Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 16.01 | 6% (+1) | 32 | Baker Mayfield is averaging barely more than one passing touchdown per game so far this year for the Browns, but in Week 17, he gets a Steelers defense that ranks 18th in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
WR | 10.56 | 25% (+1) | 87 | Courtland Sutton hasn't topped 40 receiving yards since Week 7, and the Broncos' uncertainty at quarterback makes him an even riskier play in Week 17 against a Chargers defense that's been much more vulnerable on the ground than through the air this season. | ||||
WR | 10.03 | 54% (+3) | 98 | Odell Beckham has scored in three of the Rams' last four games despite posting inconsistent yardage totals, but he'll be a high-floor fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against a Ravens defense that's given up the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 8.17 | 18% (+3) | 148 | Allen Robinson seems likely to play in Week 17 for the Bears for just the second time since Week 9, but having only one touchdown to date and having not topped 68 yards to date, he'll be a risky option against a Giants defense that has allowed only three opposing wideouts to top 79 yards against them since their Week 10 bye. | ||||
RB | 12.19 | 61% (+28) | 74 | Rashaad Penny has posted at least 135 rushing yards and a touchdown in two of Seattle's last three games, and he'll look to stay hot in a Week 17 matchup against a Lions defense that's given up the seventh-most fantasy points to opposing RBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
RB | 14.69 | 93% (-1) | 45 | Aaron Jones hasn't seen 15 carries since Week 8 but remains involved in the Packers' passing attack entering an inviting Week 17 matchup against a Vikings defense that allows 4.7 yards per rush and has allowed opposing lead backs to go for at least 80 total yards in five straight weeks. | ||||
TE | 0.00 | 0% (-1) | 864 | |||||
W/R/T | 10.59 | 46% (+27) | 86 | Brandin Cooks missed last week's game due to COVID-19, but if he's cleared to return in Week 17, Cooks would immediately retake the top spot on Houston's wide receiver depth chart against the 49ers and look to build on his consecutive 100-yard performances prior to his absence. | ||||

BN | 0.00 | 22% (-37) | 919 | Adam Thielen has been limited to 23 snaps over the Vikings last three games due to an ankle injury, making his availability and usage a question entering a Week 17 matchup against a Packers defense that's allowing just 6.6 yards per pass attempt, but one he's scored against three times in as many recent meetings, going for at least 82 yards twice. | ||||
BN | 15.21 | 94% (-2) | 39 | 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. | ||||
BN | 12.91 | 58% (+33) | 62 | D'Andre Swift has missed four games for the Lions, and while he appears trending towards a return as early as Week 17 against the Seahawks, he'd unlikely see workhorse volume against a defense that's allowing just 3.7 yards per carry, though have been vulnerable to backs in the passing game. | ||||
BN | 9.40 | 21% (+7) | 111 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 22.19 | 57% (+1) | 9 | Jalen Hurts tossed two touchdowns last game for the Eagles and has a juicy matchup in Week 17 versus a reeling Washington defense that's allowed the most passing touchdowns in the NFL to date this season. | ||||
