  • Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Reaches 100 yards

    Sutton recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 113 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers.

    The Broncos have spread targets around for much of the season, but Sutton was the key pass catcher in Sunday's win. He led the team with 10 targets, his fourth time hitting that mark this season. Sutton delivered several splash plays with that opportunity, including gains of 42 and 26 yards as well as a 14-yard touchdown reception. That helped him top 100 receiving yards for the first time since Week 3 while falling only five yards short of his season high.

    Lions' Jahmyr Gibbs: Muted in loss to Rams

    Gibbs rushed 13 times for 38 yards while catching four of seven targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams.

    Gibbs was shut down by the Rams' ninth-ranked rush defense Sunday, resulting in a rare dud from the fantasy stud. Backfield mate David Montgomery (7-32-1) cashed in Detroit's lone rushing score in the loss, adding salt to the wounds of Gibbs' fantasy managers in Week 15. It was the third time this season that Gibbs was held to under 60 yards from scrimmage with no trips to the end zone. That said, he has still generated over 1,500 combined yards and 16 total touchdowns across 14 appearances in 2025. Look for Gibbs to get back on track in a home matchup against the Steelers next Sunday.

  • Jake Bates K | DET

    Lions' Jake Bates: Misses field goal in loss

    Bates went 2-of-3 on field-goal tries and 4-of-4 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's 41-34 loss to the Rams.

    The kicker missed a 43-yard attempt wide left in the first quarter that would have opened the scoring. Bates has now missed more field goals, five, in 2025, than he did in the entire 2024 regular season (three), and he's done so in four fewer games and on five fewer attempts (29 to 24).

  • Saints' Charlie Smyth: Converts game-winning kick

    Smyth went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and made both of his PATs in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Panthers.

    Smyth was elevated from the practice squad to serve as the Saints' starting kicker for the third straight week, making field goals from 42 and 47 yards in the second half, the latter of which gave New Orleans the lead with two seconds left in regulation. The rookie has now gone 4-for-5 on field-goal tries, including a successful 56-yarder, over three contests with the Saints this season.

  • Rams' Harrison Mevis: Nails two FGAs in win

    Mevis went 2-for-2 on field-goal tries and made all five of his PATs in Sunday's 41-34 win over the Lions.

    Mevis was able to make multiple field goals for the second time this season, connecting on a 37-yarder in the second quarter before adding a make from 44 yards in the third. The kicker has now gone 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts, including a 52-yarder, over six games with the Rams this year.

  • Bo Nix QB | DEN

    Broncos' Bo Nix: Throws four touchdowns

    Nix completed 23 of 34 passes for 302 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Packers. He added seven rushes for 10 yards.

    Nix topped 300 passing yards in a game for the third time this season, highlighted by five completions of at least 20 yards. Two of those went for touchdowns -- including a 23-yard strike over the middle of the field to Troy Franklin as the third quarter expired that gave the Broncos a lead they wouldn't relinquish. He also tacked on a pair of additional touchdown passes from five and 14 yards away to match his season high. Considering the strength of Green Bay's defense, this was one of Nix's most impressive showings of the season, particularly considering he hadn't accounted for multiple scores since Week 9.

  • Rams' Matthew Stafford: Earns win over former club

    Stafford completed 24 of 38 pass attempts for 368 yards, two touchdowns and an interception while gaining two yards on one carry in Sunday's 41-34 win over the Lions.

    Stafford shook off the interception he threw on the Rams' opening drive in order to lift his current club to victory over the team that took him first overall in the 2009 NFL Draft. It was the third time this season that the veteran gunslinger eclipsed 350 passing yards as he continues to show no signs of slowing down. The only concern lies with star WR Davante Adams (hamstring), who aggravated his nagging hamstring injury in the fourth quarter and did not return to the contest. If Adams is unable to make the short turnaround for Thursday's tilt against the Seahawks, then Stafford may be forced to lean heavily on WR Puka Nacua in a tough road environment for Week 16.

  • 49ers' Eddy Pineiro: Makes three field goals in win

    Pineiro went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made all four of his PATs in Sunday's 37-24 win over the Titans.

    Pineiro made his return to action after missing two contests with a right hamstring injury, making a 33-yard field goal in the second quarter before adding makes from 37 and 40 yards in the fourth. The kicker has now gone a perfect 25-for-25 on field-goal tries, including 6-for-6 from 50-plus yards, over 11 games with the 49ers this season.

  • Blake Grupe K | IND

    Colts' Blake Grupe: Makes 60-yard field goal

    Grupe connected on all three field-goal attempts, including a 60-yarder, and his only extra-point try in Sunday's 18-16 loss to the Seahawks.

    The 60-yard field goal briefly gave Indianapolis a one-point lead with less than a minute to play, though Seattle drove back down for a clutch field goal of its own to win it. Grupe also made a 54-yarder and a 42-yarder in this one, as he stayed perfect across two games with the Colts since replacing Michael Badgley. Though Grupe missed eight field goals in 11 games with the Saints earlier in the year, he seems to have found his groove with his new team.

  • Packers' Brandon McManus: Makes every kick Sunday

    McManus hit all four field-goal tries and both extra-point attempts in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Broncos.

    McManus connected on field goals from 53, 26, 35 and 37 yards, respectively. Though he missed six field goals earlier in the season, the kicker has now made eight in a row since returning to the lineup following a Week 11 quadriceps injury.
