Allen recorded six receptions for 52 yards on eight targets in Sunday's 35-32 overtime loss to the Raiders.

Allen compiled 25 of his 52 receiving yards on the team's 19-play, 83-yard drive to end regulation, but that essentially counted for all of the veteran's big-play production. Allen finished the 2021 campaign with his fifth consecutive 130-plus target season and also registered 1,100-plus receiving yards and at least 100 receptions for the fourth time in the last five years despite the emergence of Mike Williams and gradual improvement from rookie Joshua Palmer. While Williams became the first Chargers wide receiver to have more receiving yards than Allen since Tyrell Williams back in 2016, the multi-time Pro Bowler was still Justin Herbert's most reliable target and will remain a top option in PPR leagues entering next season.

Renfrow caught four of five targets for 13 yards and two touchdowns while rushing once for a four-yard loss in Sunday's 35-32 overtime win over the Chargers.

The Chargers expended extra resources to bottle up the Raiders' top wideout, which helps explain such a low yardage total. Thankfully for his fantasy managers, two of the times Renfrow was able to break free of tight coverage resulted in touchdowns. The 25-year-old experienced a breakout campaign in 2021, finishing with 103 receptions for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns while playing in all 17 regular-season contests. Expect Renfrow to remain one of Las Vegas' top offensive options heading into a playoff matchup against the Bengals.

Williams registered nine receptions for 119 yards and a touchdown across 17 targets in Sunday's 35-32 overtime loss to the Raiders.

It's a bit ironic that Williams tallied his most receiving yards since Week 5 in the team's finale, especially considering the big-bodied target appeared to be one of the league's breakout starts through the first month of the campaign only to completely tail off as the season progressed. While the Raiders would ultimately come away with the playoff-securing win, Williams' 12-yard reception on the final play of regulation put the game into extras, and his 47-yard reception during the Chargers' lone overtime possession was paramount in setting up the game-tying field goal. While the 2017 first-round pick slumped considerably following his scintillating start, Williams easily put together his most complete year as a professional, recording season highs in receptions (76), targets (129), receiving yards (1,146) and receptions of 40-plus yards (nine). That should net Williams, an unrestricted free agent this offseason, a pretty payday from someone -- with the Chargers and their sixth-highest-available cap space likely first in line.

Harris recorded three receptions on four targets for 24 yards in Sunday's 30-20 win over the Falcons.

Harris finished second on the team in targets and receptions behind only Tre'Quan Smith. However, that translated into subpar production as the Saints took to the air only 24 times as opposed to 46 rushing attempts. Harris had an inconsistent season marred by a three-game suspension, time on the reserve/COVID-19 list and a hamstring injury. However, when on the field he emerged as a big-play threat by logging five receptions of 20 or more yards and four receptions that gained at least 40 yards. The Saints could overhaul their offensive personnel this offseason, meaning Harris' potential role in 2022 remains unclear.

Davis caught three of 14 targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Jets.

The second-year wideout tied Stefon Diggs for the team lead in targets on the day, but Davis did far less with the volume than Buffalo's No. 1 receiver. He wraps up the regular season with 35 catches on 63 targets for 549 yards and six TDs, numbers nearly identical to his production as a rookie, and Davis' role in the postseason will depend largely on the health of Emmanuel Sanders (knee), who sat out three of the Bills' last four games.

Diggs caught nine of 14 targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-10 win over the Jets.

He opened the scoring early in the first quarter on a 10-yard strike from Josh Allen, giving Diggs a career-high 10 TDs on the season. He also surpassed 100 receptions for the third time in the last four seasons, winding up with 103 catches on 164 targets for 1,225 yards. Diggs should be heavily involved again Saturday when the Bills host the Patriots in the wild-card round.

Cole caught all three of his targets for 54 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Bills.

His 40-yard TD catch in the second quarter was the only real highlight on the day for the Jets, and Cole wound up being the only New York player with more than one reception. It was the 28-year-old's first touchdown of the season, and he wraps up the campaign with 28 catches on 51 targets for 449 yards, numbers that likely won't attract more than mild interest on the free-agent market this offseason.

Smith-Marsette recorded three catches on three targets for 103 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-17 win over the Bears.

Smith-Marsette has had the chance for more consistent snaps in the last few games with Adam Thielen (ankle) sidelined. He did not record a target or reception in Week 17 but exploded for huge gains of 44, 40 and 19 yards to record the first 100-yard game of his career in Sunday's win. Even with the explosive effort, Smith-Marsette figures to enter the 2022 campaign buried on the wide receiver depth chart behind at least Justin Jefferson, Thielen and K.J. Osborn.

Jennings had six receptions (seven targets) for 94 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Rams.

Jennings saved his best game for the regular-season finale, as his two-touchdown performance helped propel the 49ers to an upset victory than landed his team in the playoffs. The 23-year-old hadn't topped three receptions, 46 yards or one touchdown in any of his previous 15 appearances this season, but he crushed each of those categories in one fell swoop against the Rams. Jennings has shown soft hands to complement his large frame (6-foot-3, 212 pounds), but it would be surprising if he managed to produce anything close to this monster performance in next week's playoff tilt against the Cowboys in his current role as the No. 3 wideout in San Francisco.

Perriman brought in five of six targets for 44 yards in the Buccaneers' 41-17 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

Perriman tied for second in receptions among the team's wideout group, putting together a solid performance ahead of the start of the postseason. The journeyman has been a serviceable part of the air attack in recent weeks as the pass-catching corps has endured notable attrition, but Sunday's outing was his best yet in terms of number of receptions. Given his experience, Perriman could slot in as the No. 2 wideout for next Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Eagles.
