Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23.68 | 86% (-3) | 7 | Kyler Murray has two total touchdowns over Arizona's last three games, and he could find it tough to get back on track in a Week 17 matchup against a Dallas defense that's allowed fewer than one touchdown pass per game over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 15.68 | 97% (-2) | 36 | Justin Jefferson has topped 100 yards in four of his last seven games, scoring five times for the Vikings, and should again be peppered with targets in Week 17 with Adam Thielen continuing to nurse an ankle injury, giving him a decent shot to replicate the 8-169-2 line he posted against the Packers earlier in the year. | ||||
WR | 14.80 | 65% (+21) | 43 | A.J. Brown delivered 145 yards and a touchdown last week in his return from injured reserve, and while he's locked in as the top option for Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill, Brown will have to contend with Dolphins shutdown cornerback Xavien Howard in Week 17. | ||||
WR | 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. | ||||
RB | 14.76 | 87% (–) | 44 | Josh Jacobs topped 100 rushing yards last week for the first time all season, giving him some momentum heading into the Raiders' Week 17 tilt with a Colts defense that's given up only nine rushing TDs all season, tied for fourth in the league. | ||||
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. | ||||
TE | 8.29 | 46% (-6) | 144 | Noah Fant has caught multiple passes in every game he's played this season, giving him some intriguing upside in Week 17 as the Broncos face a Chargers defense that ranks in the bottom two in the league in receiving yards and TDs allowed to tight ends. | ||||
W/R/T | 10.13 | 75% (-10) | 95 | Saquon Barkley has been held without a rushing touchdown in seven straight games played for the Giants but will face a mediocre Bears run defense in Week 17 that's allowed 14 scores on the ground this season as well as 124.1 yards per tilt on the ground, which is 25th in the league. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 590 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 781 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 5% (-1) | 1090 | 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. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 2% (–) | 572 | |||||
BN | 0.00 | 17% (-17) | 759 | Kirk Cousins saw a seven-game streak of multiple touchdowns snapped last week, but in order to keep the Vikings playoff hopes alive in Week 17, he'll need to replicate the 341 yards and three scores he priced against the Packers earlier this year, no small task against a secondary allowing just 6.6 yards per pass attempt but 27 TDs in 15 outings. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 23% (-3) | 783 | |||||
BN | 8.97 | 15% (+2) | 125 | Nyheim Hines has just five touches in the past two games as workhorse Jonathan Taylor continues to get the vast majority of opportunities in the Indianapolis backfield, but perhaps Hines will be able to make the most of his limited usage in Week 17 against a Raiders defense that has allowed 14 touchdowns to running backs on the ground and another six through the air. | ||||
BN | 4.12 | 1% (-1) | 262 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 8.95 | 45% (-5) | 126 | Mike Gesicki has not topped 50 yards or scored in any of his last six games for the Dolphins, and in Week 17, he gets a Titans defense that ranks 10th in pass DVOA this season. | ||||
