Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 21.91 | 16% (+15) | 11 | Trey Lance rushed for 89 yards against the Cardinals in his only start for the 49ers, and if Jimmy Garoppolo (thumb) is unable to play, Lance could be an excellent fantasy option in a Week 17 matchup against a Texans defense that's allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing QBs over the last five weeks. | ||||
WR | 12.18 | 53% (+8) | 76 | DeVonta Smith found the end zone last game for the Eagles and will face a suspect Washington secondary in Week 17 that's yielded the most passing scores in the NFL to date this season. | ||||
WR | 12.65 | 63% (+12) | 67 | Jaylen Waddle has at least 90 yards receiving and 10 targets in three straight outings for the Dolphins, but in Week 17, he gets a Titans defense that ranks 10th in pass DVOA this season. | ||||
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. | ||||
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 | 15.61 | 96% (+3) | 38 | Joe Mixon has 16 touchdowns this year for the Bengals, and in Week 17, he gets a Chiefs defense that ranks 21st in rush DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
TE | 5.78 | 1% (–) | 211 | Adam Trautman will hope to return to the Saints' active roster for a Week 17 matchup against a Carolina defense that has allowed six touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season. | ||||
W/R/T | 8.15 | 50% (-12) | 149 | Javonte Williams didn't gain many yards last week but still found his way into the end zone, and the Broncos' rookie should be much more productive in Week 17 against a Chargers defense that ranks in the bottom four in the league in rushing yards per game allowed and rushing TDs allowed. | ||||

BN | 4.48 | 17% (-52) | 257 | Alexander Mattison's appeal in Week 17 will be directly tied to the availability of Dalvin Cook, but if the latter sits out again while still in league protocols, the former will be the Vikings bell cow against a Packers defense that's allowing 4.8 yards per carry. | ||||
BN | 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. | ||||
BN | 16.76 | 78% (+48) | 28 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 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. | ||||
