Week 15 Wide Receiver Outlooks For Fantasy Football
A.J. Brown, Philadelphia Eagles - Fantasy Football Outlook
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown will aim to rebound as the team hosts the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 15. Brown has scored only once in his last seven games, and his involvement has taken a back seat to the dominant rushing attack led by Saquon Barkley. Last week against the Panthers, Brown managed just 43 yards on four targets and was held out of the end zone.
The Steelers' defense has been somewhat forgiving through the air, allowing 218.6 passing yards per game. However, Pittsburgh's secondary has also been opportunistic, recording 15 interceptions this season.
Brown remains a turbulent WR1 due to his limited target volume but undeniable talent. Fantasy managers should cautiously expect a better performance, especially if the Eagles need to lean on their passing game.

Courtland Sutton, Denver Broncos - Fantasy Football Outlook
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton had a slow start to the season as rookie quarterback Bo Nix got acclimated to the NFL, but the veteran wideout has come on strong since a zero-target Week 7 against the New Orleans Saints and has ascended to must-start status in fantasy entering a pivotal Week 15 contest in Denver against the Indianapolis Colts.
Since Week 8, Sutton has gone on a tear, catching 42 of 57 targets for 569 yards and three touchdowns. The 29-year-old is tied as the WR12 in overall half-PPR points in 2024, but in the last five weeks, he's been the WR9. He hit the century mark in receiving yards for the third time in last week's win over the Browns and scored twice the previous week.
Indy's defense has been stingy against opposing wideouts in their last four games, allowing the fourth-fewest PPR points per game to the position, but Sutton's high target share in Denver gives him a safe floor.

Adam Thielen, Carolina Panthers - Fantasy Football Outlook
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen missed time this season because of a hamstring injury. However, since returning in late November, the veteran wideout has been productive, most recently catching nine of his 11 targets for 102 yards in the loss to the Eagles.
With 17 receptions in the last two weeks, Thielen has an excellent chance to keep it going for fantasy managers against an unreliable Cowboys defense, making him a must-start in any format.
