  • Dolphins' Nick Westbrook-Ikhine: Held without a target Week 11

    Westbrook-Ikhine was not targeted during Miami's 16-13 overtime win over the Commanders in Madrid on Sunday.

    Westbrook-Ikhine played just 27 percent of offensive snaps versus Washington, his lowest total since Week 3. While Westbrook-Ikhine hasn't offered any notable fantasy value all season as he hasn't yet scored or surpassed 25 receiving yards in a game, this decline in usage effectively puts him off the radar even in the deepest of formats. After the Dolphins emerge from a Week 12 bye to face the Saints in Week 13, expect Malik Washington to remain solidified as the team's clear No. 2 wideout behind Jaylen Waddle.

  • Jaylin Noel WR | HOU

    Texans' Jaylin Noel: Up-and-down season continues

    Noel hauled in his lone target for 12 yards while adding 89 total return yards on five punts and two kickoffs in Sunday's 16-13 win over the Titans in Week 11.

    Noel's production has been a roller coaster since Houston's Week 5 bye. In three of the last five contests, the rookie third-round pick has a combined 13 catches on 17 targets for 175 yards. In the two other games, Noel has one catch on one target for 12 yards. Noel's greatest contribution has been as a returner; he leads the team with a combined 457 returns yards (eight kickoffs, 23 punts).

  • Christian Kirk WR | HOU

    Texans' Christian Kirk: Another quiet outing

    Kirk secured one of four targets for six yards in Sunday's 16-13 win over Tennessee in Week 11.

    Since returning in Week 9 from a second hamstring injury this season, Kirk has caught just six of 15 targets for a quiet 35 yards. He was expected to be the No. 2 wideout behind Nico Collins, but rookie Jayden Higgins (seven targets, four catches, 55 yards) out-produced Kirk for a second straight week. Over six games in 2025, Kirk has 16 catches on 31 targets for 144 yards and zero touchdowns.

  • Malachi Corley WR | CLE

    Browns' Malachi Corley: Secures two catches in loss

    Corley caught both of his targets for nine yards and returned three kickoffs for 75 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Ravens in Week 11.

    Corley, who opened the year on the Browns' practice squad, has done a little bit of everything since being added to the active roster in Week 5. His major contributions have come on special teams, where the 2024 third-round pick has emerged as the team's top kick returner. In addition, the former Jet has caught four of five targets for 26 yards and carried the rock four times for 74 yards. Of note, Corley maintained his spot on the active roster ahead of Jamari Thrash, a 2024 fifth-round draft pick of the Browns, who was a healthy inactive Sunday to clear a spot for Isaiah Bond.

  • Isaiah Bond WR | CLE

    Browns' Isaiah Bond: Returns to action

    Bond had one carry for eight yards and did not catch his lone target in Sunday's 23-16 loss to Baltimore in Week 11.

    Bond returned to action after missing one game due to a foot injury, prompting the Browns to make Jamari Thrash inactive. Bond played 23 snaps, third most among the team's wideouts behind Jerry Jeudy and Cedric Tillman. Unfortunately Cleveland's offense, particularly its passing attack, is such a mess that there's little value in the team's third wideout.

  • Gage Larvadain WR | CLE

    Browns' Gage Larvadain: Targeted once in loss

    Larvadain was unable to secure his lone target and returned two punts for 18 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Ravens in Week 11.

    Larvadain was on the field for just four offensive snaps but was in position to make an impact on his lone target. With just over a minute left in the game, the ball was in Larvadain's hands in the end zone, but Ravens cornerback Chidobe Awuzie ripped it from his grasp. The target was Larvadain's first since Week 7, and the four snaps Sunday make it clear where he stands on the depth chart. His main value to Cleveland is on special teams, and he leads the team with nine punt returns.

  • Jerry Jeudy WR | CLE

    Browns' Jerry Jeudy: Struggles with seven targets

    Jeudy brought in three of seven targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 23-16 loss to the Ravens.

    Jeudy failed to build off the momentum from his season-best outing against the Jets in Week 11 (6-78-1), finishing third in receiving yards for the Browns despite leading the team with seven targets. It didn't help the veteran wideout that his starting quarterback was knocked out of the game at halftime, nor did he mesh well with replacement QB Shedeur Sanders, who completed 25 percent of his passes in relief. Cleveland's inconsistent play under center all season has limited Jeudy's production, making the wideout a risky fantasy play on a weekly basis.

  • DeVonta Smith WR | PHI

    Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Forgettable performance on SNF

    Smith was held to eight yards on one reception (five targets) in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.

    Jalen Hurts made a concerted effort to feed disgruntled WR A.J. Brown (11 targets) the football in the win, leaving scraps for the remaining Philadelphia receivers in Sunday's low-scoring affair. Smith finished in a tie with Dallas Goedert for second in team targets, but the former's season-worst 20 percent catch rate was the main reason behind his struggles. Even with Sunday's dud, Smith still boasts an impressive 49-665-3 stat line in 10 starts this year.

  • Lions' Jameson Williams: Keeps momentum going

    Williams recorded four receptions on seven targets for 88 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-9 loss to the Eagles. He added one rush for nine yards.

    Williams accounted for Detroit's only touchdown of the game with a 40-yard score, with most of the yardage coming after the catch. It was a poor offensive night from the Lions, but Williams also chipped in long gains of 27 and 19 yards to provide at least some positivity. This was his third-highest yardage total of the season, and he now has 10 catches for 207 yards and two touchdowns combined across the two games since head coach Dan Campbell took over offensive play-calling.

  • A.J. Brown WR | PHI

    Eagles' A.J. Brown: Garners 11 targets on SNF

    Brown finished with seven receptions on 11 targets for 49 yards in Sunday's 16-9 win over Detroit.

    Brown certainly was not devoid of targets in the primetime victory, pacing his team with six more looks than the next-highest receiver. Blustering winds in Philadelphia prevented many deep shots from being taken on Sunday Night Football, which put a cap on the star wideout's fantasy score outside of PPR formats. Brown has been vocal about his lack of involvement at times this year, so the season-high 11 targets should help ease the thoughts of concerned managers heading into next Sunday's tilt against the Cowboys.
