  • 49ers' Brian Robinson: Garners five touches Sunday

    Robinson took four carries for 22 yards and grabbed his only target for six yards in Sunday's 42-38 win over Chicago.

    Robinson was on the field for 11 snaps on offense (15 percent) while handling five touches for the second week running. The veteran backup continues to be lost in the shadow of starter Christian McCaffrey (23-140-1), who has a stranglehold on the 49ers' lead back role. Robinson won't provide much in terms of fantasy value while spelling McCaffrey against the Seahawks in Saturday's regular-season finale.

  • Jackson Hawes TE | BUF

    Bills' Jackson Hawes: No targets Sunday

    Hawes wasn't targeted while playing 21 of the Bills' 73 offensive snaps during Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Eagles.

    Hawes operated as the Bills' No. 2 tight end during Sunday's loss, playing behind Dawson Knox (5-30-0) while Dalton Kincaid (knee) was sidelined. However, this didn't translate to an increase in production, as Hawes wasn't targeted in Week 17. Across 16 appearances this season, the rookie from Georgia Tech has caught 15 of 18 targets for 187 yards and three touchdowns. He's expected to remain a depth option in Buffalo's TE room in the Week 18 matchup against the Jets.

  • Isaiah Hodgins WR | NYG

    Giants' Isaiah Hodgins: Makes one catch in Week 17 win

    Hodgins caught one of two targets for eight yards in Sunday's 34-10 win against Las Vegas.

    Hodgins continued to see plenty of time on the field, with his 52 offensive snaps ranking second among New York wideouts behind Darius Slayton's 56 and ahead of Wan'Dale Robinson's 48. As usual, however, Robinson dominated looks from QB Jaxson Dart with an 11-113-0 receiving line on 14 targets, while no other pass catcher on the team had more than four targets. Hodgins seems to be the preferred choice for the Giants' No. 3 wideout role, but that hasn't led to much production of late, as he's logged a total of just three catches on five targets for 16 yards across his past four contests. It remains to be seen how interim head coach Mike Kafka will approach Week 18 versus the Cowboys given that New York is probably better off taking a loss to avoid slipping down the order for next year's NFL Draft, but regardless, Hodgins doesn't have any tangible fantasy floor for managers who still have a reason to set their lineups next week.

  • Gabe Davis WR | BUF

    Bills' Gabe Davis: Blanks in Week 17

    Davis failed to catch his lone target while playing 28 of the Bills' 73 offensive snaps during Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Eagles.

    The 26-year-old wideout was inactive in each of the Bills' last two games prior to Sunday's loss. Since signing with Buffalo in early September, Davis has appeared in five games and caught seven of 11 targets for 88 yards. He's expected to remain a depth option in the Bills' receiving corps in the Week 18 matchup against the Jets.

  • Tyrell Shavers WR | BUF

    Bills' Tyrell Shavers: Two catches in Week 17

    Shavers caught two of three targets for 36 yards during Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Eagles.

    The 26-year-old played the second-most snaps (42) of any Buffalo wideout during Sunday's loss, trailing just Khalil Shakir (56 snaps). Shavers also finished with the second-most receiving yards on the team, eclipsing 30 yards for the first time since the Week 11 win over the Buccaneers. Expect the San Diego State product to remain one of the Bills' top receiving options in the Week 18 matchup against the Jets.

  • Packers' Micah Parsons: Goes under knife

    Parsons (knee) announced via his personal social media account Monday that he is undergoing surgery to repair his torn left ACL, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Parsons is expected to miss time early in the 2026 regular season due to the timing of the left ACL tear he suffered Dec. 14, but per a prior report from Demovsky, the star pass rusher could realistically be back in action by Week 4. In any case, with Parsons already on IR, Green Bay will need to rely on a combination of Rashan Gary, Lukas Van Ness and Kingsley Enagbare to provide pressure against opposing quarterbacks for the remainder of the 2025 campaign.

  • Ray Davis RB | BUF

    Bills' Ray Davis: Two touches vs. Philly

    Davis caught his lone target for 12 yards and rushed once for four yards during Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Eagles. He added 84 kick-return yards on three attempts.

    Davis played nine offensive snaps during Sunday's loss and received a carry for the second consecutive game. The second-year pro from Kentucky has now rushed 37 times for 124 yards and caught eight of 11 targets for 63 yards and a touchdown through 16 games this season. He's been one of the NFL's most dynamic kick returners, averaging 30.7 yards per return and totaling 921 yards on the year. Expect Davis to remain a depth option in the Bills' backfield while contributing on special teams in the Week 18 matchup against the Jets, though he could see extra action if the Bills decide to ease back on starters like James Cook now that the AFC East title is out of reach for the playoff-bound Bills.

  • Tim Patrick WR | JAC

    Jaguars' Tim Patrick: Blanks vs. Colts

    Patrick didn't catch his lone target while playing 12 of the Jaguars' 69 offensive snaps during Sunday's 23-17 win over the Colts.

    The 32-year-old has now gone without a catch in two of the Jaguars' last three contests. Patrick has appeared in 15 games this season, catching 14 of 23 targets for 183 yards and three touchdowns. He's expected to remain a depth option in Jacksonville's receiving corps in the Week 18 matchup against the Titans on Sunday.

  • DeeJay Dallas RB | JAC

    Jaguars' DeeJay Dallas: Efficient in Week 17

    Dallas rushed twice for 21 yards and didn't catch his lone target during Sunday's 23-16 win over the Colts. He added two kickoff returns for 62 yards.

    Dallas received his first two carries since joining the Jaguars during the Week 17 win, averaging 10.5 yards per rush. The veteran from Miami also contributed on special teams, tallying a team-high 62 kick-return yards. Expect Dallas to remain one of Jacksonville's top kick returners in the Week 18 matchup against the Titans, even if Bhayshul Tuten (finger) returns from injury.

  • LeQuint Allen RB | JAC

    Jaguars' LeQuint Allen: One carry in Week 17

    Allen returned two kickoffs for 58 yards and rushed once for three yards during Sunday's 23-17 win over the Colts.

    The 2025 seventh-round pick operated as the Jaguars' No. 2 running back for the second consecutive week while Bhayshul Tuten (finger) was sidelined during Sunday's win. However, this didn't translate to an increase in production, as Allen received just one offensive touch. Through 16 appearances this season, Allen has rushed 23 times for 94 yards and caught 10 of 11 targets for 54 yards. Additionally, he's recorded 617 kick-return yards. Expect the rookie to continue serving as one of Jacksonville's top kick returners in the Week 18 matchup against the Titans.
