Marvin Jones Jr. goes over 80 yards in Week 15.

Jones was targeted five times against the Bears, catching five passes for 85 yards. The best play of the day might’ve been his great leaping catch for 58 yards, as he elevated in front of Bears safety Eddie Jackson on a bomb down the field. Jones has at least 64 yards in each of the last five games, and he will be a good option next week against the Browns.

Kenny Stills gets four targets against the Patriots.

Stills caught two passes for 18 yards in the Week 14 win. After four consecutive solid games for Stills, this was a bit of a dud for the first week of the fantasy playoffs. Stills is a boom/bust option next week versus Buffalo.

Jacoby Brissett runs for a touchdown in Week 15.

Brissett got off to a good start against the Broncos, running in for a score inside the ten-yard line early in the game. The second-year quarterback was 17/30 for 158 yards along with five carries for 18 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. Brissett isn’t a fantasy option next Saturday against Baltimore, but he’ll get more valuable experience under center.

DeVante Parker catches four passes in Week 14.

Parker gained 40 yards on his four receptions, though he did have another drop on a crossing route and had a pass that might be considered a drop on another crossing route late in the game. Considering he had to deal with Patriots cornerback Stephon Gilmore for most of the game, this is a good step for Parker as he looks to show his huge playmaking ability over the last few weeks of the season.

Ameer Abdullah gets four touches in Lions’ win.

In his return after a two-game absence for a neck injury (though last week was reportedly a health scratch), Abdullah had one carry for eight yards and three receptions for 12 yards. There’s no way to trust Abdullah in fantasy lineups right now, despite his ability as a runner and receiver

Jakeem Grant scores in Dolphins’ win.

Grant caught two passes for 42 yards and a touchdown against the Patriots, with the score coming on a go route where he made a great leaping catch amid good coverage by Patriots cornerback Malcolm Butler. It was the second-year receiver’s first career receiving touchdown, and the team was pretty fired up on the sideline after the play. Grant isn’t a fantasy option, but it’s good to see him make plays for his team.

Jeff Heuerman catches long touchdown in Broncos’ win.

Heuerman was target once against the Colts, catching a deep pass down the middle of the field for a 54-yard touchdown. It was a perfect throw by Brock Osweiler, and Heuerman did the rest by throwing a stiff arm and getting into the end zone. Heuerman isn’t a recommended fantasy option, as he has only eight receptions this year.
