Johnson caught three of six targets for 29 yards during Sunday's 16-10 win over the Bengals.

After recovering from a concussion, Johnson finished second on the team in targets in his return, though he only managed to haul in half the passes sent his way. He recorded a long gain of 14 yards but never really got in a rhythm after Devlin Hodges took over under center. Johnson seems to be at full speed after his injury, but his upside is capped in next Sunday's matchup with the Browns due to lackluster quarterback play.

Arcega-Whiteside hauled in two of his five targets for 43 yards in the team's Week 12 loss to the Seahawks.

Only five of the team's 45 targets were directed toward Arcega-Whiteside, though he finished second on the team with 43 yards. His first reception came on a short pass which he turned upfield for 13 yards. However, the highlight came with only 23 seconds left in the game, when he nabbed a 30-yard pass down the sideline as he was falling out of bounds. Despite the highlight-reel play, Arcega-Whiteside may find targets even harder to come by in Week 13 against the Dolphins, as one or both of Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee) could return.

Samuel caught just one of four targets for nine yards but added 40 yards on four carries in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Saints.

Samuel took a back seat to Christian McCaffrey and D.J. Moore, who scored two touchdowns apiece. His involvement on some running plays was nice, but Samuel has now seen his receiving yardage total trend south for three consecutive games. Luckily, he'll have a nice opportunity to reverse that trend in Week 13 with the vulnerable Redskins secondary coming to town.

Moore caught six of nine targets for 126 yards and two touchdowns while adding an eight-yard rush in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Saints.

Moore turned the tide with a 51-yard touchdown in the first quarter after New Orleans jumped out to a 14-0 lead. He later helped Carolina finally pull even with a two-yard score in the fourth. Unfortunately for the second-year wideout, that effort wasn't enough, as Wil Lutz kicked a 33-yard field goal as time expired to win it for New Orleans. Still, the multi-score performance was much needed for Moore, who had only scored one touchdown all season coming in. He's become the go-to receiving option for quarterback Kyle Allen, finishing with at least 95 receiving yards in each of the past four games. Moore will have a nice opportunity to continue that streak in Week 13 against the lowly Redskins.

Robinson caught six of 10 passes for 131 yards and a touchdown in Chicago's 19-14 victory over the Giants on Sunday.

Along with the entire Bears offense, Robinson was very quiet during the first half but took over the game in the final 30 minutes as the New York secondary didn't have an answer for him in coverage. In addition to his huge numbers, he had a reception of over 60 yards called back by penalty. Although he's had a pair of disappointing performances over the last four weeks, he's been held to fewer than 60 yards just twice since Week 2, and he'll continue to be a WR2 based on both his talent and target volume.

Boyd caught five of nine targets for 101 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Steelers.

Boyd led the team in targets, catches, and receiving yards, topping the 100-yard mark for the third time this season. He tied his season long with a 47-yard reception and scored a 15-yard touchdown to get his team on the board in the second quarter. The touchdown was Boyd's first since Week 5, and this was an excellent way to bounce back after he failed to generate any yardage last week against the Raiders. He will have another chance to thrive next Sunday against the Jets.

Turner caught a 33-yard touchdown pass in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Eagles.

The Seahawks caught the Eagles off guard in the first quarter with a flea flicker, and Russell Wilson found Turner in the end zone for his only passing touchdown of the afternoon. This was Turner's first touchdown of his career, and he now has 10 catches for 186 yards on 13 targets this year. His fantasy ceiling is still capped as a rotational option behind Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf and Josh Gordon.

Thomas corralled 10 of 11 targets for 101 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 34-31 win against Carolina.

Coming into Week 12, Thomas had accounted for more receptions than the Eagles' (93) and Ravens' (74) entire wide receiver corps, and by the conclusion of the first quarter against the Panthers, he had already hauled in six passes to reach the century mark for the season. With 104 grabs through 11 games thus far in 2019, Thomas finds himself on pace to break Marvin Harrison's single-season receptions record (143) by eight. It's a delectable matchup forthcoming for Thomas on Thanksgiving night, facing a Falcons defense that surrendered a combined 11 catches for 234 yards and two touchdowns to Buccaneers top targets Chris Godwin and Mike Evans on Sunday.

Parker brought in six of 11 targets for 91 yards in the Dolphins' 41-24 loss to the Browns on Sunday.

Parker shared the team lead in receptions with Albert Wilson while pacing the Dolphins in receiving yardage. The 2015 first-round pick is quietly putting together a solid season, as he's become a favorite downfield target of Ryan Fitzpatrick's and now has 695 receiving yards through 11 games, the second-highest tally of his career. Parker has at least five receptions in five of the last six games, giving him a solid fantasy floor in all formats heading into a Week 13 battle versus the Eagles.

Metcalf caught three of six targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Eagles.

The Seahawks struggled to get things going through the air -- Russell Wilson completed 13 passes for 200 yards -- so Metcalf ended up below 50 yards for the fourth time this year. The rookie wideout's stat line would've been more appealing had he hung onto a 38-yard pass in the end zone. Metcalf and the Seahawks will look to notch their 10th win in Week 13 against the Vikings.
