  • Steelers' Ray-Ray McCloud: Racks up four receptions

    McCloud hauled in all four of his targets for 20 yards while also recording one carry for three yards in Sunday's 27-3 win over the Jaguars.

    McCloud was on the field 20 of the team's 75 offensive snaps Sunday and had a season-high 20 receiving yards. The 24-year-old has logged 14 receptions for 70 yards along with four rushes for 65 yards this season.

  • Michael Gallup WR | WAS

    Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Another quiet performance

    Gallup caught two of five targets for 29 yards in Sunday's win over the Vikings.

    With Andy Dalton back under center, the Cowboys' passing game was a little more potent, but Gallup still found himself taking a back seat to Amari Cooper and CeeDee Lamb. Gallup's numbers are down across the board this season, and things might not get any easier for him in Week 12 as Dallas faces a stingy Washington secondary on Thanksgiving.

  • Packers' Equanimeous St. Brown: Bumped down depth chart

    St. Brown hauled in his lone target for 23 yards in Sunday's loss to the Colts.

    St. Brown recorded his longest reception of the season Week 11, but the return of fellow wideout Allen Lazard knocked him down a spot on the depth chart, and he tallied about half as many snaps as he did the week before. St. Brown is safely ahead of Darrius Shepherd and Malik Taylor these days, but he should be viewed as the Packers' fourth receiver moving forward, which is hardly a fantasy-friendly role on any team, and even more so on one that rarely has more than three wideouts on the field at once.

  • Allen Lazard WR | NYJ

    Packers' Allen Lazard: Snap count limited in return

    Lazard was targeted four times and caught two passes for 18 yards in Sunday's loss to the Colts.

    Lazard was not expected to handle a full workload Sunday, and that indeed was the case, as he was on the field for a season-low 60 percent of the plays run by the Packers offense. He played 88 percent of the available snaps over the three games he appeared in before going down with a core muscle injury, so his playing time figures to pick up moving forward. Whether his production follows remains to be seen, but there's ample reason for optimism, as Lazard's averages of 18.1 YPC and 13.0 YPT -- albeit on only 21 total targets -- are among the best in the league.

  • Randall Cobb WR | NYJ

    Texans' Randall Cobb: Could hit IR

    Cobb (toe) is in danger of being placed on injured reserve, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.

    Cobb is expected to miss at least Thursday's game against the Lions due to the severity of his toe issue, and being placed on IR would rule him out for a minimum of two additional weeks. An absence of any length for the veteran slot man could open up additional playing time for Keke Coutee, who scored his first TD of the season during Sunday's 27-20 win over the Patriots.

  • Raiders' Bryan Edwards: Tallies one reception in loss

    Edwards caught one pass for one yard on two targets in Sunday's 35-31 loss to the Chiefs.

    Edwards was targeted on two of his nine offensive snaps, but he's seemingly still being eased back into action since his Week 9 return from ankle and foot injuries. The Falcons' secondary has been generous to opposing wide receivers this season, but Edwards remains behind Nelson Agholor, Henry Ruggs and Hunter Renfrow at wide receiver ahead of a Week 12 matchup in Atlanta.

  • Jakeem Grant WR | ATL

    Dolphins' Jakeem Grant: Nothing doing in Denver

    Grant caught two of six targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Broncos.

    Grant also had one carry for three yards and was held to just six punt return yards after having accumulated at least 50 in three of the last four games. He once again operated as the No. 2 receiver in place of Preston Williams (foot) and drew his highest target total of the season, but Grant was unable to capitalize on those opportunities versus the Broncos' defense. A Week 12 road matchup against the Jets will provide him, and Miami's aerial attack as a whole, with an opportunity to get right.

  • Keke Coutee WR | MIA

    Texans' Keke Coutee: Emerges in Week 11 win

    Coutee caught two of four targets for 10 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-20 win over New England.

    Eraly injuries to Randall Cobb (toe) and Kenny Stills (quadriceps) cleared the way for Coutee's biggest game of the season. He played a season-high 35 snaps (57 percent) and was targeted three times in the red zone. With a short week of preparation for Week 12 on Thursday in Detroit, Coutee could be the starting slot receiver against the Lions.

  • Cam Sims WR | CAR

    Football Team's Cam Sims: Held to 20 yards

    Sims caught both of his targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 20-0 win over the Bengals.

    Sims got the start and played 84 percent of offensive snaps, but he was targeted only twice on Alex Smith's 25 pass attempts. The 6-foot-5 wideout continues to be highly efficient with his limited opportunities, averaging 2.5 catches for 51.5 yards on 3.0 targets per game since he became a starter in Week 11. It's possible Sims loses some work if Dontrelle Inman (hamstring) returns for Thursday's game against Dallas.

  • Zay Jones WR | ARI

    Raiders' Zay Jones: Notches 18-yard reception in loss

    Jones caught his only target for 18 yards in Sunday's 35-31 loss to the Chiefs.

    Jones remains at the bottom of the pecking order at wide receiver for the Raiders, as he matched his season low of five offensive snaps on Sunday Night Football. If he's able to earn more playing time in Week 12, a favorable matchup against the Falcons awaits.
