Sims caught both of his targets for 25 yards and returned two punts for 16 yards in Sunday's 21-16 win over Arizona in Week 11.

Sims made his season debut for the Texans, who were without Noah Brown (knee) , and was targeted on both his offensive snaps. He was one of six active wide receivers, as Houston dressed just two tight ends. Sims, who had one of six C.J. Stroud pass completions that went for more than 20 yards, would need several injuries to move into a position where he could be a fantasy contributor.

Trammell caught three of six targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 17-16 victory against the Seahawks. He also returned four punts for 30 yards.

Despite being primarily used as a special-teams player by the Rams through most of the season, Trammell saw a significant amount of action Sunday when Cooper Kupp (ankle) went down with an injury. Trammell's 46 snaps from scrimmage more than tripled the amount of snaps he had taken on offense all season (13), and was more than his fellow backups Ben Skowronek (nine) and Demarcus Robinson (seven) had combined. Trammell's six targets were also just one less than Puka Nacua and Darrell Henderson, and an expanded role may be available for the versatile wideout if Kupp were to miss any additional time.

Wilson brought in three of four targets for 23 yards during Sunday's 20-13 win over the Raiders.

Wilson and Robbie Chosen split No. 3 receiver reps behind top targets Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle versus Las Vegas. While Wilson had scored in two straight games leading up to Miami's bye, he logged his highest catch total since Week 5 versus the Raiders. It was also just his fourth time this season with at least 20 receiving yards. Wilson stands to handle a similar depth role on the road Friday versus the Jets.

Robinson caught both of his targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 17-16 victory against the Seahawks.

Despite earning just seven snaps on offense, the veteran wideout made the most of his scant time on the field with a 23-yard catch early in the fourth quarter, which was the start of a key touchdown drive that helped the Rams pull off the comeback victory. Cooper Kupp (ankle) went down with injury during the game, and if he were to miss any time, Robinson, Ben Skowronek and Austin Trammell would likely see an expanded role behind starters Puka Nacua and Tutu Atwell.

Proche did not play on offense and had three punt returns for 37 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Steelers.

Proche, who is operating as the No. 5 wideout while Marquise Goodwin (concussion) is unavailable, has taken hold as the primary punt returner. He had a long return of 21 yards that put Cleveland's offense in business on the Pittsburgh side of the field in the third quarter, but an interception ended that threat. In three games on the active roster, Proche has one target and 10 punt returns for 92 yards.

Tillman caught one of two targets for two yards and had one carry for eight yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over Pittsburgh.

Tillman continued to see ample time on the field -- this was his second consecutive week with 66 snaps -- but his impact has been limited. Sunday's two touches and 10 combined yards were seasons highs for the rookie, and the switch from Deshaun Watson (shoulder) to rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson under center likely won't make much of a difference for Tillman.

Cooper caught four of eight targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Steelers.

Cooper was held to his third-fewest yards, which may be a theme the rest of the year as the Browns roll with rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson in place of the injured Deshaun Watson (shoulder). The offensive game plan called for short passes, a radical change for Cooper who has a career-high aDOT of 15.5 yards in 2023 while mostly hauling in passes from the big arm of Watson. As Thompson-Robinson acclimates as the starting quarterback -- it's his job to lose with Watson done for the season -- the Browns may take more chances downfield, and their leading receiver could become more fantasy friendly.

Moore caught six of seven targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over Pittsburgh.

In a defensive affair, Moore led all pass catchers from either side with a season-high 60 receiving yards, including a 15-yard grab from rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson that kicked off the drive that led to the game-winning field goal. Sunday's game plan in the absence of Deshaun Watson (shoulder) called for a lot of short passes, which benefited Moore out of the slot, and the usual reliance on the running backs. As DTR grows more comfortable under center, perhaps head coach Kevin Stefanski will open up the playbook. Cleveland added Joe Flacco to its practice squad this week, and his experienced arm could be a factor later in the season if the rookie falters.

Diggs caught four of eight targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 32-6 win over the Jets.

The eight targets actually led the Bills, but they didn't turn into much production. Diggs has been quiet to begin the second half of the season, catching only seven of 13 targets for 61 yards and zero TDs over the last two games, but he could break out in Week 12 against an Eagles secondary that's been one of the most generous in the league this season against wideouts.

Jeudy turned seven targets into five receptions for 58 yards in Sunday's 21-20 win over Minnesota.

Jeudy's seven targets tied backup running back Samaje Perine for the team lead Sunday, but it was fellow wideout Courtland Sutton who cashed in Denver's lone touchdown for the premier fantasy line. Jeudy did make the highlight reel on one of his five receptions when he appeared to fake a lateral to his right, before euro-stepping to his left while passing the puzzled defender for a decent gain. It is unclear whether the skilled route runner planned this move in advance, or if the unconventional tactic from an entirely different sport was performed on a whim. Either way, Jeudy will remain a deep-league option when the Broncos take on the Browns next Sunday.
