  • Texans' Derek Stingley: Scores first NFL TD

    Stingley recorded two tackles, one forced fumble and returned an interception for a touchdown in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Raiders.

    Stingley, who was tagged as questionable due to an oblique injury, made an impact early, giving the Texans a lead 4:17 into the first quarter when he returned an interception 31 yards for a touchdown. The pick-six was the first of his NFL career and his fourth interception of the season.

  • 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.

  • Cade Stover TE | HOU

    Texans' Cade Stover: Two grabs in win

    Stover caught two of three targets for seven yards in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Raiders in Week 16.

    Stover continued a support role at tight end behind starter Dalton Schultz. Since returning from a foot injury six games ago, Stover has seven catches (10 targets) for 45 yards. He's been given opportunities as a runner in short-yardage, red-zone situations the last three weeks, but that opportunity never presented itself Sunday.

  • Myles Garrett DE | LAR

    Browns' Myles Garrett: Moves closer to sack record

    Garrett record 0.5 sacks in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills in Week 16.

    The half-sack was the only tackle on which Garret was involved, but it moved him one step closer to the season record for sacks. He's up to 22.0 and needs another 1.0 sacks over the final two games to establish a new NFL season high. That pursuit will be one of the few on-field areas of interest as the Browns finish out a second consecutive double-digit loss season.

  • 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.

  • Andre Szmyt K | CLE

    Browns' Andre Szmyt: Makes all kicks in loss

    Szmyt was successful on two field-goal attempts and both of his extra-point tries in Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills in Week 16.

    The Browns' offense played about as well as it could, and it led to Szmyt recording eight points, his third most this season and best since Week 10. Unfortunately for Szmyt and Cleveland's offense, running back Quinshon Judkins suffered season-ending leg and ankle injuries, which will impact the kicker's opportunities to score going forward. He's been successful on 20 of 23 field-goal attempts and 22 of 23 extra-point kicks.

  • Mark Andrews TE | BAL

    Ravens' Mark Andrews: Another two catches

    Andrews recorded two receptions on three targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Patriots. He added one rush for three yards.

    Andrews made a long 18-yard catch late in the first quarter, but he largely disappeared from the game thereafter. He's now been held to two or fewer catches and 25 or fewer yards in four of his last five games. Andrews isn't likely to see a significant improvement in production in a tough Week 17 matchup against Green Bay, particularly if Lamar Jackson (back) remains sidelined.
