Slayton caught two of three targets for 14 yards and lost a fumble Sunday in a 38-10 win over the Colts.

Slayton entered Week 17 having averaged 68.3 receiving yards in seven contests since New York's Week 9 bye, but he couldn't get much going against Indianapolis. His final catch and target came on the first play of the third quarter, when he hauled in a short pass but coughed up the football to the dismay of a clearly frustrated head coach Brian Daboll. The Giants nonetheless went on to win the game to clinch a playoff berth, and with nothing to gain against Philadelphia in Week 18, it remains to be seen how long (if at all) they'll deploy Slayton and their other starters.

Williams recorded seven receptions on 10 targets for 94 yards in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Rams.

Williams had been reliant upon big plays while commanding limited targets in three weeks since his return from an ankle injury entering Sunday's game. However, he managed more targets than Keenan Allen in Sunday's blowout win and also managed several long gains of 26, 19 and 18 yards. While he's found the end zone only once, Williams has 353 yards combined across his last four games.

Allen recorded five receptions on six targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Rams. He added one rush for eight yards.

Allen entered Sunday's game having recorded at least 85 yards in five of his last six contests, though he turned in a relatively poor performance due to game script. He salvaged his day thanks to a 28-yard catch late in the third quarter, and he now has at least one reception of more than 20 yards in each of his last three matchups. If the Ravens defeat the Steelers on Sunday Night Football, Allen will likely see the field in Week 18 with playoff seeding still at stake.

Pringle failed to catch any of his four targets in the Bears' 41-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Pringle had more than two targets for the first time in the nine games he's played this season, though this was the first time in three games he hasn't recorded at least 34 yards. He'll be considered a low-upside fantasy option in Week 18 against the Vikings.

Pettis failed to catch his lone target in the Bears' 41-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Pettis has surpassed 20 yards once since Week 1, though he has scored four touchdowns this season. He'll be considered a touchdown-dependent dart throw for fantasy in Week 18 against Minnesota.

Harry caught one pass for 16 yards in the Bears' 41-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Harry caught one of the seven passes that Justin Fields completed in this game, and he's averaging one reception over the six games he's played this season. His limited role in the offense will make him difficult to trust in Week 18 fantasy lineups when he faces the Vikings.

St. Brown caught two passes for 20 yards in the Bears' 41-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

St. Brown has posted at least 20 yards in four of his last five games, but he's only surpassed 25 yards just once since Week 8, and his lack of volume will make him a low-upside fantasy option in Week 18 against the Vikings.

Jones rushed once for 13 yards in the Bears' 41-10 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Jones was also targeted once, though the pass fell incomplete. Aside from his kick-return duties, Jones has just six receptions and eight rushing attempts on the season, and his lack of volume will make him tough to trust in Week 18 fantasy lineups.

Thornton brought in three of seven targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' 23-21 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

The rookie speedster was the somewhat surprising leader in receiving yards and checked in second in targets for the Patriots on the afternoon. Thornton's touchdown grab came just past the midway point of the first quarter on a seven-yard catch, only the second score of his first pro season. Thornton's receiving yardage tally was also a career high, and he could once again play an important role in a critical Week 18 road battle versus the Bills.

Campbell brought in three of six targets for 52 yards and rushed once for one yard in the Colts' 38-10 loss to the Giants on Sunday.

Campbell led the Colts in receiving yardage thanks almost entirely to a 49-yard grab. The speedster has been blessed with an extended stretch of good health for the first time in his career this season, and he'll look to build on what was his best receiving yardage total since Week 11 in the regular-season finale versus the Texans at home.
