Reed recorded four receptions on four targets for 112 yards in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Bears.

Reed entered the game having at least eight targets in three straight games, so he took a step back from a volume perspective. However, he used lengthy catches of 59 and 32 yards to post the first 100-yard game of his career despite the limited opportunity. Reed entered the contest dealing with a chest injury, but assuming he's able to suit up in a wild-card round matchup against the Cowboys, he's a good bet to lead the receiving corps once again. He concludes his first regular season with 793 receiving yards and eight touchdowns on 64 catches.

Reynolds caught five of seven targets for 44 yards during Sunday's 30-20 win over the Vikings.

Reynolds technically saw his most action in the passing game since Week 1, and it came in the absence of Jameson Williams (ankle). However, with the receiver needing 36 receiving yards to hit 600 on the year and trigger a $250k bonus in his contract, quarterback Jared Goff peppered Reynolds with four straight passes on Detroit's final four offensive plays of the game. Reynolds otherwise finished a distant third in targets behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Sam LaPorta (ankle). With that said, each of LaPorta, Williams and Kalif Raymond (knee) could be banged up entering the wild-card round of the playoffs, leaving Reynolds as the potential No. 2 option in the passing game ahead of a revenge matchup with the Rams.

The knee injury Brown suffered in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Giants isn't believed to be serious, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Brown exited in the first half of the regular-season finale but was the first player greeting players in the locker room after the game. Jalen Hurts (finger) also left in the first half, and while both players are more likely than not to be available for the wild-card round in Tampa Bay, Philadelphia's injury report heading into the playoffs will be worth monitoring to confirm their availability.

Moore caught four passes on six targets for 64 yards in the Bears' 17-9 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

After five seasons in Carolina, Moore had the best quarterback play during his time in the NFL, and he turned into to a career year. The veteran caught 96 passes for 1,364 yards and eight touchdowns on 130 targets. Although the target total was the fourth-highest of his career, he bested his career high in receiving yards by 171 yards, and his eight scores were one more than his previous career-best mark that he set in 2022. He's under contract with Chicago through 2025. With the expectation that Moore will have at least the same level of quarterback play, and possibly an elevated level, the wideout will likely be one of the top receivers selected in 2024 fantasy drafts.

Samuel caught both of his targets for 21 yards while adding 11 rushing yards on one attempt in Sunday's 21-20 loss to the Rams.

Brandon Aiyuk joined Samuel as the only key offensive players to suit up for Sunday's inconsequential regular-season finale. Both starting wideouts saw limited run with three touches apiece as San Francisco tried to preserve its core of superstars ahead of the team's upcoming first playoff contest. Samuel will finish the regular season with 1,085 combined yards from scrimmage and 12 total touchdowns while appearing in 15 games. The hybrid superstar's efforts produced the only campaign to rival his incredible 2021 season from a fantasy perspective. Expect Samuel to see more action when the 49ers resume play in the NFC divisional round on either Jan. 20 or Jan. 21.

Watkins caught eight of 11 targets for 93 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Giants.

With DeVonta Smith (ankle) inactive and A.J. Brown (knee) exiting early, Watkins emerged as the Eagles' top downfield option and led the team in catches, targets and receiving yards. The fourth-year wideout capped a season-best performance with a 16-yard TD grab from Marcus Mariota in the fourth quarter for Philly's only touchdown and Watkins' first score of the year. It's unclear if either Brown or Smith will be available for the Eagles' wild-card matchup with the Buccaneers next weekend, so Watkins could see an elevated role once again.

Meyers caught three of five targets for 61 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for a five-yard touchdown in Sunday's 27-14 win over the Broncos.

Meyers improvised on a play on which he was expected to throw, reversing field and ultimately scampering into the end zone from close range. The wideout then found pay dirt again with a wide-open 33-yard grab to begin the fourth quarter. Despite inconsistent quarterback play, Meyers finished the season with 71 catches on 106 targets for 807 yards and nine total touchdowns.

Jeudy caught three of five targets for 79 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-14 loss to the Raiders.

Jeudy slipped a few tackles en route to a 24-yard score during the second quarter. That marked just the second touchdown of the campaign for Jeudy, who also finished with 54 grabs on 86 targets for 758 yards in 16 games. After the Broncos exercised his fifth-year option for north of $12 million last offseason, Jeudy is set to be under contract with the team for the 2024 season, though it's uncertain as of now who Denver's starting quarterback will be.

Adams caught five of eight targets for 46 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-14 win over the Broncos.

Adams hauled in a three-yard touchdown to close the second quarter, marking his eighth score of the season. With five grabs, Adams also topped the 100-catch plateau for the fourth straight year, finishing the campaign with 103 receptions on 175 targets for 1,144 yards and the aforementioned eight TDs. Even with inconsistent quarterback play, Adams remains one of the league's most impactful wideouts, making him a reliable commodity heading into the offseason.

Waddle (ankle) is inactive for Sunday night's game against the Bills.

Waddle, who suffered a high-ankle sprain during Week 16 action and then didn't play in last weekend's 56-19 loss to Baltimore, approached the contest listed as questionable after logging a limited practice Friday following absences Wednesday and Thursday. Now that he's been ruled inactive for Miami's regular-season finale, Cedrick Wilson figures to see added Week 18 WR work alongside Tyreek Hill, while Braxton Berrios, River Cracraft, Robbie Chosen and Chase Claypool are also candidates to log added snaps versus Buffalo. Waddle will now target a potential return to action in the Dolphins' playoff opener next week against an opponent to be determined.
