Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 20.29 | 26% (+2) | 18 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
WR | 13.58 | 86% (-4) | 54 | Diontae Johnson has seen double-digit targets in all but four of his games this year for the Steelers, and in Week 17, he gets a Browns defense that ranks 19th in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
WR | 13.17 | 61% (+2) | 57 | Michael Pittman has caught at least six passes in seven of his last 14 games, and the Colts' No. 1 wide receiver should continue to see plenty of passes thrown his way in Week 17 against a Raiders defense that has allowed the third-fewest yards to the position. | ||||
WR | 10.56 | 25% (+1) | 87 | Courtland Sutton hasn't topped 40 receiving yards since Week 7, and the Broncos' uncertainty at quarterback makes him an even riskier play in Week 17 against a Chargers defense that's been much more vulnerable on the ground than through the air this season. | ||||
RB | 9.55 | 32% (+1) | 108 | Tony Pollard has gained at least 50 scrimmage yards in six straight games for the Cowboys but will face a Cardinals defense in Week 17 allowing just 324.3 scrimmage yards per tilt, which is eighth in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 15.74 | 85% (+57) | 35 | Austin Ekeler missed last week's game while on the COVID-19 list, but he'll be at the head of the Chargers' backfield in Week 17 against a Broncos defense he gashed for 99 scrimmage yards and a TD in their first meeting this season. | ||||
TE | 15.92 | 95% (–) | 34 | George Kittle has been a feast-or-famine fantasy option over the 49ers' last five games, but he'll be impossible to bench in a Week 17 matchup against a Texans defense that's allowed the 10th-fewest fantasy points to opposing TEs over the last five weeks. | ||||
W/R/T | 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. | ||||

BN | 0.00 | 28% (+1) | 866 | Lamar Jackson has thrown for at least 235 passing yards in all but two of his healthy games this year for the Ravens, but in Week 17, he gets a Rams defense that ranks sixth in DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
BN | 4.23 | 4% (–) | 259 | Jonnu Smith has topped 30 yards in just three games this season for the Patriots, but in Week 17, he'll get a Jaguars defense that ranks 31st in pass DVOA so far in 2021. | ||||
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 | 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. | ||||
