  • Nico Collins WR | HOU

    Texans' Nico Collins: Big game against Tennessee

    Collins recorded five receptions on nine targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 32-27 loss to the Titans.

    Collins did the majority of his damage early in the game, first scoring from five yards away midway through the second quarter. He then caught a 56-yard pass to set up a field goal just before halftime. Collins also broke free for an apparent 33-yard yard score late in the fourth quarter, though it was nullified by a penalty-- the second consecutive week he's had a score called back. Despite that disappointment, Collins was more involved in the offense in his second game since returning from a hamstring injury, and he should be an elite fantasy option moving forward.

  • Riley Moss CB | DEN

    Broncos' Riley Moss: Leaves game due to knee injury

    Moss (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Raiders, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

    Moss suffered a knee injury late in the second quarter while tackling Brock Bowers. Moss had to be helped off the field, and he was taken into the locker room after being checked on by trainers in the blue medical tent. Levi Wallace will serve as the Broncos' No. 2 outside cornerback across Patrick Surtain while Moss is sidelined.

  • Sam LaPorta TE | DET

    Lions' Sam LaPorta: Garners six targets in return

    LaPorta (shoulder) finished with three receptions (six targets) for 19 yards in Sunday's 24-6 win over the Colts.

    LaPorta returned from a one-game absence due to a shoulder injury and finished third in targets in a run-heavy victory. The sophomore tight end actually matched his target and reception totals from his last active game (3-66-1), but with far less production this time around. With no reported setbacks, LaPorta should resume being a mid-tier fantasy option when the Lions host the Bears on Thanksgiving Day.

  • 49ers' Jordan Elliott: May have head injury

    Elliott is being evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Packers, Lindsey Pallares of the 49ers' official site reports.

    While Elliott gets examined, Kalia Davis and Evan Anderson will see an uptick in snaps at defensive tackle alongside starter Maliek Collins.

  • CeeDee Lamb WR | DAL

    Cowboys' CeeDee Lamb: Busy day in wild win

    Lamb brought in 10 of 12 targets for 67 yards and rushed once for one yard in the Cowboys' 34-26 win over the Commanders on Sunday.

    Lamb led the Cowboys in receptions, receiving yards and targets on a day when he was atypically contained to mostly short-area targets. The talented wideout still clawed his way to a fantasy-relevant effort while once again displaying plenty of chemistry with fill-in quarterback Cooper Rush, and the duo has now connected on 18 occasions for 160 yards on 24 pass attempts over the last two games. Lamb projects to remain heavily involved in a Week 13 home matchup against the Giants on Thanksgiving Day.

  • Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Modest production in easy win

    St. Brown corralled six of seven targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 24-6 win over Indianapolis.

    St. Brown led his team in receptions while tying Jameson Williams for the lead in targets Sunday. The former was unable to push his impressive scoring streak past eight weeks, but he still produced decent fantasy totals for managers in PPR formats. St. Brown has accrued a 71-747-9 receiving line through 11 contests, making him one of the premier wideouts in the NFL ahead of a Thanksgiving Day matchup against the Bears.

  • Drake Maye QB | NE

    Patriots' Drake Maye: Rookie struggles in loss

    Maye completed 22 of 37 passes for 221 yards with a touchdown and an interception while rushing five times for 26 yards in the Patriots' 34-15 loss to the Dolphins on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

    Maye's final numbers were serviceable enough to belie some of the difficulties he experienced throughout the afternoon, which included taking four sacks in addition to his pair of turnovers. The rookie couldn't lead the Patriots to any points until the game was out of reach in the fourth quarter and he connected with Austin Hooper for a 38-yard touchdown pass, extending his streak of at least one scoring toss to four games. Maye's pair of miscues led to a total of 10 points for the Dolphins, but he'll have a chance at redemption against an inconsistent Colts defense when the Patriots host Indianapolis in Week 13.

  • C.J. Stroud QB | HOU

    Texans' C.J. Stroud: Inconsistent showing in loss

    Stroud completed 20 of 33 passes for 247 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Sunday's 32-27 loss to the Titans. He added three rushes for 18 yards.

    Stroud took advantage of excellent field position to throw for a 19-yard touchdown on his first pass attempt of the game. He continued his strong start by connecting with Nico Collins and Tank Dell for explosive gains of 54 and 39 yards while also connecting with Collins for a five-yard touchdown pass -- all of which came prior to halftime. However, Stroud was sacked four times in the second half and picked up just 98 passing yards on 16 attempts, leading to a disappointing loss. Positively, Stroud threw for multiple touchdowns for the first time since Week 5.

  • Colts' Jonathan Taylor: Midseason lull continues

    Taylor rushed 11 times for 35 yards and was not targeted as a receiver in Sunday's 24-6 loss to the Lions.

    Taylor was inefficient with his carries for the second consecutive game and has now averaged under four yards per carry in three of his last four contests. Quarterback Anthony Richardson pitched a dud Sunday, resulting in a poor game script for Indianapolis' star running back. Taylor remains the workhorse in the Colts' backfield, but the offense needs to show more balance against the Patriots next Sunday in order to unleash their top talent on the roster.

  • Tyreek Hill WR | MIA

    Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Contained again in win

    Hill brought in five of six targets for 48 yards in the Dolphins' 34-15 win over the Patriots on Sunday.

    Hill played a clear second fiddle to the somewhat unlikely duo of Jaylen Waddle and Jonnu Smith, who accounted for 17 of Tua Tagovailoa's completions, 231 of his yards and half of his four touchdown passes on the afternoon. Hill was a distant third in receptions, receiving yards and targets to both of his fellow pass catchers, and he's now mired in a 10-game streak of failing to clear 80 receiving yards heading into a Week 13 road showdown against the Packers on Thanksgiving Night this Thursday.
