  • Jets' Braxton Berrios: Just short of first NFL TD

    Berrios caught his lone target for 69 yards in Sunday's 34-3 win over Oakland. He also returned one punt for 26 yards.

    Berrios found a soft spot in the defense and looked like he was going to zoom away for a touchdown, only to be tackled at the 1-yard line. The Jets got into the end zone one play later, but the 24-year-old receiver was left just short of his first NFL touchdown. While Berrios' contributions come primarily on special teams, it's good to know he's capable of making the occasional play on offense when called upon.

  • Jets' Ty Montgomery: Six touches in blowout win

    Montgomery rushed five times for two yards and caught one of two targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 34-3 win over the Raiders.

    Montgomery racked up some garbage-time touches, but he remains a non-factor as long as starting running back Le'Veon Bell is healthy.

  • Adam Humphries WR | HOU

    Titans' Adam Humphries: Three short receptions

    Humphries hauled in all three of his targets for 20 yards in the team's Week 12 win over the Jaguars.

    Humphries finished second on the team with three receptions, but failed to make an impact. His longest catch went for just eight yards, with his other two receptions going for just six yards each. Though Humphries has converted 80 percent of his 45 targets into catches this season, that has turned into only 361 receiving yards. That said, he's dependent on finding the end zone to return any type of viable fantasy contribution. He'll look to do so in Week 13 against Miami.

  • Corey Davis WR | NYJ

    Titans' Corey Davis: Only two catches

    Davis hauled in two of his three targets for 29 yards in the team's Week 12 win over the Jaguars.

    Davis continues to fade into the background of the Titans' passing attack, as A.J. Brown exploded for a big performance in the win. Davis' three targets matched his fewest of the season, though he's now failed to surpass 30 receiving yards in four of his 10 games. While he's shown brief flashes of promise, Davis doesn't see enough volume to turn in consistent performances. On the other hand, he will draw a plus matchup against the Dolphins in Week 13, so he could be in for a boom performance.

  • A.J. Brown WR | NE

    Titans' A.J. Brown: Another breakout performance

    Brown hauled in four of his five targets for 135 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 12 win over the Jaguars.

    Brown led the team in targets, receptions and yards, his third explosive performance of the season. His standout catch came halfway through the third quarter, when he caught a Ryan Tannehill pass over the middle before turning upfield for a 65-yard touchdown. He also posted several other long receptions, including gains of 36, 19 and 15 yards. While Tannehill has moved the offense more effectively than Marcus Mariota, the Titans still focus on moving the ball predominantly on the ground rather than through the air. As a result, Brown is likely to remain only a volatile producer for the remainder of the season. That said, he'll draw a positive matchup against the Dolphins in Week 13.

  • Tim Patrick WR | NYJ

    Broncos' Tim Patrick: Held to three yards

    Patrick caught one of three targets for three yards during Sunday's 20-3 loss in Buffalo.

    Patrick helped covert the Broncos' first third-down of the game during the team's opening drive, hauling in a third-and-short pass right at the sticks. The Broncos converted just one more third down for the remainder of the game. Patrick, just two games into his comeback from a broken hand, has been a key target on third and fourth down, but he -- and Denver's offense as a whole -- appears to have met his ceiling with Brandon Allen at quarterback. His value heading into Sunday's game against the Chargers likely depends on whether the Drew Lock era has begun.

  • Broncos' Courtland Sutton: Held to one catch

    Sutton caught one of eight targets for a 27-yard gain during Sunday's 20-3 loss in Buffalo.

    Sutton snagged a 27-yard pass over the deep middle on a play action pass during Denver's opening drive. He and Brandon Allen failed to connect on his next seven targets as Tre'Davious White shadowed him and Allen struggled to throw through the Buffalo wind. Sutton has the size and deep-play ability to win some 50-50 balls against top corners and even double-coverage, but Allen's ability to get the ball downfield down the stretch should concern Sutton fans. Sutton takes on a Chargers defense Sunday that has done well to limit the deep ball and Sutton's value may depend on whether Allen gets a fourth start or the Drew Lock era begins.

  • Calvin Ridley WR | TEN

    Falcons' Calvin Ridley: Another sterling outing in Week 12

    Ridley caught six of 14 targets for 85 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 35-22 loss to Tampa Bay.

    The second-year wideout has provided rampant fantasy production over his past two games after falling into a brief mid-season slump, amassing 14 receptions for 225 yards and two touchdowns in outings against the Panthers and Buccaneers over the past two Sundays. While Ridley is riding a hot streak at the moment, he's been known to fade into the background certain weeks depending on the opponent and circumstance. Prior to his recent two-game breakout, Ridley had averaged fewer than four receptions and 45 receiving yards per game, with zero touchdowns in outings against the Rams, Seahawks and Saints between Weeks 7 and 10. Upcoming on Thanksgiving night, Ridley will be facing New Orleans for the second time this season, just three weeks removed from a three-catch, 28-yard dud against the Saints on Nov. 10.

  • 49ers' Marquise Goodwin: Inactive for SNF

    Goodwin (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Packers.

    Goodwin will be a healthy scratch for the second time this year. He's been unproductive over eight games this season, recording 12 catches for 186 yards and a touchdown. Emmanuel Sanders (ribs), Deebo Samuel (shoulder) and George Kittle (ankle/knee) will all suit up Sunday.

  • Robbie Chosen WR | WAS

    Jets' Robby Anderson: Big-play ability returns

    Anderson caught four of five targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-3 win over the Raiders.

    Anderson got his mojo back, recording two catches of 30-plus yards and following up the second one with a one-yard touchdown to make it 27-3 in the third quarter. He has a two-game touchdown streak going after finding the end zone only once through the season's first nine games, and Anderson was able to top 80 yards for the third time in this one. Those who held onto him through his early struggles or scooped him up recently should consider deploying Anderson against the winless Bengals in Week 13.
