Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Tyler Lockett (wrist) reeled in two of four targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 31-0 road loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Lockett picked up a wrist injury late in the first half that had the team deem him questionable coming out of halftime. He'd re-enter the game in the third quarter, though he did not receive another opportunity in the passing game. It was a rough day for the offense as a whole, considering Las Vegas ran just 42 offensive plays and was shut out for the second time this season. Even if Lockett makes it through the upcoming week of practice without a setback, he may be falling out of favor in the offense. Rookie wideout
Jack Bech has accrued a higher snap share than the veteran in the previous three games, out-producing him in each.

According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, New Orleans Saints running back
Devin Neal (hamstring) has been ruled out for the remainder of their Week 15 contest due to a hamstring injury. Neal sustained this injury in the first half. Before exiting, he was able to punch in a rushing score and tally 28 yards on seven attempts. The rookie also brought his lone target for four yards. With
Alvin Kamara (knee) on the shelf and
Kendre Miller (knee) shut down for this season, Neal has taken over RB1 duties in New Orleans. For the remainder of this contest, fantasy managers should expect
Audric Estime and
Evan Hull to split the backfield. Managers should keep a close eye on Neal's status during the week, as he would carry RB2 upside in a favorable matchup against the Jets in Week 16.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver
Tyquan Thornton (concussion) exited Sunday's loss to the Chargers in the concussion protocol. The wideout sustained this injury in the final frame after catching a 21-yard strike from
Patrick Mahomes. Thornton finished the game with two catches on three targets for 47 yards. His yardage total trailed just
Rashee Rice and
Travis Kelce. With
Marquise Brown unable to suit up due to personal reasons, Thornton saw a larger role. Managers should monitor his status leading up to their Week 16 matchup against the Titans. If he is unable to play,
JuJu Smith-Schuster would likely see an increase in snaps but would not carry much fantasy value as their QB, Patrick Mahomes, exited this contest with a knee injury and is alos in danger of sitting out next week.

Per the team, New Orleans Saints running back
Devin Neal (hamstring) is questionable to return for Sunday's home game against their division rival, the Carolina Panthers. The Kansas native picked up his third straight start in Week 15 with backfield mate
Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) sidelined again. However, he'd exit the contest in the first half after picking up 32 total yards and a touchdown on his eight opportunities (one reception). For the time being, teammates
Audric Estime and
Evan Hull will divvy up the share of backfield touches in his stead. Hull has more total work on the campaign, although Estime has out-carried the former in each of their previous two outings.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback
Jacoby Brissett went 27-for-40 for 249 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in his team's 40-20 Week 15 loss to the Houston Texans. Brissett also had three carries for six yards on the ground. Arizona's pass-happy offense continues to allow Brissett to post solid numbers week in and week out. The 33-year-old veteran has now thrown at least two touchdown passes in his last eight of nine games. Brissett has also thrown at least 40 passing attempts in his last six games and has thrown over 245 yards in every game he has started this season. If the Cardinals continue to play in pass-heavy game scripts, Brissett profiles as a viable starting fantasy quarterback for the remainder of the season. Arizona will host the Atlanta Falcons in Week 15.

The Denver Post's Parker Gabriel reports that Denver Broncos wide receiver
Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion) has exited Sunday's matchup with the Green Bay Packers to be evaluated for a concussion and is questionable to return. Mims was forced from the contest in the first half, hauling in his lone target for a gain of five yards. With teammate
Pat Bryant (hamstring) already having been ruled out before the contest with an issue of his own, Denver would be pretty thin at wide receiver. With the former second-round pick on the sideline, fellow wideouts
Lil'Jordan Humphrey and
Michael Bandy figure to pick up some extra snaps. As it stands, Humphrey, Bandy,
Courtland Sutton, and
Troy Franklin are the only remaining WRs without an injury designation on the active roster.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback
Trevor Lawrence had a career day in the Week 15 48-20 win over the visiting New York Jets on Sunday. The fifth-year pro was excellent in the lopsided victory, completing 20-of-32 passes for 330 yards and five scores, adding 51 yards and an additional touchdown on the ground (five carries). Lawrence's five passing TDs were a new personal best and his most in a game since he threw four in Week 15 of the 2022 season. Over the last three outings, the 26-year-old has piled up a stellar 9:0 TD:INT ratio, while averaging 267.7 yards per game through the air -- over 40 yards higher than his average on the campaign as a whole (221.5). Sitting atop the AFC East with a game between them and their division-rival Houston Texans, Lawrence and the Jags will prepare for a far more challenging test next Sunday when they line up against the Denver Broncos on the road.

Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver
Isaiah Bond hauled in two deep shots for 89 yards Sunday afternoon, benefiting fantasy managers brave or desperate enough to start him in Week 15. Even though wide receiver
Cedric Tillman (concussion, ribs) cleared the league's concussion protocol and was active on Sunday, Bond lined up across from
Jerry Jeudy as the Browns' WR2 and earned four targets, his most since Week 9. The two long receptions to Bond were the few glimpses of life from the Browns' sputtering offense on Sunday, and demonstrate growing trust from fellow rookie quarterback
Shedeur Sanders. The Cleveland Browns will host the Buffalo Bills in Week 16, which is a neutral matchup for opposing wide receivers. However, Bond remains an exceptionally deep league option versus Buffalo for the second week of the fantasy playoffs.

Arizona Cardinals tight end
Trey McBride had a historic day in the Week 15 loss against the Houston Texans, recording 12 catches for 134 yards with two touchdowns on 13 targets. McBride became the first tight end in NFL history with at least 100 receptions in consecutive seasons, and set a new NFL record for most consecutive games, 16, with at least five receptions.
Travis Kelce had previously set the record in 2018 with 15 straight games, according to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN. McBride's Week 15 performance is further magnified by his dominance against one of the best defenses in the NFL, highlighting his historic play in 2025. The 26-year-old has now hauled in 105 receptions for 1,071 yards and 10 touchdowns on 140 targets across 14 games this season. As long as McBride remains healthy, he profiles as the number one tight end in fantasy football by a healthy margin. Arizona will host the Atlanta Falcons in Week 16.

Head coach Andy Reid reports that Kansas City Chiefs quarterback
Patrick Mahomes (knee) will undergo an MRI on his injured left knee. Mahomes exited Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers late in the fourth quarter after landing awkwardly on his left knee. It's never good news when an athlete suffers a non-contact injury, leaving questions about the former Texas Tech Red Raider's status for the remainder of the season. For what it's worth, Reid confirmed what most of us watching already knew, that the injury "didn't look good." Journeyman signal-caller
Gardner Minshew worked in Mahomes' stead for the remainder of Week 15's outing, and projects to be the team's solution under center if the latter is forced to miss more time moving forward. Fantasy managers can expect an update on the 30-year-old within the next 24 hours.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver
Jerry Jeudy tallied just two receptions and 22 yards off his four targets during Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bears in Week 15. Rookie quarterback
Shedeur Sanders was under pressure all afternoon in Chicago, and the two have struggled to build a rapport since Sanders took over the starting position in Week 12. Sanders did look for Jeudy once in the end zone, but Jeudy was unable to haul in this fantasy-salvaging pass, and the Bears defender came away with the ball. Jeudy and the Browns head back to Cleveland in Week 16 to take on the Buffalo Bills. Even though this is a neutral match-up for wide receivers, Jeudy remains a fringe WR3/FLEX option in deep leagues moving forward.

San Francisco wide receiver
Ricky Pearsall limped off the field and into the team's medical tent following his first catch of Week 15. Pearsall appeared to be dealing with an ankle issue after being tackled by a Tennessee defender. Following a brief stay in the medical tent, the second-year pro was seen exercising on the sideline and has since returned to action against the Titans.

Cleveland Browns rookie running back
Quinshon Judkins had the backfield to himself during Sunday's 31-3 loss to the Chicago Bears, but he only managed to turn his 12 rushing attempts into 21 yards. Judkins continued his involvement in the Browns' anemic passing offense with four targets, but his three receptions resulted in a net loss of four yards. This is the second straight week Judkins has failed to gain more than 30 yards, and he was kept out of the end zone in Chicago. The Cleveland Browns face the Buffalo Bills in Week 16, who have recently struggled to defend the run. With fellow rookie running back
Dylan Sampson (calf, hand) still managing injuries, Judkins should see the majority of the backfield workload again in a more favorable matchup.

Kansas City quarterback
Patrick Mahomes suffered an apparent knee injury late in the team's Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The three-time Super Bowl winner was replaced by
Gardner Minshew on the Chiefs' final possession after taking a hit while attempting a pass. Mahomes did not return to the game and was seen being helped to the Kansas City locker room by members of the training staff. The Chiefs were mathematically eliminated from the NFL playoffs with the loss, marking the first time in Mahomes' career that he's failed to qualify for the postseason.

Chicago Bears wide receiver
Luther Burden III (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the visiting Cleveland Browns, according to the team. The rookie hauled in 6-of-7 targets for 84 yards (all team-highs) before exiting the contest in the second half with an ankle injury. If Burden is unable to rejoin his squad on the field, fellow wideout
DJ Moore projects to see a considerable uptick in volume. Teammate
Rome Odunze (foot) has already been ruled out after re-aggravating his foot issue, so Moore,
Olamide Zaccheaus, and
Devin Duvernay remain as the only active WRs without a designation. Expect an update on the University of Missouri product soon.
