Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 747 | 57% (–) | 7 | Justin Herbert set a new NFL record for passing touchdowns by a rookie last week, and he'll take aim at the completions and passing yards records in Week 17 as the Chargers face a Kansas City team that ranks fifth in QB rating against, but which is likely to be resting key players. | ||||
WR | 154 | 88% (–) | 40 | Justin Jefferson has double-digit targets in five of the Vikings last seven games, putting him in great position to close his record-breaking rookie season in style in a Week 17 spot against a Lions defense that's allowed a 100-yard receiver in five of the last six weeks, and 11 receivers to score in that stretch. | ||||
WR | 165 | 95% (–) | 25 | With 100 yards or a score in five straight games, Atlanta's Calvin Ridley has a great Week 17 matchup against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed the third-most passing touchdowns since Week 8 (18) and could be without top cornerback Carlton Davis. | ||||
WR | 190 | 84% (+1) | 43 | Mike Evans and the Buccaneers have a tricky Week 17 matchup with a Falcons defense that ranks ninth in passing touchdowns allowed (eight) and 16th in yards allowed per pass attempt (7.0) since Week 8. | ||||
RB | 156 | 96% (–) | 32 | Nick Chubb has at least 66 total yards and a touchdown in each of his past five games for the Browns, but in Week 17, he gets a Steelers defense allowing just 81.3 rushing yards per game to running backs, the eighth-lowest total in the league. | ||||
RB | 171 | 90% (–) | 27 | David Montgomery has scored six times in the last five weeks while topping 100 total yards in every outing for the Bears, setting him up for success in a Week 17 matchup against a Packers defense that's allowing 4.6 ypc and one he got for 143 yards and two scores on only 15 touches earlier in the year. | ||||
TE | 106 | 64% (-1) | 125 | Robert Tonyan saw a five-game scoring streak snapped last Sunday for the Packers and hasn't topped 39 yards in four straight, making him a touchdown dependent option in Week 17 against a Bears defense that's been incredibly vulnerable to tight ends to date, allowing 10 touchdown catches, and one Tonyan went for 5-67-1 against earlier in the year. | ||||
W/T | 150 | 55% (+1) | 52 | Brandin Cooks topped 100 receiving yards for the second time in a Texans uniform last week, and he'll work as the team's top receiving option in Week 17 against a generous Titans secondary that allowed Cooks to catch a season-high nine passes when these teams met back in Week 6. | ||||
W/R/T | 153 | 66% (–) | 50 | D'Andre Swift has 33 touches in the Lions last two games, and with quarterback Matthew Stafford's (ankle/ribs/thumb) availability in question, he looks poised to close his rookie season in style in a Week 17 matchup against a Vikings run defense that has been gashed of late, allowing 459 yards and 10 rushing TDs to team's lead backs over the last four weeks. | ||||
Q/W/R/T | 756 | 59% (+1) | 9 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 115 | 63% (–) | 64 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 65 | 97% (-2) | 229 | Travis Kelce set a new NFL record for receiving yards in a season by a tight end last week and is only 43 yards behind Stefon Diggs for the overall receiving yards title, but with Kansas City having already clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC and likely to rest key players, he may not see much work in Week 17 against a Chargers defense that's given up 10 TDs to TEs this season, tied for 27th in the league. | ||||
BN | 0 | 93% (-4) | 722 | Patrick Mahomes is expected to sit for some or all of Week 17's game against the Chargers with Kansas City having clinched the No. 1 seed in the AFC, potentially denying him an opportunity to reach 5,000 passing yards and 40 TDs on the season. | ||||
BN | 0 | 46% (-1) | 794 | Keenan Allen missed last week's game due to a hamstring injury and still sits just eight yards short of his fourth straight 1,000-yard season, giving him some personal incentive to return in Week 17 as the Chargers face a Kansas City defense that ranks 15th in passing yards per game allowed and which might be resting key players. | ||||
BN | 122 | 32% (+1) | 76 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 118 | 74% (-1) | 74 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 0 | 33% (-1) | 639 | Hunter Henry missed last week's game while on the COVID-19 list, and there's no guarantee the Chargers' tight end will return for Week 17's clash with a Kansas City defense that ranks 26th in receiving yards allowed to TEs. | ||||
BN | 31 | 2% (–) | 287 | A.J. Dillon had a coming out party for the Packers last week, and while showing capable, a potentially closer contest in Week 17, paired with a potential return of Jamaal Williams (quad) should cool expectations, as should facing a defense allowing just 4.1 ypc and 10 rushing scores to date. | ||||
