Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23.22 | 86% (–) | 17 | Kyler Murray has thrown just four touchdown passes over Arizona's last four games, and he'll look to get back on track despite a Week 18 matchup against a Seattle defense that's allowed 1.4 TD passes and the 13th-fewest fantasy points to opposing QBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
QB | 21.84 | 86% (–) | 26 | Justin Herbert has thrown multiple TDs in six of the last seven games, and he'll need to be productive again in Week 18 with a wild-card spot on the line as the Chargers take on a Raiders defense that ranks 10th in passing yards per game allowed. | ||||
QB | 20.58 | 87% (–) | 33 | Dak Prescott has accumulated seven touchdown passes in his last two games for Dallas but will face an Eagles defense in Week 18 that's surrendered just 23 passing scores in 2021, which is tied for 11th in the NFL, and it remains to be seen how much Prescott will play with the Cowboys given that they cannot maneuver much in terms of playoff seeding. | ||||
QB | 19.78 | 69% (–) | 36 | Matthew Stafford has a 5:6 TD:INT ratio over the Rams' last three games, but he should have a strong scoring floor in a Week 18 matchup against a 49ers defense that's allowed 1.6 TD passes per game and the 16th-most fantasy points to opposing QBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
QB | 18.87 | 18% (+1) | 75 | Kirk Cousins will need to clear league health protocols if he's to suit up for the Vikings in a meaningless regular season finale against a Bears' defense that's vulnerable to the pass, allowing 7.4 yards per attempt and a 28:8 TD:INT ratio, but one that held him to just 87 yards in an earlier meeting. | ||||
WR | 20.19 | 44% (+3) | 16 | Mike Evans is the last wide receiver standing in Tampa Bay, but he may be rested to prepare for the playoffs in a Week 18 matchup against Carolina. | ||||
WR | 16.91 | 85% (–) | 32 | Amari Cooper has scored in three of the last four games but could be rested by Dallas in Week 18 versus the Eagles as both squads have secured playoff berths with little chance for changing their respective seedings. | ||||
WR | 17.60 | 94% (–) | 24 | CeeDee Lamb has been held out of the end zone in six-straight games, has failed to cross the 100-yard receiving mark in eight consecutive outings, and could be rested by Dallas in Week 18 versus the Eagles as both squads have secured playoff berths with little chance for changing their respective seedings. | ||||
WR | 0.00 | 64% (-3) | 1940 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
WR | 16.36 | 61% (–) | 38 | Michael Pittman crossed the 1,000-yard threshold last week, and the Colts' top receiving option will look to finish his breakout sophomore season on a high note in Week 18 against a Jaguars defense that's allowing 27.9 points per game -- second-most in the league. | ||||
WR | 14.96 | 46% (–) | 62 | Christian Kirk has recorded at least 79 yards in three of the Cardinals' last four games, and he should continue to be a focal point of the passing attack despite a Week 18 matchup against a Seattle defense that's allowed just two receiving TDs and the eighth-fewest fantasy points to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 4.22 | 33% (–) | 2411 | Tyler Boyd has scored in three straight games for the Bengals, but in Week 18, he gets a Browns defense that ranks 11th in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
RB | 30.90 | 78% (–) | 2 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
RB | 18.89 | 93% (–) | 25 | Nick Chubb has at least 80 rushing yards in all but four of his games this year for the Browns, but in Week 18, he gets a Bengals defense that ranks 11th in rush DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
RB | 15.56 | 76% (+1) | 49 | Saquon Barkley notched his first 100-yard rushing performance since the end of the 2019 campaign for the Giants and will be relied upon heavily in Week 18 versus a fairly stingy Washington run defense allowing 105.1 rushing yards per contest, which is eighth in the league. | ||||
RB | 0.00 | 91% (-2) | 2218 | Aaron Jones hasn't topped 13 carries since Week 8, and heavy volume for the Packers in a Week 18 contest against the Lions seems unlikely with minimal to play for, but his continued involvement in the passing game has created a stable floor, having topped 70 total yards in three straight, paired with 115 and four TDs against Detroit earlier in the year. | ||||
RB | 15.60 | 58% (–) | 40 | D'Andre Swift saw only six touches in his first action in five weeks last Sunday, and with the Lions and Packers playing for only pride in Week 18, his opportunities could be few and far between again, making for volatility against a defense that allows 4.8 yards per carry. | ||||
RB | 15.60 | 40% (+1) | 50 | Elijah Mitchell returned from injury in the 49ers' last game, and he posted 130 total yards and a touchdown, and he'll likely continue to see heavy volume in a Week 18 matchup against a Rams defense that's given up 60 rushing yards and the 14th-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing RBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
RB | 15.11 | 27% (+2) | 51 | D'Onta Foreman topped 100 rushing yards for the second time in the past three games last week while finding the end zone for the third time in the last four, and as long as star Titans running back Derrick Henry (foot) doesn't make a surprise return, Foreman's primed for another strong performance in Week 18 against a Texans defense that has allowed the most rushing yards (1,942) and second most rushing touchdowns (18) to running backs. | ||||
TE | 9.99 | 39% (–) | 86 | Hunter Henry has nine touchdowns this year for the Patriots, but in Week 18, he'll get a Dolphins defense that ranks ninth in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
TE | 4.71 | 4% (–) | 218 | Jonnu Smith has topped 30 yards in just three games this season for the Patriots, but in Week 18, he'll get a Dolphins defense that ranks ninth in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
TE | 14.05 | 69% (–) | 37 | Dalton Schultz has a staggering 27 targets over the last three games but could be rested in Week 18 versus the Eagles as Dallas cannot likely alter its playoff seeding in any meaningful capacity. | ||||
TE | 3.39 | 12% (-1) | 1897 | Foster Moreau has posted modest numbers the last five games while Darren Waller has been sidelined, but if he gets another start for the Raiders in Week 18, it'll come against a Chargers defense that's allowed the most receiving yards and touchdowns in the league to tight ends this season. | ||||
TE | 9.07 | 20% (–) | 100 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
W/R/T | 16.47 | 73% (–) | 41 | Tyler Lockett was targeted just three times in Seattle's last game, as he works his way back from illness, giving him an unclear role heading into a Week 18 matchup against a Cardinals defense that's allowed the most fantasy points per game to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
W/R/T | 0.00 | 37% (-1) | 2322 | Clyde Edwards-Helaire missed last week's game due to a shoulder injury, and there's no guarantee he'll be able to return for Kansas City's Week 18 clash with a Broncos defense that's given up only nine rushing TDs all season, the third-lowest total in the league. | ||||
W/R/T | 14.69 | 76% (-1) | 60 | Cordarrelle Patterson has failed to top 100 total yards in each of his last five games heading into Atlanta's Week 18 matchup against a New Orleans defense that has allowed the fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs this season. | ||||
W/R/T | 15.30 | 46% (+1) | 54 | AJ Dillon is coming off his first double-digit carry outing in three weeks, and seems destined for a heavy workload for the Packers in Week 18, either with Aaron Jones getting limited work with the No. 1 seed clinched, or as a hammer to ice the game once a comfortable lead is built, giving him upside against a Lions team that's allowing 135.8 yards per game. | ||||
W/R/T | 11.07 | 50% (–) | 112 | Javonte Williams is coming off his worst performance since the Broncos' Week 11 bye, but the rookie will look to rebound in Week 18 against a Kansas City defense that ranks 28th in yards per carry allowed. | ||||
Q/W/R/T | 17.54 | 10% (–) | 119 | Mac Jones has been up and down over his last four games for the Patriots, and in Week 18, he'll get a Dolphins defense that ranks ninth in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
