Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
W/T | 11.49 | 18% (–) | 81 | Courtland Sutton has caught nine passes on 13 targets for 108 yards over two games since returning from a hamstring injury, but he could struggle to make an impact in Week 18 as the Broncos face a Chargers defense that held him to two catches for 14 yards in their first meeting this season. | ||||
W/T | 9.90 | 21% (–) | 1929 | Taysom Hill has scored a touchdown in consecutive games for the Saints and earned a season-high 14 carries in Week 17, and he now heads into a Week 18 matchup against a Panthers defense that has been league average against opposing running backs this season. | ||||
W/T | 9.75 | 1% (–) | 2421 | Ray-Ray McCloud is averaging one touch over the 49ers' last nine games, and his lack of volume will make him tough to trust in fantasy lineups in a Week 18 matchup against a Cardinals defense that's allowed 136 receiving yards per game and the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing WRs. | ||||
W/T | 3.95 | 10% (–) | 203 | Foster Moreau has remained involved in the Raiders offense even after the return of Darren Waller, giving him some upside in Week 18 against a Kansas City defense that ranks 28th in TDs allowed to tight ends. | ||||
W/R | 5.64 | 6% (–) | 199 | Mack Hollins has failed to top 40 receiving yards in five straight games, but if the Raiders sit their big names in a Week 18 contest with nothing at stake for them, he could see additional volume against a Kansas City defense that's given up the second-most receiving TDs in the league to wideouts. | ||||
W/R | 2.63 | 0% (–) | 2598 | |||||
W/R | 17.22 | 89% (–) | 16 | Joe Mixon hasn't scored in any of his last four outings for the Bengals, and in Week 18, he'll get a Baltimore defense that has allowed 80.4 rushing yards per game to running backs in 2022, the sixth-lowest total in the league. | ||||
W/R | 6.31 | 3% (–) | 228 | Romeo Doubs has averaged five targets in three games since returning from injury, though topping 37 yards just once, and will need that continued volume if he's to provide an uptick for the Packers in a Week 18 against a Detroit defense that's allowing a league-high 7.5 ypa. | ||||
W/R/T | 0.00 | 0% (–) | 2336 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
W/R/T | 3.06 | 0% (–) | 2448 | Damiere Byrd has one or fewer receptions in each of his last five games as the Falcons head into a Week 18 matchup against a Tampa Bay defense that has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers. | ||||
W/R/T | 8.27 | 31% (–) | 160 | DJ Chark has averaged at least 15.7 ypc in five straight and at least 27.0 ypc in tow straight for the Lions entering a Week 18 game against a Packers secondary that is allowing 7.0 ypa and he could see additional volume if Green Bay uses Jaire Alexander to shadow Amon-Ra St. Brown. | ||||
W/R/T | 5.72 | 11% (–) | 120 | Chigoziem Okonkwo has caught at least three passes in five of Tennessee's last six games, and the rookie tight end will look to stay involved in Week 17 against a Jacksonville defense that's allowed the fifth-most yards to the position (981). | ||||
W/R/T | 6.04 | 3% (–) | 186 | Isaiah Hodgins has scored in four of the last five games for the Giants but it remains to be seen how much he will play in Week 18 versus the Eagles, as the Giants may rest starters, and in any event the Eagles are surrendering the fewest passing yards per contest in the NFL this season. | ||||
Q/W/R/T | 50.18 | 42% (–) | 55 | Geno Smith is averaging 213 passing yards and 1.33 TDs over the Seahawks' last three games, and he could struggle to get back on track in a Week 18 matchup against a Rams defense that's allowed 1.3 TD passes per game and the eighth-fewest fantasy points to opposing QBs. | ||||
IR | 10.63 | 4% (–) | 125 | Greg Dortch has been targeted at least 10 times in each of the Cardinals last two games, and he could be a volume-based fantasy option in a Week 18 matchup against a 49ers defense that's allowed one touchdown per game and the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing WRs. | ||||
IR | 12.58 | 3% (–) | 221 | Khalil Herbert has only 13 touches in two games since returning from injury, suggesting he won't see enough touches in the Bears' Week 18 matchup with a Vikings defense that allows 4.5 ypc to make an impact. | ||||
IR | 6.68 | 7% (–) | 209 | Chase Edmonds has posted modest numbers the last two weeks as the backup to Latavius Murray in the Broncos backfield, but he could take his production to another level in Week 18 against a vulnerable Chargers defense that just got gashed for 133 scrimmage yards by Cam Akers. | ||||

K | 17.02 | 88% (-1) | 115 | Harrison Butker has kicked one field goal or less in four of the last five games, and the efficiency of the Kansas City offense makes him a risky option in Week 18 even against a Raiders team allowing 24.2 points a game, 25th in the league. | ||||
