Skowronek caught one of three targets for three yards during Monday's 24-12 loss to the Packers.

Fantasy managers hoping for another standout performance from Skowronek after he erupted for a 7-89-0 line in Week 14 were greeted with a floor game fromthe second-year wideout, his second-worst performance of the season after a zero-catch day against the Buccaneers in Week 9. Baker Mayfield was under duress all night, taking a total of five sacks and throwing a bad pick that was targeted to Skowronek, and the chemistry the duo showed against the Raiders evaporated against a stout Green Bay defense. Mayfield faces an even more imposing defense in Week 16 when Denver comes to town, which makes gambling on Skowronek to bounce back a tall order.

Watson hauled in zero of two targets for zero yards during Sunday's 30-24 overtime victory versus the Texans.

Watson hasn't hauled in a pass in either of the last two games despite playing 60-plus percent of the snaps in each of them. He hasn't drawn more than two targets since Week 11, and there's little reason to roster him in any format at this point.

Atwell caught one of four targets for 10 yards and rushed once for minus-four yards during Monday's 24-12 loss to the Packers.

Despite being on the field for a nearly identical amount of snaps as he was last week, his six total yards of offense had to be a disappointment to fantasy managers after he displayed plenty of chemistry with Baker Mayfield and put up a respectable 5-50-0 line last week against the Raiders. Atwell's attempt at a jet sweep was snuffed out by Adrian Amos, and a 10-yard reception in the second quarter would be all the offense the speedster would muster on the day. The Rams seem intent on using Atwell more as the season nears an end, but an imposing Denver defense will make relying on him difficult in Week 16.

Powell caught one of two targets for four yards and rushed once for three yards during Monday's 24-12 loss to the Packers. He also returned one punt for eight yards and five kickoffs for 99 yards.

Powell's role in the offense has been sliding downward in recent weeks, even with Cooper Kupp (foot) and Allen Robinson (ankle) done for the year. With just seven snaps on offense against Green Bay, Powell recorded his lowest snap count since Week 10 against Arizona. On a positive note, Powell's 107 total return yards marked a season-high for the speedster, and he also managed two touches on his limited snaps after being shut out entirely during Week 14 against the Raiders.

Carter caught one of his two targets for 15 yards in the 17-14 win over the Titans on Sunday. He also lost 10 yards on his lone carry.

Carter has played a combined 28 offensive snaps since the return of both Mike Williams and Keenan Allen. At this point, the speedster's value lies solely in leagues that also account for return yardage, as Carter tallied a combined 70 yards on kick and punt returns.

Renfrow caught one pass for 14 yards on three targets in Sunday's 30-24 win over the Patriots. He also returned three punts for 20 yards.

Renfrow logged less than 30 of the Raiders' 68 offensive snaps in his return from the oblique injury that landed him on injured reserve for five weeks, and it was fellow slot receiver Keelan Cole that turned in the better fantasy performance, as the latter posted two receptions for 50 yards and the game-tying touchdown. However, Renfrow could see his workload increase against the Steelers in Week 16.

Cobb caught three of four targets for 32 yards in Monday's 24-12 win over the Rams.

Cobb maintained his slot role despite the return of Romeo Doubs (ankle), garnering four targets for the third consecutive game. Allen Lazard (one catch for seven yards) was the player who took the big hit in usage following the rookie wideout's return. Cobb still doesn't provide enough upside to warrant consideration in standard formats ahead of Sunday's tilt against Miami.

Doubs (ankle) caught all five of his targets for 55 yards in Monday's 24-12 win over the Rams.

Doubs returned from an ankle injury that cost him four weeks of action, promptly reclaiming a prominent role on offense while leading his team in receiving yards. Head coach Matt LaFleur hinted that the fourth-round pick would be eased back into action Monday with the Packers returning to full strength at the receiver position, but that plan was clearly thrown out the window once the game commenced. Christian Watson -- who emerged as Green Bay's No. 1 wideout in Doubs absence -- still led the team in targets and is the preferred fantasy option moving forward. That said, Doubs could be a sneaky play against the Dolphins on Sunday following his successful return to action.

Watson caught four of six targets for 46 yards in Monday's 24-12 win over the Rams.

Watson maintained his status as the Packers' No. 1 wideout despite the return of fellow rookie Romeo Doubs (ankle) from injured reserve. The 23-year-old Watson failed to extend his four-game scoring streak -- in which he produced a whopping seven touchdowns -- but he did lead the team in targets. Watson could have kept his impressive streak alive had he not ran an incorrect route on the Packers' final drive that would have resulted in a wide-open touchdown. With Green Bay's receiving corps getting back to full strength, a slight dip in usage should be expected for Watson moving forward. For now, the rookie remains a strong fantasy play heading into a road matchup against Miami that could produce a high point total.

Lazard brought in one of two targets for seven yards in the Packers' 24-12 win over the Rams on Monday night.

Lazard notably took a back seat to the rookie duo of Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson, who finished with a combined 9-101 line on 11 targets. Lazard's catch and yardage totals were both season lows for the fifth-year veteran, and the fact they came in a rare instance where both Doubs and Watson were available is worth at least keeping in mind. However, the Packers waived veteran Sammy Watkins earlier Monday, so Lazard should still have a solid amount of opportunities for targets during what remains of the regular season.
