Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE
Broncos' Jerry Jeudy: Another subpar performance
Jeudy caught two of six targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 24-7 win over the Chargers.
Jeudy thought he had a five-yard touchdown in the second quarter, but it was reversed upon review, as he failed to get his second foot down along the sideline despite seemingly having enough room to do so. He remains stuck on one touchdown in 2023, and Jeudy has posted 16 or fewer yards in two of his last three games. Jeudy will try to turn things around Saturday in Detroit, but it has been a disappointing season so far after he set career highs with 972 receiving yards and six touchdowns in 2022.

Calvin Ridley WR | TEN
Jaguars' Calvin Ridley: Little production with 13 targets
Ridley recorded four receptions on 13 targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Browns.
Ridley benefitted from the absence of Christian Kirk (groin) and saw a season-high 13 targets. However, he struggled to produce, as he averaged only 4.1 yards per target with a long gain of just 16 yards. Ridley's efficiency should have the chance to rebound in future weeks as Trevor Lawrence's (ankle) health improves and in easier matchups. That may not come in Week 15, however, as the Jaguars draw a tough matchup against the stingy Baltimore secondary.

Courtland Sutton WR | DEN
Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Seventh TD in last eight games
Sutton caught three of four targets for 62 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 24-7 win over the Chargers.
Most of Sutton's production came on a sensational 46-yard touchdown catch in the third quarter, which he made with one hand despite being interfered with. It was the 10th touchdown catch of the season for Denver's top receiver, who has scored in seven of his last eight games. Sutton will look to build on his recent success in Saturday's Week 15 matchup with the Lions.

Darnell Mooney WR | NYG
Bears' Darnell Mooney: Targeted seven times in win
Mooney caught two passes for 44 yards in the Bears' 28-13 win over the Lions on Sunday.
Mooney posted over 24 yards for the first time in four games. He also has failed to find the end zone since Week 1. Fantasy managers who use Mooney in lineups need to hope he hauls in a long pass, or his upside is limited.

Velus Jones Jr. RB | SEA
Bears' Velus Jones: Minimal usage in win
Jones caught one pass for 11 yards in the Bears' 28-13 win over the Lions on Sunday.
Jones has just four catches on the season while playing less than 15 percent of the offensive snaps. Unless his role changes, his scoring floor makes him difficult to use in fantasy lineups.

Puka Nacua WR | LAR
Rams' Puka Nacua: Five receptions in loss
Nacua recorded five receptions on eight targets for 84 yards in Sunday's 37-31 loss to the Ravens. He added one rush for six yards.
Nacua had a solid eight targets in the loss, though he was surprisingly given fewer opportunities than Demarcus Robinson. Nevertheless, he had a solid impact on the game, accounting for long gains of 34 and 23 yards. All told, Nacua now has at least 70 receiving yards in three of his four games since the Rams' Week 10 bye.

Deebo Samuel WR | SF
49ers' Deebo Samuel: Two more scores in win
Samuel caught seven of nine targets for 149 yards and a touchdown while scoring another touchdown on his lone carry of one yard in Sunday's 28-16 win over Seattle.
Samuel exploded for two more touchdowns a week after posting one of the best fantasy scores of his career by scoring thrice against the Eagles in Week 13. The 27-year-old did most of his damage lined up on the perimeter as a receiver, resulting in his third 100-yard game of the season and second in as many weeks. Samuel continued returning kickoffs in lieu of Ray-Ray McCloud (ribs) -- who was placed on IR this week -- returning two kicks for 42 yards in addition to his strong contributions on offense. Samuel's fantasy managers will enjoy the benefit of San Francisco's soft schedule to close the fantasy season, starting with a matchup against the 3-10 Cardinals next Sunday.

Quentin Johnston WR | LAC
Chargers' Quentin Johnston: Nears 100 yards receiving in loss
Johnston caught three of his four targets for 91 yards in the 24-7 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
It's been a dismal season for the Chargers and for the 2024 first-round pick, but quietly Johnston may be turning things around with his second consecutive game of 50-plus yards. A beautiful fourth-quarter 57-yard bomb in stride accounted for the majority of the wideout's yardage in a game in which Los Angeles trailed from the jump, but it's hard to discount the catch given Johnston has failed to make those exact kind of plays at various points this season. Quarterback Justin Herbert sustained an injury to a finger on his throwing hand, which could set the stage for Easton Stick to play Thursday to kick off the Week 15 slate.

DJ Moore WR | BUF
Bears' DJ Moore: Two touchdowns in victory
Moore recorded six receptions on 10 targets for 68 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-13 win over the Lions. He added three rushes for 20 yards and an additional touchdown.
Moore got involved in the offense immediately, as he capped the team's opening drive with a 16-yard rushing touchdown. However, he was held off the stat sheet for the rest of the half and didn't have a reception or target at halftime. That changed in the final two quarters, and he still managed to lead the team in targets, receptions and yards. Moore's day as a receiver was highlighted by a 38-yard touchdown catch late in the third quarter when he beat his defender deep for what ultimately became the game-winning touchdown. He now has a touchdown in two of his last three games and has 278 receiving yards in that same span.
