Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 562 | Jared Goff will return for the Lions after a one-week absence and has thrown nine TD passes in his last four outings after just eight in his first nine games entering a Week 17 matchup against a Seahawks defense that's allowed multiple touchdown passes to just six quarterbacks in 15 contests. | ||||
WR | 22.31 | 98% (+2) | 37 | Stefon Diggs has scored in seven of his last 10 outings for the Bills, but in Week 17, he gets a Falcons defense that ranks 29th in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
WR | 16.77 | 67% (+1) | 93 | Brandon Aiyuk has seen six or fewer targets in four of the 49ers' last five games, so he'll likely need a big play or a touchdown to post an upside game in a Week 17 matchup against a Texans defense that's allowed the 15th-most fantasy points to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 0.00 | 5% (-1) | 1091 | Jamison Crowder has topped 45 yards just three times this season for the Jets, and in Week 17, he'll get a Buccaneers defense that ranks fourth in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
RB | 21.50 | 94% (-2) | 44 | Ezekiel Elliott scored twice last game for Dallas but will face a fairly stingy Cardinals run defense in Week 17 that's allowed just eight rushing touchdowns on the season, which is tied for first in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 13.86 | 15% (+9) | 132 | Rhamondre Stevenson has at least 75 total yards in four of his past six games for the Patriots, and in Week 17, he'll get a Jaguars defense that ranks 16th in rush DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
TE | 19.98 | 87% (+55) | 57 | Travis Kelce wasn't able to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols in time to play last week, but he should be able to make up for lost time in Week 17 as Kansas City faces a Bengals defense that ranks 30th in receiving yards allowed to tight ends this season. | ||||
W/R/T | 11.78 | 33% (+1) | 169 | Tyler Boyd has gained at least 85 yards in three of his last four games for the Bengals, and in Week 17, he gets a Chiefs defense that ranks 13th in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
W/R/T | 2.32 | 1% (–) | 342 | Royce Freeman got 12 carries last week while backing up Rex Burkhead in Houston's backfield with David Johnson (quadriceps) out, but even if Johnson remains sidelined, Freeman's paltry season average of 2.3 yards per carry will limit his Week 17 fantasy appeal against the 49ers. | ||||
W/R/T | 9.36 | 21% (-26) | 197 | Jeff Wilson has scored in each of the 49ers' last two games, but he'll need Elijah Mitchell (knee) to miss another game to see enough volume to be a strong fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against a Texans defense that's allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing RBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
Q/W/R/T | 20.12 | 5% (-1) | 56 | Trevor Lawrence has thrown just one touchdown pass in his last eight games, and getting off the schneid will be exceedingly difficult for Jacksonville's rookie quarterback in Week 17 against a Patriots defense that's allowing a league-low 17.3 points per game. | ||||
BN | 13.51 | 32% (+1) | 141 | Tony Pollard has gained at least 50 scrimmage yards in six straight games for the Cowboys but will face a Cardinals defense in Week 17 allowing just 324.3 scrimmage yards per tilt, which is eighth in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 11.07 | 7% (+5) | 178 | |||||
BN | 15.14 | 50% (+16) | 114 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 8.18 | 0% (–) | 214 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 26.64 | 1% (+1) | 28 | Andy Dalton hasn't started for the Bears since Week 13 due to the emergence of Justin Fields and hand/groin injuries, making him unlikely to lead the team in Week 17 against a Giants defense that's allowing just 6.7 yards per attempt should Fields not be healthy, with Nick Foles seemingly the preferred option. | ||||
BN | 2.82 | 0% (–) | 327 | Jauan Jennings has posted between 19 and 46 yards in four of the 49ers' last five games, and he'll be a risky fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against a Texans defense that's allowed the 15th-most fantasy points to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
IR | 0.00 | 14% (+6) | 787 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
IR | 0.00 | 16% (-1) | 1104 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
IR | 6.51 | 17% (-52) | 241 | Alexander Mattison's appeal in Week 17 will be directly tied to the availability of Dalvin Cook, but if the latter sits out again while still in league protocols, the former will be the Vikings bell cow against a Packers defense that's allowing 4.8 yards per carry. | ||||

K | 17.08 | 58% (+19) | 86 | Harrison Butker got replaced by Elliott Fry last week after landing in the league's COVID-19 protocols, but if he's able to get cleared for Kansas City's Week 17 clash with the Bengals, he should be productive against a team that's tied for 10th worst in the league in field-goal attempts allowed. | ||||
