The Pittsburgh Steelers Defense performed well in a 24-22 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 17. Despite playing without several key starters on defense, the Steelers wound up notching four sacks in the contest. Pittsburgh will get a rematch against this same Browns team next week in the Wild Card round of the playoffs, but they should be closer to full strength and will

Buffalo Bills wide receiver John Brown returned in Week 17 after missing five straight games due to injury. He was able to finish out the regular season on a high note versus the Miami Dolphins. Brown hauled in all four of his targets for 72 yards and one touchdown in the blowout victory. He finished the season with 33 catches for 458 yards and three

Houston Texans tight end Pharaoh Brown caught five passes for 48 receiving yards and a touchdown in a 41-38 loss to Tennessee. Brown’s touchdown was his second of the year, as he finished his season strong. Still, the 26-year-old had compiled just nine catches for 115 yards for the season before taking the field for Week 17. Tight end is a position Houston needs to

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson caught three of four targets for 96 yards in a 24-22 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 17. It was shaping up as a quiet afternoon for Johnson until he ripped off a 47-yard reception on the team’s final drive of the game, setting up a JuJu Smith-Schuster touchdown three plays later. The second-year receiver saw his normally

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Curtis Samuel recorded seven receptions for 118 yards on 11 targets in Week 17. Samuel closed the 2020 season by recording over 100 yards in the last two games. Overall, the WR had a rather modest season aside from three 100-yard games. He finishes 2020 with 77 receptions, 851 yards, three receiving touchdowns, 200 rushing yards, and two rushing touchdowns. Samuel

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been putting together video game numbers during the 2020 season. That continued against the Miami Dolphins during the regular season finale in Week 17. Diggs hauled in seven of his eight targets for 76 yards in the blowout victory. Diggs sat during the second half along with most of the Bills starters because they didn’t want to risk

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins did not log a catch during Sunday’s loss to the Ravens, marking an inauspicious end to an overall terrific rookie campaign. Higgins went without a grab in Week 1 as well, but had delivered torrid production since then, finishing the year with 67 receptions for 908 yards and six touchdowns. The nature of Sunday’s defeat did not bode well

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Derek Carr threw for 371 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in the season finale against the Broncos. It was another solid season for Carr as it was his second straight season posting a passer rating over 100. However, it was a disappointing finish to the Raiders season. They were poised for a playoff berth at 6-3 until losing five of

Houston Texans wide receiver Keke Coutee finished the season strong as a fill-in starter for Will Fuller V (suspension). Including Sunday’s 90-yard effort, Coutee exceeded 50 receiving yards in four of his last five games, with two touchdowns scored in that span. The 23-year-old struggled to hold onto the football at times, as he fumbled three times, two of which were lost. However, he proved

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool caught five of 11 targets for 101 yards and a touchdown in a 24-22 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 17. Claypool hauled in a 28-yard touchdown pass in the fourth quarter, his 11th total touchdown of the season. The rookie was a popular target of Mason Rudolph, who sent several deep shots in his direction throughout the

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabriel Davis finished out the regular season with a splash during the Week 17 matchup with the Miami Dolphins. He hauled in two of his five targets for 107 yards and one touchdown in the victory. At the beginning of the season, it was unclear how much Davis would play in Buffalo. However, Davis stepped up once John Brown (calf) went

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robby Anderson recorded three receptions for 40 yards on seven targets in the Week 17 loss to New Orleans. Overall, Anderson’s first season in Charlotte was quite successful as he solidified his role as a top receiving option on the team while also recording five games with at least 94 yards. Anderson finishes 2020 with 95 receptions, 1,096 yards, and three

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Chris Conley saw his largest workload of the season during Sunday’s loss to Indianapolis, racking up seven receptions and a season-high 87 receiving yards. Without DJ Chark Jr. (shin) in the passing game, Conley saw a significant boost in the passing game and closed out his second year with the Jaguars with a strong outing. Things could get crowded for Jacksonville

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster turned in a solid effort in a 24-22 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 17. Despite catching passes from backup Mason Rudolph, Smith-Schuster caught six of eight targets for 65 yards and a touchdown. The touchdown catch came on a two-yard pass with just 1:23 left in the fourth quarter and brought the Steelers to within two points

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks caught 11 of 16 targets for 166 yards and two touchdowns in a 41-38 loss to the Titans. Cooks’ 16 targets were an amazing season-high, as were the yards and touchdowns. It was a great finish to a superb season for the 27-year-old, who racked up his fifth 1000-yard season, four of which came for different teams. Perhaps aware

Buffalo Bills running back Zack Moss was quiet during the Week 17 matchup with the Miami Dolphins. Both Moss and Devin Singletary only saw three carries each during the regular season finale. Rookie running back Antonio Williams saw a majority of the workload in a fairly meaningless game for Buffalo. Moss put together a successful rookie campaign considering he split up the carries with Singletary.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore had five receptions for 101 yards on 11 targets in the Week 17 loss to the Saints. Despite the emergence of Robby Anderson, Moore had a great 2020 campaign and this included four 100-yard outings. The WR finishes 2020 with 66 receptions, 1,193 yards, and four touchdowns and is a fine WR2 option heading into 2021. Source: ESPN.com

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner picked up 37 yards on nine carries in a 24-22 loss to the Cleveland Browns in Week 17. He was able to salvage his fantasy performance with five receptions for 25 yards in the loss. Conner’s outing goes down as another disappointing effort as he has topped 47 rushing yards just once in his past seven contests. With the

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton had three catches for 27 yards and a touchdown in a Week 17 win against the Jaguars. Hilton missed just one game all season but disappointed with less than 800 receiving yards. He tallied the lowest yards per game for his career other than his injury-riddled 2019 campaign, and he will be an unrestricted free agent after the season.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Tyler Eifert was held to just one reception for 10 yards during Sunday’s loss to the Colts. Eifert had hauled in multiple receptions in each of his past eight games. Injuries undoubtedly played a role in Eifert being slowed during his time on the field in 2020, as he finished the year with 36 catches for 349 receiving yards to go
