Sweat recorded four tackles, including two solo, and 0.5 sacks in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Sweat finished his seventh NFL season with career highs in sacks (10.0) and tackles (53) while reaching the sack column in eight of his final 12 contests. He also added six passes defended, three forced fumbles and a fumble recovery, solidifying his profile as a sack-dependent but productive IDP. He is signed with Chicago through 2027 and remains a weekly edge-rusher option.

Santos did not attempt a kick in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Santos provided a stable weekly fantasy floor across the season, scoring fewer than six points in only two games while finishing with a high of 13 points. However, his efficiency continued to trend down after failing to top 84.0 percent accuracy for the second straight year. He is signed with Chicago through 2027 but offers limited upside relative to other fantasy kickers.

Kmet caught two of three targets for 16 yards in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Kmet finished the regular season with 30 receptions (on 48 targets) for 347 yards and two touchdowns while catching two or fewer passes in all but three games. He was held under 20 receiving yards nine times and frequently operated as a blocker in two-tight-end sets alongside rookie first-round pick Colston Loveland. Kmet is signed with Chicago through 2027 but projects as a low-ceiling fantasy option if his usage remains unchanged.

Zaccheaus was not targeted in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Zaccheaus played only six snaps and closed the season with 39 receptions (on 65 targets) for 313 yards and two touchdowns. He opened the year as the primary slot receiver but failed to record more than two catches in any of his final seven games as Luther Burden's role increased. Zaccheaus is set to hit free agency and profiles as a depth receiver entering 2026.

Odunze was inactive in the Bears' 19-16 loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Odunze missed the final five games of the season with a foot injury after finishing his second year with 44 receptions (on 90 targets) for 661 yards and six touchdowns. He posted four games with at least 62 receiving yards through the first half of the season before averaging 36 yards over his final five appearances. He just completed the second year of his rookie contract and remains positioned as a long-term building block if the passing volume expands in 2026. The team is hoping to get Odunze back for the wild-card game against the Packers on Saturday.

Gesicki had two catches for 13 yards in Sunday's loss to the Browns, catching both of his targets. He finished the season with 28 catches for 307 yards and two touchdowns while playing 13 games.

Gesicki didn't make the same impact as he did in 2024, when he caught 65 passes for 665 yards and two touchdowns. The Bengals made a point of bringing back Gesicki this past offseason, instead of continuing their practice of signing discount rental tight ends. Obviously, Joe Burrow's toe injury that forced him to miss eight games hurt Gesicki's production, as did the latter's pectoral injury. Gesicki will be back for the 2026 season.

Gordon carried the ball nine times for nine yards during Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Patriots. He also secured his only target for two yards.

Gordon was only slightly less efficient than lead ballcarrier Jaylen Wright (13 carries for 23 yards), as the Dolphins were unable to do anything of note on the ground with De'Von Achane (shoulder) sidelined Week 18. A rookie sixth-round pick, Gordon impressed during the preseason for Miami and kicked off the regular season in the No. 2 role behind Achane, but over the course of the year he fell to the No. 3 spot. Across 17 regular-season appearances, Gordon compiled 70 carries for 199 yards (2.8 YPC) and three scores, while also securing seven of nine targets for 32 yards and a touchdown. He figures to spend the offseason competing with Wright for depth opportunities behind Achane.

Wilson failed to secure either of his targets during Miami's 38-10 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

Wilson failed to secure more than a single catch in any of the 10 regular-season appearances he logged with the Dolphins in 2025, finishing the year with a 5-44-0 receiving line on nine targets. The 30-year-old veteran is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. Whether he re-signs with Miami or competes for a depth role elsewhere, Wilson's best odds of sticking with a team for the 2026 campaign will likely be as a member of a practice squad.

Hill secured his only target for eight yards during Miami's 38-10 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.

Hill suited up for 14 regular-season games across the course of the 2025 campaign, securing 15 of 20 targets for a career-high 140 receiving yards. He's set to become a restricted free agent this offseason, meaning the Dolphins will have the right to match any offer he receives from another team. Top tight ends Darren Waller (IR, groin) and Greg Dulcich are both slated to become unrestricted free agents, meaning Hill could face a relatively open depth chart if he does return to Miami. Still, Hill is primarily a blocking tight end and seems unlikely to ever emerge as a consistent target in the passing game.

Hopkins caught 22 of 39 targets for 330 yards and two touchdowns across 17 games in 2025.

The veteran joined the Ravens on a one-year deal in the offseason and started the season strong. He caught touchdowns in each of his first two games and was remarkably efficient through the first six weeks of the season; Hopkins caught nine of 13 passes for 178 yards and two scores in that span. His best game the rest of the way was four catches for 41 yards. In fairness, it was a topsy-turvy year for the Ravens offense as it had to navigate a Lamar Jackson injury, but Hopkins still only managed to play 33 percent of the snaps. Hopkins, who turns 34 in June, will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
