Bourne had two receptions (on three targets) for 17 yards in Sunday's 37-24 win over the Titans.

Bourne jumped back up to third on San Francisco's receiver depth chart while logging 33 snaps on offense (45 percent) Sunday. The 29-year-old also nabbed his first reception since Week 10 after seemingly falling out of favor midseason. If Bourne continues to operate as the 49ers' third receiver down the stretch, then desperate fantasy managers in deeper formats could take a look at the veteran against the Colts next Monday, especially if starter Ricky Pearsall (ankle/knee) is limited by a couple of minor injuries that cropped up in Week 15's win.

Robinson hauled in both of his targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 37-24 win over Tennessee.

Robinson made his mark on Sunday's victory when he made a 30-yard grab on the final play of the first quarter for his longest reception of the season. The veteran wideout did see his snap count (31 percent) drop to fourth on the team behind Jauan Jennings (81 percent), Ricky Pearsall (58 percent) and Kendrick Bourne (45 percent) against the Titans. The minor shift on the depth chart shouldn't affect many fantasy leagues, as Robinson's production this season (15-199-0) barely registers on deep-league radars.

Brooks caught one of three targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 40-20 loss to the Texans. He also returned five kickoffs for 132 yards.

The South Carolina product was elevated to the Cardinals' active roster and played a season-high 44 offensive snaps in Sunday's loss. In two games with Arizona, Brooks has caught three of six targets for 51 yards while tallying 198 kickoff-return yards. If Marvin Harrison (heel) is sidelined again in the Week 16 matchup against the Falcons, Brooks could return to the active roster.

Burks didn't catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 29-21 win over the Giants.

The 2022 first-round pick from Arkansas has now gone without a catch in each of the Commanders' last two games. Since joining the active roster before the Week 9 loss to the Seahawks, Burks has caught five of 11 targets for 77 yards and a touchdown. He's expected to remain a depth option in Washington's wide-receiver corps in the Week 16 matchup against the Eagles.

Brown rushed once for four yards and lost a fumble during Sunday's 48-20 win against the Jets.

Brown played just five offensive snaps and received his only touch of the game during the fourth quarter, which he fumbled away. It was the 26-year-old's first offensive touch since Week 9, and his lax ball security will likely further limit his opportunities.

Cooks (undisclosed) failed to catch any of his three targets during Sunday's 35-31 win over the Patriots.

Although Cooks played 22 offensive snaps and logged the second-most targets of any Bills receiver in Sunday's win, he was seen heading to the X-ray room with trainers following the game, per Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News. In three games with Buffalo, Cooks has caught just one of four targets for 13 yards. If he's able to suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Browns, he'll likely remain a depth option in the team's receiving corps.

Patrick wasn't targeted during Sunday's 48-20 win against the Jets.

The 32-year-old played just two fewer offensive snaps than No. 3 wideout Parker Washington but wasn't involved in the passing game. Patrick took advantage of Washington's absence due to a hip injury last week and caught five passes for 78 yards and a touchdown, but Patick likely won't have many opportunities while Washington, Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers are healthy.

Shavers played 34 of the Bills' 67 offensive snaps but wasn't targeted during Sunday's 35-31 win over the Patriots.

The San Diego State product has now gone without a target in three of the Bills last four games. However, he still played the third-most offensive snaps amongst Buffalo wideouts during Sunday's loss, trailing Khalil Shakir (45) and Keon Coleman (38). Expect Shavers to continue playing a depth role in the Bills' receiving corps in the Week 16 matchup against the Browns.

Tinsley caught one of two targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Ravens.

The Penn State product operated as the Bengals' No. 3 wideout Sunday while Tee Higgins (concussion) was sidelined. However, Tinsley saw just two targets, with the vast majority of Cincinnati's receiving work going to Ja'Marr Chase and Chase Brown, who combined to catch 17 of 23 targets for 169 yards. Tinsley has now recorded eight receptions on 23 targets for 116 yards and two touchdowns through 14 appearances this season. He's likely to remain a depth option in the Bengals' receiver room in the Week 16 matchup against the Dolphins.

San Francisco head coach Kyle Shanahan said Monday that Pearsall played through ankle and knee injuries during Sunday's 37-24 win over Tennessee, Mike Masala of USA Today reports.

Shanahan said an update on Pearsall's health will arrive Monday and that the wide receiver "hurt the ankle on the first play and returned and played with that the whole game" Sunday, while his knee injury was "most likely irritating his PCL from the past." Pearsall secured six of seven targets for 96 yards versus the Titans, more production than in his last three appearances combined, but fantasy managers now will have to monitor his health heading into a Week 16 road matchup against the Colts. Shanahan, at least, said he expects Pearsall "to be alright."
