Chris Olave WR | NO
Saints' Chris Olave: Hauls in 53-yard touchdown
Olave caught five of six targets for 102 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 27-20 victory versus the Rams.
Olave led the Saints in receptions and receiving yards with the team's pass-catching corps at full strength outside of Deonte Harty (foot) and Michael Thomas (toe), who are both out on IR. After catching his lone target of the first half for 12 yards, the first-round rookie logged three receptions of 14 yards or more in the second half. Olave also reeled in a 53-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Andy Dalton in the third quarter, marking the wideout's longest reception of the season. This game represents a resurgent performance for Dalton and the entire New Orleans' passing offense, though it could be tough replicating these results next week against the 49ers.

Alec Pierce WR | IND
Colts' Alec Pierce: Weak production on eight targets
Pierce caught three passes for 28 yards on eight targets against Philadelphia on Sunday.
Pierce's target count was encouraging, and his weak efficiency is rationalized by the fact that it was a very difficult matchup. Pierce saw a lot of Darius Slay, the top Eagles corner and one of the league's best corners in general. The Steelers don't have any such cover men on their defense, so Pierce has a good chance to get back on track against Pittsburgh in Week 12.

Van Jefferson WR | WAS
Rams' Van Jefferson: Three grabs in Week 11 loss
Jefferson brought in three of five targets for 41 yards in the Rams' 27-20 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Jefferson was just behind co-leaders Allen Robinson and Tyler Higbee in receptions in the Rams' first game without Cooper Kupp (ankle). The speedy third-year wideout should continue to enjoy a progressively elevated role in coming weeks, but the fact Matthew Stafford was forced to re-enter concussion protocol Sunday casts doubt over the entirety of the air attack's potential for a Week 12 road battle against the Chiefs.

Chase Claypool WR | BUF
Bears' Chase Claypool: Quiet in losing effort
Claypool caught two passes on three targets for 11 yards in the Bears' 27-24 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.
In three games with Chicago, Claypool has five catches for 32 yards, and he has only five targets over the last two weeks. With Darnell Mooney and Cole Kmet seeming to be bigger priorities in the Bears' low-volume passing attack, Claypool remains a risky fantasy option.

Allen Robinson WR | DET
Rams' Allen Robinson: Finds end zone in loss
Robinson secured four of five targets for 47 yards and a touchdown in the Rams' 27-20 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
Robinson tied for the team lead in receptions alongside Tyler Higbee and also checked in second in receiving yards. Robinson found the end zone for the third time this season on a six-yard touchdown grab just before the end of the first half. Robinson is in line to serve as the de facto top target during Cooper Kupp's (ankle) absence, but with Matthew Stafford now back in concussion protocol, it remains to be seen who the veteran wideout will be working with in a Week 12 road showdown against the Chiefs.

Equanimeous St. Brown WR | SF
Bears' Equanimeous St. Brown: Hauls in both targets
St. Brown caught two passes for 24 yards in the Bears' 27-24 loss to the Falcons on Sunday.
St. Brown has surpassed 25 yards on just two occasions this season, and he hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 1. Unless his role changes, he'll be a fantasy option with both a low floor and ceiling each week.
-
Parris Campbell WR | DAL
Colts' Parris Campbell: Maintains momentum
Campbell caught five passes for 67 yards on six targets against Philadelphia on Sunday.
Campbell has been rather busy in Matt Ryan's last four starts, drawing 38 targets and turning them into 29 catches for 270 yards and three touchdowns (76.3 percent catch rate, 7.1 yards per target). So long as Ryan remains the Indianapolis starting quarterback, Campbell might continue to turn a corner. He'll try to keep rolling against Pittsburgh in Week 12.

Braxton Berrios WR | NYG
Jets' Braxton Berrios: Targeted once in Week 11
Berrios didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 10-3 loss to New England.
Berrios added a 21-yard kick return and nine yards on two punt returns. He narrowly avoided disaster when he muffed a punt with less than two minutes remaining and the game tied at three, but Berrios' fumble rolled out of bounds. It turned out to be only a matter of time until disaster struck on special teams for the Jets, as New England scored the game-winning touchdown on a punt return in the final minute. Berrios has played more on special teams than offense of late, though it's worth noting that the Jets' Week 12 opponent will be a Bears team that just allowed a kickoff return touchdown to Atlanta's Cordarrelle Patterson.

Amon-Ra St. Brown WR | DET
Lions' Amon-Ra St. Brown: Gains 80 yards in win
St. Brown hauled in seven of eight targets for 76 yards and rushed once for four yards in Sunday's 31-18 win over the Giants.
St. Brown did the heavy lifting for Detroit's passing game, pacing the team in all passing categories in an upset victory. The Lions' rushing attack took care of all of the scoring with four touchdowns from in close, much to the chagrin of St. Brown's fantasy managers. That seems to be a recurring theme for the star wideout, who has been held scoreless since visiting the end zone three times in the first two games of the campaign. St. Brown still carries a solid 56/594/3 line heading into a Thanksgiving matchup against the Bills on Thursday.
-
Michael Pittman WR | PIT
Colts' Michael Pittman: Strong showing in tough matchup
Pittman caught six passes for 75 yards on seven targets against Philadelphia on Sunday.
Pittman did a good job in a tough matchup, providing almost automatic returns despite facing difficult coverage from Philadelphia's standout boundary corners. Pittman is almost always a central piece of the Colts' game plan, and the same should prove true against Pittsburgh in Week 12.
