Gay converted both of his field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in the 49ers' 26-8 win over the Browns on Sunday.

Elevated from the practice squad for the second straight week after he was cut by the Commanders following Week 11, Gay is now a perfect four-for-four on field goals and four-for-four on extra points across two games with San Francisco. It's unclear if Eddy Pineiro (hamstring) will be ready to return to kicking duties when the Niners come out of their Week 14 bye.

Gonzalez converted one of two field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries in the Falcons' 27-24 loss to the Jets on Sunday.

Gonzalez missed a 50-yard field-goal attempt wide right in the third quarter but hit one from 52 yards on the next drive. Through four games with the Falcons, Gonzalez has made seven of eight field goals and all nine of his PATs. In an offense now quarterbacked by Kirk Cousins with Drake London (knee) injured, Gonzalez isn't an exciting fantasy kicker.

Gainwell rushed the ball five times for 20 yards in Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Bills. He added two receptions on three targets for 25 yards.

The Steelers played from behind for the entire second half, which should have benefited Gainwell in his role as the primary pass catcher out of the backfield. However, Pittsburgh managed only 21 offensive plays in the final two quarters, limiting the volume for all of the Steelers' skill-position players. Gainwell will continue to have a key role in the offense, but he's a boom-or-bust fantasy option given the unit's inability to consistently move the ball.

Badgley made his only field-goal try and went 1-for-2 on PATs in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Texans.

Badgley was able to convert a 42-yard field goal in the fourth quarter, extending his streak to seven straight appearances with a field-goal make. The kicker did, however, miss his first extra-point try of the day, connecting with the left upright in the first quarter. The miss would come back to hurt Indianapolis late in the game, forcing the team to go for it on fourth-and-9 from Houston's 31 yard line with less than two minutes remaining in regulation, and ultimately the team turned the ball over on downs. Badgley has now gone 10-for-11 on field-goal attempts, including 2-for-3 from 50-plus yards, over seven contests with the Colts this year.

Hockenson corralled all six of his targets for 59 yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to the Seahawks.

Hockenson was the lone bright spot for Minnesota's passing offense after converting all of his targets into a team-high 59 yards. The 27-year-old tied his previous season best with six receptions, while the yardage did represent a new high-water mark in an otherwise disappointing campaign. With a 44-358-2 receiving line through 12 starts, Hockenson is providing the bare minimum at a shallow fantasy position for managers this season. That said, he offers little upside against the Commanders next Sunday.

Scott rushed three times for 17 yards and caught his only target for four yards in Sunday's 26-0 loss to Seattle.

Scott was thrust into a more significant role in the second half against the Seahawks after Aaron Jones (shoulder) exited the game and did not return. Scott hadn't garnered a carry since Week 8, and he was able to produce an inspiring 5.7 yards per tote in Week 13. If Jones is forced to miss any action moving forward, Scott will likely operate as the team's primary pass-catching back while in a timeshare with Jordan Mason in Minnesota's backfield.

Shakir had one reception on four targets for five yards in Sunday's 26-7 win over the Steelers.

Shakir struggled with drops, finishing with a season-low catch rate of 25 percent against Pittsburgh's secondary. The four targets still led all Buffalo wide receivers as the team continues searching for reliable auxiliary targets for Josh Allen to throw to. Shakir was fresh off posting a 100-plus yard receiving game in the Week 12 box score, and he remains the top option on the perimeter despite Sunday's putrid effort. Fantasy managers are looking for a bounce-back effort from Shakir in a soft matchup against Cincinnati's defense next Sunday.

Shaheed caught one of three targets for seven yards and churned out 43 yards on three punt returns in Sunday's 26-0 win over the Vikings.

Shaheed was once again a non-factor on offense in Week 13, reeling in a pass for seven yards in the second quarter. After securing at least four passes in all nine of his contests with the Saints prior to being traded, the wide receiver has had only one multi-reception performance with Seattle, catching four of 11 targets for 37 yards over four games with the team. Shaheed will look to be more involved on offense in Week 14 against Atlanta.

Warren rushed the ball 10 times for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Bills. He added two receptions on four targets for nine yards.

The Steelers' offense wasn't able to get anything going on the ground or through the air, though Warren did manage to record their only touchdown of the day on a one-yard plunge midway through the second quarter. He otherwise was limited to a long gain of 12 yards to turn in his second-lowest yardage total of the campaign. Positively, Warren has four touchdowns in his five games after tallying only one in his first six contests.

Knox caught three of four targets for 28 yards in the Bills' 26-7 win over the Steelers on Sunday.

With Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) still idle for Week 13, Knox drew four targets to Jackson Hawes' one. Knox's three catches tied James Cook and Ty Johnson for the team lead against Pittsburgh. Through 12 games this season, Knox has a 19-223-1 receiving line on 29 targets. He carries minimal fantasy appeal but could be a plug-and-play option next Sunday against the Bengals' league-worst defense against tight ends if Kincaid misses another contest.
