Matt LaCosse catches four passes against the Browns.

LaCosse gained 43 yards on his four Week 15 receptions, and he did a good job with the ball in his hands after the catch. LaCosse is the top tight end for Denver right now, but he’s not a recommended fantasy option in championship weeks.

Lee Smith scores against the Steelers.

Smith caught one pass for three yards and a touchdown in the Raiders’ Week 14 win. Smith is a better real-life contributor than he is a fantasy asset at the moment.

Jarvis Landry caught three passes for 37 yards in Saturday night’s win over the Broncos.

Landry actually led the team in receiving on eight targets, but the passing attack didn’t get much going in a tough environment. Still, it was enough to come away with a win and improve to 6-7-1 for the Browns, and they will look to really thrust themselves into the playoff race with a win against the Bengals next Sunday. Landry had just three receptions for 30 yards in Cincinnati last month, so he remains just a FLEX option.

Derek Carrier scores in Week 14.

Carrier caught two passes for 29 yards and a touchdown against the Steelers. He had a 23-yard reception down the seam and scored on a six-yard touchdown was a game-winner in a tough win for Oakland. Carrier is not a recommended fantasy option right now, as he’s a better real-life contributor for his team.

DaeSean Hamilton catches seven passes against the Browns.

Hamilton gained 46 yards on his seven receptions in the Broncos’ Week 15 Saturday night loss. The rookie receiver was targeted a team-high 12 times in the game, and he now has seven receptions in each of the past two games since Emmanuel Sanders’ season-ending Achilles tear. Hamilton looked to be open on a deep ball late in the game, but Case Keenum’s throw was out of bounds. Particularly in PPR leagues, Hamilton looks like a solid low-floor option for fantasy finals.

Rico Gathers catches one pass in Week 14 victory.

It went for a loss of one yard. Gathers has talent, but he isn’t a recommended fantasy option.

Duke Johnson handles eight touches in win over the Broncos.

Johnson rushed four times for 28 yards and caught four passes for 25 yards. Cleveland’s receiving back hasn’t been a huge factor this year, but he was able to get more involved against a stingy Denver defense. Fantasy owners should look elsewhere for Week 16 when Cincinnati comes to town.
