Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 16 | 20% (+1) | 96 | Russell Wilson ran for two touchdowns last week to supplement his modest passing numbers, and he may need to use his legs again to be productive in Week 18 as the Broncos face a Chargers defense that held him under 200 passing yards in their first meeting this season. | ||||
WR | 10 | 80% (–) | 22 | DeVonta Smith has at least 100 yards receiving or a touchdown in each of the last six games for the Eagles and will face a Giants squad in Week 18 that may be resting starters, though allowed just 21 passing scores this season, which is tied for 10th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 9 | 61% (–) | 40 | Jerry Jeudy has caught at least six passes in four straight games, posting a 28-304-3 line over that stretch on 35 targets, and the Broncos' top wideout will look to keep rolling in Week 18 against a Chargers defense that ranks fourth in receiving yards allowed to WRs this season. | ||||
RB | 15 | 99% (–) | 2 | Christian McCaffrey has found the end zone in each of the 49ers' last five games, and he'll have a good chance to make it six straight in a Week 18 matchup against a Cardinals defense that's allowed more than one touchdown per game and the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing RBs. | ||||
RB | 13 | 82% (–) | 10 | Alvin Kamara has topped 80 total yards in each of his last three games as the Saints head into a Week 18 matchup against a Panthers defense that has allowed the fewest fantasy points per game to opposing running backs in the last five weeks. | ||||
W/T | 10 | 82% (–) | 25 | DK Metcalf has posted at least 71 yards in five of Seattle's last seven games, and after having his worst game of the season last week, he'll look to bounce back in a Week 18 matchup against a Rams defense that's allowed 161 yards per game and the 15th-fewest fantasy points to opposing WRs. | ||||
BN | 5 | 42% (-1) | 198 | D'Onta Foreman has rushed for fewer than 75 yards in three of his last four games as the Panthers head into a Week 18 matchup against a Saints defense that has allowed a league average number of fantasy points per game to opposing running backs this season. | ||||
BN | 7 | 20% (+1) | 63 | Deebo Samuel (knee) put in some practice time last week for the 49ers, but his playing status has yet to be determined going into 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. | ||||
BN | 7 | 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. | ||||
BN | 6 | 3% (–) | 129 | Alexander Mattison could see additional work in Week 18 if the Vikings don't play their starters a full four quarters, which could then allow him to post larger than usual numbers against a porous Bears defense that's allowing 5.0 ypc and 29 rushing scores to date. | ||||
BN | 6 | 14% (+1) | 104 | James Cook has seen inconsistent volume this season for the Bills, and in Week 18, he'll get a New England defense that has allowed 79.9 rushing yards per game to running backs in 2022, the fourth-lowest total in the league. | ||||

K | 7 | 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. | ||||
