Coby Bryant CB | CHI
Seahawks' Coby Bryant: Ices game with fourth INT
Bryant recorded three tackles (two solo) and an interception in Sunday' 18-16 win over the Colts.
Bryant intercepted a deep pass from Philip Rivers with just 11 seconds left in the fourth quarter to secure the win for the Seahawks. This was Bryant's fourth interception of the season, marking a career high in the category. The Cincinnati product is in the final year of his rookie contract but is making a strong case to stick with the team long term.

Gardner Minshew QB | ARI
Chiefs' Gardner Minshew: Set to start rest of season
Minshew will start at quarterback the remainder of the 2025 campaign for Kansas City after an MRI confirmed Monday that Patrick Mahomes suffered a season-ending ACL tear in his left knee during Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Chargers.
Minshew entered Sunday's contest with 1:53 remaining in the fourth quarter, completing three of five throws for 22 yards with zero touchdowns and one interception in what amounted to his first pass attempts of the season. The veteran signal-caller will close out the Chiefs' final three games under center, with matchups looming on the road in Tennessee in Week 16, at home versus Denver in Week 17 and on the road in Las Vegas in Week 18. Minshew is playing out the season on a one-year contract, so if he's able to impress down the stretch it could improve his chances of re-signing with Kansas City. Across 10 appearances with the Raiders in 2024, Minshew completed 203 of 306 pass attempts for 2,013 yards, nine touchdowns and 10 interceptions.

Cody White WR | SEA
Seahawks' Cody White: No targets in win
White wasn't targeted in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Colts.
QB Sam Darnold threw the ball 36 times in this game, but White couldn't get into the rotation while playing just nine offensive snaps. The 27-year-old wide receiver has caught three passes for 90 yards and a touchdown over eight games this season.

Lil'Jordan Humphrey WR | DEN
Broncos' Lil'Jordan Humphrey: Finds end zone against Packers
Humphrey caught three of four targets for 42 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers.
Humphrey's trip to the end zone Sunday was his first touchdown of the 2025 campaign. The 27-year-old wideout played 46 of the Broncos' 68 offensive snaps against the Packers, behind just Courtland Sutton (60) and ahead of Troy Franklin (34), Marvin Mims (21) and Michael Bandy (two). Humphrey's jump to a 68 percent snap share coincided with rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant missing the contest with a hamstring injury. The veteran wideout could play a significant role again in Week 16 if Bryant continues to miss time, but the severity of the hamstring issue remains unclear. Nonetheless, Humphrey would be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes in a Week 16 matchup against the Jaguars, as quarterback Bo Nix tends to spread the ball around to several pass catchers each week.

Eric Saubert TE | SEA
Seahawks' Eric Saubert: One target in win
Saubert caught his lone target for nine yards in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Colts.
Saubert handled a 36 percent snap share even though rookie TE Elijah Arroyo (knee) is on injured reserve. With just two catches through eight games, it's clear that Saubert is considered a blocking tight end in the Seahawks' system.

AJ Barner TE | SEA
Seahawks' AJ Barner: Touchdown drought continues
Barner caught three of six targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 18-16 win over the Colts.
Barner has been targeted 19 times over the last four weeks, turning in 12 receptions for 107 yards and no touchdowns. After starting the season with four touchdowns through the first five games, Barner has been kept out of the end zone for nine straight contests. The second-year tight end remains the Seahawks' clear No. 1 at the position however, especially with rookie Elijah Arroyo (knee) done for the rest of the regular season.

Jaleel McLaughlin RB | DEN
Broncos' Jaleel McLaughlin: Minimal usage in win
McLaughlin rushed two times for four yards in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers.
McLaughlin continued to operate as Denver's No. 2 running back while playing just nine of the Broncos' 68 offensive snaps against Green Bay. Meanwhile, teammate RJ Harvey dominated the running back snap share, playing 46 snaps in the contest. The 25-year-old McLaughlin does not hold much fantasy value based on his limited usage in Denver's offense, though he remains a solid insurance policy if Harvey were to be sidelined by an injury down the stretch. Up next for the Broncos is a Week 16 home matchup against the Jaguars.

Jaylon Johnson CB | CHI
Bears' Jaylon Johnson: Picks off pass in victory
Johnson recorded one solo tackle and one interception in the Bears' 31-3 win over the Browns on Sunday.
Johnson is averaging 1.5 tackles per game this season, and this interception was his first of the year. With minimal tackle production, he remains off the IDP radar unless his usage or involvement increases.
