QB | 16 | 33% (-1) | 28 | Philip Rivers had a fairly quiet performance in Week 16's loss to the Raiders, and faces a Broncos defense Sunday that leads the league in QB rating against (78.3). | ||||
QB | 0 | 0% (–) | 2710 | |||||
WR | 0 | 52% (-1) | 2193 | Alshon Jeffery could face a Lions defense which he went for 147 yards and a touchdown against earlier in the year, but missed his sixth game of the season last week and is no sure bet to suit up in Week 17. | ||||
WR | 10 | 11% (–) | 95 | Steve Johnson hasn't caught a pass since Week 12 due to a lingering groin injury, and even if he suits up he's a risky play Sunday against the Broncos' league-leading pass defense. | ||||
WR | 17 | 96% (–) | 24 | Julio Jones is on pace for 135 receptions and more than 1,800 yards on the season and will get a chance to grab his ninth 100-yard game of the season on Sunday. | ||||
RB | 0 | 0% (–) | 2341 | |||||
RB | 7 | 85% (–) | 71 | Doug Martin has developed a case of fumblitis of late, losing five this season after one in his first three seasons combined. | ||||

TE | 2 | 0% (–) | 1987 | Gresham managed one catch for seven yards for the Cardinals in a 38-8 rout of the Packers in Week 16 and remains an unattractive option as Arizona hosts the Seahawks in Week 17. | ||||
TE | 6 | 13% (–) | 122 | Eric Ebron has five targets in three straight weeks, securing four passes in two straight, but has just one touchdown in his last eight outings heading into a matchup against a Bears defense that has allowed opposing tight ends to score just four times all year. | ||||
W/T | 5 | 21% (–) | 160 | After returning to the end zone for the first time in five weeks, Kyle Rudolph faces a Packers defense which he posted a season-high 106 yards and a score against in Week 11 and one that has allowed seven touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season, though none in the last three weeks. | ||||
W/T | 0 | 0% (–) | 2229 | |||||
W/T | 12 | 90% (-1) | 58 | Mike Evans has been incredibly inconsistent all season and gets Josh Norman in Week 17, who held him to three receptions for 32 yards last time out. | ||||
W/R | 6 | 15% (+1) | 155 | Shane Vereen had a disappointing two catches in the loss to Washington after racking up eight catches and a touchdown the week prior. | ||||
W/R | 12 | 91% (–) | 12 | DeAngelo Williams turned in 153 total yards and two touchdowns on 23 touches in Week 16 against the Baltimore Ravens, his seventh game with at least 110 total yards and/or a touchdown in eight starts, and in Week 17 he has an excellent match-up against a Cleveland Browns rush defense that ranks dead last in the NFL with 135 yards allowed per game. | ||||
W/R | 1 | 0% (–) | 2629 | |||||
BN | 4 | 13% (-1) | 210 | Michael struggled to find much running room against the Rams in Week 16, finishing with just six yards on six carries, but he figures to lead the Seattle ground game in a Week 17 road tilt against the Cardinals unless Marshawn Lynch makes a surprise return for the season finale. | ||||
