Ruckert caught two of three targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Dolphins.

Ruckert has registered multiple catches in consecutive games for the first time this season. He remains a distant second on the depth chart behind Mason Taylor, and Ruckert has yet to exceed 28 yards in a game in 2025.

Jones is feared to have suffered a torn right Achilles that will require surgery, but confirmation will come Monday, Mike Chappell of Fox 59 News Indianapolis reports.

Jones suffered a non-contact lower-leg injury in the first quarter of Sunday's 36-19 loss to Jacksonville, and he is now likely slated to miss the remainder of the season as a result. The quarterback was in the midst of a resurgent campaign with Indianapolis, but it unfortunately appears headed toward a premature end. Riley Leonard replaced Jones at quarterback in Week 14, but Anthony Richardson (orbital) could be in the picture as well to start for the Colts when/if he's able to return to action.

Morris (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday night's game against the Texans.

The offensive lineman was making his first start of 2025, at left tackle, as Jawaan Taylor's elbow injury forced Jaylon Moore to move over to right tackle. Esa Pole is in at left tackle in place of Morris.

Nacua finished with seven receptions on 11 targets for 167 yards and a pair of touchdowns in Sunday's 45-17 blowout win over Arizona.

Nacua absolutely went off against the Cardinals' secondary Sunday, averaging a whopping 23.9 yards per reception in the one-sided victory. The BYU product fell just short of the high-water mark of 170 yards he posted back in Week 4, but he still finished with his highest fantasy score to date in 2025 after producing his first multi-score game of the season. Nacua has taken a backseat to co-star WR Davante Adams (4-29-0) at times, but the inverse was true in Week 14. The 24-year-old Nacua just matched his previous career high of six touchdown receptions from his standout rookie campaign, and he currently sits seven catches shy of a second 100-reception season. Fantasy managers should continue to roll out Nacua with confidence for next Sunday's potential shootout against the Lions.

Loveland caught four passes on five targets for 29 yards and a touchdown during the Bears' 28-21 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

Loveland didn't see his first target until the final minute of the second quarter, when he hauled in an 11-yard pass from Caleb Williams. Loveland was more active in the second half, and he helped tie things up at 21-21 with a one-yard touchdown pass from Williams. Loveland finished second on the Bears in targets behind Luther Burden (six), and the rookie tight end has recorded four catches or more in four of his last six games. The Michigan tight end has a 35-435-4 line on 49 targets through 12 regular-season games.

Doubs failed to haul in either of his two targets during the Packers' 28-21 win over the Bears on Sunday.

Doubs' role in the offense fizzled in Week 14, no doubt in large part due to the return of Jayden Reed from injured reserve. It is worth noting that Jordan Love targeted 10 different pass catchers, and no Packers player saw more than four targets during Sunday's game. It was the first time Doubs failed to record a catch this season, and the third-year wide receiver sits at a 45-542-5 line on 73 targets through 13 regular-season games. He'll look to bounce back in Week 15 against the Broncos on Sunday, Dec. 14.

Stafford completed 22 of 31 pass attempts for 281 yards and three touchdowns in Sunday's 45-17 rout of the Cardinals.

Stafford wasted no time getting back to his MVP-bid form after uncharacteristically committing three turnovers in last week's surprising loss to Carolina. The 37-year-old extended his streak of throwing multiple touchdown passes to seven games while making an example of Arizona's secondary. With 35 touchdowns thrown through 13 weeks, Stafford has nearly built a double-digit margin between himself and Dak Prescott/Jared Goff (26) for the league lead in the category. The fantasy star is already producing at a high level as the playoff schedule approaches, but Stafford may find added motivation playing against the club that drafted him in 2009 when the Rams host the Lions next Sunday.

Jacobs handled 20 carries for 86 yards and a touchdown while grabbing both of his targets for six yards in Sunday's 28-21 win over the Bears.

Jacobs was limited early in the practice week with the same knee injury he picked up in Week 12 before being cleared of the designation with a full practice Friday. The 27-year-old showed no limitations while handling 20 out of 23 backfield carries in the win over Chicago. Jacobs' touchdown run in the fourth quarter was the talented runner's 12th trip to the end zone on the season and first since Week 10. With his health back in order, Jacobs is shaping up to be an RB1 for fantasy managers as the playoff schedule approaches.

Lawrence completed 17 of 30 passes for 244 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 36-19 win over the Colts. He added 16 yards on four carries.

The Jaguars had a relatively easy win after Daniel Jones (Achilles) exited Sunday's game, but Lawrence managed to get his numbers early. He completed four passes of at least 25 yards, three of which came in the first two quarters, while also tallying touchdown throws of 14 and seven yards. While he attempted only 10 passes in the second half, Lawrence managed his third consecutive multi-score game while also reaching at least 225 passing yards for the third consecutive contest.

Golden (wrist) failed to bring in his only target in Sunday's 28-21 win over Chicago.

Golden fell out of favor after returning from a two-game layoff due to a wrist injury. The first-round rookie watched six teammates finish with higher target counts in the win. This was the concern regarding Golden's usage now that Green Bay's receiver room is back at full strength. Jayden Reed (foot/shoulder) was activated from injured reserve prior to Sunday's contest and was far more involved than Golden, making the former the more desirable Packers' returning receiver to go after on the wire ahead of next Sunday's tilt against Denver.
