Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 32.38 | 68% (–) | 31 | Dak Prescott and the Dallas Cowboys still have an outside shot at the NFC East title as well as the No. 1 overall playoff seed and will face a Commanders squad in Week 18 allowing just 195.9 passing yards per outing, though Washington has yielded 25 throwing scores this season, which is tied for 24th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 11.32 | 96% (–) | 45 | Justin Jefferson is in an obvious spot to bounce back from his worst game of the season when the Vikings face a Bears' defense in Week 18 that allows 7.5 ypa and one he posted 154 yards against previously, but playing time concerns will need to be monitored throughout the week. | ||||
WR | 11.13 | 56% (–) | 42 | Michael Pittman totaled just 75 yards in the two previous games started by quarterback Sam Ehlinger, who's expected to start under center for the Colts in Week 18 against a Houston defense that's been significantly more vulnerable on the ground than through the air. | ||||
WR | 11.11 | 73% (–) | 47 | Mike Williams has racked up a 21-353-1 line on 28 targets in four games since returning from injured reserve, but he could struggle to maintain that momentum in Week 18 as the Chargers face a Broncos defense that ranks second in receiving yards and TDs allowed to wideouts. | ||||
RB | 12.79 | 80% (–) | 27 | Aaron Jones has 90+ yards in two of three games since the Packers' bye, but has only two touchdown rushes all year entering a Week 18 matchup against a Detroit defense that's allowing 5.3 ypc, the second-highest total in the league, and 22 rushing scores to date, the third-highest mark. | ||||
RB | 9.68 | 51% (–) | 80 | AJ Dillon has scored in five straight games while seeing double-digit carries in four straight for the Packers entering a Week 18 contest against a beatable Lions front that's allowing 5.3 ypc and 22 rushing scores to date. | ||||
TE | 8.27 | 56% (–) | 53 | Dallas Goedert is averaging over 18 yards per catch since returning from injury for the Eagles and will face a Giants squad in Week 18 that held Colts tight ends to just 19 yards last weekend, but was torched by T.J. Hockenson for 109 yards and two touchdowns in the previous contest. | ||||
W/R/T | 8.31 | 15% (–) | 106 | Brandin Cooks is the clear-cut top option in Houston's passing game, but he's been held to fewer than 40 yards in both games since returning from a calf injury despite being targeted 16 times over that stretch, so Cooks will have to overcome poor quarterback play to produce in Week 18 against a Colts defense that's allowed the eighth-fewest yards to wide receivers. | ||||
BN | 5.24 | 15% (–) | 230 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 3.45 | 5% (–) | 2442 | |||||
BN | 8.90 | 18% (–) | 91 | Chris Olave has earned only nine targets combined across his last two games as the Saints head into a Week 18 matchup against a Panthers defense that has allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||

K | 7.60 | 35% (–) | 194 | Matt Gay has had multiple field-goal attempts in three of the Rams' last four games, potentially giving him a solid scoring floor in a Week 18 matchup against a Seahawks team that's allowed 6.7 kicker points per game, the 11th-fewest in the league. | ||||
