Cooper went without a target while playing three of the Eagles' 72 snaps on offense in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.

The undrafted rookie out of Tarleton State was active for the third game in a row but is still in search of his first career reception. He finished a distant fourth among Philadelphia wideouts in playing time Week 11, with his four percent snap share trailing DeVonta Smith (97), A.J. Brown (93) and Jahan Dotson (32).

Tolbert played 12 of the Cowboys' 67 snaps on offense and failed to haul in his lone target in Monday's 33-16 win over the Raiders.

Tolbert's role on offense has continued to dissipate; he's now played fewer than 20 percent of Dallas' snaps in three straight games. His 18 percent share Monday placed him fifth among Cowboys receivers, trailing CeeDee Lamb (73), George Pickens (67), Ryan Flournoy (43) and KaVontae Turpin (34).

Turpin recorded one catch for zero yards on two targets and returned one punt for 14 yards and four kickoffs for 111 yards in Monday's 33-16 win over the Raiders.

For the first time in eight appearances on the season, Turpin failed to account for any yards from scrimmage. Though the two-time Pro Bowl returner will continue to make his greatest impact for Dallas on special teams, he looks like he'll still be a part-time contributor on offense as a gadget player. He was on the field for 23 of the Cowboys' 67 offensive snaps Monday, placing him fourth among wideouts behind CeeDee Lamb, George Pickens and Ryan Flournoy.

Flournoy hauled in his lone target for a two-yard touchdown in Monday's 33-16 win over the Raiders.

Though he finished with his second-lowest yardage output since Week 3, Flournoy was able to find paydirt on his lone target for quarterback Dak Prescott's fourth and final passing score of the night. Flournoy drew a start while CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens were benched for the opening drive in a coach's decision, but Lamb and Pickens still ended up handily leading Dallas receivers in playing time. The 26-year-old took the field for 29 of the Cowboys' 67 offensive snaps, with his 43 percent share narrowly placing him ahead of KaVontae Turpin (34 percent) for third among wideouts.

Thornton caught one of his two targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 22-19 loss to the Broncos.

Thornton made one big play Sunday, catching a 61-yard deep ball from Patrick Mahomes in the third quarter. The 25-year-old wideout has proven he can make explosive plays when called upon by Kansas City, but he has seen his snap counts decrease since teammate Rashee Rice returned from his six-game suspension in Week 7. In Week 11, Thornton played just 16 of the Chiefs' 70 offensive snaps, the fewest of any Chiefs wide receiver. Based on his limited usage in the Kansas City's aerial attack, the Baylor product remains difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. With that said, Thornton will look to make the most of his opportunities again in Week 12 when the Chiefs host the Colts.

Worthy caught three of five targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 22-19 loss to the Broncos.

Worthy caught three catches for the second straight game, but like in his last outing, was unable to get much going with his touches. The second-year wideout has not been a significant factor in Kansas City's passing game with teammate Rashee Rice in the lineup, despite Worthy averaging around six targets per game since Rice's return from suspension. Worthy has not had many breakout performances this season, but does typically offer a decent floor based on his involvement in the Chiefs offense. The 22-year-old will look to turn things around from his underwhelming day in Denver when the Chiefs host the Colts in Week 12.

Collins' enhanced production over the last two weeks is partially due to being deployed more often in the slot, Sam Warren of the Houston Chronicle reports. He's accumulated 16 catches on 25 targets for 228 yards and a touchdown during a two-game winning streak.

Collins has been a key factor in the Texans getting to .500 for the season. A coaching decision to scheme him to get more open appears to have worked. During the two-game streak, he's been targeted seven times from the slot, more than he had in his first seven games combined, and those targets have led to success. Collins caught a pivotal fourth-quarter pass for 22 yards in the Week 10 win over Jacksonville and had three catches for 31 yards from the slot, including a touchdown, in a Week 11 win over Tennessee. Collins and the Texans will be challenged to repeat that success this week in a Thursday night game against the Bills, who rank second in the NFL with 169.7 passing yards allowed per game.

Iosivas had three catches for 20 yards on four targets in Sunday's loss to the Steelers. He played 48 offensive snaps, good for a 74 percent share.

With teammate Ja'Marr Chase suspended for Week 12's game against the Patriots, Iosivas could draw more targets, though that will require him to gain more separation on his routes. Mitchell Tinsley might also see an uptick in playing time.

The NFL announced Tuesday that Chase's one-game suspension for unsportsmanlike conduct was upheld following an appeal.

Chase will sit out Sunday's game against the Patriots, and then return for a Thanksgiving Day game against the Ravens. With Chase out for Week 12, look for Tee Higgins to lead Bengals wideouts, both in targets and in attention from the New England secondary.

The Steelers signed Plumlee to the practice squad Tuesday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Plumlee is back with the Steelers two weeks after being cut from the practice squad. The 24-year-old out of UCF will be an option to be called up to the active roster if Pittsburgh requires depth at wide receiver.
