McKenzie had one carry for three yards and didn't have a target in Sunday's 27-20 win over Tampa Bay. He also returned one punt for 13 yards.

McKenzie played just six snaps on offense as he moved back to mostly a special teams role with the Colts' top three receivers healthy.

Pierce had four receptions for 27 yards on six targets in Sunday's 27-20 win against Tampa Bay.

After recording just one reception for 21 yards over his last two games, Pierce was more involved against Tampa Bay. He had his most receptions in a game this season, which speaks more to his lack of production in the offense. He continues to get a heavy workload as a starting wide receiver but few receptions as Indy's main deep threat.

Jefferson (hamstring) has been downgraded to out for Monday's game against the Bears.

Jefferson officially remains on injured reserve and will look to make his return Week 14 against the Raiders following Minnesota's Week 13 bye. The Vikings will likely lean on the trio of Jordan Addison, K.J. Osborn and slot man Brandon Powell to serve as their main options at receiver versus Chicago.

Agholor caught one of two targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Chargers.

The veteran played 41 percent of the snaps, which is in line with his usage rates over the course of the season when the rest of the receiving corps is healthy. Agholor has seen two or fewer targets in six straight weeks and has recorded four receptions for 72 yards and two touchdowns in that span. Even with Mark Andrews' ankle injury opening up plenty of targets to get redistributed, Agholor doesn't appear to be a candidate to see more work. Baltimore is on a bye Week 13 before returning to action against the Rams on Sunday, Dec. 10.

Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that Wicks has been removed from the NFL's concussion protocol, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

Wicks suffered the concussion in Green Bay's Week 11 win over the Chargers and was unable to clear the five-step protocol last week ahead of Thursday's win over the Lions. The lengthier turnaround for this Sunday's matchup with the Chiefs should help the rookie receiver, who looks poised to practice fully throughout the week now that he's been removed from the protocol.

Bateman caught two of five targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Chargers.

Bateman's usage ticked up in Baltimore's first game without Mark Andrews (ankle), but his production remained stagnant as he was held under 30 yards for the fourth consecutive week. He's played over 80 percent of Baltimore's offensive snaps over the last two weeks, so his role is solidified. However, Bateman continues to struggle to convert those snaps into bankable fantasy production. He has a catch rate of just 55.6 percent, which is in the 30th percentile among receivers. Baltimore is on a bye Week 13 before returning to action against the Rams on Sunday, Dec. 10.

Shaheed is viewed as day-to-day with a quad injury he suffered in Sunday's Week 12 loss to the Falcons, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football indicated that Shaheed will likely be unavailable this week, but it sounds like the speedy wideout and return man avoided a serious injury. The Saints host the Lions on Sunday. Shaheed, Chris Olave (concussion) and Michael Thomas (knee, IR) are all dinged up. As a result, New Orleans could be diving deep into its wideout depth chart.

Robinson secured his lone target for 11 yards during the Steelers' 16-10 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

Although the Steelers looked much better offensively Week 12 following the recent firing of offensive coordinator Matt Canada, Robinson remained limited during the victory. While he topped 20 receiving yards in three of his first five appearances with the Steelers, he's secured just six of nine targets for 48 yards over the past six weeks and is unlikely to have much fantasy upside as long as the team's other pass catchers are healthy.

Tolbert caught two of three targets for 49 yards in a 45-10 rout of the Commanders on Thanksgiving.

He was one of 10 different Cowboys to catch passes from Dak Prescott on the afternoon, with Tolbert posting gains of 31 and 18 yards on his two grabs. The second-year wideout still doesn't have a big role in the offense, but he's pushing Michael Gallup for the No. 3 spot on the depth chart and has caught at least two passes in four straight games, posting a 9-112-1 line on 18 targets over that stretch compared to Gallup's 8-133-1 performance on 11 targets.

Turpin caught his only target for a 34-yard touchdown in a 45-10 rout of the Commanders on Thanksgiving.

The second-year return man continues to get occasional usage on offense as the Cowboys try to take advantage of his speed and elusiveness, and Turpin's lone grab Thursday produced the team's final offensive score of the afternoon. It's his third receiving TD of the season and fourth overall on just 18 touches, and while that volume doesn't give him a lot of utility in many fantasy leagues, he's provided some value in deeper best-ball leagues.
