Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 23.88 | 69% (-1) | 6 | Matthew Stafford is averaging just 220 yards and 1.5 touchdown passes over the Rams last two games, but he should be able to get back on track in a Week 17 matchup against a Ravens defense that's given up two touchdown passes per game and the 11th-most fantasy points to opposing QBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 13.19 | 73% (+5) | 56 | Tyler Lockett has recorded at least 96 yards in three of last five games he's played for the Seahawks, and he'll have potential for another upside game in a Week 17 matchup against a Lions defense that's given up the 12th-most fantasy points to opposing WRs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 10.07 | 38% (+2) | 97 | Darnell Mooney has seen a consistent target share despite the Bears' continued quarterback rotation, which should keep his floor stable despite the likely return of Allen Robinson and a less than ideal Week 17 matchup against a Giants defense that allows just 6.7 yards per pass attempt, the sixth lowest in the league. | ||||
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 | 12.24 | 34% (-2) | 72 | Michael Carter is coming off his first career 100-yard rushing day for the Jets, but in Week 17, he'll get a Buccaneers defense that ranks 11th in rush DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
RB | 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. | ||||
TE | 10.02 | 75% (-8) | 99 | Kyle Pitts has topped 60 receiving yards in each of Atlanta's last three games heading into a Week 17 matchup against a Buffalo defense that has allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends. | ||||
W/R/T | 15.98 | 87% (+55) | 33 | Travis Kelce wasn't able to clear the league's COVID-19 protocols in time to play last week, but he should be able to make up for lost time in Week 17 as Kansas City faces a Bengals defense that ranks 30th in receiving yards allowed to tight ends this season. | ||||

BN | 0.00 | 2% (–) | 588 | Kadarius Toney led the Giants in targets last game but shoddy quarterback play limited him to just 28 yards, and he is unlikely to get more help in Week 17 with either Jake Fromm or Mike Glennon under center versus a Bears defense allowing just 202.4 passing yards per contest, which is fourth in the NFL. | ||||
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 | 0.00 | 35% (-52) | 517 | James Robinson tore his Achilles last week and will miss the remainder of the season, leaving Dare Ogunbowale as the leading option in Jacksonville's backfield for the team's Week 17 road tilt in New England. | ||||
BN | 8.94 | 19% (-4) | 129 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 16.04 | 94% (+5) | 31 | Tyreek Hill is coming off his worst performance of the season, but the Kansas City speedster seems poised for a rebound in Week 17 against a Bengals defense that ranks 29th in passing yards per game allowed. | ||||
