  • Tyreek Hill WR | MIA

    Dolphins' Tyreek Hill: Hits century mark against Packers

    Hill caught four of six targets for 103 yards in Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Packers.

    The Dolphins' offense could do nothing wrong in the first half and almost nothing right in the second, otherwise Hill might have put together an even bigger performance. It's the speedster's seventh 100-yard game of the season, but he remains behind Justin Jefferson in the race for the NFL receiving yards crown heading into a Week 17 road clash with the Patriots.

  • Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE

    Broncos' Jerry Jeudy: New season high in receiving yards

    Jeudy had six receptions (10 targets) for 117 yards in Sunday's 51-14 loss to the Rams.

    Jeudy was the lone bright spot in yet another forgettable performance from the Broncos offense. The 23-year-old put his route-running skills on full display when he ran a crisp sluggo that beat two Los Angeles defenders for a 36-yard gain. Jeudy set a new high-water mark in receiving yards with this standout effort, bringing his season total up to 780 yards through 13 starts. The Broncos will face the Chiefs on Jan. 1, and Jeudy will match up with a defense that he torched for three touchdowns when they met in Week 14.

  • 49ers' Ray-Ray McCloud: Rips off huge TD run

    McCloud broke off a 71-yard touchdown run and did not catch his lone target in Saturday's 37-20 win over Washington.

    McCloud did his best Deebo Samuel (knee/ankle) impression when he took a wide zone handoff for a 71-yard touchdown. It was the return specialist's fourth rushing attempt this season, with the previous three tallying just seven yards back in Week 14. McCloud's usage as a receiver hasn't increased in the two games sans Samuel, so this unique touchdown run shouldn't have fantasy managers rushing to the waiver wire ahead of San Francisco's Week 17 matchup against Las Vegas.

  • Romeo Doubs WR | NE

    Packers' Romeo Doubs: Three grabs in Sunday's win

    Doubs caught three of six targets for 36 yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Dolphins.

    The rookie saw similar volume to what he did last week in his return from an ankle injury, finishing behind Christian Watson and Allen Lazard in catches and targets. Watson left at halftime with a hip injury, however, and if he's sidelined in Week 17, Doubs could see his role grow against a Vikings secondary that's been vulnerable almost all year.

  • Jauan Jennings WR | MIN

    49ers' Jauan Jennings: Disappoints in start

    Jennings had two receptions (three targets) for 21 yards in Saturday's 37-20 win over Washington.

    Jennings received another start in place of the injured Deebo Samuel (knee/ankle), logging 46 offensive snaps (88 percent) and finishing third in team targets. The 25-year-old did not experience an increase in production despite seeing his regular snap count double in these two starts. Samuel's earliest timetable could have him returning ahead of a Week 17 matchup against the Raiders. If he is not ready to return, Jennings would garner another start -- with limited upside -- on New Year's Day.

  • Allen Lazard WR | NYJ

    Packers' Allen Lazard: Leading receiver against Miami

    Lazard caught five of 11 targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Dolphins.

    Christian Watson (hip) had a big first half before getting hurt, so Lazard wound up leading the Packers in targets and receiving yards while finishing one reception behind Watson. If the rookie wideout isn't ready to go for Week 17 against the Vikings, Lazard figures to be Aaron Rodgers' top option against a Minnesota secondary that has been vulnerable almost all year.

  • Buccaneers' Breshad Perriman: Won't suit up Sunday

    Perriman (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Perriman won't suit up for a third straight game despite being healthy. It appears Deven Thompkins, who's mostly operated as a return man, has surpassed Perriman on the depth chart, though Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, Julio Jones, Russell Gage and Scotty Miller figure to continue dominating the wideout snaps.

  • Marquise Brown WR | PHI

    Cardinals' Marquise Brown: Suiting up in Week 16

    Brown (groin) is active for Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    After his addition to the injury report Thursday, Brown wrapped up Week 16 with back-to-back capped sessions due to a groin issue, resulting in a questionable listing ahead of Sunday. It won't stop him from suiting up this weekend, but he'll be working with Trace McSorley under center with Kyler Murray (knee) on IR and Colt McCoy (concussion) unavailable. As such, Brown doesn't have an ideal setup as he looks to build upon the 57-584-3 line on 88 targets that he's put together in nine appearances this season.

  • Broncos' Brandon Johnson: Inactive Sunday

    Johnson (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Rams.

    Johnson caught three of his four targets for 30 yards in last week's win over the Cardinals, but with Courtland Sutton (hamstring) back in the mix Sunday, he's the odd man out in the Broncos' Week 16 wideout corps.

  • Packers' Christian Watson: Ruled out Sunday

    Watson (hip) won't return to Sunday's game in Miami.

    Watson put together a productive first half, gathering in six of eight targets for 49 yards. However, he emerged from halftime as questionable to return due to a hip issue, which will end his Week 16 after all. With Watson in street clothes for the rest of Sunday, the Packers will be down to Allen Lazard, Romeo Doubs, Randall Cobb and Samori Toure at wide receiver.
