  • Robert Foster WR | NYG

    Bills' Robert Foster: Healthy inactive

    Foster (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday's contest against the Texans.

    The Bills opted to activate Duke Williams for the pivotal contest, relegating Foster to the bench. The speedy playmaker has essentially been bypassed by Williams on the depth chart, and he has failed to log a reception in each of the last four games.

  • Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Shows WR1 ability in 2019

    Sutton caught 72 of 124 targets for 1,112 yards and six touchdowns in 2019. He added 38 yards passing and 17 yards rushing on three carries.

    Sutton continued his climb to a true WR1 with an impressive sophomore campaign, improving across statistical categories. Concerning, however, was the fact that his numbers, much like the end of 2018, fell off in the absence of Emmanuel Sanders. In seven games with Sanders opposite him, Sutton averaged 5.1 catches on 7.7 targets per game for 80.6 yards and 0.4 touchdowns. In nine games without Sanders, Sutton averaged 4.0 catches on 7.8 targets per game for 60.9 yards and 0.3 touchdowns as pass defenses shifted heavily toward him. Sutton definitely has the ability to be a dominant receiver -- diving touchdowns over the likes of Denzel Ward and Casey Hayward come to mind -- but the drop-off warrants consideration. The fact that eight of those Sanders-less games were played with quarterbacks making their first career starts doubtlessly impacted Sutton's statistics, but the differences also show a real need for Denver to acquire a strong WR2 opposite Sutton in the offseason. Assuming Denver acquires that receiver, along with the continued development of the likes of Noah Fant and DaeSean Hamilton, Sutton could be a darkhorse potential top-10 receiver in 2020.

  • Jason Moore WR | DET

    Chargers' Jason Moore: Finishes season with two catches

    Moore posted two catches for 43 yards across 10 games played in 2019.

    Moore actually registered at least five offensive snaps in nine of the aforementioned 10 games, though he caught a pass in just one of them. Travis Benjamin (quad) is expected to be a cap-savings casualty this offseason, opening up the possibility for Moore to fight with a litany of other lesser-known options for the No. 3 receiver role.

  • Dante Pettis WR | SF

    49ers' Dante Pettis: Falls completely out of favor

    Pettis finished with 11 receptions for 109 yards and two touchdowns in 11 games during the regular season.

    Pettis was the biggest disappointment for a 49ers squad that surged to the top of the NFC in 2019. The 23-year-old appeared to be turning into a fantasy factor over the final four weeks of the 2018 season, but he failed to build off of the momentum and seize a potential starting opportunity. Coach Kyle Shanahan questioned the sophomore's effort during training camp, and his statements rang true when the former second-round pick quickly lost his starting job and even return duties to less-proven wideouts. Pettis has flashed his potential at times, and while he remains under contract in San Francisco for the next two years, a change of scenery could benefit both sides after a disastrous season.

  • Josh Reynolds WR | NYJ

    Rams' Josh Reynolds: Shut out in season finale

    Reynolds failed to catch his only target during Sunday's 31-24 win over Arizona.

    The third-year receiver had another underwhelming season with just 21 receptions for 326 yards and a single touchdown. Reynolds spent the majority of the year as the No. 4 wideout for the Rams, and while he averaged 42 offensive snaps per contest over the final nine games of the campaign, his only meaningful fantasy showing came in Week 8 when he caught three of eight targets for 73 yards and his lone score. With Los Angeles returning all four of its top receivers in 2020, Reynolds is unlikely to show significant statistical improvement without a roster shakeup or an injury to one of the pass catchers ahead of him on the depth chart.

  • Malik Turner WR | SF

    Seahawks' Malik Turner: Won't face Eagles

    Turner (concussion) is ruled out for Sunday's playoff matchup against the Eagles, Liz Matthews of USA Today reports.

    Turner will sit out Sunday's wild-card contest in Philadelphia while working his way through the league's five-step concussion protocol. As long as Turner remains sidelined, count on David Moore to serve as the No. 3 wide receiver for Seattle.

  • Nelson Agholor WR | BAL

    Eagles' Nelson Agholor: Won't play Sunday

    Agholor (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's playoff game against the Seahawks after not practicing this week.

    Agholor will thus miss his fifth straight game, which sets the stage for the likes of Greg Ward, Deontay Burnett, J.J. Arcega-Whiteside and Robert Davis to handle the team's wide receiver duties this weekend.

  • Byron Pringle WR | WAS

    Chiefs' Byron Pringle: Posts 12 catches in 2019

    Pringle reeled in 12 of his 16 targets for 170 yards and a touchdown during the 2019 season.

    More than half of Pringle's production came in Week 5 versus the Colts, when he logged a season-high 49 offensive snaps and hauled in six passes for 104 yards and his first and only NFL touchdown to date. He remains under contract through the 2020 season, but Pringle has no money guaranteed, potentially forcing him to lay claim to his roster spot in camp again. He should have a leg up this time around with a full year on the roster under his belt.

  • Kalif Raymond WR | CHI

    Titans' Kalif Raymond: Unlikely to play Saturday

    Raymond (concussion) has been downgraded to doubtful for Saturday's playoff game against the Patriots, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

    The 25-year-old was originally considered questionable after progressing to limited practice participation Wednesday, but it appears he won't be available this weekend. According to Turron Davenport of ESPN.com, Darius Jennings is expected to work as the kick returner while Rashard Davis returns punts in Raymond's absence.

  • Chiefs' Demarcus Robinson: Posts career-best campaign in 2019

    Robinson racked up a career-high 32 catches for 449 yards and four touchdowns during the 2019 regular season.

    Robinson's numbers were ballooned by a four-week stretch early in the season when Tyreek Hill was unavailable. After scoring three combined touchdowns in Weeks 2 and 3, Robinson didn't find pay dirt again until the regular-season finale against the Chargers. While he's technically still third on the Chiefs' depth chart, Robinson is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason and the skills displayed by rookie Mecole Hardman could lead to Kansas City letting Robinson walk.
