Corum took 11 carries for 71 yards and a touchdown without garnering a target in Sunday's 41-34 win over Detroit.

Corum kept up his recent string of hot play in fantasy by scoring his fifth touchdown of the season in the second half of Sunday's shootout win. Four of the five scores have come over the talented backup's last three appearances, a span in which he is also averaging 9.3 yards per carry. Kyren Williams (15-78-2) is still the lead back for the Rams, and Corum's value is being boosted by some favorable situations combined with unsustainable efficiency. Fantasy managers should continue to ride Corum's wave of production while also being aware that his touches are capped while sitting behind Williams on the depth chart.

Pickens recorded three receptions on six targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Vikings.

Pickens was scrutinized throughout the week after a poor Week 14 performance, and he didn't fare any better in Sunday night's loss to the Vikings. His six targets were his fewest since Week 7, and his yardage was his lowest since Week 1. A Week 16 matchup against the Chargers isn't the ideal matchup for him to get back on track, though Pickens has managed to excel in tough matchups throughout the season.

Addison brought in both of his targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.

Addison made his mark on Sunday Night Football when he took a deep pass from QB J.J. McCarthy 58 yards down the field in the second quarter of the win over Dallas. This was a great sign for fantasy managers after the wideout was dealing with a minor Achilles injury during the practice week. The 66 yards marked Addison's highest receiving total since Week 7, highlighting a potential return to form as McCarthy's play improves down the stretch. A soft matchup against the Giants' secondary next Sunday should help Addison generate value as a flex option in Week 16.

Williams rushed the ball 15 times for 91 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Vikings.

Williams picked up 13 yards and a touchdown on the Cowboys' first offensive possession, but he then sat out the rest of the first half with a shoulder injury. While he rotated with Malik Davis more than usual in the second half, Williams managed to run and put together a good showing with chunk gains of 21, 15 and 11 yards in the final two quarters. After averaging only 3.4 yards per carry combined across the last two games, this was a solid bounceback effort for Williams, particularly considering he almost certainly wasn't playing at 100 percent.

Nailor corralled three of five targets for 47 yards and a pair of touchdowns while losing two yards on his only carry in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.

Nailor came up a bit lame after making an incredible grab on his first touchdown scored Sunday. The 26-year-old was grounded for a while after absorbing a hard landing on the catch, but he managed to stay in the game and produced a second touchdown grab in the fourth quarter to help seal the victory for Minnesota. It was the first multi-score game of Nailor's career and it doubled his total from his previous 13 games this season, so fantasy managers shouldn't read too much into Sunday's outburst. Nailor and his 26-395-4 receiving line remain only a deep-league option for Week 16.

Prescott completed 23 of 38 passes for 294 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Vikings. He added one rush for two yards.

Prescott led the Cowboys' offense effectively for most of the game, but the unit continuously stalled in the red zone. The team managed only two touchdowns, both of which came on the ground, on five trips inside the red zone. That led to Prescott's third scoreless game of the season, and he also fell short of 300 passing yards for the first time in his last three matchups. Prescott's track record suggests he'll bounce back in Week 16 against the Chargers, but he'll draw another tough matchup.

Jones took 12 carries for 34 yards while catching all three of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.

Jones has been limited in recent practice weeks with a nagging shoulder injury picked up back in Week 9, but it has yet to affect the veteran's workload or status once game days roll around. Backup Jordan Mason (10-29-0) continues to split backfield duties with Jones, giving both runners modest fantasy value as flex options on a weekly basis. It wouldn't be surprising to see Jones limited in practice again in Week 16, but managers should prepare to deploy Minnesota's veteran starter in a plus matchup against the Giants next Sunday.

Bech brought in two of three targets for 17 yards in the Raiders' 31-0 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.

Despite his very modest numbers, Bech was more involved than Tre Tucker, who failed to come up with any of his three targets. Bech also finished with just 11 fewer yards than team leader Brock Bowers, as spot starter Kenny Pickett averaged just 2.6 yards per attempt while throwing for 64 yards. Bech could be due for a boost in opportunity in a Week 16 road matchup against the Texans next Sunday if Geno Smith can return from his shoulder injury and/or Tyler Lockett isn't able to suit up due to the wrist injury that he suffered in the second half of Sunday's loss.

Lamb recorded six catches on 10 targets for 111 yards in Sunday's 34-26 loss to Minnesota.

The Cowboys' pass catchers almost universally disappointed in Sunday night's loss, with Lamb being the only exception. He paced the team in every statistical category while commanding double-digit targets for the sixth time in 11 games this season. Lamb was efficient with the opportunity primarily due to a pair of 30-yard receptions, and he topped 100 receiving yards for the third straight game.

McCarthy completed 15 of 24 pass attempts for 250 yards, two touchdowns and one interception while taking four carries for 15 yards and a third score in Sunday's 34-26 win over Dallas.

McCarthy has been playing inspired ball since returning from his second layoff due to injury this season. The 22-year-old has generated six touchdowns (five passing) in the two games since returning from a concussion in Week 14, earning his club wins in both starts. His struggles getting top WR Justin Jefferson (2-22-0) involved on offense continued, but at least the young signal-caller has corrected his own inconsistent play from earlier in the schedule. Fantasy managers still struggling to find options at the quarterback position this late in the season should take a look at McCarthy in a soft matchup against the Giants next Sunday.
