Fairbairn successfully converted six of six field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 38-30 win over Indianapolis.

Fairbairn, who tied a franchise record for field goals in a single game, upped his season total to 44 field goals, which tied an NFL single-season record set by David Akers in 2011 for the 49ers. Fairbairn, who missed two games in 2025 due to injury, converted 44 of 48 attempts (91.6 percent) and all 28 of his extra-point tries in 2025. He finished second in the NFL scoring with 160 points, behind only Seattle's Jason Myers (171).

Noel caught his lone target for 13 yards and returned one kickoff for six yards in Sunday's 38-30 win over the Colts in Week 18.

Noel finished with one or fewer receptions for the 11th time in 17 games. He's clearly fifth on the wideout depth chart, but the rookie is set as the team's top punt returner as Houston prepares for the playoffs beginning next Monday in Pittsburgh. Noel finished the 2025 regular season with 26 catches on 35 targets for 292 yards and two touchdowns. He also topped the Texans by averaging 10.8 yards over 31 punt returns.

Kirk caught one of two targets for minus-3 yards in Sunday's 38-30 win over Indianapolis in Week 18.

Kirk had the third-most snaps (39) among Houston's wideouts, finishing behind Jayden Higgins (55) and Xavier Hutchinson (54) while Nico Collins was a healthy inactive. A charitable view of that usage might be that a playoff-bound Houston team was protecting a veteran they'll need in the postseason, but Kirk's marginalization began several weeks ago. He had the fourth-highest snap share at WR (44.7 percent) during the regular season but just 14 receptions on 28 targets over the final nine games, as he found himself competing with rookie Jaylin Noel for work in the slot.

Skattebo (ankle) said Monday that his long-term goal is to be back to full health by the start of training camp in late July, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

His rookie season came to an end in Week 8 due to a dislocated right ankle that required surgery, but Skattebo is progressing well in his recovery. He said he has no plans of rushing things to make it back on the field for OTAs in the spring, however. Given the severe nature of his injury, Skattebo isn't guaranteed to be ready for the start of camp either, but the Giants should have a clearer idea of where the running back stands once he starts ramping up the intensity of his rehab. Skattebo's role in 2026 will hinge on how quickly he can regain his pre-surgery explosiveness. The Arizona State product was dynamic as both a runner and a pass-catcher over his eight appearances, accounting for 410 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 101 carries with 207 receiving yards and two more scores on 24 catches.

Mills completed three of nine pass attempts for 36 yards and rushed for 12 yards on one carry in Sunday's 38-30 win over the Colts in Week 18.

The playoff-bound Texans protected starter C.J. Stroud and let Mills close out the second half of the regular-season finale, once it became clear that an AFC South title wasn't in the cards. A healthy Stroud will helm Houston's playoff game next Monday at Pittsburgh. Mills, who filled in earlier this season when Stroud was hurt, finished the 2025 regular season having completing 91 of 159 attempts (57 percent) with five touchdowns and one interception.

Brooks had 13 carries for 63 yards in Sunday's 38-30 win over Indianapolis in Week 18.

A number of events led to Brooks leading Houston's backfield in both attempts and yardage. In addition to Nick Chubb being a healthy inactive and Jawhar Jordan getting ruled out after an ankle injury, the Texans accepted their fate at halftime that they were not going to vault over Jacksonville for the AFC South title. Once that reality set in, lead back Woody Marks was put on the shelf for the second half, during which Brooks amassed all of his carries.

McCarthy completed 14 of 23 pass attempts for 182 yards and added seven yards on two carries before exiting Sunday's 16-3 win over the Packers in the third quarter after aggravating a right hand injury.

Unfortunately for McCarthy, his 10th career start came to an early end, as he attempted just one pass in the second half before informing head coach Kevin O'Connell that the small hairline fracture in his throwing hand was presenting issues with gripping the football. After having his entire 2024 rookie season wiped out by a meniscus tear in his right knee, McCarthy missed seven total games in 2025 due to a right high-ankle sprain, a concussion and the aforementioned hand injury. When available, he showed strong scrambling ability (181 rushing yards and four touchdowns), but proved to be raw as a passer. On the season, McCarthy completed just 57.6 percent of his throws for 6.7 yards per attempt and an 11:12 TD:INT, and he also took 27 sacks on 270 dropbacks (10 percent sack rate) while fumbling six times (losing two). The 22-year-old will tentatively head into 2026 atop Minnesota's depth chart, but Dianna Russini of The Athletic reported Sunday that the Vikings are expected to explore more established options at quarterback via trade or free agency this offseason, potentially forcing McCarthy to compete for the starting job in training camp.

Webb had four tackles and returned a fumble for a touchdown in Sunday's 20-18 win over Cincinnati in Week 18.

Webb entered the game for an injured Denzel Ward (neck) and impacted Cleveland's second consecutive win over a division rival to close out the regular season. After Devin Bush returned an interception 97 yards for a score, Webb scooped up a fumble on the Bengals' next possession and returned it 47 yards for a touchdown. The latter was signed off the Titans' practice squad in mid-November and was used sparingly before his Week 18 heroics. In seven games with the Browns, Webb had eight tackles and one pass defensed in addition to the fumble recovery and touchdown Sunday.

Bush recorded a team-high 14 tackles and returned an interception for a touchdown in Sunday's 20-18 win over Cincinnati in Week 18.

With the Bengals knocking on the door and about to take a two-score lead, Bush grabbed a deflected pass and raced 97 yards untouched to give Cleveland a lead. It was the second pick-six of the season for Bush and third of his career. With Carson Schwesinger (ankle) inactive, Bush picked up some extra tackles (a season high) and upped his season total to 125 stops, a new career high.

Tillman caught one of two targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 20-18 win over the Bengals in Week 18.

Tillman was responsible for the Browns' longest play for the second consecutive week, and five of his last eight receptions have gone for more than 20 yards. Unfortunately for the third-year wideout, Cleveland's quarterback situation all season was a mess that limited his growth following a promising campaign in 2024, and Tillman had just five catches over the final seven games this season. He ended the regular season with 21 catches for 270 yards and two touchdowns. The 2023 third-round pick is heading into the final year of his rookie contract and should be among the team's top three wideouts in 2026, but his fantasy value will depend on organizational changes during the offseason.
