John Brown catches one pass against the Buccaneers.

Brown gained nine yards on his lone reception in the Ravens’ Week 15 victory. Smokey is one of the league’s best big-play threats, so there’s always a chance he can make one big play to deliver fantasy value, but there isn’t much hope for his value right now with Lamar Jackson under-center in a run-heavy offense. This might’ve been the week for him to have a huge game coming off a touchdown in Week 14. Brown hasn’t crossed 30 yards since Week 7.

Jarius Wright catches three passes for 21 yards in Monday night’s loss to New Orleans.

Wright worked as the No. 3 receiver ahead of Devin Funchess, but fantasy owners should look elsewhere with Cam Newton struggling mightily. The Panthers take on the Falcons next week.

Tevin Coleman goes off for career-high 145 rushing yards in Week 15 win.

Coleman rushed 11 times for 145 yards, including a 43-yard touchdown. He also had another long touchdown called back by a penalty, and the explosive back didn’t catch his only target. Coleman continued to split time with Ito Smith, but his big-play ability was on full display on limited touches, and he will remain a high-upside RB2 option for the fantasy championship. Atlanta takes on the Panthers next week in Carolina.

Benjamin Watson catches one pass against the Panthers.

Watson gained 28 yards on his lone Week 15 reception. He was also targeted on a deep ball that Drew Brees put right on the money in stride, but the ball was popped out just as he was trying to compete the process of the catch. The veteran tight end might need a touchdown to deliver fantasy value in title matchups next week when he faces the Steelers.

Hayden Hurst catches three passes against the Bucs.

Hurst gained 20 yards on his three Week 15 receptions. The rookie tight end is more of a strong dynasty-league hold than a redraft asset entering fantasy championship weeks.

Chris Manhertz catches 50-yard touchdown in loss to the Saints.

It was his only catch of the game, the first score of his of his career, and the only touchdown for Carolina in a 12-9 loss. And it came on a trick play pass from Christian McCaffrey. It was good to see the 26-year-old find the end zone in his fourth season in the league.

Mark Andrews catches two passes against the Bucs.

Andrews gained 31 arid on his two receptions in the Ravens’ Week 15 victory. Andrews is not a recommended fantasy option for fantasy finals, especially in a tough matchup with the Chargers this Saturday night.
