  • LeQuint Allen RB | JAC

    Jaguars' LeQuint Allen: Five touches in blowout win

    Allen carried four times for 11 yards, caught his lone target for five yards and returned one kickoff for 50 yards during Sunday's 48-20 win against the Jets.

    The rookie seventh-round pick played 18 offensive snaps, with most of his touches coming with Jacksonville leading comfortably during the fourth quarter. Allen continues to see sporadic playing time as a passing down back but has received more than two offensive touches in just two games this season.

  • 49ers' Brian Robinson: Another down game in Week 15

    Robinson rushed nine times for 21 yards and returned two kicks for 53 yards in Sunday's 37-24 win over the Titans.

    Robinson struggled in his change-of-pace role Sunday after finishing the contest with a season-worst 2.3 YPC. The veteran backup has finished with a per-carry average below 4.0 yards in three out of his last four outings with no trips to the end zone over that span. Robinson's recent struggles and marginal role on offense make him an unsavory fantasy option against the Colts in Week 16.

  • Brandin Cooks WR | BUF

    Bills' Brandin Cooks: No catches vs. New England

    Cooks (undisclosed) failed to catch any of his three targets during Sunday's 35-31 win over the Patriots.

    Although Cooks played 22 offensive snaps and logged the second-most targets of any Bills receiver in Sunday's win, he was seen heading to the X-ray room with trainers following the game, per Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News. In three games with Buffalo, Cooks has caught just one of four targets for 13 yards. If he's able to suit up for the Week 16 matchup against the Browns, he'll likely remain a depth option in the team's receiving corps.

  • Tim Patrick WR | NYJ

    Jaguars' Tim Patrick: No targets Week 15

    Patrick wasn't targeted during Sunday's 48-20 win against the Jets.

    The 32-year-old played just two fewer offensive snaps than No. 3 wideout Parker Washington but wasn't involved in the passing game. Patrick took advantage of Washington's absence due to a hip injury last week and caught five passes for 78 yards and a touchdown, but Patick likely won't have many opportunities while Washington, Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers are healthy.

  • Bhayshul Tuten RB | JAC

    Jaguars' Bhayshul Tuten: Scores TD in blowout win

    Tuten carried once for seven yards and caught his lone target for a 16-yard touchdown during Sunday's 48-20 win against the Jets. He also returned three kickoffs for 93 yards.

    The rookie fourth-round pick played just 11 offensive snaps but scored his sixth touchdown of the season during the second quarter. Despite consecutive blowout victories, Tuten has just four offensive touches in those contests, as starting tailback Travis Etienne has returned to more of a workhorse role for Jacksonville.

  • Tyrell Shavers WR | BUF

    Bills' Tyrell Shavers: Blanked Sunday

    Shavers played 34 of the Bills' 67 offensive snaps but wasn't targeted during Sunday's 35-31 win over the Patriots.

    The San Diego State product has now gone without a target in three of the Bills last four games. However, he still played the third-most offensive snaps amongst Buffalo wideouts during Sunday's loss, trailing Khalil Shakir (45) and Keon Coleman (38). Expect Shavers to continue playing a depth role in the Bills' receiving corps in the Week 16 matchup against the Browns.

  • Jaguars' Brenton Strange: Quiet day in blowout win

    Strange caught one of three targets for 26 yards during Sunday's 48-20 win against the Jets.

    The 25-year-old didn't get on the board until a 26-yard reception in the third quarter, and he's now totaled just four catches for 53 yards across the past two games. Jacksonville's offense has been humming with seven straight games of at least 25 points, the last three of which have been blowout victories. Strange has clearly established himself as the Jaguars' No. 1 tight end but has limited upside for fantasy managers with the offense primarily running through Travis Etienne, Brian Thomas and Jakobi Meyers. In nine games this season, Strange has caught 32 passes for 395 yards and one touchdown.

  • Ray Davis RB | BUF

    Bills' Ray Davis: Excels as kick returner in Week 15

    Davis caught his lone target for 13 yards and returned four kickoffs for 164 yards during Sunday's 35-31 win over the Patriots.

    Although Davis played a minimal offensive role in Sunday's comeback win, he averaged 41 yards per kickoff return and consistently provided the Bills' offense with good field position. Since taking over as Buffalo's lead kickoff returner in the Week 9 win over the Chiefs, Davis has accumulated 745 return yards and a touchdown, averaging a league-leading 32.4 yards per return, a mark that would also set a Bills franchise record. The second-year pro from Kentucky is expected to remain one of the NFL's most dynamic return men in the Week 16 matchup against the Browns.

  • Bengals' Mitchell Tinsley: Logs 16 yards in loss

    Tinsley caught one of two targets for 16 yards in Sunday's 24-0 loss to the Ravens.

    The Penn State product operated as the Bengals' No. 3 wideout Sunday while Tee Higgins (concussion) was sidelined. However, Tinsley saw just two targets, with the vast majority of Cincinnati's receiving work going to Ja'Marr Chase and Chase Brown, who combined to catch 17 of 23 targets for 169 yards. Tinsley has now recorded eight receptions on 23 targets for 116 yards and two touchdowns through 14 appearances this season. He's likely to remain a depth option in the Bengals' receiver room in the Week 16 matchup against the Dolphins.

  • Vikings' Will Reichard: Perfect in Week 15

    Reichard went 2-for-2 on field-goal attempts and 4-for-4 on extra-point tries in Sunday's 34-26 win over the Cowboys.

    The second-year pro from Alabama has not missed a kick since the Week 8 loss to the Chargers. On the year, Reichard has made 24 of 26 field-goal tries and all 27 of his point-after attempts. He's expected to remain one of the NFL's top kickers in the Week 16 matchup against the Giants.
