  • Cardinals' Marvin Harrison: Six catches in return Sunday

    Harrison secured six of seven targets for 69 yards in the Cardinals' 20-17 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday.

    Making his return from a two-game absence following an emergency appendectomy, Harrison ascended back into his No. 1 receiver role at the expense of the likes of Michael Wilson and Greg Dortch. Harrison finished second across the board to Trey McBride in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon, but he led Arizona's wideouts in all three categories despite dealing with a minor heel injury in the second half. Now seemingly back to full health, Harrison will maintain plenty of fantasy appeal across all formats going into a Week 14 home showdown against the Rams next Sunday.

  • Jauan Jennings WR | MIN

    49ers' Jauan Jennings: Hauls in TD in Week 13 win

    Jennings caught four of six targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-8 win over the Browns.

    Both passing attacks struggled to deal with high winds in Cleveland, but Jennings was able to get on the other end of a Brock Purdy seven-yard TD pass in the fourth quarter. It's the fifth-year wideout's fourth score in the last five games, a stretch in which Jennings has put together a 23-246-4 line on 33 targets. He'll get a chance to rest during next week's bye before the 49ers host the Titans in Week 15.

  • 49ers' Christian McCaffrey: Gets into end zone in Week 13

    McCaffrey carried the ball 20 times for 53 yards and a touchdown and caught all four of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 26-8 win over the Browns.

    The 21 receiving yards represented his lowest total of the season, while the 74 scrimmage yards were his worst production since Week 8 as the 49ers offense struggled in bad weather against a tough Cleveland front seven. McCaffrey salvaged his day with a one-yard TD plunge to open the scoring in the first quarter however, his eighth rushing score and 13th total touchdown in 13 games. McCaffrey will get a breather during next week's bye before taking on a more vulnerable Titans defense in Week 15.

  • Bijan Robinson RB | ATL

    Falcons' Bijan Robinson: Nearly 200 yards in loss to Jets

    Robinson rushed 23 times for 142 yards and a touchdown while catching five of seven targets for 51 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Jets.

    Robinson posted his second-highest total of the season with 193 scrimmage yards. He was stopped for no gain on first-and-goal from the one-yard line late in the first half and watched Tyler Allgeier power in a game-tying one-yard touchdown on the next play. Bijan produced a rushing touchdown of his own with a five-yard scoring run in the third quarter, but it was only his fifth touchdown run of the season compared to Allgeier's eight. Robinson has produced at least 107 scrimmage yards in three consecutive games and in eight of 12 games overall heading into a Week 14 home game against Seattle's stout run defense.

  • Bucky Irving RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Strong showing in return

    Irving rushed 17 times for 61 yards and a touchdown while bringing in both targets for 20 yards in the Buccaneers' 20-17 win over the Cardinals on Sunday.

    Irving notably jumped right back into a true lead-back role in his first game action since Week 4, despite talk during the week he'd see limited snaps. The standout second-year back outpaced both Rachaad White and Sean Tucker by 15 carries, and in addition to his 13-yard scoring run late in the third quarter, he also saw a one-yard touchdown in the second quarter wiped out by a holding penalty. Perhaps just as important as his individual statistics was the fact Irving proved capable of handling a hefty workload immediately, which certainly pleases his fantasy managers heading into a Week 14 home matchup against a vulnerable Saints defense next Sunday.

  • Brock Wright TE | DET

    Lions' Brock Wright: Could miss extended time

    Lions coach Dan Campbell said Sunday that Wright is dealing with an injury to his trachea and could be in for with a long-term absence, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Pressreports.

    Wright didn't play Thursday against Green Bay, and it sounds like he could be sidelined awhile. Sam LaPorta (back) is expected to miss the rest of the season, so Ross Dwelley and Anthony Firkser will be the Lions' top two tight ends should Wright indeed be in for further absences. Campbell also indicated that Wright is undergoing further scans, so his timeline for a potential return remains uncertain.

  • Brock Purdy QB | SF

    49ers' Brock Purdy: Produces two TDs in win

    Purdy completed 16 of 29 passes for 168 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-8 win over the Browns. He added four rushing yards and a TD on two carries.

    High winds in Cleveland made passing difficult, but Purdy was able to connect with Jauan Jennings for a seven-yard score in the fourth quarter after the QB ran in a two-yard touchdown of his own in the third. The rushing score was Purdy's first in three starts since returning from a toe injury and is the best sign yet that he's fully healthy. He'll get a bye to rest up next week before the 49ers host the Titans in Week 15.

  • Amani Hooker SAF | TEN

    Titans' Amani Hooker: Nursing rib injury

    Hooker sustained a rib injury during the Titans' 25-3 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports.

    Hooker appeared to sustain the injury late in the fourth quarter and did not return, finishing with four tackles (three solo). He'll undergo further tests to determine the severity of his injury, and rookie third-rounder Kevin Winston would be slated to start at safety alongside Xavier Woods if Hooker were to miss time.

  • Giovanni Ricci TE | DET

    Giovanni Ricci: Signs with Detroit

    The Lions signed Ricci to the practice squad Sunday.

    Ricci was cut by the Vikings Aug. 26 and had not yet been signed to a practice squad or roster this regular season. The tight end likely was signed for additional depth amid the absences of Sam LaPorta (back), Brock Wright (neck) and Shane Zylstra (ankle).

  • Maliek Collins DT | CLE

    Browns' Maliek Collins: Dealing with quad injury

    Head coach Kevin Stefanski said Collins suffered a quad injury during Cleveland's loss to the 49ers on Saturday, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN reports.

    Collins is set to undergo imaging on his quad after being carted off in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup. If the 30-year-old is forced to miss any games, Shelby Harris should fill in as one of the team's starting defensive tackles.
