved in OT win
Worthy caught four of eight targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over the Colts.
The reception and yardage totals were his best showing since Week 8, while the target volume was Worthy's highest since Week 5. The second-year speedster has gone five straight games without getting into the end zone, managing just an 18-195-0 line on 31 targets over that span, but Worthy will get a chance to break out against a shaky secondary in Week 13 during a Thanksgiving tilt against the Cowboys.

Travis Kelce TE | KC
Chiefs' Travis Kelce: Four catches against Colts
Kelce caught four of six targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over Indianapolis.
The yardage total was his lowest since Week 3, but Kelce did record at least four receptions for the fourth straight game, a stretch in which he's delivered a 23-299-2 line on 32 targets. The veteran tight end remains a key part of the Kansas City passing game at age 36, and Kelce could be busier in Week 13 during a Thanksgiving clash with the Cowboys.
-
Rashee Rice WR | KC
Chiefs' Rashee Rice: Busts out in OT win
Rice caught eight of 12 targets for 141 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over the Colts. He added a two-point conversion on a pass from Patrick Mahomes.
The dozen targets were a season high for Rice, who turned that elevated volume into the first 100-yard receiving game by a Kansas City wideout this season. Rice has put together a 34-394-3 line on 47 targets through five games since making his belated season debut, adding a fourth score on the ground, and he'll take plenty of momentum into a Thanksgiving clash with the Cowboys in Week 13.

Adonai Mitchell WR | NYJ
Jets' Adonai Mitchell: Catches just two of seven targets
Mitchell caught two of seven targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Ravens.
Mitchell has caught three of 13 targets in two appearances for the Jets. The 2024 second-round pick of the Colts is getting more opportunities with his new team after being included alongside two first-round draft picks in the trade that sent Sauce Gardner to Indianapolis, but Mitchell has struggled to convert his chances into production so far. Mitchell should continue to see significant playing time in Week 13 against the Falcons, as the Jets will remain without top wideout Garrett Wilson (knee), who is on injured reserve until at least Week 15.
-
Mason Taylor TE | NYJ
Jets' Mason Taylor: Three catches with Tyrod at QB
Taylor caught three of five targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Ravens.
Taylor didn't see a significant change in production as the Jets benched Justin Fields in favor of Tyrod Taylor (no relation to Mason) at quarterback. Tyrod will likely remain the starter against the Falcons in Week 13. The Jets' rookie tight end has recorded at least three catches in four of the past five games, and that stretch includes Taylor's lone touchdown catch.
-
Kareem Hunt RB | KC
Chiefs' Kareem Hunt: Tops century mark against Indy
Hunt carried the ball 30 times for 104 yards and a touchdown and caught all three of his targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 23-20 overtime win over the Colts.
The 30 totes were a career high for the veteran RB, as Kansas City committed to attacking Indianapolis' run defense with DeForest Buckner (neck) on IR. The strategy worked, as Hunt became the first KC player to reach 100 rushing yards this season, and he punctuated his big performance with a two-yard TD plunge in the fourth quarter that kicked off a comeback from a 20-9 deficit -- a score that extended his TD streak to four games. Isiah Pacheco (knee) could be ready to return in Week 13, but even if he does, Hunt figures to still have a significant role in the backfield in a Thanksgiving tilt against the Cowboys.
