  • Devin Duvernay WR | ARI

    Ravens' Devin Duvernay: Shows flashes as rookie

    Duvernay had 20 catches for 201 yards on 26 targets and added four rushes for 70 yards as a rookie. He also ran one kick back for a touchdown.

    The rookie out of Texas was impressive on a per-target basis but consistent playing time was hard to come by. Duvernay finally cracked the receiver rotation after the Week 7 bye, averaging a 52 percent snap share over his next six games. He caught nine of 12 targets for 111 yards in that stretch but his snaps and production fell off a cliff down the stretch with one catch for no gain over his final four games. Looking long-term, this was not a disappointing season for Duvernay and there is plenty of room for development in Year 2. Duvernay will have a better chance at surpassing Miles Boykin for the No. 2 role out wide with a year of NFL experience under his belt. There's also the distinct possibility that neither Dez Bryant nor Willie Snead will be back next season, so there should be a path for Duvernay to find his way onto the fantasy radar.

  • Miles Boykin WR | CHI

    Ravens' Miles Boykin: Long touchdown in rout

    Boykin had one catch for 43 yards and a touchdown on two targets in Sunday's win over the Bengals.

    Boykin made the most of his only catch with a season-long 43-yard reception that also set his single-game season high for receiving yards. 2020 wasn't smooth sailing for Boykin as far as his development goes; he went from a rookie season with 13 catches for 198 yards and three touchdowns on 22 targets and 433 snaps to 19 catches for 266 yards and four touchdowns on 33 targets and 546 snaps. Boykin maintains an extremely low target rate per snap despite Baltimore struggling to find much production in the passing game beyond Mark Andrews and Marquise Brown. The Ravens face the Titans on Sunday in the AFC wild-card round.

  • Isaiah Coulter WR | BUF

    Texans' Isaiah Coulter: Active but DNP

    Coulter did not play in Houston's season-ending loss to the Titans on Sunday.

    The Texans expended decent draft capital on Coulter, selecting him in the fifth round of the 2020 draft, but he barely touched the field, getting just six snaps and no targets in a Week 14 loss to the Bears. It wasn't a good sign that he was edged out for playing time by practice squad players when the Texans were desperate for bodies at wideout over the final weeks of the season. The Texans are interested in re-signing Will Fuller (suspension), who becomes an unrestricted free agent during the offseason, and have veterans Brandin Cooks, Randall Cobb and Keke Coutee on existing contracts, so there may not be a spot for Coulter in 2021. The organization will have a new general manager and head coach though, who presumably will want to shape the roster as they see fit.

  • Gabe Davis WR | BUF

    Bills' Gabriel Davis: Finishes regular season strong

    Davis caught two of five targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Dolphins.

    The rookie continues to be worked into the offensive game plan, seeing at least five targets for the fourth straight game. Davis finishes his first regular season with a 35/599/7 line on 62 targets, not bad at all considering his fourth-round status and some of the weapons in front of him. Davis may be counted on with regularity in the postseason, especially if Cole Beasley has trouble regaining full health from a knee injury.

  • Kirk Merritt WR | NO

    Kirk Merritt: Lands on practice squad

    Merritt reverted back to Miami's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Merritt was brought up from the practice squad ahead of Week 17, but he was ultimately inactive. He appeared in one game this season, playing seven snaps on special teams and one on offense.

  • Marcus Kemp WR | WAS

    Marcus Kemp: Lands back on practice squad

    Kemp reverted back to Miami's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    Kemp was on the field for 21 special-teams snaps Week 17. He appeared in 10 contests during the 2020 campaign, recording one catch for 11 yards.

  • Alex Bachman WR | LAR

    Giants' Alex Bachman: Entering 2021 league year a Giant

    Bachman signed a reserve/future contract with the Giants on Monday, Michael Eisen of the team's official site reports.

    Bachman was demoted to the practice squad Oct. 23 after fielding one offensive snap Week 7 against the Eagles, and he was never elevated to the active roster over the remainder of the season. Now having secured a spot with the organization heading into the new league year in March, Bachman will aim to elevate his way through the ranks of New York's WR depth chart.

  • Jason Moore WR | DET

    Chargers' Jason Moore: Staying in L.A.

    The Chargers signed Moore to a reserve/future contract Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

    The wideout made Week 4 and Week 8 appearances for Los Angeles, totaling 35 offensive snaps without receiving a touch. Moore's involvement during his 2019 Chargers campaign consisted of two receptions for 43 yards over five targets, a year in which he suited up for eight more regular-season contests.

  • Falcons' Laquon Treadwell: Ends season with two-catch outing

    Treadwell secured two of his three targets for 15 yards during Sunday's 44-27 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Treadwell was elevated from the Falcons' practice squad late in the year, tallying five consecutive game appearances between Weeks 13 and 17 after going without a single activation prior to December. An injury to Julio Jones (hamstring) opened up opportunities for the 2016 first-round pick, as he totaled six catches for 49 yards with a pair of touchdown catches during that stretch. Treadwell's contract is up in March, rendering his status with the organization unsettled as Atlanta remains without a new GM following the October firing of Thomas Dimitroff.

  • Broncos' Tyrie Cleveland: Has first multi-catch game

    Cleveland caught four of five targets for 45 yards during Sunday's 32-31 loss to Las Vegas.

    The rookie seventh-round pick entered Sunday with just two catches on the season and stepped up in a big way. All five of Cleveland's targets were on third down, and he converted three of them. The Florida product also converted a fourth third down by drawing a holding penalty. Cleveland definitely benefitted from the absence of fellow rookie KJ Hamler (concussion) and Tim Patrick (foot), but he showed promise heading into an offseason in which the bulk of Denver's young core of skill players will return.
