Laquon Treadwell caught two passes for 23 yards in Sunday’s loss to Carolina.

Treadwell made a nice reaching catch over the middle when Minnesota was in the midst of a comeback, but he also committed a drop on a similar play later in the game. The 2016 first-round pick only needs to be owned in dynasty leagues.

Cordarrelle Patterson, Raiders held in check as they fall to Kansas City.

Patterson caught three passes for just eight yards. The former first-round pick isn’t a recommended fantasy option down the stretch, including next Sunday night when Oakland plays Dallas.

Kyle Rudolph scores in Week 14 loss.

Rudolph caught three passes for 41 yards, including an 18-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter. He was mostly quiet outside of that, but he also had an impact when he uncharacteristically dropped a big gain on a seam route. Minnesota’s tight end should catch everything he gets his hands on next week against Cincinnati, and he remains a solid TE1.

Derek Carr, Raiders fall to 6-7 with ugly loss to Kansas City.

Carr was 24/41 for 211 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions in a 26-15 defeat. The Chiefs were up 26-0 after three quarters, so Carr’s day was basically saved by garbage time. The 2016 MVP candidate has largely been a disappointment this season, but he will look to bounce back in primetime against the Cowboys next Sunday night and keep Oakland in reach of the winner of Chiefs-Chargers in the division. Carr probably isn’t a QB1 in Week 15.

Stefon Diggs, Vikings come up short against the Panthers.

Diggs caught six passes for 64 yards, but was also on the receiving end of a Case Keenum interception in the fourth quarter that bounced off his helmet. It was a high throw, but Diggs will probably say he could have had it. Minnesota was still able to comeback and tie things up, but Cam Newton eventually led a game-winning touchdown drive. Diggs will likely remain a low-end WR2/FLEX option in Week 15 against Cincinnati.

Johnny Holton caught two passes for 18 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Chiefs.

Holton most likely needs a deep touchdown to be worth a start, so he can stay on the waiver wire heading into a matchup with the Cowboys.

Adam Thielen has another big day in loss to the Panthers.

Thielen caught six passes for 105 yards and a touchdown. The score was a 52-yarder down the middle where he outran the defense and essentially made it a game when things were looking bleak for Minnesota. They were able to tie things up with a field goal on the following drive, but Carolina answered with a game-winning touchdown drive to win 31-24. Thielen also couldn’t bring in two would-be touchdowns down near the goal line earlier in the game, but fantasy owners should be happy with their star receiver. He’s a solid WR1 in Week 15 against Cincinnati.
