WR | 7.41 | 25% (+4) | 146 | Brandin Cooks found the end zone last game for Dallas and will face a Detroit pass defense in Week 17 that's surrendered 24 passing scores in 2023, which is 25th in the NFL. | ||||

RB | 14.00 | 89% (+2) | 30 | Saquon Barkley has scored three times in his last three games for the Giants but will face a Rams defense in Week 17 that's allowed just 11 rushing touchdowns in 2023, which is tied for 10th in the league. | ||||

BN | 0.00 | 15% (-1) | 745 | Keenan Allen has missed two straight games with a heel injury, but if he's able to return to the Chargers' lineup in Week 17, he'll be facing a Broncos secondary that ranks 27th in yards per target allowed to wideouts. | ||||

BN | 9.24 | 64% (-8) | 99 | Tee Higgins has posted a 9-201-3 line on 16 targets over the last two games, and with Ja'Marr Chase (shoulder) potentially unavailable again for the Bengals, Higgins could be productive again in Week 17 versus a Kansas City secondary that ranks in the top eight in catches and receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 12.69 | 92% (-2) | 45 | Stefon Diggs has been held under 90 yards in nine straight games for the Bills, and in Week 17, he gets a Patriots defense that has given up 28.4 fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||||
