|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 0 | 1% (-1) | 561 | Jared Goff (COVID-19) will need to clear league protocols to return to the Lions lineup after throwing nine touchdowns over his last four games going into a Week 16 matchup against a Falcons defense that's allowed 1.8 TD passes per game and the most fantasy points to opposing QBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 6 | 1% (–) | 246 | Darius Slayton has just four catches for 36 yards in his last three games for the Giants, but could see more action due to Sterling Shepard's season-ending Achilles injury against an Eagles defense in Week 16 allowing 227.1 passing yards per contest, which is 12th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 16 | 59% (+34) | 110 | Adam Thielen (ankle) missed the Vikings' last two games, but he'll look to return in a Week 16 matchup against a Rams defense that's given up 191 receiving yards per game and the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
RB | 0 | 2% (-1) | 674 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
RB | 18 | 60% (+53) | 93 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
TE | 5 | 4% (–) | 274 | Jonnu Smith has topped 30 yards in just three games this season for the Patriots, and in Week 16, he'll get a Bills defense that ranks second in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
W/R/T | 0 | 32% (-66) | 844 | Travis Kelce found himself on the COVID-19 list after his massive 191-yard, two-TD performance against the Chargers, but if he's able to return to the Kansas City lineup in Week 16, he'll be facing a Steelers defense that's allowed only two touchdowns to tight ends all season. | ||||
BN | 0 | 0% (–) | 640 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 0 | 1% (-7) | 435 | Gabriel Davis has scored in three-straight games for the Bills, but in Week 16, he gets a Patriots defense that ranks third in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
BN | 95 | 24% (+3) | 20 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 10 | 20% (-16) | 153 | Chuba Hubbard is Carolina's lead back but has lost opportunity to both Cam Newton and Ameer Abdullah heading into a Week 16 matchup against a Tampa Bay defense that has allowed the third-fewest points to opposing running backs this season. | ||||
BN | 16 | 36% (+14) | 100 | Chase Edmonds returned to the Cardinals' lineup last week and found himself on the short end of a timeshare with James Conner, and if he continues in that role, it'll lower his ceiling in a Week 16 matchup against a Colts defense that's giving up 1.5 touchdowns per game and the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing RBs over the last five weeks. | ||||

K | 8 | 49% (+3) | 208 | Nick Folk has missed just three of his 37 field-goal attempts this year for the Patriots, but in Week 16, he'll get a Bills defense that has allowed 17.4 points per game this season, tied for the second-lowest number in the league. | ||||
BN | 0 | 0% (–) | 1130 | Ka'imi Fairbairn was busy in last week's win with three field goals and three PATs, but he's unlikely to match that volume while kicking behind the low-octane Texans offense in Week 16 despite facing a beatable Chargers defense that's allowing 26.4 points per game. | ||||
