Dulcich secured all three of his targets for 46 yards during Miami's 45-21 loss to the Bengals on Sunday. He also lost one fumble.

Dulcich finished second in receiving on the team behind Jaylen Waddle (5-72-0 on nine targets), narrowly outpacing top TE Darren Waller (3-40-0 on five targets). Dulcich accounted for rookie quarterback Quinn Ewers' longest completion of the day, a 29-yard catch-and-run in the fourth quarter. He's now surpassed 40 receiving yards in three consecutive games, and he'll have two more opportunities to impress as the Dolphins close out the year against the Buccaneers in Week 17 and the Patriots in Week 18.

Badie caught one of three targets for two yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

Badie failed to record a single carry for the second straight week and the 11th time this season. Moreover, the 25-year-old running back has seen his role as a pass catcher diminish in recent weeks, while rookie RJ Harvey has taken a step forward in that capacity. The Missouri product played just 15 of the Broncos' 66 offensive snaps Sunday, behind Harvey (39) and ahead of Jaleel McLaughlin (10). Barring an injury to Harvey or McLaughlin, Badie holds little fantasy value going forward. Next up for Denver is a Week 17 road matchup against the Chiefs.

Humphrey caught one of two targets for nine yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

Humphrey played just 13 of the Broncos' 66 offensive snaps, the fewest of any Broncos wide receiver Sunday. The veteran wideout has recorded seven catches for 78 yards and a touchdown since re-joining the Broncos in Week 11 against the Chiefs. Humphrey is a talented player, but his inconsistent usage make him very difficult to trust for consistent fantasy production. The 27-year-old should be ignored for fantasy purposes heading into a Week 17 rematch against the Chiefs.

Gordon carried the ball once for one yard during Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Bengals.

Gordon operated as the clear No. 3 man out of the backfield for Miami, while De'Von Achane rushed 15 times for 81 yards and a touchdown and Jaylen Wright logged nine carries for 35 yards and a score. The rookie sixth-round pick has definitively been overtaken by Wright as the top backup to Achane, so he can be expected to remain in the third-string role as the Dolphins close out the 2025 campaign versus Tampa Bay in Week 17 and against the Patriots in Week 18.

Trautman caught two of three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

Trautman played 58 percent of snaps Sunday, continuing to handle the highest offensive snap share among Broncos' tight ends. The veteran was unable to turn his opportunities into much significant production, as he continues to take a back seat to teammate Evan Engram as a pass catcher. Trautman's blocking acumen keep him on the field, but he remains far off the fantasy radar going forward. Next up for the Broncos is a Week 17 matchup against the Chiefs.

Judkins is expected to be sidelined 4-to-5 months once he undergoes surgery to address the dislocated right ankle and fractured right fibula he suffered during Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Bills, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.

The rookie second-round pick's projected recovery timeline could allow him to return to the practice field in some capacity during OTAs, potentially setting him up to gain full clearance in advance of training camp. With Judkins' 2025 campaign now over, Dylan Sampson (hand), Trayveon Williams and Raheim Sanders will fill out the Browns backfield over the final two weeks of the campaign. Across 14 appearances this season, Judkins gained 827 yards and seven scores on 230 carries. He also secured 26 of 36 targets for 171 receiving yards.

Mims caught all three of his targets for 26 yards and rushed once for three yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

Mims continued to play a depth role in the Broncos' wide-receiver corps, playing 32 percent of Denver's offensive snaps in the contest. The Broncos' coaching staff makes it a point to get the ball in the third-year wideout's hands most games, but his opportunities are often in the short passing game and limit his ability to have impact performances each week. Mims has recorded multiple receptions in all but four games this season while also handling at least one carry in all but three contests. Despite his consistent involvement, the 23-year-old has recorded just 32 catches for 302 yards and a touchdown, adding 12 carries for 78 yards and a score. Heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Chiefs, the Oklahoma product cannot be trusted for meaningful fantasy production.

Cook carried the ball 16 times for 117 yards and two touchdowns during Buffalo's 23-20 win over Cleveland on Sunday. He also secured one of two targets for 17 yards.

Cook has now surpassed 100 rushing yards in back-to-back games, as well as four of his last five appearances. He did much of his damage versus the Browns in the first half, scoring on a highlight-reel 44-yard run early in the first quarter, before finding pay dirt from three yards out late in the second quarter. Cook remains entrenched as the focal point of Buffalo's offense and is locked in as a high-end RB1 for fantasy purposes heading into a home matchup against the Eagles in Week 17. The Bills then will close out the regular season with a favorable home game against the Jets in Week 18.

Jackson is considered day-to-day with a back bruise, though he said he hopes to play Saturday on the road against Green Bay, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Jackson said "the goal" is to play Week 17 after having been forced out of Sunday night's 28-24 loss to the Patriots late in the second quarter, but his status for Saturday remains uncertain, per Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com. The franchise quarterback is slated for an MRI on Monday, though head coach John Harbaugh has provided an initial diagnosis of Jackson's back injury as "a bruise of some kind." Tyler Huntley will start versus the Packers in the event that Jackson is unable to play. The Ravens will close out the regular season on the road against the Steelers in Week 18 in what could be a must-win game for their playoff chances.

McLaughlin rushed five times for 37 yards in Sunday's 34-20 loss to the Jaguars.

McLaughlin was not a major factor Sunday, as the Broncos only attempted 17 total rushes against the Jaguars, with starter RJ Harvey handling seven of those carries. The 25-year-old McLaughlin played just 10 of the Broncos 66 offensive snaps, behind both Harvey (39) and Tyler Badie (15). His limited work came after head coach Sean Payton told reporters that he planned to get the third-year running back more touches moving forward. Though his five carries against Jacksonville were a slight improvement over his two carries in Week 15, his minimal involvement makes McLaughlin extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. The Youngstown State product remains a solid insurance policy in the event that Harvey were to miss time due to injury, but he can safely be left out of fantasy lineups heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Chiefs.
