  • Roman Wilson WR | PIT

    Steelers' Roman Wilson: No catches in Week 12

    Wilson failed to secure either of his two targets during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Bears.

    Wilson had recorded at least one catch in each of his last six games, but he failed to establish a connection with quarterback Mason Rudolph in Chicago on Sunday. Wilson was also on the field for just 28 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps, which was his lowest mark since Week 6. He's shown some glimpses of production this season but hasn't been a very reliable fantasy option.

  • Josh Downs WR | IND

    Colts' Josh Downs: Just two receptions in loss

    Downs had two receptions for 10 yards on six targets in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.

    Downs again took a back seat to Michael Pittman and Tyler Warren (five receptions each) in the intermediate passing game. After recording touchdowns in three consecutive games, Downs has just three receptions for 13 yards his last two games. He'll face a tough matchup against a stout defense next week against Houston.

  • Tee Higgins WR | CIN

    Bengals' Tee Higgins: Ruled out for Week 13

    Coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Higgins (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday night's game against the Ravens, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.

    Higgins sustained a concussion late in Sunday's loss to the Patriots after smacking the back of his head on the turf while attempting to make a leaping catch. With Higgins out and Ja'Marr Chase set to return from his one-game suspension, the Bengals will likely trot out a wideout group of Chase, Andrei Iosivas, Mitchell Tinsley and Charlie Jones versus Baltimore. Higgins will then have 10 more days to heal up ahead of a Week 14 date with the Bills on Sunday, Dec. 7.

  • Ashton Dulin WR | IND

    Colts' Ashton Dulin: Grabs 48-yard reception in loss

    Dulin had one reception for 48 yards on his only target in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.

    Dulin played nine snaps on offense. He's taken over as the clear fourth receiver after the trade of Adonai Mitchell, but has just two targets over his last four games. He's still a star on special teams where he gets the most usage.

  • Anthony Gould WR | IND

    Colts' Anthony Gould: Makes impact in return game

    Gould had three punt returns for a 16.3-yard average and one kickoff return for 26 yards in Sunday's loss at Kansas City.

    Gould hasn't played since Week 8 due to a knee injury. He made an impact in the return game setting up the Colts with good field position on several returns, including a 26-yard punt return. He didn't play any snaps on offense as he's rarely used a receiver.

  • Jalen Nailor WR | MIN

    Vikings' Jalen Nailor: No receptions in loss

    Nailor did not have a catch on his lone target in Sunday's loss at Green Bay.

    Nailor played on 20 of the offense's 44 snaps, which was a little lower than his usual participation rate. However, it's hard to read too much into his performance given the historically inept performance of J.J. McCarthy (87 yards passing, two interceptions and 17.9 QBR). Nailor and the passing game have another tough matchup next week at Seattle. It's hard to envision any Minnesota receivers having fantasy relevance if McCarthy continues to struggle like his last two games.

  • Darius Cooper WR | PHI

    Eagles' Darius Cooper: First receptions of 2025 in loss

    Cooper caught both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.

    The Tarleton State product played 12 offensive snaps and operated as the Eagles' No. 4 wideout in the Week 12 loss. He finished with the sixth-most receiving yards on the team, ahead of Jahan Dotson (who went without a catch on one target). Cooper has appeared in just seven games this season, contributing on both offense (72 snaps) and special teams (37 snaps). He's expected to play a similar role in the Week 13 matchup against the Bears.

  • Jahan Dotson WR | PHI

    Eagles' Jahan Dotson: No catches in Week 12

    Dotson failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.

    The 2022 first-round pick was targeted just once and went without a catch for the third time in the Eagles' last five games during Sunday's loss. Dotson has appeared in all 11 of Philadelphia's games this season, catching 10 of 18 targets for 194 yards and a touchdown across 359 offensive snaps. He's expected to operate as the Eagles' No. 3 wideout but carry minimal fantasy value in the Week 13 matchup against the Bears.

  • Tutu Atwell WR | LAR

    Rams' Tutu Atwell: Expected back in Week 13

    Rams coach Sean McVay said Monday that Atwell (hamstring) will have his 21-day practice window opened Wednesday, and the wideout is expected to be available for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

    Atwell will return from IR when first eligible, as McVay had previously hinted. He hasn't played since Week 7 while recovering from a hamstring issue, but even if Atwell is on something of a snap count in his return, he figures to handle his usual ancillary role behind Puka Nacua and Davante Adams in Los Angeles' wide receiver corps.

  • Adam Thielen WR | MIN

    Vikings' Adam Thielen: Another drop in loss

    Thielen had a drop on his only target in Sunday's loss at Green Bay. He played just three snaps on offense.

    Thielen has dropped a pass in consecutive games and has three this season, according to Pro Football Focus. He's arguably failed to secure more catchable balls than he has receptions (eight) this season. With Minnesota falling out of playoff contention, Thielen may see little playing time the rest of the season.
