  • Texans' Brandin Cooks: Solid in return from injury

    Cooks recorded six receptions on seven targets for 59 yards in Week 15 against the Colts.

    Cooks returned to action after a one-game absence and tied for the team lead in targets. He was efficient in turning those targets into receptions, though he failed to get loose for any big gains. His longest reception of the day went for 16 yards, and he managed only two additional catches for double-digit yardage. Even so, his consistent volume bodes well for future weeks, particularly in a Week 16 matchup against the Bengals.

  • Marquise Brown WR | PHI

    Ravens' Marquise Brown: Breaks two big plays

    Brown recorded six receptions on seven targets for 98 yards in Week 15 against the Jaguars.

    Despite spending most of the week on the reserve/COVID-19 list, Brown managed his highest yardage total since Week 1. He did so primarily on the strength of explosive receptions of 44 and 28 yards. The only thing missing from the performance was a touchdown, though he had a target near the goal line and was also dragged down only four yards away from the end zone on a separate play. Brown will next draw a Week 16 matchup against the Giants.

  • Browns' KhaDarel Hodge: Suiting up against G-Men

    Hodge (hamstring) is active for Sunday night's game against the Giants, Jake Trotter of ESPN.com reports.

    The Prairie View A&M standout has missed each of the Browns' past two contests while recovering from a hamstring injury, but he's ready to make his return to the lineup on the primetime stage. With a combined six receptions for 104 yards over his two most recent appearances Weeks 11 and 12, Hodge slots in third on Cleveland's WR depth chart for Sunday night.

  • Jalen Reagor WR | MIA

    Eagles' Jalen Reagor: Picks up ankle injury

    Reagor (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Reagor secured five of eight targets for 49 yards before being forced out in the fourth quarter of Sunday's contest. The Eagles have only four remaining active receivers in Greg Ward, Alshon Jeffery, Travis Fulgham and Quez Watkins.

  • A.J. Brown WR | NE

    Titans' A.J. Brown: Hits double-digit touchdowns

    Brown recorded five receptions on six targets for 44 yards and a touchdown in Week 15 against the Lions.

    The wideout tied for the team lead with five receptions, though Ryan Tannehill continued to spread targets around to several different pass-catchers. Brown was unable to deliver his typical splash plays, as his longest catch of the day went for only 14 yards. Despite the down performance, Brown did manage to salvage the outing with a two-yard touchdown reception in the final quarter. Brown will likely be needed for more volume in Week 16 when the Titans attempt to keep pace with the Packers.

  • Tre'Quan Smith WR | DET

    Saints' Tre'Quan Smith: Injures ankle Sunday

    Smith (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chiefs, John DeShazier of the Saints' official site reports.

    Smith secured one of two targets for 25 yards before being forced out of Sunday's contest. With Michael Thomas (ankle) on IR, it will be a notable blow to New Orleans' receiving corps if Smith can't return. Behind Emmanuel Sanders, the Saints' only remaining wideouts are Juwan Johnson, Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Tommylee Lewis.

  • Corey Davis WR | NYJ

    Titans' Corey Davis: Scores long touchdown

    Davis recorded four receptions on six targets for 110 yards and a touchdown in Week 15 against the Lions.

    Davis jump-started the Titans offense with a 75-yard touchdown down the left sideline late in the first quarter. That accounted for the majority of his production, though he was also able to tack on a pair of additional 14-yard receptions. Overall, Davis turned in a nice bounce-back effort after flopping for a 34-yard performance in Week 14. He'll look to put together another 100-yard outing in Week 16 against Green Bay.

  • N'Keal Harry TE | SEA

    Patriots' N'Keal Harry: Manages one catch against Phins

    Harry caught one of two targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 22-12 loss to Miami.

    The second-year man was coming off one of his better showings of the season with a 49-yard receiving output against the Rams last Thursday night, but he followed by posting another subpar outing. Harry has exceeded 40 receiving yards on three occasions this season, but conversely, he's also been held to 15 or fewer yards six different times. The Arizona State product was also blanked in the catches department Weeks 6, 10 and 12, rendering him a shaky option for a Week 16 home test against Buffalo.

  • Damiere Byrd WR | BUF

    Patriots' Damiere Byrd: Pulls in three passes at Miami

    Byrd caught three of four targets for 24 yards during Sunday's 22-12 loss to the Dolphins.

    Byrd tied for second on the team in targets Sunday, but that statement doesn't necessarily carry much weight given that the 27-year-old operates within New England's 29th-rated passing offense. The South Carolina standout has accumulated multiple catches in five consecutive appearances, but he's been less than explosive with those opportunities, eclipsing the 35-yard mark in receiving just once since Week 12.

  • Jakobi Meyers WR | JAC

    Patriots' Jakobi Meyers: Eclipses century mark

    Meyers reeled in seven of 10 targets for 111 yards and lost one fumble during Sunday's 22-12 loss to Miami.

    Meyers' third-quarter giveaway didn't come back to haunt New England, as the Dolphins were forced into a punt just three plays later. With that in mind, the 24-year-old's Week 15 outing will go down as one of his most impressive of the 2020 campaign, as he eclipsed the century mark in receiving for the second time this season. A Week 16 matchup against Buffalo could allow Meyers to expand on a noteworthy Week 8 performance in a loss to the division rivals in which he notched six catches for 58 yards over 10 targets.
