  • Cardinals' KeeSean Johnson: Another healthy scratch

    Johnson (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday against the Browns, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Johnson has yet to suit up since the team's Week 12 bye, marking his third consecutive absence and fourth overall this season. If he continues to be a healthy scratch the rest of the way, he'll finish his rookie campaign with a 21-187-1 line on 42 targets.

  • Scott Miller WR | CHI

    Buccaneers' Scott Miller: Won't return Sunday

    Miller (hamstring) is ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest in Detroit.

    Miller exited the Week 15 contest in the first half after seemingly aggravating a hamstring injury he's battled since early August. The rookie caught all three of his targets for 49 yards and one touchdown before leaving the field. In Miller's stead, Justin Watson and Ishmael Hyman could see increased work behind Chris Godwin and Breshad Perriman.

  • Cardinals' Andy Isabella: Available Week 15

    Isabella (shoulder) is active for Sunday's game versus the Browns, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.

    Isabella boasts nice peripheral numbers (23.1 YPC and 15.4 YPT) on 12 targets to date in his career. Having said that, outside receivers in the Cardinals offense under coach Kliff Kingsbury have taken a back seat to Christian Kirk and Larry Fitzgerald. As a result, Isabella is a speculative dart, at best, against Cleveland's eighth-ranked pass defense (217.8 yards per game).

  • Marcell Ateman WR | BUF

    Raiders' Marcell Ateman: Active in Week 15

    Ateman (ribs) is active for Sunday's Week 15 tilt against the Jaguars.

    Ateman will overcome his questionable designation to suit up Sunday but he still has an uphill battle to fantasy relevance. Even with fellow wideout Hunter Renfrow (ribs) out of action, Ateman remains no better than No. 5 in the receiver pecking order.

  • Scott Miller WR | CHI

    Buccaneers' Scott Miller: Injures hamstring Sunday

    Miller sustained a hamstring injury during Sunday's game at Detroit, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Miller has tended to a hamstring issue since early August, missing time in the preseason and the Buccaneers' two games prior to this one. The team cleared him for action after he put in a full practice Thursday, only for Miller to seemingly aggravate the injury Sunday. Before his exit, he hauled in all three targets for 49 yards and one touchdown. With Mike Evans (foot) sidelined, the receiving corps is down to Chris Godwin, Breshad Perriman, Justin Watson and Ishmael Hyman.

  • Keke Coutee WR | MIA

    Texans' Keke Coutee: Back to inactive list

    Coutee (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.

    While Will Fuller (hamstring) was sidelined in the Week 14 loss to Denver, Coutee handled a regular role in three-receiver sets, playing 71 percent of the offensive snaps and finishing with five catches for 68 yards on eight targets. Unfortunately, the second-year wideout's otherwise strong stat line was blemished by a lost fumble that Denver returned for a touchdown. With Fuller back in action Sunday, the Texans will keep return man DeAndre Carter active as their fourth receiver over Coutee, who doesn't contribute on special teams.

  • Javon Wims WR | CAR

    Bears' Javon Wims: Good to go Sunday

    Wims (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Packers.

    Wims only practiced Friday in a limited fashion, but he's ready to go. The second-year wideout will rotate with Cordarrelle Patterson for the No. 3 wideout role behind Allen Robinson and Anthony Miller. Through the last four games, Wims has hauled in six of 13 targets for 57 scoreless yards.

  • DeVante Parker WR | PHI

    Dolphins' DeVante Parker: Set to play Week 15

    Parker is no longer in the NFL's concussion protocol and has been removed from the Dolphins' injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Giants, Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports.

    After he suffered a concussion in the Week 14 loss to the Jets, Parker's status looked uncertain heading into the current week, but he progressed quickly through the NFL's five-step protocol. After closing the practice week by taking full contact Friday, Parker apparently received clearance from an independent neurologist Saturday, allowing him to exit the protocol. Before being forced out early in Week 14, Parker had recorded at least 50 receiving yards in seven straight games, a string of performances that netted the wideout a four-year contract extension Friday.

  • Eagles' J.J. Arcega-Whiteside: Set to act as No. 1 WR

    Arcega-Whiteside is expected to operate as the No. 1 wide receiver Sunday against the Redskins after the Eagles downgraded Nelson Agholor (knee) to out Saturday.

    Season-ending injuries to Desean Jackson (abdomen) and Alshon Jeffery (foot) in addition to Agholor's aforementioned issue have opened the door for the rookie second-round pick to take on a critical role against a Redskins defense that sees each of its top three cornerbacks currently listed as questionable for Sunday. Arcega-Whiteside was less than impressive operating as the No. 1 wideout in the rain-soaked Monday night contest against the Giants in Week 14, but with just former practice-squad standouts Greg Ward and Robert Davis listed behind him on the depth chart, the 6-foot-2 big-bodied wideout might see enough volume by default to be a productive fantasy option.

  • Nelson Agholor WR | BAL

    Eagles' Nelson Agholor: Downgraded to out

    Agholor (knee) was downgraded to out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Redskins.

    Unable to practice all week, it always seemed unlikely Agholor would be able to suit up Sunday, and the Eagles thankfully ended the suspense early. With Alshon Jeffery (foot) also out, the trio of J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, Greg Ward and Robert Davis will be the only three active wide receivers on the roster, although both tight ends Zach Ertz and Dallas Goedert are expected to factor heavily in the team's passing attack.
