Woerner caught both of his targets for 12 yards in Thursday night's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers.

Woerner wasn't targeted in either of the Falcons' last two games, but he finished with the fifth-most receiving yards on the team during Thursday night's win. The 28-year-old has appeared in all 14 of Atlanta's contests this season, catching seven of eight targets for 45 yards across 417 offensive snaps. He's expected to remain a depth option in the team's tight-end corps in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.

Coach Andy Reid said Friday that he doesn't expect Brown (personal) to suit up Sunday against the Chargers, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

Brown has been tending to a personal matter this week that didn't allow him to practice Wednesday before he returned in a limited practice one day later. Assuming Brown is unavailable for Week 15 action, the Chiefs will lean on Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Tyquan Thornton at wide receiver Sunday.

Kamara (knee/ankle) isn't practicing Friday, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.

Kamara hasn't practiced since suffering an MCL sprain in Week 12. Devin Neal (abdomen) likely will fill in as the Saints' starting RB again this Sunday against the Panthers, after topping a 70 percent snap share in both of the past two games.

Jennings (concussion) wasn't spotted at Friday's practice, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

The Florida A&M product was unable to practice all week, so it's unlikely that he'll be able to suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Bills. Both Craig Reynolds and D'Ernest Johnson are candidates to be elevated from the Patriots' practice squad to the active roster if Jennings is sidelined in Week 15 as expected.

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that Mauigoa (neck) is ruled out for Sunday's game against Jacksonville,

Mauigoa will miss at least one game due to the neck injury he suffered Week 14 against Miami, which had been initially diagnosed a shoulder issue. Kobe King and Mykal Walker will stand to handle increased defensive snaps for as long as Mauigoa remains sidelined.

Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said Friday that Daniels (elbow) hasn't been cleared for contact, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

Daniels will miss his seventh game of the season Sunday against the Giants, but Quinn hasn't ruled the second-year quarterback out beyond Week 15 and once again suggested that he won't be shut down for the season unless he's truly unable to play. In any case, Marcus Mariota will fill in for Daniels once again Sunday.

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said Friday that Thomas (shoulder) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

Thomas suffered a shoulder injury Week 14 against the Dolphins but managed to retake the field and finish out that contest, so it's somewhat surprising to see him unable to play versus Jacksonville. Qwan'tez Stiggers and Ja'Sir Taylor will be candidates to inherit substantial roles on defense for as long as Thomas remains sidelined.

Thibodeaux (shoulder) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

Thibodeaux hasn't suited up since Week 10 versus the Bears, and even coming out of New York's bye in Week 14, there's not yet any indication that he's close to retaking the field. As long as Thibodeaux remains sidelined, rookie first-round pick Abdul Carter will operate as one of the Giants' top pass rushers alongside Brian Burns.

Wilson will operate as Arizona's top wide receiver versus the Texans on Sunday, with Marvin Harrison (heel) ruled out, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

Wilson has dominated across the three games Harrison has missed since Week 11, finishing with double-digit catches and over 100 yards receiving in all three of those contests. Versus the Rams in Week 14, Wilson tallied a 11-142-2 line on 16 targets, with almost all of quarterback Jacoby Brissett's production being split between himself and tight end Trey McBride. While Wilson now faces a rough road matchup against Houston, Wilson seems assured of massive target volume for as long as Harrison is sidelined, making it difficult to consider him anything less than a WR1 for fantasy purposes.

Mooney secured three of six targets for 35 yards during Thursday's 29-28 win over Tampa Bay.

Mooney played 92 offensive snaps with Drake London (knee) sidelined again, but he was outpaced in the receiving game by all of Kyle Pitts (11-166-3), Bijan Robinson (8-82-0) and David Sills (6-78-0). Across 12 regular-season appearances so far, Mooney has surpassed 50 receiving yards on just two occasions. He'll remain difficult to trust for fantasy purposes Week 16 on the road against Arizona, even if London is unavailable again.
