Jerricho Cotchery caught one pass for nine yards in Week 16 versus Green Bay. Cotchery was targeted just two times. He's been held to two catches or fewer in four of his last five games and isn't a fantasy option as the No. 3 receiver in Pittsburgh. Cotchery has merely been a touchdown vulture in 2013.

Jerricho Cotchery (shoulder) returned to Steelers practice Thursday, getting in a full session. The world-renowned touchdown vulture is ready to go for Week 16. If you've made it this far, you're probably not using Cotchery in your FLEX or WR3 spot.

Jerricho Cotchery (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday. Cotchery missed some practice time last week with the shoulder issue but eventually played against the Bengals. He's barely on the WR4 radar.

Jerricho Cotchery had one catch for two yards in Week 15 against the Bengals. He was targeted three times in the passing game. Cotchery has been highly inconsistent this season and can't be trusted in the fantasy playoffs. He won't be more than a touchdown-dependent WR4 in Week 16.

Jerricho Cotchery is on the injury report with a shoulder contusion this week. A contusion is just a bruise, so Cotchery should be fine for Sunday's game against the Bengals. However, the Steelers could use this as an excuse to get rookie Markus Wheaton more playing time as they look toward 2014. Cotchery has been excellent this season, but he's 31 years old and in the final year of his contract.

Jerricho Cotchery caught five passes for 62 yards with a touchdown in Sunday's Week 14 loss to the Dolphins. On his touchdown, Cotchery moved in motion into the slot and just ran up the seam. Ben Roethlisberger threaded a perfect pass to his red-zone maven between three Dolphin defenders. Cotchery has just 19 catches in the last six games, but seven of them have gone for touchdowns. We wouldn't chase an unsustainable rate like that heading into a Week 15 game against the Bengals.

Jerricho Cotchery caught two passes for six yards and one touchdown in Week 13 against the Ravens. That's all he could do with his six targets. Cotchery's touchdown came with under a minute to go in the fourth quarter. He was left wide open on the play and reeled in the pass for a one-yard score. Cotchery has come back down to Earth the past two weeks and isn't worth owning in fantasy leagues.

Jerricho Cotchery was held without a catch in Week 12. He was targeted just once in the passing game. With his three-game touchdown streak officially coming to an end, Cotchery can be dropped in re-draft leagues.

Jerricho Cotchery caught three passes for 48 yards and a touchdown in Pittsburgh's Week 11 win over the Steelers. Cotchery was held off the score sheet in the first half, but started doing work after the break with the Steelers playing without Emmanuel Sanders. Cotchery now has five touchdowns over his past three games, but still isn't worth chasing as more than a touchdown-dependent WR5 in 12-14 team leagues. That will remain the case even if Sanders (foot) can't go for Week 12.

Jerricho Cotchery caught two passes for 31 yards and a touchdown in the Steelers' Week 10 win over Buffalo. Cotchery now flukily has four touchdowns over his last two games, though it's a mirage. Fantasy owners should avoid chasing Cotchery's midseason box scores when the Steelers host the Lions in Week 11. Cotchery is only worth roster consideration in 14- and 16-team fantasy leagues.
