Younghoe Koo K | NYG
Giants' Younghoe Koo: Misses both FGAs vs. Washington
Koo missed both of his field-goal attempts and went 3-for-3 on extra-point tries during the Giants' 29-21 loss to the Commanders on Sunday.
Both of Koo's field-goal attempts Sunday came from 50-plus yards and both missed to the left. It was Koo's first field-goal misses in five games with the Giants, and he's now 4-for-6 on field-goal attempts and 11-for-12 on extra-point tries with New York.

DeVonta Smith WR | PHI
Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Game-long reception in win
Smith brought in both targets for 50 yards in the Eagles' 31-0 win over the Raiders on Sunday.
The highlight of Smith's otherwise quiet afternoon was a 44-yard reception in the first half, which helped the speedster finish second in receiving yards to Dallas Goedert. The Eagles' offense didn't need to do much against an overmatched Raiders squad, so Smith's relatively modest afternoon should be viewed in that context. Smith figures to be busier in a Week 16 road matchup against the vulnerable Commanders defense on Saturday afternoon.

Cameron Dicker K | LAC
Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Perfect on four kicks
Dicker made all three of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try during the Chargers' 16-13 win over the Chiefs on Sunday.
Dicker put the Chargers on the board with a 49-yard field goal late in the first quarter before adding two more field goals from 23 and 49 yards in the third quarter. Sunday marked the sixth time this season that Dicker has made at least three field goals in a game. He's been perfect since the Week 12 bye, and through 13 regular-season games he has gone 34-for-36 on field-goal attempts and 29-for-29 on point-after tries.

Dalton Schultz TE | HOU
Texans' Dalton Schultz: Hauls in TD in Week 15 rout
Schultz caught eight of nine targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-20 win over the Cardinals.
The eight grabs and nine targets led the Texans, and Schultz capped his big performance with a four-yard TD grab from C.J. Stroud in the third quarter. It was just the second touchdown of the season for the veteran tight end, but Schultz has caught at least six passes and topped 50 receiving yards in five of the last seven games, posting a 38-342-2 line on 53 targets over that stretch. He'll look to deliver strong numbers again in Week 16 against the Raiders.

Jake Ferguson TE | DAL
Cowboys' Jake Ferguson: Active Sunday
Ferguson (calf) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
Ferguson entered the weekend as questionable following an LP/DNP/LP practice regimen due to a calf injury, but comments from Cowboys EVP Stephen Jones (per Jon Machota of The Athletic) on Friday and a report from Ian Rapoport of NFL Network on Saturday evening indicated that the tight end was likely to play Week 15. Indeed, that has been confirmed, and Ferguson will continue to operate as one of QB Dak Prescott's top pass catchers along with WRs CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens.

Micah Parsons DE | GB
Packers' Micah Parsons: Exits after non-contact knee injury
Parsons is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Broncos due to a left knee injury.
Parsons suffered a non-contact injury to his left knee late in the third quarter while pursuing Bo Nix on a pass rush. Parsons had to be helped off the field and into the locker room, and while he hasn't been ruled out, it seems unlikely that the All-Pro pass rusher will return to Sunday's game. Assuming Parsons is done for the day, Lukas Van Ness and Kingsley Enagbare are slated for more snaps at defensive end opposite starter Rashan Gary.

Ashton Jeanty RB | LV
Raiders' Ashton Jeanty: Limited opportunity in loss
Jeanty rushed nine times for 35 yards and brought in four of six targets for seven yards in the Raiders' 31-0 loss to the Eagles on Sunday.
Jeanty saw his rushing opportunity curtailed by game script, as the Eagles already held a 17-0 lead by halftime. The rookie first-round pick finished with the second-most receptions on the Raiders, who were being quarterbacked by backup Kenny Pickett. Jeanty's fantasy outlook remains perpetually capped by the team's circumstances on his side of the ball, and the outlook only gets more worrisome in Week 16 when Las Vegas travels to face an elite Texans defense.

Kevin Zeitler OG | TEN
Titans' Kevin Zeitler: Questionable to return
Zeitler (groin) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup versus San Francisco.
Zeitler is currently being evaluated by Tennessee's medical staff after suffering a groin injury in the second half of the game. Corey Levin has replaced Zeitler at right guard for the time being.

Jake Moody K | WAS
Commanders' Jake Moody: Makes five of six kicks vs. NYG
Moody converted on all three of his field-goal attempts and went 2-for-3 on extra-point tries during the Commanders' 29-21 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Moody drilled all three of his field-goal attempts in the first half, with his longest coming from 46 yards in the first quarter. His extra-point try late in the second quarter hit the right upright, which was his first PAT miss of the year. Moody is 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-5 on point-after tries across three regular-season games with the Commanders.

Mack Hollins WR | NE
Patriots' Mack Hollins: Leading receiver in run-heavy loss
Hollins caught four of eight targets for 41 yards in Sunday's 35-31 loss to the Bills.
Hollins led the Patriots in targets, catches and receiving yards against his former team, but New England's passing game struggled. All four of the Patriots' touchdowns came on the ground, and Drake Maye threw for only 155 yards with an interception. Hollins has reached the 50-yard threshold only three times heading into a Week 16 trip to Baltimore, typically working as a depth piece in the Patriots' passing game.
