New Orleans Saints wide receiver Willie Snead led the team's receivers in a win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Snead caught seven of his eight targets for 122 yards on Sunday. It was his first game back since Week 12 after dealing with a calf injury. Even with Brandon Coleman active for the game, Snead was clearly a big part of the team's offense. The Saints will face the Detroit Lions in Week 15.

Fantasy impact: A week of rest made all the difference for Snead, it seems. Snead entered Week 14 with just four receptions for 50 yards through his previous two games. He’s owned in less than 50 percent of leagues as of Monday. Snead’s recent struggles make him a risky start through the fantasy playoffs, but fantasy owners can plug him in as a WR3 if needed for Week 15. He has a much better floor in PPR formats.
