  • Theo Johnson TE | NYG

    Giants' Theo Johnson: Leading receiver in Week 15 loss

    Johnson caught three of four targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 29-21 loss to the Commanders.

    The second-year tight end led the Giants in receiving yards on the day, as he topped 70 yards for the third time in the last five games. Johnson is quietly having a breakout campaign despite the struggles of the rest of the team, putting together a 45-528-5 line on 72 targets through 14 contests. He'll look to keep rolling in a Week 16 clash with the Vikings.

  • Caleb Williams QB | CHI

    Bears' Caleb Williams: Efficient in easy victory

    Williams completed 17 of 28 passes for 242 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 31-3 win over the Browns. He added three rushes for 13 yards.

    Williams had one of the more efficient showings of his career, averaging a solid 8.6 yards per attempt while also completing four passes of at least 20 yards. The highlight of his performance came on a 22-yard touchdown connection with DJ Moore, when Williams split two defenders on a throw to the corner of the end zone while fading away on a rollout midway through the third quarter. The only thing slowing Williams down was game script, as he attempted only 10 passes in the second half with the Bears up by three scores for most of that span. He now has multiple touchdowns in three of his last four games, with this marking his highest yardage total since Week 9.

  • Darius Slayton WR | NYG

    Giants' Darius Slayton: Four catches against Commanders

    Slayton caught four of 10 targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 29-21 loss to Washington.

    The 10 targets were a season high for Slayton, but the volume didn't lead to much production. The veteran wideout has a mediocre 30-460-1 line on 50 targets through 11 games on the season, giving him little fantasy appeal heading into a Week 16 meeting with the Vikings.

  • Abraham Lucas OT | SEA

    Seahawks' Abraham Lucas: Suffers shoulder injury

    Lucas (shoulder) is questionable to return to Seattle's matchup versus the Colts on Sunday.

    Lucas is currently being evaluated by the team's medical staff after sustaining a shoulder injury in the first half of Sunday's game. Josh Jones will take over at right tackle if Lucas ends up being unable to return.

  • Dallas Goedert TE | PHI

    Eagles' Dallas Goedert: Pair of TD catches Sunday

    Goedert brought in six of seven targets for 70 yards and two touchdowns in the Eagles' 31-0 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

    Goedert led the way for the Eagles in receptions, receiving yards, touchdown catches and targets on the afternoon, with both his scores coming on shovel passes near the goal line. The veteran tight end has seen his production ebb and flow this season, but he's on an upswing again after posting a 14-148-2 line on 17 targets over his last two games as a Saturday afternoon Week 16 matchup against a vulnerable Commanders defense approaches.

  • Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Snags TD in Week 15 loss

    Robinson caught five of 10 targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 29-21 loss to the Commanders.

    The fourth-year slot receiver connected with Jaxson Dart for a 16-yard TD in the fourth quarter as the Giants tried to mount a late comeback. Robinson has four touchdowns on the season, and two of them have come in the last three games, a stretch in which he's posted a 21-244-2 line on 32 targets. He'll look to keep rolling in Week 16 against the Vikings.

  • Giants' Devin Singletary: Quiet against Washington

    Singletary carried the ball five times for 13 yards and caught his only target for one yard in Sunday's 29-21 loss to the Commanders.

    The veteran RB led the backfield with 102 scrimmage yards and a score in Week 13 prior to the Giants' bye, but Singletary took a back seat to Tyrone Tracy (97 scrimmage yards and two TDs) in this one. Sunday's showing ended a stretch of three straight games in which Singletary had produced at least 40 rushing yards while making three trips to the end zone. He'll look to rebound in Week 16 against the Vikings.

  • Chiefs' Gardner Minshew: Replaces injured Mahomes in loss

    Minshew entered Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Chargers for an injured Patrick Mahomes (knee) with 1:53 remaining and completed three of five passes for 22 yards with no touchdowns and an interception.

    After Mahomes suffered an injury near the right sideline on an incomplete pass on the first play following the two-minute warning, Minshew was summoned for emergency duty in his first taste of regular-season action in 2025. Minshew proceeded to keep the Chiefs' last-gasp drive alive with completions of 11 and eight yards to Travis Kelce and a three-yard connection to Rashee Rice. However, the veteran signal-caller eventually hung the ball up on his fifth pass attempt, and Derwin James cut underneath Kelce to grab the interception and officially eliminate Kansas City from postseason contention in the process. With Mahomes set to undergo an MRI, per Adam Schefter of ESPN, and head coach Andy Reid not expressing optimism about the severity of the injury, Minshew appears likely to serve as the Chiefs' starting quarterback over the final three games of the regular season.

  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Two TDs in loss to Washington

    Tracy carried the ball 15 times for 70 yards and a touchdown and caught all three of his targets for 27 yards and a second TD in Sunday's 29-21 loss to the Commanders.

    One game after Devin Singletary led the Giants backfield with 102 scrimmage yards and a score, it was Tracy's turn to pop, as he ran for a 12-yard TD in the second quarter and caught an 18-yard toss from Jaxson Dart in the third. The two touchdowns were Tracy's first trips to the end zone since Week 7, when he recorded his only other score of the season. He'll try to build on this performance in Week 16 against the Vikings.

  • Mike Brown SAF | NE

    Titans' Mike Brown: Exits game with ankle injury

    Brown (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers.

    Brown appeared to sustain the injury in the first half, and he is being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. Xavier Woods (hamstring) is also questionable to return, so Kendell Brooks is poised for a larger role in the defense for as long as both Brown and Woods are sidelined.
