Chicago Bears WR Roy Williams posted team-highs with six receptions and 81 yards in the Week 16 loss against the Green Bay Packers. The yardage total was easily a season high, besting his 62-yard output in Week 11 against the San Diego Chargers. Williams came in with just six grab for 68 yards in four games since that performance against the Chargers.
Fantasy Impact: Williams got a lot more targets with McCown at quarterback. We still wouldn't expect much from him going forward but at least this performance was encouraging.

Fantasy Impact: None of the Bears' receivers are worth using with Caleb Hanie as the starting quarterback.
