Austin secured his lone target for five yards during Sunday's 34-12 win over the Bengals.

Austin had played at least 50 percent of the Steelers' offensive snaps in his first seven appearances of the season, but he was on the field for just 29 percent during Sunday's comfortable victory. The 2022 fourth-rounder was held to single-digit receiving yards for the first time this year, but Pittsburgh was playing without QB Aaron Rodgers (wrist) during the second half. Even if Austin's playing time bounces back down the stretch, he'll likely have limited fantasy upside as long as DK Metcalf remains healthy.

Patriots coach Mike Vrabel said Monday that he expects Boutte (hamstring) to take part in practice Wednesday, Evan Lazar of the team's official site reports.

The wideout practiced in a limited capacity prior to being ruled out against the Jets in Week 11 after previously sitting out Week 10 against Tampa Bay. In three appearances prior to injuring his hamstring, Boutte had tallied a tremendous 10-223-4 receiving line on 12 targets, and he'll face an exceptional matchup against the Bengals in Week 12 if he's able to retake the field.

Palmer caught two of five targets for 17 yards in the Bills' 44-32 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday.

It was Palmer's first action since Week 6, as he dealt with knee and ankle injuries. He played just 50 percent of the offensive snaps against Tampa Bay, the same amount as Curtis Samuel, as the duo worked behind both Khalil Shakir (54 percent) and Tyrell Shavers (54 percent) in a wide-receiver rotation that did not include Keon Coleman, who was inactive. In a Buffalo offense that spreads the ball around to 10 players most weeks, it's impossible to trust any of the team's pass-catchers behind Shakir and, when healthy, tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) as fantasy starters.

London (knee) has been diagnosed with a sprained PCL and is expected to miss next Sunday's game against the Saints, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

London also could miss additional time beyond that contest. With Atlanta's top wideout looking doubtful for Week 12, there would be additional pressure on Darnell Mooney to turn his poor season around, while David Sills, KhaDarel Hodge and Carlos Washington might see additional work. Falcons pass catchers will be working with Kirk Cousins moving forward after Michael Penix suffered a potentially season-ending knee injury in a Week 11 loss to the Panthers.

Hopkins had one catch for 11 yards on four targets Sunday against the Browns.

It was an inefficient day for Hopkins, who stepped into a starting role with Rashod Bateman sidelined. The veteran wideout played a season-high 41 snaps and drew four targets for the second week in a row. In fairness, Lamar Jackson was not sharp Sunday due to the weather in Cleveland and was constantly under duress, as he went just 14-for-25 for 193 yards and two picks. No Raven had more than three receptions. Hopkins gets a softer matchup in Week 12 against the Jets, so he could be on the radar in deeper leagues if Bateman is out again.

Harris caught his only target for 12 yards in the 35-6 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

Harris played his usual snap load, but with Los Angeles' offense in disarray and Jacksonville wholly dominating the line of scrimmage, the rookie never stood a chance from a fantasy perspective. The 2025 second-round pick has just nine targets in the last five games after seeing five total in Week 6 despite a typical cadence in terms of playing time.

Johnston failed to catch any of his three targets in a 35-6 drubbing at the hands of the Jaguars on Sunday.

Justin Herbert was pulled early in the second half after the Chargers were manhandled on both sides of the ball. The entirety of the team's passing attack took a hit, but none more so than Johnston, who just garnered 10 targets in Week 10 against the Steelers. It's fair to assume the Chargers will get back on track after their bye against the lowly Raiders in Week 13 , but with difficult matchups against teams like the Eagles and Texans looming after that, as well as divisional clashes with Denver and Kansas City, this might not be the only game that proves to be rough sledding for Johnston.

Westbrook-Ikhine was not targeted during Miami's 16-13 overtime win over the Commanders in Madrid on Sunday.

Westbrook-Ikhine played just 27 percent of offensive snaps versus Washington, his lowest total since Week 3. While Westbrook-Ikhine hasn't offered any notable fantasy value all season as he hasn't yet scored or surpassed 25 receiving yards in a game, this decline in usage effectively puts him off the radar even in the deepest of formats. After the Dolphins emerge from a Week 12 bye to face the Saints in Week 13, expect Malik Washington to remain solidified as the team's clear No. 2 wideout behind Jaylen Waddle.

Noel hauled in his lone target for 12 yards while adding 89 total return yards on five punts and two kickoffs in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Titans in Week 11.

Noel's production has been a roller coaster since Houston's Week 5 bye. In three of the last five contests, the rookie third-round pick has a combined 13 catches on 17 targets for 175 yards. In the two other games, Noel has one catch on one target for 12 yards. Noel's greatest contribution has been as a returner; he leads the team with a combined 457 returns yards (eight kickoffs, 23 punts).

Kirk secured one of four targets for six yards in Sunday's 16-13 win over Tennessee in Week 11.

Since returning in Week 9 from a second hamstring injury this season, Kirk has caught just six of 15 targets for a quiet 35 yards. He was expected to be the No. 2 wideout behind Nico Collins, but rookie Jayden Higgins (seven targets, four catches, 55 yards) out-produced Kirk for a second straight week. Over six games in 2025, Kirk has 16 catches on 31 targets for 144 yards and zero touchdowns.
