Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 15.67 | 2% (–) | 36 | Sam Darnold didn't turn the ball over or effectively spread the ball around while heavily utilizing Ty Johnson en route to leading the Jets to their first victory of the season heading into Week 16 against the Browns, who are in the bottom 10 against the pass this season, but have allowed just one passing touchdown over their last two games. | ||||
WR | 12.52 | 89% (-1) | 60 | Adam Thielen has only five catches on seven targets in the last two weeks, managing just 50 yards in that stretch for the Vikings, making him a touchdown dependent option in Week 16 against a Saints defense that's allowed only 13 passing touchdowns through 14 outings. | ||||
WR | 10.99 | 47% (–) | 78 | Chase Claypool has not scored in any of the Steelers' last four games, but in Week 16, he gets a Colts defense that has given up an average of 199.5 yards per game to wide receivers over the last four weeks, the fourth-highest total in the league. | ||||
WR | 7.46 | 17% (–) | 181 | Christian Kirk is averaging 17 yards over Arizona's last four games, and he'll be a risky fantasy option in Week 16 against a 49ers defense that shut him out on five targets in Week 1. | ||||
RB | 13.18 | 66% (+5) | 56 | D'Andre Swift dominated backfield touches last week for the Lions and looks fully healthy, setting him up for ample volume in a Week 16 matchup against the Buccaneers on Saturday, a defense a mere 3.4 yards per carry and only one running back to top 60 yards against them to date. | ||||
RB | 15.66 | 92% (+1) | 37 | Austin Ekeler saw only four targets last week, his lowest volume since returning to action four games ago, but the Chargers' No. 1 running back is more likely to do his damage on the ground in Week 16 against a Broncos defense that ranks in the bottom five in rushing yards per game and rushing TDs allowed. | ||||
TE | 12.71 | 96% (–) | 58 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
W/R/T | 9.07 | 30% (+14) | 110 | Austin Hooper has scored in two of the Browns' last three games, and in Week 16, he gets a Jets defense that has given up 103.8 yards and 1.5 touchdowns per game to tight ends over the past four weeks, both of which are the most in the NFL. | ||||

BN | 0.00 | 15% (-12) | 651 | Tyler Boyd has been held under 45 yards in three of his past five healthy games for the Bengals and will need to clear the concussion protocol in order to play, but in Week 16, he gets a Texans defense that has allowed 19 touchdowns to receivers this year, the third-highest total in the league. | ||||
BN | 3.97 | 0% (-1) | 276 | With six catches over his past two games, Ian Thomas and the Panthers have a challenging Week 16 matchup with a Washington defense that has allowed the third-fewest yards per pass attempt (5.99) since Week 8. | ||||
BN | 12.47 | 64% (+10) | 62 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 14.76 | 82% (+5) | 41 | Josh Jacobs scored his 10th rushing touchdown of the year last week, and the Raiders' No. 1 back could be productive again in Week 16 against a Dolphins defense that ranks in the bottom 10 in yards per carry allowed. | ||||
BN | 11.82 | 49% (+36) | 68 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 0.93 | 2% (–) | 378 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 18.86 | 20% (+5) | 18 | Baker Mayfield has thrown for at least 258 yards and multiple scores in each of the Browns' last four games, and in Week 16, he gets a Jets defense that has allowed 11 passing touchdowns in that same span, the most in the NFL. | ||||
