Bell caught all four of his targets for 68 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Bengals.

Bell stepped up with the Browns resting numerous regulars, catching touchdowns of 31 and 24 yards from Jeff Driskel in the fourth quarter. The 2022 third-round draft pick came into the game with only one touchdown in his NFL career. With Amari Cooper (heel) and Elijah Moore likely to return to being Cleveland's top wideout options for the postseason, Bell is unlikely to see many targets from starting quarterback Joe Flacco in the wild-card round against the Texans, though fellow depth wideout Cedric Tillman (head) exited in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss.

Green did not catch a pass during Sunday's 30-20 win over the Vikings.

Green was active for the first time since Week 10 but did not get any work in the passing game. Even if Jameson Williams (ankle) and/or Kalif Raymond (knee) miss time in the playoffs, Green is highly unlikely to make much of a dent in the box score.

Lamb caught all 13 of his targets for 98 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-10 win over the Commanders.

With the Cowboys needing a victory to secure an NFC East title and the No. 2 seed in the NFC, Dak Prescott leaned heavily on Lamb once again. The fourth-year wideout put a bow on his incredible campaign with a four-yard TD grab just before halftime and a six-yard score in the third quarter, and Lamb's 135 catches on the season not only set a new franchise record, they made him the first player in Dallas history to lead the NFL in the category. If the Bills' secondary shuts down Tyreek Hill on Sunday night, Lamb's 1,749 receiving yards could also end up leading the league. He'll roll into the postseason with a juicy matchup on tap in the wild-card round against a Packers secondary that struggled badly at times down the stretch.

Nacua corralled all four of his targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-20 win over the 49ers.

Nacua wasn't expected to do much from a fantasy perspective Sunday after the Rams announced that they would be removing the breakout star from the contest once he gained 29 yards to set the new rookie all-time record for receiving yards in a single season. The BYU product came one yard shy of Bill Groman's previous mark of 1,473 yards set in 1960 when he caught a 19-yard touchdown to cap off Los Angeles' opening drive Sunday. Nacua didn't see another target until the start of the third quarter, when he notched a pair of short receptions to clinch two NFL rookie records by also passing Jaylen Waddle's 104 receptions set in 2021. Nacua's final rookie line of 105/1,486/6 is more than the Rams could have hoped for from a fifth-round selection. The 23-year-old can continue shattering expectations for the Rams in the upcoming wild-card round of the playoffs.

Perry hauled in all three targets for 53 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's 48-17 win over the Falcons.

Perry ended his rookie campaign with his third and fourth receiving scores of the season. The 6-foot-4 wideout out of Wake Forest first caught a touchdown in tight coverage up the left sideline for an 18-yard touchdown that got the Saints on the board in the first quarter. He then scored the team's second-to-last touchdown when he got open in the right corner of the end zone for a six-yard score. Perry also caught a 29-yard pass on third down during the the third quarter, thus finishing with a single-came career high in receiving yards. Across 10 games this season, the sixth-round pick caught 12 of 18 targets for 246 yards and four touchdowns while showing notable playmaking skills on contested catches throughout the year.

Peoples-Jones caught two of two targets for 25 yards during Sunday's 30-20 win over the Vikings.

Peoples-Jones caught passes on consecutive plays in the third quarter but was otherwise unheard from for most of the game. However, if Jameson Williams (ankle) and Kalif Raymond (knee) are unable to play against the Rams in the wild-card round, Peoples-Jones could potentially serve as the No. 3 wide receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Josh Reynolds going forward, which is a role that would take on heightened importance if tight end Sam LaPorta (knee) misses time as well.

Douglas caught two of five targets for 13 yards in Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Jets.

As if catching passes from Bailey Zappe against the stout Jets secondary wasn't tough enough on its own, Douglas also had to contend with a snowstorm. The 2023 sixth-round draft pick showed some promise this season with 49 catches for 561 yards on 78 targets, though he failed to score a touchdown across 14 games as a rookie. The Patriots will likely try to bolster their wide-receiver room in the offseason, but Douglas could also benefit from a potential upgrade at quarterback, which could come via the Patriots' third overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft.

Wicks recorded six receptions on seven targets for 61 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Bears.

Wicks matched his season high with seven targets and led the team with six receptions. Though he was overshadowed by Jayden Reed from a yardage perspective, Wicks accounted for both of Green Bay's touchdowns with receptions of 10 and 12 yards. His emergence has overlapped with the absence of Christian Watson (hamstring), so Wicks' role in the Packers' wild-card round matchup against the Cowboys is unclear for the time being. Regardless of his results next week, he closed his first regular season with 39 receptions, 581 yards and four touchdowns across 15 games.

Robinson caught five of six targets for 85 yards in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Eagles.

He led the Giants in receiving yards on the day while tying Darren Waller and Darius Slayton for the team lead in catches. The 85 yards were also a season high for Robinson. The second-year wideout began to establish a consistent role in the offense late in the season, posting a 24-260-0 line on 33 targets over New York's final five games, and better QB play in 2024 could allow Robinson to build on that performance.

Slayton caught five of seven targets for 62 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Eagles.

The wideout tied Wan'Dale Robinson and Darren Waller for the team lead with five grabs each, but Slayton was the only Giants receiver to get into the end zone, connecting with Tyrod Taylor on a 19-yard score late in the second quarter. Slayton tied his career high with 50 catches in 2023 and set a new personal best with 770 receiving yards, but the Giants could do a lot of housecleaning on the roster in the offseason, and it's not clear if the 26-year-old is part of their future plans.
