    Ravens' Tylan Wallace: Delivers walk-off return TD

    Wallace went without a target across five snaps on offense and returned three punts for 95 yards -- including a game-winning 76-yard touchdown -- in Sunday's 37-31 overtime victory over the Rams.

    A 2018 first-team All-American as a receiver at Oklahoma State, Wallace has just six receptions to his name since joining the Ravens as a fourth-round pick in 2021. Rather than on offense, Wallace has seen most of his NFL action to date as a member of the Ravens' coverage units on special teams, but he was pressed into duties as the team's return man after two-time Pro Bowler Devin Duvernay exited Sunday's game early with a back injury. While Duvernay was available earlier in the contest, Wallace was penalized for lining up in the neutral zone on a 4th-and-5 play in the second quarter that gave the Rams a first down and eventually led to a touchdown, but Wallace atoned for the error in overtime. While fielding a punt cleanly with just under eight minutes remaining, Wallace danced around several defenders, spun out of a tackle and sprinted down the sideline for the walk-off score. Per Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic, head coach John Harbaugh said Monday that Duvernay will likely be out for a week or more with the back injury, so look for Wallace to continue serving as the Ravens' return man Week 15 in Jacksonville.

  • DJ Chark WR | ATL

    Panthers' DJ Chark: Makes two grabs

    Chark caught two of four targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 28-6 loss to the Saints.

    Chark's output was close to his weekly average within a poor Panthers passing attack. Through 11 games, the veteran sports merely 25 catches (on 46 targets) for 345 yards and three touchdowns.

  • Jaguars' Parker Washington: Catches another touchdown

    Washington caught two of three targets for 27 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-27 loss to Cleveland.

    The 21-year-old secured the second touchdown of his career with a 19-yard reception in the fourth quarter, but he otherwise wasn't significantly involved in the passing game on a day when Trevor Lawrence attempted 50 passes. Washington played 47 of 76 offensive snaps as Jacksonville's No. 3 wideout and should remain in that role going forward with Christian Kirk (groin) on injured reserve.

  • Zay Jones WR | ARI

    Jaguars' Zay Jones: Minimal production on 14 targets

    Jones caught five of 14 targets for 29 yards during Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Browns.

    Jones led Jacksonville in targets but finished fourth on the team in receiving yards. The 28-year-old played 84 percent of the offensive snaps with Christian Kirk (groin) on injured reserve, and Jones should continue to see a heavy snap share moving forward, though the current state of the Jaguars' passing game makes him a bit of a volatile fantasy option.

  • Michael Wilson WR | ARI

    Cardinals' Michael Wilson: Back on practice field

    Wilson (shoulder) was spotted taking part in Monday's unofficial practice session, Tyler Drake of ArizonaSports.com reports.

    Though the Cardinals were back on the field Monday following a Week 14 bye, the team won't have to submit its first Week 15 injury report until Wednesday, at which point it will be known whether Wilson is practicing as a full or limited participant. The fact that the rookie receiver is at least practicing in some capacity is an encouraging sign after he had sat out Arizona's last three games while missing six consecutive practices. If Wilson is available for this Sunday's game against the 49ers, he should reclaim the starting role he had held prior to suffering the shoulder injury.

  • Michael Gallup WR | WAS

    Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Snags second TD of 2023

    Gallup caught three of five targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Eagles.

    The veteran wideout caught a one-yard slant from Dak Prescott right before halftime to give the Cowboys a 24-6 lead in an eventual 33-13 romp. The TD was Gallup's second of the season, while the three grabs and five targets tied his highs in seven games since the team's bye. CeeDee Lamb, Brandin Cooks and Jake Ferguson remain Prescott's top options in the passing game, but there's been enough production to go around lately that Gallup is still capable of providing some fantasy value, although not consistently.

  • Randall Cobb WR | NYJ

    Jets' Randall Cobb: Scores first TD as a Jet

    Cobb caught his only target for a 15-yard touchdown in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Texans.

    Active for only the second time since Week 6, Cobb made the most of his opportunity by catching a 15-yard touchdown to open the scoring in the third quarter. It was Cobb's first touchdown as a member of the Jets, as well as his longest reception with the team.

  • Xavier Gipson WR | NYG

    Jets' Xavier Gipson: Scores rushing TD in Week 14 win

    Gipson caught his only target for three yards and rushed once for nine yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Texans.

    Gipson scored his first offensive touchdown in the NFL on a nine-yard run in the third quarter, doubling New York's lead to 14-0. He also had three punt returns for 17 yards. Whether it's as a traditional slot receiver or a gadget player, Gipson has carved out consistent playing time in New York's offense, albeit with only a few touches per game.

  • Vikings' Justin Jefferson: Avoids severe injury

    Coach Kevin O'Connell said after Sunday's 3-0 win over the Raiders that Jefferson (chest), who was forced out of the contest in the first half, avoided a serious injury, Kevin Seifert of ESPN reports.

    O'Connell said, "It looks like [Jefferson] avoided any significant thing there," but that it remains to be seen whether the star wideout will be available Week 15 versus the Bengals. Sunday marked Jefferson's first game back from IR due to a hamstring injury suffered Week 5, but a hit from Raiders safety Marcus Epps resulted in him being taken to the hospital as a precaution. While Jefferson was able to travel home with the team and has been cleared of any serious internal injuries, his status now needs to be closely monitored until Minnesota provides a clear timetable for his recovery.

  • Rams' Demarcus Robinson: Shaky day salvaged with TD

    Robinson secured three of 10 targets for 46 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 37-31 overtime loss to the Ravens.

    Despite tying for the team lead in targets with Cooper Kupp, Robinson wasn't able to come close to replicating Kupp's stellar 8-115-1 line. Even though Robinson and Matthew Stafford weren't able to get on the same page for much of the day, a five-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter gave the veteran wideout a decent performance from a fantasy perspective. Perhaps more notably, Tutu Atwell left the game in the second quarter while being evaluated for a concussion, which could push Robinson into a starting role alongside Kupp and Puka Nacua heading into a tantalizing matchup with the Commanders in Week 15.
