Mingo caught two of nine targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 28-6 loss to the Saints.

Mingo led the Panthers in targets but didn't do much with the volume, though much of the blame lies with quarterback Bryce Young's inaccuracy. Young's frequent misfires included a deep ball on which Mingo got behind the coverage for what should have been a long touchdown late in the first half. Mingo has at least six targets in each of the last five games, but the 2023 second-round draft pick is still searching for his first NFL touchdown heading into a Week 15 clash with the Falcons.

Thielen caught five of seven targets for 74 yards in Sunday's 28-6 loss to the Saints.

Thielen was the only player to top 26 receiving yards for the Panthers, as Bryce Young threw for only 137 yards on 36 pass attempts. After posting at least 82 scrimmage yards in four of his first six games with the Panthers and scoring four touchdowns over that span, Thielen hasn't reached 75 yards or found the end zone since. The veteran wide receiver remains the top option in Carolina's struggling passing game heading into a Week 15 home game against the Falcons.

Jefferson was forced out of Sunday's game against the Raiders with a first-half chest injury.

Prior to his departure from the contest in his first game back since coming off an IR stint due to a hamstring injury, Jefferson caught two of his three targets for 27 yards. In his absence, Jordan Addison, K.J. Osborn and Brandon Powell are slated to lead the Vikings' WR corps versus Las Vegas.

Pittman brought in eight of 11 targets for 95 yards in the Colts' 34-14 loss to the Bengals on Sunday. He also recorded a two-point conversion catch.

Pittman put together a signature performance that saw him once again serve as the busiest pass catcher on the Colts. The fourth-year pro led the team across the board in three major receiving categories, and he's now posted at least eight receptions in six straight games. Pittman will head into a Week 15 Saturday afternoon matchup against the Steelers just five receptions away from his first 100-reception campaign, as well as only 16 yards short of his second 1,000-yard season.

Brown (knee) failed to catch any of his five targets in Sunday's 30-6 loss to the Jets.

Houston's entire passing game was stifled by the stout Jets secondary, as C.J. Stroud (concussion) threw for only 91 yards before exiting in the fourth quarter. Brown has gone two games without a catch since returning from a two-game absence due to a knee injury. Nico Collins (calf) exited the game, and if Collins joins Tank Dell (lower leg) on the sidelines in Week 15 against the Titans, Brown could become the de facto No. 1 option among Houston's wide receivers, ahead of Robert Woods, John Metchie and Xavier Hutchinson. That distinction would be much more appealing if Stroud clears concussion protocol, as the entire Houston passing game would likely take a hit if backup Davis Mills starts under center.

Chase secured three of four targets for 29 yards in the Bengals' 34-14 win over the Colts on Sunday.

Chase tied with multiple teammates for the team lead in receptions and targets, but he was a distant fourth in receiving yards. The star wideout saw Jake Browning distribute the ball to nine different players overall, leaving Chase with his second-lowest yardage tally of the campaign. Sunday's disappointing day aside, Chase has already demonstrated plenty of rapport with Browning, so the receiver's fantasy prospects remain high in a Week 15 home matchup versus the Vikings.

London brought in 10 of 11 targets for 172 yards in the Falcons' 29-25 loss to the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also recorded a two-point conversion catch.

London led the Falcons across the board in receptions, receiving yards and targets, with some final padding on his numbers coming in the form of a 28-yard grab on Desmond Ridder's desperation heave as time ran out. London consistently did similar damage throughout the day, bedeviling the Buccaneers' secondary with several chunk gains, including a game-long 45-yard catch. London's catch and yardage numbers were also career highs, sending him into a Week 15 road matchup against the Panthers with plenty of momentum.

Wilson caught nine of 14 targets for 108 yards and added a three-yard run in Sunday's 30-6 win over the Texans.

Wilson had consecutive receptions of 16 and seven yards on New York's second and third offensive plays, but his only other contribution in the first half was a three-yard jet sweep in the second quarter to convert on fourth-and-1. He got going again coming out of halftime, catching three passes for 55 yards on the first drive of the second half to set up a 15-yard Randall Cobb touchdown. That touchdown opened the floodgates to a 30-point second half from the Jets, and Wilson ultimately set a season high in receiving yards while tying his season high in targets. Zach Wilson also threw for a season-high 301 yards, so New York's passing game is heating up heading into a Week 15 trip to Miami.

Duvernay (back) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Rams, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.comreports.

Duvernay stayed in the locker room after halftime and will not return due to back spasms. Justice Hill was on the field with the kick-return team in Duvernay's stead.

Eskridge (ribs) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.

The kick returner and depth receiver missed practice Thursday, participated on a limited basis Friday and carried a questionable tag into Sunday. Eskridge also missed Week 13 with the same injury. The third-year pro does not have a catch this season.
