Xavier McKinney - Tallies nine stops on Thanksgiving McKinney finished Thursday's Week 13 win against the Dolphins with nine tackles (seven solo).

Impact McKinney tied his season-high mark in stops -- he previously totaled nine tackles Week 11 versus Chicago. It was a rare game without a pickoff this season for the safety, as he's now notched an interception in seven of his 12 games. McKinney has 63 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, on the season.

Quay Walker - Records 10 stops in Week 13 win Walker posted 10 tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Thursday's Thanksgiving Day victory against the Dolphins.

Impact Walker tied for the team lead in stops Thursday, with two of his tackles going for a Miami loss of yardage. One of those was a fourth-down sack of Tua Tagovailoa early in the fourth period that ended a Miami drive that had reached the Packers' one-yard line. Walker has 89 tackles (including 2.5 sacks) on the season, putting him 11 stops away from reaching 100 for the third straight season.

The linebacker's 89 percent defensive-snap share was his highest since Week 2. McDuffie is up to 71 tackles, including 0.5 sacks, through 12 contests on the campaign.

Christian Watson - Makes long catch Watson recorded two receptions on four targets for 67 yards in Thursday's 30-17 win over the Dolphins.

Impact Watson delivered a pair of big plays for the Packers, redeeming himself after a disappointing drop on a long target in Week 12. His first catch went for 21 yards just before halftime to help set up a Packers score, and he later chipped in a 46-yard reception to account for the team's second-longest play from scrimmage. Watson remains a big-play threat, but a risky fantasy option. Even after this decent performance, he's failed to reach 50 receiving yards in all but four of 11 matchups on the campaign.

Tucker Kraft - Leads Packers pass catchers Kraft recorded six receptions on seven targets for 78 yards in Thursday's 30-17 win over the Dolphins.

Impact Kraft had seen more limited involvement in the Packers' offense in recent games, but he led the team in targets, receptions and yards in Thursday's win. He made several big plays, including a pair of 17-yard receptions and another 16-yard catch. It was a spike performance for Kraft, but he entered Thursday's game having topped 35 receiving yards only once in his last six contests.

Jayden Reed - Makes most of three catches Reed recorded three receptions on six targets for 24 yards and two touchdowns in Thursday's 30-17 win over the Dolphins. He added one rush for 23 yards.

Impact Reed got the job done early in the game, recording receiving scores of three and 12 yards by halftime. The Packers played from ahead by multiple scores for most of the contest, which limited Reed to only two targets in the second half. His lack of volume isn't unusual, and he now has under 30 receiving yards in three straight games. Reed is capable of big performances, but he's reliant on either big plays or reaching the end zone, leaving him as a boom or bust fantasy option.

Josh Jacobs - Totals 117 yards Jacobs rushed the ball 19 times for 43 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 30-17 win over the Dolphins. He added four receptions on four targets for 74 yards.

Impact Jacobs was inefficient on the ground, though he punched in a one-yard touchdown late in the first quarter to pad his performance. He also chipped in as a receiver, highlighted by a long 49-yard catch and run midway through the fourth quarter. Overall, Jacobs found the end zone for the fourth time in his last five games and has topped 100 yards from scrimmage in each of those contests.

Jordan Love - Big performance against Miami Love completed 21 of 28 passes for 274 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions in Thursday's 30-17 win over the Dolphins.

Impact Love got off to a quick start, as he threw a pair of touchdowns to Jayden Reed by halftime. The Packers slowed things down in the final two quarters as they maintained a three-score lead, but Love managed to rack up yardage thanks to 49 and 46-yard completions. He also limited mistakes and negative plays, as he didn't turn the ball over and didn't take a sack. This was arguably Love's most well-rounded game of the season and should give the Green Bay offense some momentum heading into a pivotal Week 14 showdown with the Lions.
