Foster Moreau TE | HOU
Texans' Foster Moreau: Shut out again in Week 9 victory
Moreau didn't log any targets or touches Sunday in a 44-22 win against the Chargers.
For the second straight week, Moreau didn't make a mark in the box score. He did technically draw a target (which he didn't catch), but it was wiped out by an accepted defensive penalty. Moreau hasn't had more than two catches in any game this season and has finished with fewer than 10 yards in every contest since Week 3, so he's not a viable fantasy play in virtually any format right now.

Dare Ogunbowale RB | HOU
Texans' Dare Ogunbowale: Log one catch in win Sunday
Ogunbowale caught his only target for a three-yard gain Sunday in a 44-22 win over the Chargers.
Ogunbowale continued to play a minor role in Houston's offense with just eight offensive snaps. He did, however, record his first touch of the campaign with a three-yard reception in the third quarter. Ogunbowale hasn't been asked to do much despite David Montgomery (groin) being sidelined since Week 5, and with Montgomery potentially getting close to a return, Ogunbowale's role on game days may soon disappear altogether.

Jonnu Smith TE | GB
Packers' Jonnu Smith: Uninvolved vs. Patriots in Week 9
Smith didn't log a target or touch in a 45-27 win over the Patriots on Sunday.
Jordan Love threw for a massive 372 yards in the victory, but Smith wasn't targeted on any of the quarterback's 29 passes. That's been par for the course this season -- Smith has drawn one or zero targets in five straight appearances. The veteran tight end has had some productive offensive seasons in his career, but it appears Smith isn't going to be a big part of the Packers' passing-game plans this year.

Jack Bech WR | LV
Raiders' Jack Bech: Makes one catch against SF in Week 9
Bech caught one of two targets for nine yards Sunday in a loss to the 49ers.
Bech logged a 34 percent offensive snap share, third-highest among Raiders wideouts behind Jalen Nailor (74 percent) and Tre Tucker (64 percent). Though he seems fairly secure in the No. 3 wideout role, Bech hasn't done much this season, producing no more than three catches or 25 yards in any of his five games to date.

DeeJay Dallas RB | MIN
Vikings' DeeJay Dallas: Logs one touch in loss Monday
Dallas caught his only target for a two-yard gain in Monday's Week 9 loss to the Bills.
Dallas notched just eight offensive snaps but also contributed 19 snaps on special teams. The veteran running back went without a carry for the fourth time over Minnesota's past five games, indicating his lack of a role in the running game. Overall this season, Dallas has been a very small part of the Vikings' offense, recording four carries for 14 yards and five catches for 36 yards (on five targets) through eight contests.

Myles Price WR | MIN
Vikings' Myles Price: Hauls in one of four targets Monday
Price caught one of his four targets for six yards in a Week 9 loss to Buffalo on Monday Night Football. He also gained 12 yards on one punt return and brought back four kickoffs for 124 yards.
Price wasn't the only Minnesota pass catcher who logged an inefficient line, as starting quarterback Carson Wentz completed just eight of 25 pass attempts. Price did make an impact in the return game by averaging 31.0 yards on his four kickoff returns. Price's role continues to be mostly centered on special teams, as he's caught just four passes for 32 yards on 11 targets through eight games.

Isaiah Williams WR | NYJ
Jets' Isaiah Williams: Not targeted versus Chiefs
Williams did not draw a target in Sunday's Week 9 loss to Kansas City. However, he rushed once for four yards, returned one punt for 18 yards and returned two kickoffs for 55 yards.
Williams didn't get a ball thrown his way despite logging a 60 percent offensive snap share. While the Illinois product continues to have a role in multiple facets of the game for New York, he's not making much of an impact as a pass catcher. Williams has one or zero catches in five straight contests and has tallied only 34 receiving yards during that span.

Isaac TeSlaa WR | DET
Lions' Isaac TeSlaa: Quiet again Sunday
TeSlaa registered one catch for nine yards on two targets in Sunday's 19-9 win over Miami.
Jared Goff threw to TeSlaa twice on Detroit's opening drive but didn't turn to him again for the remainder of the contest. The second-year wideout thus continued a very unproductive stretch, as he's logged just two catches for 19 yards on six targets over his past four games. TeSlaa is still working as Detroit's No. 3 wideout -- among Lions wide receivers, only Jameson Williams and Amon-Ra St. Brown logged more offensive snaps Sunday -- but looks just aren't coming his way. He'll try to break out of the funk next Sunday against New England.

Jalen Royals WR | KC
Chiefs' Jalen Royals: Logs two receptions in Week 9 win
Royals caught both of his targets for 18 yards Sunday in a 35-12 rout of the Jets.
Royals ranked fourth among KC wideouts in offensive snaps (21), trailing Xavier Worthy (49), Rashee Rice (38) and Andrew Armstrong (22). Royals matched his season high with two catches, and the 18 receiving yards yards were his second-most in a game this season. That speaks to the minimal production he's provided thus far, and Royals' role could be further reduced with the Chiefs' acquisition of Josh Downs on Tuesday.

Ted Hurst WR | TB
Buccaneers' Ted Hurst: Held catchless again
Hurst failed to haul in his lone target during the Buccaneers' 27-24 loss to the Bears on Sunday.
For a third consecutive game, the rookie third-rounder didn't record a catch while seeing only one target. Of more concern was the fact that Hurst was on the field for only one offensive snap in Week 9 after logging at least 25 offensive snaps in each of the first eight games of the regular season. That lack of offensive playing time coincided with the return of Emeka Egbuka, although Hurst also saw less snaps than Chris Godwin (62), Tez Johnson (52) and even David Sills (six), although Sills was cut by the Buccaneers on Tuesday. With the Buccaneers on a bye for Week 10, Hurst will look for better results in Week 11 against the Lions on Sunday, Nov. 22.
