Jeff Wilson Jr. Has Six Touches In Blowout Loss

Miami Dolphins running back Jeff Wilson Jr. played a season-high 49 percent of the offensive snaps with Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) out in the ugly 56-19 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, but he had just three carries for 21 yards and caught three of his four targets for 13 yards.

Zay Jones Could Play In Week 18

Odell Beckham Jr. Has Just One Catch In Blowout Win

The Baltimore Ravens didn't need wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. much in their 56-19 beatdown of the Miami Dolphins in Week 17 on Sunday.

Houston Texans tight end Brevin Jordan caught both of his targets for 19 yards and one touchdown during a win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 17.

Dalton Schultz Catches Just Two Passes Sunday

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz turned four targets into just two catches for 19 yards during Sunday's win over the Tennessee Titans. It was a disappointing outing from the 27-year-old, who was just one week removed from a big eight-catch, 61-yard outburst versus Cleveland. With that said, the Texans' passing attack didn't have to […]
