Lions | Amon-Ra St. Brown dominates Chicago Sun Jan 4, 08:44 PM
Detroit Lions WR Amon-Ra St. Brown caught 11 of his 15 targets for 139 yards in a 19-16 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 18.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com noted, St. Brown shook off a questionable designation (knee) and put together one of his best performances of the season. He led the team in receptions, receiving yards, and targets. His 24.9 fantasy points ranked third among receivers through Sunday night's kickoff. St. Brown finished the year with 117 receptions for 1,401 yards and 11 touchdowns and added three carries for nine yards across 17 games. St. Brown, who finishes the season as WR3 overall, will naturally serve as a centerpiece of the Lions' air attack again in 2026. |

Jets | Isaiah Williams shines with 142 return yards Sun Jan 4, 07:29 PM
New York Jets WR Isaiah Williams posted team highs with five receptions and 24 yards on seven targets in Week 18 against the Buffalo Bills, while posting five kick returns for 142 yards.
| Footballguys view: Williams was signed from the Bengals practice squad in Week 2, was waived to the practice squad by the Jets after fumbling in Week 4, but returned in Week 6 and ended up being the team's MVP. That's the kind of season it was for the Jets. |

Minnesota Vikings WR Jalen Nailor posted three receptions for 49 yards on three targets in Week 18 against the Green Bay Packers. He ended the season with career bests of 29 receptions and 444 yards, while adding four touchdowns.
Link to story Falcons | Drake London catches TD pass Sun Jan 4, 06:38 PM
Atlanta Falcons WR Drake London caught four passes for 78 yards and one touchdown against the New Orleans Saints in Week 18. He was targeted eight times during the game.
| Footballguys view: London had a big high point catch downfield, reminding us of his ability to take over games. We are still waiting for him to put together a full WR1 fantasy season, but we saw London at his peak before suffering a nagging knee injury. He should go in the first round of many 2026 fantasy drafts despite the Week 1 uncertainty at quarterback for the Falcons. |
Vikings | Justin Jefferson hits triple digits in Week 18 Sun Jan 4, 06:35 PM
Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson ended up with eight receptions for 101 yards on 11 targets in Week 18 against the Green Bay Packers, while running once for three yards. He ended up going over 1,000 yards on the season, 1,048 to be exact, with the solid finish.
| Footballguys view: This has to be the most disappointing 1000 yard season in fantasy football history. Jefferson's production was so inconsistent and unexciting with JJ McCarthy that he was on the bench in the fantasy playoffs, and he didn't make people regret doing it. He should fall to the second round in next season's drafts, which could be an overreaction, but if the Vikings don't upgrade their quarterback situation, it will probably be a vast underreaction to the developments with Jefferson's weekly value this season. |

Giants | Gunner Olszewski has career day vs. Cowboys Sun Jan 4, 05:51 PM
New York Giants WR Gunner Olszewski caught eight of nine targets for 102 yards in a Week 18 win over the Dallas Cowboys.
| Footballguys view: Add Olszewski to the pantheon of Week 18 (formerly Week 17) one week wonders and the list of offensive accomplishments against the Cowboys that should cause shame, starting with making Russell Wilson look like a good NFL quarterback in the first matchup between these teams this season. |

Jacksonville Jaguars WR Jakobi Meyers caught five passes for 44 yards against the Tennessee Titans in Week 18. He was targeted six times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Meyers was a mostly modest producer during Trevor Lawrence's late season tear, but there's no doubt that adding him to the offense helped turn the season around for the quarterback. Meyers will be a stalwart in this offense through at least 2027 after signing an extension a few weeks ago as an early Christmas present. |

Jaguars | Brian Thomas finishes with 49 yards Sun Jan 4, 05:08 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars WR Brian Thomas Jr. caught three passes for 49 yards against the Tennessee Titans in Week 18. He was targeted five times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Thomas was a massive fantasy bust as a first round pick as Mac Jones also played well for the 49ers, forcing us to recontextual the massive fantasy run the combination went in the second half of 2024. Thomas will be a hotly debated player in fantasy circles next season. It's not completely out of the question that he could be available via trade if anyone calls up Jaguars GM James Gladstone, who inherited Thomas from the previous regime. |
Bengals | Tee Higgins secures TD in Week 18 Sun Jan 4, 05:08 PM
Cincinnati Bengals WR Tee Higgins ended up with six receptions for 67 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in Week 18 against the Cleveland Browns.
| Footballguys view: Higgins underperformed his fantasy draft cost, but more because of injuries than any overestimation of the value of the intersection of his talent and situation. He'll likely be undervalued in fantasy drafts and dynasty leagues this offseason. |

Cowboys | George Pickens limited to one grab in finale Sun Jan 4, 05:06 PM
Dallas Cowboys WR George Pickens caught one of three targets for nine yards in a Week 18 loss to the New York Giants.
| Footballguys view: Pickens will be one of the most discussed players this offseason as a free agent that will likely get the franchise tag or a new contract from the Cowboys. Pickens was mostly a difference maker in a positive way during his first season in Dallas, but not always. Negotiations between players and Jerry Jones have a way of going sideways, so we should be ready for anything. |

Jaguars | Parker Washington catches TD pass Sun Jan 4, 04:57 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars WR Parker Washington caught five passes for 87 yards and one touchdown against the Tennessee Titans in Week 18. He was targeted nine times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Washington, who missed a few snaps after being shaken up by a big hit, has emerged as the #1 producer in the Jaguars passing game. He's probably underrated in playoff fantasy football and will be a candidate for a market rate extension this offseason with his rookie contract expiring after next season. |
