Jennings had three receptions (on six targets) for 28 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-13 win over Atlanta.

The 49ers' No. 3 wideout logged his usual amount of offensive snaps (44 percent), but he was able to use his large frame (6-foot-3) on a quick slant route for a four-yard touchdown to bolster his fantasy day. Jennings has now scored two touchdowns over his last four contests, with both not coincidentally coming in the only two games where he saw red-zone targets. Jimmy Garoppolo may have figured out how to use his tallest rotation wideout closer to the goal line, but sporadic trips to the end zone aren't enough to offset the 24-year-old's low yardage output in his current role. Jennings is just a deep-league option heading into Thursday's matchup against the Titans.

Johnson has been elevated from the Raiders' practice squad in advance of Monday's game against the Browns.

Johnson will provide the Raiders' Week 15 wideout corps with some added depth behind Hunter Renfrow, Zay Jones, Bryan Edwards and DeSean Jackson. In that context, Johnson is off the fantasy radar until or unless he earns a steady role in the Las Vegas passing offense.

Zaccheaus caught both of his targets for 53 yards during Sunday's 31-13 loss to the 49ers.

Zaccheaus wasn't targeted in the first half, but on the Falcons' second drive of the third quarter, Matt Ryan found the 5-foot-8 wideout deep down the middle of the field for 49 yards. Russell Gage (11 targets) and Kyle Pitts (seven targets) continue to dominate the majority of Ryan's attention, as no one else saw more than two targets. As long as Calvin Ridley (personal) remains away from the team, Zaccheaus will likely garner plenty of snaps, but he hasn't proven to be a consistent fantasy option at any point this season.

Gallup caught three of five targets for 32 yards in Sunday's win over the Giants.

He finished third on the Cowboys in catches, targets and yards behind Dalton Schultz and CeeDee Lamb on an afternoon in which there was little pressure on the offense to air it out. Gallup has caught at least three passes in six straight games since returning to the lineup from a calf injury, giving him a solid floor heading into a Week 16 rematch with Washington.

Coach Brian Flores said Monday that Waddle (illness) will be activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list, Travis Wingfield of the Dolphins' official site reports.

Waddle missed Sunday's win over the Jets after testing positive for COVID-19 on Thursday, but the standout rookie receiver will be back at team facilities Monday. The timing of Waddle's clearance will allow him a full week of practice before facing the Saints on Monday Night Football in Week 16. Tua Tagovailoa's favorite target thus will rejoin a receiving corps also led by DeVante Parker and Mike Gesicki, while coach Brian Flores relayed Monday that Will Fuller (finger) has suffered "some setbacks" in his recovery and is not expected to return this season, per Daniel Oyefusi of the Miami Herald.

Bateman caught one of two targets for five yards in Sunday's 31-30 loss to the Packers.

This was a big dropoff for Bateman after he went for a career-high 103 yards Week 14 against the Browns. Mark Andrews and Marquise Brown accounted for 27 of the team's 39 targets, which left very few opportunities for the Ravens' other pass catchers. The silver lining is that Bateman logged a career high in snap percentage at 93 percent, so even though the rookie didn't draw many targets, he still was a fixture in the offense overall. The Ravens play at Cincinnati in Week 16, and if Lamar Jackson (ankle) is back behind center, Bateman should have a clearer path to production.

Duvernay caught all three of his targets for 13 yards Sunday against the Packers.

Duvernay was more efficient this time around after catching just two of five targets Week 14, but his overall effectiveness in the receiving game remained low. His snap count decreased significantly on offense, dropping from 47 to 22. In fact, this was Duvernay's lowest offensive snap count of the entire season. Rashod Bateman and Marquise Brown were the two receivers who played over 85 percent of the snaps, leaving few opportunities for Duvernay and other depth options to see the field outside of two-wide sets. Baltimore travels to Cincinnati for a pivotal game against the Bengals in Week 16.

Marshall didn't catch his only target in Sunday's 31-14 loss to the Bills.

Marshall played just eight offensive snaps while Brandon Zylstra featured for 54 plays, clearly evidencing the current pecking order of Carolina's third and fourth wideouts. Having dropped down the depth chart in an underwhelming offense, the rookie Marshall's fantasy value is severely restricted heading into the final three weeks of the campaign.

Claypool logged one carry for seven yards and was credited with 12 receiving yards on a lateral while failing to bring in his two targets in Sunday's 19-13 win over the Titans.

Claypool led the Steelers' pass catchers in last week's loss to the Vikings, but he failed to replicate his production in Week 15 as the team struggled to generate much offensive output. The 23-year-old has now secured 18 of 31 targets for 332 yards while rushing five times for 12 yards across the last five games. He has a slightly tougher matchup against Kansas City in Week 16.

Pascal caught one of two targets for 23 yards in Saturday's 27-17 win over New England.

Pascal's modest stat line was enough to lead the Colts in receiving yards, as the team took a page out of the Patriots' playbook against Buffalo and completed just five passes while trampling New England with the running game. After totaling a season-high 58 receiving yards in Week 9 against the Jets, Pascal has just six catches for 50 yards in five subsequent games.
