QB | 28 | 98% (–) | 4 | Patrick Mahomes has already posted his second career season with 5,000 passing yards and 40 touchdowns, and with the top seed in the AFC in Kansas City's sights, he's unlikely to slow down in Week 18 against a Raiders defense he lit up for 292 yards and four TDs in their first meeting this season. | ||||

BN | 6 | 21% (–) | 154 | Cordarrelle Patterson recorded a season-high six receptions in Atlanta's Week 17 game, and he will now head into a Week 18 matchup against a Tampa Bay defense that has allowed 26 receptions to opposing running backs across the last five weeks. | ||||
BN | 17 | 27% (–) | 124 | Brock Purdy has thrown two touchdown passes in each of his five games while leading the 49ers offense, and he could continue that trend in a Week 18 matchup against a Cardinals defense that's allowed 1.6 passing TDs per game and the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing QBs. | ||||
