Allen caught nine of 10 targets for 99 yards during Sunday's 39-10 loss to the Vikings.

Allen was targeted heavily with his team trailing throughout, and he finished with his best receiving output since Week 3 as a result. His long gain went for just 19 yards, but his heavy usage helped him to a solid day from a fantasy perspective. Allen's big game puts him over 1,000 yards for the season, and he should remain heavily involved during next Sunday's game against the Raiders.

Cooper caught one of two targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 44-21 win over the Rams.

His day mirrored that of the Cowboys' entire wide-receiver group, as the team leaned heavily on a dominant running game to generate offense. Cooper, Michael Gallup and Randall Cobb combined to produce three catches for only 22 yards, and Tavon Austin surprisingly led the team's WRs thanks to one 59-yard TD catch. Cooper will look to rebound next Sunday with the NFC East title on the line in Philadelphia, facing an Eagles defense he posted a 5-106-0 line against in Week 7.

Woods caught four of nine targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 44-21 loss to the Cowboys.

Jared Goff had accuracy issues for most of the game, and Woods arguably suffered the most from his QB's scattershot efforts. On the bright side, the veteran receiver has seen at least nine targets in each of his last five games, but Sunday's output was a far cry from the eight grabs and 115 yards he averaged over the prior four contests. Woods will look to bounce back next Saturday in a road clash with the 49ers.

Kupp caught all six of his targets for 41 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 44-21 loss to the Cowboys.

The receiver salvaged his fantasy line with a fourth-quarter score after the game was far out of reach. Kupp has now hit pay dirt in three straight games, snagging all 16 of his targets for 151 yards over that stretch, and he'll try to continue his late-season surge next Saturday on the road against the 49ers.

Kirk caught four of five targets for 33 yards and rushed once for 28 yards in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Browns.

Kirk was pretty much held in check in the passing game, where he trailed Damiere Byrd and Larry Fitzgerald in yards, but he at least salvaged some production with a career-long rush. The second-year pro also caught at least four passes for the ninth time in 11 appearances this season. He was shaken up at one point during the game, but ended up finishing the contest. Kirk will aim for a better overall outing in Week 16 versus the Seahawks.

Byrd caught all six of his targets for 86 yards in Sunday's 38-24 win over the Browns.

Byrd led Arizona across the board in receiving, putting together the best performance of his four-year career. The speedster's showing was highlighted by a 51-yard catch during the second quarter, helping set up a touchdown prior to halftime. Nonetheless, there's little to suggest that Byrd can be trusted to approach such high production going forward.

Cole caught three of six targets for 76 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Raiders.

He led the Jaguars in receiving yards, but most of his production came on a 55-yard grab on the team's opening drive. and Cole did little afterwards. The six targets tied his season high, and the third-year wideout could see elevated volume again in Week 16 against the Falcons if DJ Chark Jr. (ankle) remains sidelined.

Conley caught four of eight targets for 49 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 20-16 win over the Raiders.

The Jaguars were down 16-6 in the fourth quarter when Gardner Minshew found Conley for a six-yard TD with 5:15 left on the clock, and then the duo connected again on a four-yard score inside the final minute. The fifth-year receiver doubled his touchdown total on the season with the performance, and if DJ Chark Jr.'s ankle injury keeps him sidelined another week, Conley could see more red-zone looks next Sunday in Atlanta.

Sutton caught four of 10 targets for 79 yards during Sunday's 23-3 loss in Kansas City.

Sutton was bottled up for the bulk of Sunday's outing before catching a quick screen pass and cutting upfield for a 33-yard gain with the Broncos at their own goal line. Sutton had a nice two-touchdown game in rookie Drew Lock's debut but has just nine catches for 113 yards in the two games since. Part of that can be attributed to defenses keying on him, though Sutton also had a drop or two Sunday. Look for him to get back on track down the stretch as Denver takes on the league's 31st and 28th-ranked pass defenses, respectively, in Detroit and Oakland to wind down the season.

Patrick caught three of seven passes for 26 yards during Sunday's 23-3 loss in Kansas City.

Patrick made his mark midway through the second quarter, shielding his defender away to nab a 12-yard pass on third-and-long to move the chains. Though he hasn't put up big numbers, Patrick has routinely been a go-to target on third down since his return from a hand injury, and Sunday was no different with five of his seven targets coming on third or fourth down. Still, he somehow has four fewer targets than the struggling DaeSean Hamilton in Drew Lock's three starts. Even if that trend continues, look for Patrick to enjoy an uptick in production Sunday against Detroit's 31st-ranked pass defense.
