Washington Commanders WR Jamal Agnew was waived on Tuesday, Dec. 23, after failing his physical with the team. He was claimed off waivers on Monday, Dec. 22.
Link to storyPittsburgh Steelers WR Roman Wilson could see an opportunity 'to show his professionalism and his readiness and how he's been sharpening his sword for battle,' according to head coach Mike Tomlin.
| Footballguys view: Wilson has been a healthy scratch the last three games due to the emergence of veteran receivers Adam Thielen and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. "One man's misfortune is another man's opportunity," Tomlin said. The misfortune Tomlin refers to is DK Metcalf's. The team's WR1 has been suspended for two games -- pending an appeal (scheduled for today). It's hard to imagine Metcalf winning this appeal outright, so we expect opportunities against the Browns. But none of the team's remaining wideouts, Wilson included, will be trustworthy options in Week 17. |
New England Patriots WR Kayshon Boutte (concussion) is in the concussion protocol Tuesday, Dec. 23.
| Footballguys view: Boutte being out could mean more work for rookie wideout Kyle Williams, who hauled in a 37-yard touchdown pass against the Ravens. DeMario Douglas, who has been quiet in recent weeks, could also see more action. Remember, however, Douglas left Sunday's game with a hamstring injury. Head coach Mike Vrabel didn't offer an update on Douglas. We'll be watching for more on Boutte and Douglas as the week progresses. |

Updating previous reports, Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf, who is appealing his two-game suspension, will forfeit $555,556 for the two games. The suspension would also void $45 million in future guaranteed money, according to his contract, which was reviewed by CBS Sports and ESPN.
| Footballguys view: We'll watch for word on the appeal, but assuming Metcalf misses time, the Steelers will be without a clear No. 1 receiver in their final two regular-season games. The position group could be even more depleted after Calvin Austin III left the 29-24 victory against the Lions with a hamstring injury. While RB Kenneth Gainwell leads the Steelers with 62 receptions, Metcalf leads the team with 850 receiving yards on 59 catches. The Steelers added WR Adam Thielen to the active roster, and he fared well against Detroit. Again, the appeal is pending, but fantasy managers should make other plans. |

Indianapolis Colts WR Josh Downs had five catches for 65 yards against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 16. Downs was targeted a game-high nine times.

Indianapolis Colts WR Alec Pierce tallied four receptions, 86 yards, and two touchdowns in a Week 16 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
| Footballguys view: Pierce's value is now at an all-time high, and with him set to hit free agency this offseason, the Colts will likely have competition to retain him. As A to Z Sports' Destin Adam suggested, Pierce has positioned himself well with the most receiving yards of his career (871) and four touchdowns. He'll also be somebody fantasy investors have great interest in next summer, regardless of landing spot. |

Link to storyPittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf could be fined or suspended by the league after grabbing a fan during the game Sunday, Dec. 21, and appearing to throw a slap or a punch at him.
| Footballguys view: The CBS broadcast showed Metcalf talking to the fan, who was in a blue wig and hanging over the first-row railing. In an angle of the incident posted on Instagram, Metcalf walked up to the fan, grabbed him by his shirt collar to pull him closer, then forcefully shoved him back. The fan told the Detroit Free Press he called Metcalf by his full name -- DeKaylin Zecharius Metcalf -- prompting the interaction. Because no flag was thrown during the incident, the NFL claims it cannot weigh in on a disqualification, which is why Metcalf could continue playing. Stay tuned. |
