  • Jamari Thrash WR | CLE

    Browns' Jamari Thrash: Targeted once in loss

    Thrash couldn't haul in his lone target in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets in Week 10.

    Cedric Tillman's return from the injured list impacted several of Cleveland's depth wideouts including Thrash, who had multiple targets over the previous three games. The Browns' passing game is not at a point where it can feed multiple receivers with ample targets, meaning players like Thrash, Malachi Corley (one target) and Gage Larvadain (one) should not offer much fantasy value.

  • Malachi Corley WR | CLE

    Browns' Malachi Corley: Afforded one target in loss

    Corley failed to catch his lone target, had two carries for 32 yards and returned one kickoff for 22 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets in Week 10.

    Cleveland's passing attack under rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel isn't strong enough to support fringe receivers like Corley. Cedric Tillman's return from injury also impacted the depth wideouts Sunday and Corley's 20 snaps were in line with Jamari Thrash (22) and Gage Larvadain (18). Corley has been effective as a runner however, ripping off two 16-yard gains Sunday while averaging 18.5 yards over four carries this season.

  • Jerome Ford RB | WAS

    Browns' Jerome Ford: Garners one touch in loss

    Ford had one carry for one yard and failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets in Week 10.

    Ford's fall behind rookie Dylan Sampson continued, as the veteran has just two carries and three receptions (five targets) over the last three weeks. He's also fallen out of consideration for return duties, which now belong to Sampson.

  • Dylan Sampson RB | CLE

    Browns' Dylan Sampson: Clear No. 2 back

    Sampson had two carries for minus-4 yards and caught his lone target for three yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Jets in Week 10. He also had four kickoff returns for 104 yards.

    The Browns' backfield clearly belongs to Quinshon Judkins, while Sampson has emerged as the No. 2 back ahead of veteran Jerome Ford. For the second consecutive game, Sampson was given more opportunities (22 snaps, three touches, three targets) than Ford (14, one, one). Cleveland has accepted its fate and is looking toward the future, which means a focus on youth for the remainder of a season. Should Judkins get injured, Sampson could earn more than just a handful of touches per game, but for now his fantasy utility is mainly limited to formats that value return yards.

  • Kalif Raymond WR | CHI

    Lions' Kalif Raymond: Four catches in win

    Raymond caught all four of his targets for 49 yards and had a 10-yard rush in Sunday's 44-22 win over the Commanders.

    Raymond posted season highs in both receptions and receiving yards in Week 10 after he had reeled in just three of four targets for 17 total yards over the team's last four games. The wide receiver remains the team's No. 3 option at his position behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, and considering Sunday represented high-water marks for 31-year-old, his fantasy value remains rather low.

  • Greg Dulcich TE | MIA

    Dolphins' Greg Dulcich: Makes most of only catch

    Dulcich secured one of four targets for 22 yards during Miami's 30-13 win over the Bills on Sunday.

    Dulcich worked as the Dolphins' clear top receiving tight end with Julian Hill (ankle) inactive, Darren Waller (quadriceps) on IR and Tanner Conner having been waived earlier in Week 10. His modest production can be partially attributed to Tua Tagovailoa turning in his fifth performance of the season with less than 200 passing yards and instead being able to lean on the Dolphins' surprising defensive resurgence and running back De'Von Achane, who exceeded 200 scrimmage yards and scored twice. In deeper formats, it could be worth looking Dulcich's way again in Week 11 versus the Commanders if Hill is again unavailable.

  • Dolphins' Ollie Gordon: Works as No. 3 back

    Gordon carried the ball once for minus-3 yards during Sunday's 30-13 win over the Bills.

    Gordon was active Sunday despite entering the contest officially listed as questionable due to an ankle injury, but he ceded the No. 2 role to Jaylen Wright, who rushed five times for 17 yards. As has been the case all season, however, it was De'Von Achane who stood out as the offensive engine of the Dolphins' upset divisional win, rushing 22 times for 174 yards and two scores and securing all six of his targets for another 51 receiving yards. Gordon will likely reclaim the top backup gig Week 11 versus the Commanders in Madrid as long as he's back to full health, but Achane's dominance hasn't left much room for any other running back on the roster to emerge as a fantasy contributor.

  • 49ers' Brian Robinson: Scores in consecutive games

    Robinson took eight carries for 41 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for four yards in Sunday's 42-26 loss to the Rams.

    Robinson kept his hot play going with another touchdown following his best game of the season against the Giants (5-53-1). The veteran backup actually finished as San Francisco's leading rusher on a day when starter Christian McCaffrey struggled on the ground (2.5 YPC). Robinson maintains a serious cap on touches so long as McCaffrey remains upright. Only desperate managers in deeper formats should consider starting Robinson against the Cardinals next Sunday.

  • Jaylen Wright RB | MIA

    Dolphins' Jaylen Wright: Works as No. 2 back in upset win

    Wright carried the ball five times for 17 yards during Miami's 30-13 win over the Bills on Sunday.

    Wright operated as the No. 2 option behind De'Von Achane in Week 10, as Ollie Gordon, who entered the contest questionable due to an ankle issue, rushed just once for minus-3 yards. If Gordon is fully healthy to face the Commanders overseas in Madrid in Week 11, he figures to reclaim the top backup role behind Achane, but it was nonetheless encouraging to see Wright active for the third time in the last four weeks, after he had been a healthy scratch to begin the season. Of course, Achane -- who racked up 225 yards from scrimmage and two scores on 28 touches -- remains the sole dominant fantasy contributor in the Dolphins' backfield.

  • Roman Wilson WR | PIT

    Steelers' Roman Wilson: Catches garbage-time TD

    Wilson recorded two receptions on three targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 25-10 loss to the Chargers.

    Wilson's three targets were his second-highest mark of the season, though nearly the entirety of his production came in garbage time. He caught a pass from Aaron Rodgers over the middle before turning upfield for a 27-yard score with three minutes remaining in a three-score game to tally his second career touchdown. Wilson has shown occasional signs of progress this season, but he remains a peripheral part of the offense.
