Franklin Maintains Rebounded Role in Loss
Broncos WR Troy Franklin tallied 4 catches for 66 receiving yards in Sunday's loss to the Jaguars. This occurred despite Bo Nix attempting 47 passes in a game his team trailed from the middle of the third quarter on.
Schultz Catches Stroud's Only TD Pass
Schultz had five receptions on as many targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Raiders. It was his third touchdown catch of the season, surpassing last year's total. He provides a consistent floor for fantasy managers.
Boutte Sustains Head Injury
Kayshon Boutte (head) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens. He caught one of three targets for 16 yards prior to the injury, which occurred in the fourth quarter on a play where he bobbled the ball.
Jordan Leads Texans' Rushing Attack
Jawhar Jordan handled 15 carries for 53 yards while catching all five of his targets for 17 yards in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Raiders. He paced the Texans' backfield in touches and production, though his relevance may be short-lived if Woody Marks returns next week.
Washington Scores TD Against Broncos
Parker Washington caught a 12-yard touchdown pass from Trevor Lawrence to give the Jaguars the lead over the Broncos. Washington recorded six receptions on 10 targets for 145 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 34-20 win, a career-best performance.
Hill Leads Saints' Backfield, Throws TD Pass
Taysom Hill rushed 12 times for 42 yards, caught four of six targets for 36 yards, and threw a 38-yard touchdown pass in Sunday's 29-6 win over the Jets. He became the first player in the Super Bowl era with 1,000 career yards in passing, rushing, and receiving. He lost a fumble.
Etienne Scores Receiving TD in Jaguars' Win
Travis Etienne rushed 16 times for 50 yards and added four receptions for 16 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-20 win over the Broncos. He has 10 total touchdowns across his last seven games, making him a consistent fantasy contributor despite inconsistent rushing efficiency.
Carter Gains 65 Yards as Starter Sunday
Michael Carter rushed 11 times for 65 yards while failing to collect either of his two targets in Sunday's 26-19 loss to Atlanta. He commanded the lion's share of backfield carries, finishing well ahead of backups Corey Kiner and Emari Demercado. Carter should continue seeing enough volume as Arizona's fill-in starter.
St. Brown Held to 54 Yards in Loss to Steelers
Amon-Ra St. Brown recorded four receptions on nine targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers. He had a touchdown nullified by an offensive pass interference penalty late in the fourth quarter. He faces another tough matchup in Week 17 against the Vikings.
Cousins Scores Three TDs in Week 16 Win
Kirk Cousins completed 21 of 35 pass attempts for 197 yards, two touchdowns, one interception, and a lost fumble, while also scoring a third touchdown on the ground in Sunday's 26-19 win over Arizona. His QB sneak in the fourth quarter served as the game-deciding score. He has shown flashes of former glory after a rusty start.
Goff Throws Three Touchdowns Against Steelers
Jared Goff completed 34 of 54 passes for 364 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers. He took to the air a season-high 54 times and has topped 300 passing yards in three straight games.
Brissett Finds Wilson for TD vs. Falcons
Jacoby Brissett found Michael Wilson for a 32-yard touchdown, giving the Cardinals the lead over the Falcons. Brissett completed 16 of 31 passes for 203 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the 26-19 loss.
Harrison Limited to One Grab in Week 16 Return
Marvin Harrison (heel) had one reception on three targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 26-19 loss to the Falcons. This marked his lowest reception and yardage totals of the season, potentially due to his nagging heel injury and a tough matchup.
Henderson Ruled Out Against Ravens With Head Injury
TreVeyon Henderson (head) won't return to Sunday's game against the Ravens after being ruled out at halftime. Rhamondre Stevenson will lead New England's backfield in the second half. Henderson was injured in the second quarter.
Smith Throws Two TDs in Week 16 Return
Geno Smith (shoulder/back) completed 16 of 23 pass attempts for 201 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in Sunday's 23-21 loss to the Texans. He performed well in his return from injury, highlighting his playmaking ability despite the Raiders' loss.
Pickens Explodes for 130 Yards, TD in Rebound Performance
Cowboys WR George Pickens delivered a strong rebound performance, catching seven of nine targets for 130 yards and a 38-yard touchdown in the 34-17 loss to the Chargers, marking his fifth 100-yard game. This outing snapped a two-week slump of low yardage. He's compiled a career-best campaign with 88 catches, 1,342 yards, and nine touchdowns, with target share increasing after a teammate's injury. FOX Sports analyst Terry Bradshaw commented on Pickens needing to play for everyone, not just stats, as his contract year concludes. He led the team in receptions, yardage, and targets, and will look to continue his success in Week 17 against the Commanders.
Stroud Plays Game Manager Role in Week 16 Win
C.J. Stroud completed 23 of 35 pass attempts for 187 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-21 victory over Las Vegas. He returned to a game-manager style, protecting the ball and doing just enough to secure the win. He failed to extend his streak of 200+ passing yards to four games.
Pitts Stays Hot With Another TD in Win
Kyle Pitts corralled seven of nine targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Cardinals. He has averaged 98.8 yards with four touchdowns over his last four starts, maintaining an elevated role even with Drake London active.
Williams Bottled Up by Chargers in Loss
Javonte Williams carried the ball nine times for 34 yards and caught two of three targets for nine yards in Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Chargers. His 43 scrimmage yards were his second-lowest output of the season. He has 1,147 rushing yards and 10 TDs on the season.
