Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23.08 | 86% (-6) | 8 | Justin Herbert topped 300 yards last week for the eighth time this season despite his difficulty getting the ball into the end zone, a story that could repeat itself in Week 17 as the Chargers face a Broncos defense that ranks third in TD passes allowed. | ||||
WR | 14.31 | 87% (+1) | 47 | Keenan Allen was held below 50 receiving yards last week for only the third time this season, but he should be able to rebound even in a tough Week 17 matchup as the Chargers face a Broncos defense that ranks sixth in passing yards per game allowed. | ||||
WR | 20.85 | 97% (–) | 15 | Davante Adams has five touchdowns in the Packers last three games while topping 100 yards in four of his last five entering a Week 17 matchup against a Vikings defense that's allowing 7.5 yards per pass attempt, and one that he's scored seven times against in their last three meetings, topping 100 yards twice. | ||||
WR | 6.04 | 6% (–) | 206 | Laviska Shenault missed last week's game while on the reserve/COVID-19 list, and he was also battling shoulder and foot injuries prior to entering COVID protocols, but even if he's able to make his return when the Jaguars travel to New England in Week 17, Shenault's unlikely to find much room against the stingy Patriots secondary. | ||||
RB | 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. | ||||
RB | 5.65 | 25% (-6) | 216 | Myles Gaskin saw just four touches his last time out for the Dolphins, but in Week 17, he gets a Titans defense that ranks 17th in rush DVOA this season. | ||||
TE | 0.00 | 5% (–) | 843 | |||||
W/R/T | 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. | ||||
