  • Davante Adams WR | LAR

    Packers' Davante Adams: Seven catches plus score

    Adams had seven receptions (12 targets) for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-8 loss to the 49ers.

    Adams -- like many Green Bay offensive options -- was bottled up by San Francisco's stout defense for the majority of the contest. The 26-year-old was able to salvage a pedestrian day with a short touchdown reception late in the third quarter. It was surprisingly Adams' first touchdown reception of 2019 after he posted double-digit totals in three consecutive seasons. Missed time has certainly cut into the star wideout's scoring production, but a stronger commitment to the run under Matt LaFleur has also come into play. Adams will look to put up stronger numbers in a soft matchup against the Giants' secondary in Week 13.

  • Randall Cobb WR | NYJ

    Cowboys' Randall Cobb: Leading receiver against Pats

    Cobb caught four of seven targets for 86 yards in Sunday's 13-9 loss to the Patriots.

    The yards and targets led the Cowboys, but Cobb's efforts weren't enough to get the team into the end zone as the offense failed to score a TD for the first time all season. The veteran receiver is enjoying his best stretch of the year, hauling in 14 of 22 targets for 307 yards and two touchdowns over the last three games, but Cobb could have a tough time keeping his momentum going in next week's home tilt against the Bills.

  • Michael Gallup WR | WAS

    Cowboys' Michael Gallup: Modest numbers in loss

    Gallup caught four of six targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 13-9 loss to the Patriots.

    The Cowboys' offense failed to score a TD for the first time all season due to a combination of rain and a tough opponent, but Gallup still caught at least four passes for the third straight game. The second-year receiver should remain one of Dak Prescott's top options in next week's home game against the Bills.

  • Amari Cooper WR | LV

    Cowboys' Amari Cooper: Held catchless by Pats

    Cooper failed to catch either of his two targets in Sunday's 13-9 loss to the Patriots.

    Between a constant rainfall and tight coverage by Stephon Gilmore, Cooper wasn't able to make any kind of impact and ended up with zero catches for the first time in 22 games as a Cowboy, including the postseason. Assuming his poor performance wasn't also partially the result of the lingering knee injury he's been dealing with, Cooper should be able to rebound at least somewhat in next week's home tilt against the Bills.

  • Steven Sims WR | ARI

    Redskins' Steven Sims: Finds end zone on special teams

    Sims had a 91-yard kickoff return touchdown in Sunday's 19-16 win over the Lions.

    Sims also drew two targets but finished without a catch. He's hauled in 11 of 16 targets for just 51 yards on the season, but he at least has shown some big-play ability in other facets, with the kick-return touchdown Sunday and a 66-yard rushing score earlier in the year. Paul Richardson's hamstring injury could open up a few extra snaps for Sims in Week 13 at Carolina.

  • Scott Miller WR | CHI

    Buccaneers' Scott Miller: Pair of touches from scrimmage

    Miller lost two yards on his only carry and secured his only target for eight yards in the Buccaneers' 35-22 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

    Miller was riding some modest momentum coming into Sunday's contest, having posted a combined 6-104 line over the prior two games. However, the rookie was unable to continue his ascent versus the Falcons, although he encouragingly continued to enjoy a secondary role on the offense. Miller will look to coax his production back up against the Jaguars in a Week 13 interconference battle.

  • Tre'Quan Smith WR | DET

    Saints' Tre'Quan Smith: Crosses goal line in win

    Smith brought in one of three targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' 34-31 win over the Panthers on Sunday.

    Smith crossed the goal line for the first time since Week 1, though his touchdown grab was his only look from Drew Brees. Smith started the year on solid footing, but in four games played since Week 2, he's accounted for just 26 receiving yards and a touchdown on two receptions. He's seen a meager 11 targets through six games this season and doesn't belong on fantasy rosters outside the deepest of leagues.

  • Vyncint Smith WR | IND

    Jets' Vyncint Smith: One catch in blowout win

    Smith caught his lone target for 22 yards in Sunday's 34-3 win over Oakland. He also returned one kick for 19 yards.

    Smith continues to get the occasional look on offense, but his involvement isn't consistent enough to warrant fantasy consideration at this point. His 22 receiving yards represent a new single-game career high in that category.

  • Buccaneers' Breshad Perriman: Big catch in Week 12 win

    Perriman secured his only target for 44 yards in the Buccaneers' 35-22 win over the Falcons on Sunday.

    Perriman's one touch made an impact, as he had the second-longest catch of the day for the Buccaneers. He's one of the lower-volume No. 3 receivers in the league, having notched more than two receptions in only one game this season and already having been blanked altogether on three occasions. Therefore, even though the young veteran boasts plenty of speed, he remains a speculative play each week.

  • Russell Gage WR | SF

    Falcons' Russell Gage: Big day against Bucs secondary

    Gage caught eight of 10 targets for 76 yards during Sunday's 35-22 loss to Tampa Bay.

    The second-year wideout has been establishing himself as a deep-league consideration of late, accumulating 5.3 catches and 47.3 yards per game since Week 8 after managing fewer than one reception and 6.3 yards per game over his first seven appearances of the year. Gage's 76-yard day established a new career best for the former LSU Tiger, but it'd be surprising if he were able to produce a comparable or better output in his upcoming matchup, facing New Orleans' top-12 pass defense on a short week.
