  • Quintin Morris TE | JAC

    Jaguars' Quintin Morris: One catch in win

    Morris caught his lone target for five yards during Sunday's 34-20 win against the Broncos.

    The 26-year-old continues to operate as Jacksonville's No. 3 tight end, playing 19 offensive snaps compared to Brenton Strange's 52 and Johnny Mundt's 25 in Sunday's win. Morris has caught five passes for 50 yards through 12 games this season, with all of those receptions coming in the past six contests.

  • Packers' Dontayvion Wicks: Just two catches in Week 16

    Wicks caught both of his targets for 12 yards during Saturday's 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears.

    Since Wicks' stellar Week 13 performance against the Lions (6-94-2), he's caught three of four targets for just 18 yards over the Packers' last three games. The Virginia product has flashed throughout the season, appearing in 13 contests and recording 325 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 29 receptions. He's expected to remain a depth option in Green Bay's receiving corps in the Week 17 matchup against the Ravens.

  • Packers' Luke Musgrave: Remains involved Saturday

    Musgrave caught all three of his targets for 38 yards during Saturday's 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears.

    The third-year pro from Oregon State tallied the second-most receiving yards on the Packers during Saturday's loss, trailing Romeo Doubs (5-84-1). Musgrave's role in Green Bay's offense may be growing, as he's caught seven of nine targets for 90 yards over the last two games. However, he likely won't have much fantasy value in the Week 17 matchup against the Ravens, especially with injuries to both Jordan Love (concussion) and Malik Willis (shoulder).

  • Packers' Chris Brooks: One carry vs. Chicago

    Brooks rushed once for four yards during Saturday's 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears.

    The 25-year-old played 15 offensive snaps and primarily served as Green Bay's top pass-blocking running back during Saturday's loss. In 15 games this season, Brooks has rushed 14 times for 45 yards and caught 12 of 15 targets for 80 yards. The BYU product could serve as the Packers' No. 2 RB in the Week 17 matchup against the Ravens if Josh Jacobs (knee) is sidelined.

  • Raiders' Daniel Carlson: Makes three PATs vs. Houston

    Carlson converted all three of his extra-point tries during Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Texans.

    The Auburn product has now gone without a field-goal attempt in three of Las Vegas' last four games. On the season, Carlson has made 17 of 22 field-goal tries and 20 of 21 point-after attempts through 15 contests. His next opportunity to score will likely come in the Week 17 matchup against the Giants.

  • LeQuint Allen RB | JAC

    Jaguars' LeQuint Allen: Four touches in No. 2 role

    Allen rushed four times for 10 yards and returned three kickoffs for 73 yards during Sunday's 34-20 win against the Broncos.

    The rookie seventh-round pick stepped into the No. 2 backfield role with Bhayshul Tuten (finger) sidelined, and Allen played 21 of 70 offensive snaps. Starter Travis Etienne dominated the backfield work with 20 touches, and that's a trend that's likely to continue during the final two weeks of the regular season, with Allen working as the primary backup as long as Tuten is out.

  • Joey Slye K | TEN

    Titans' Joey Slye: Makes four kicks vs. Kansas City

    Slye made all three of his extra-point tries and his lone field-goal attempt during Sunday's 26-9 win over the Chiefs.

    Most of the 29-year-old's work came in the second half of Sunday's win, making a 26-yard field goal and two extra points during that span. Slye has had an up-and-down year for the Titans, converting on 24 of 30 field-goal tries and 23 of 24 point-after attempts across 14 contests. His next opportunity to kick will likely come in the Week 17 matchup against the Saints.

  • Ben Sauls K | NYG

    Giants' Ben Sauls: Perfect in NFL debut

    Sauls converted both of his field-goal attempts and his lone extra-point try during Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Vikings.

    The 24-year-old impressed during his NFL debut, making field goals of 27 and 39 yards while also converting his only point-after attempt. Following Sunday's performance, Sauls will likely remain the Giants' top placekicker in the Week 17 matchup against the Raiders.

  • Nick Folk K | ATL

    Jets' Nick Folk: Perfect in Week 16

    Folk made both of his field-goal attempts during Sunday's 29-6 loss to the Saints.

    Folk converted on 29- and 36-yard field-goal tries in the first half but wasn't given any other opportunities to score during Sunday's loss. The 41-year-old has been one of the NFL's best kickers this season, making 27 of 28 field-goal attempts and all 21 of his point-after tries through 15 games. His next opportunity to kick will come in the Week 17 matchup against the Patriots.

  • Dyami Brown WR | WAS

    Jaguars' Dyami Brown: Minimal role at Denver

    Brown wasn't targeted during Sunday's 34-20 win against the Broncos.

    Brown was active for a third straight game Sunday after being a healthy scratch Week 13, but he's now gone six straight contests without a reception. It would likely take multiple injuries to Jacksonville's receiving corps for the 26-year-old to reclaim a meaningful role in the passing game.
