Tre Harris WR | LAC
Chargers' Tre' Harris: New career high in receiving yards
Harris caught four of his five targets for 54 yards in the 34-17 win over the Cowboys on Sunday.
The rookie set his career high in receiving yards (49) last week and immediately surpassed that the following game in large part due to the 34 receiving yards he tallied on the opening drive. Harris has effectively maintained a similar snap count week to week, and even in the event he sees his playing time jump, Houston's defense figures to present significant complications to Los Angeles' offense in the Week 17 contest.

Tee Higgins WR | CIN
Bengals' Tee Higgins: Hauls in TD in return
Higgins caught all three of his targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Dolphins.
Making his return from another one-game absence due to a concussion, Higgins made an immediate impact by connecting with Joe Burrow on a nine-yard TD in the first quarter. He's had to sit out two of the last three weeks while in the concussion protocol, but Higgins had has a nose for the end zone this season whenever he's been in the lineup, finding paydirt in six of his last seven appearances and hauling in 10 touchdowns in total over 13 games in 2025. His next score will set a new career high, a mark he'll look to reach in Week 17 against the Cardinals.

Patrick Mekari OT | JAC
Jaguars' Patrick Mekari: Questionable to return
Mekari (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup versus the Broncos, John Oehser of the Jaguars' official site reports.
Mekari suffered a back injury in the second quarter, making his status for the remainder of the game uncertain. Wyatt Milum should take over at right guard if Mekari ends up being unable to return.

Tyler Shough QB | NO
Saints' Tyler Shough: First 300-yard passing performance
Shough completed 32 of 39 pass attempts for 308 yards and a touchdown while rushing twice for eight yards in Sunday's 29-6 win over the Jets.
Shough posted the first 300-yard passing performance of his NFL career, pushing past his previous career high of 282 passing yards. The highlight of the rookie second-round pick's impressive performance was a 23-yard touchdown pass to Chris Olave in the third quarter, as Shough carried the offense with his arm while the Saints played with a depleted backfield. Shough and the Saints will take a three-game winning streak into an eminently winnable Week 17 road game against the Titans.

Ja'Marr Chase WR | CIN
Bengals' Ja'Marr Chase: Hits century mark in big win
Chase caught nine of 11 targets for 109 yards in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Dolphins.
The superstar wideout topped 100 receiving yards for the seventh time this season, and the third time in four games since Joe Burrow came off IR. During that four-game stretch, Chase has hauled in 31 passes on 49 targets for 395 yards but curiously hasn't gotten into the end zone once, and his TD drought stands at six games. He'll look to hit paydirt for the first time since Week 7 in a Week 17 clash with the Cardinals.

De'Von Achane RB | MIA
Dolphins' De'Von Achane: Long rushing TD in loss
Achane rushed 15 times for 81 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for nine yards in the Dolphins' 45-21 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.
The highlight of Achane's afternoon came on his 48-yard scoring scamper late in the first quarter, which served as his third-longest run of the season. Achane's touchdown was his eighth on the ground in 2025, with five of those coming within the last six contests. Achane also now has multiple catches in consecutive contests heading into a Week 17 home matchup against the Buccaneers next Sunday.

Ladd McConkey WR | LAC
Chargers' Ladd McConkey: Another touchdown in win
McConkey caught four of his six targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-17 win over the Cowboys.
McConkey will be hard-pressed to surpass his yardage total from last year given the litany of offensive line injuries Los Angeles has tried to survive, but the second-year wideout has quietly become a potent scoring threat -- he tallied his 13th regular-season touchdown of his career Sunday. The 24-year-old has yet to surpass 50 receiving yards since a stretch where he exceeded the mark in five consecutive games in Weeks 6-10. That directly coincides with the timing of the injury to Joe Alt (ankle) and bears keeping in mind for fantasy managers ahead of a difficult matchup against the Texans in Week 17.

Chase Brown RB | CIN
Bengals' Chase Brown: Finds paydirt three times in Miami
Brown carried the ball 12 times for 66 yards and a touchdown and caught all four of his targets for 43 yards and two more scores in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Dolphins.
All three of Brown's trips to the end zone came in the third quarter, making him the first player in the NFL this season with three TDs in the same period. It was the third time in 2025 that the third-year back has scored multiple touchdowns, but he's got only eight TDs in total (four rushing, four receiving) through 15 contests. Brown lines up for another juicy matchup in Week 17 against the Cardinals.

Tyrone Tracy Jr. RB | NYG
Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Tops 70 rushing yards in Week 16
Tracy rushed 16 times for 71 yards and caught both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Vikings.
Tracy reached the 70-yard threshold on the ground for the fourth time in six games. He had 16 carries to Devin Singletary's 11 while Jaxson Dart completed only seven passes and had just two carries in a quiet game for the rookie quarterback. Tracy's poised to maintain the lead-back role in the Giants' run-heavy offense in a Week 17 road game against the Raiders.
