Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 14.44 | 44% (+2) | 24 | Jordan Love has averaged 263.0 passing yards across his last six contests, posting an impressive 13:1 TD:INT during that span for the Packers, and in Week 17 he faces a Vikings defense that ranks 17th in passing yards allowed per game (241.7) and has allowed a 19:13 TD:INT, which is tied for the 12th-best ratio in the NFL this season. | ||||
WR | 7.45 | 32% (+2) | 145 | Adam Thielen has rebounded from a mid-season lull in production to top 70 receiving yards in two of his last three games as the Panthers head into a Week 17 matchup against a Jaguars defense that has allowed the 12th-most receiving yards to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
WR | 7.71 | 35% (+10) | 140 | George Pickens erupted for the best performance of his career last week, and the second-year wideout could keep rolling in Week 17 as the Steelers clash with a Seahawks secondary that ranks 25th in receptions allowed to WRs. | ||||
WR | 12.08 | 61% (+26) | 58 | Nico Collins caught a touchdown from Davis Mills last week, but Houston's top receiver will likely need starting QB C.J. Stroud (concussion) to return to live up to his full potential in Week 17 against a Titans secondary that has allowed the fifth-most yards to wide receivers. | ||||
RB | 11.94 | 62% (+2) | 64 | Aaron Jones unsurprisingly torched Carolina's run defense for 127 yards on 21 carries last week, his first 100-plus yard rushing effort since the penultimate game of last season against the Vikings, and in Week 17 of this season, the Packers will once again face a Minnesota defense that has allowed opposing RBs to gain just 3.7 yards per carry, which ranks seventh in the NFL. | ||||
RB | 4.41 | 16% (–) | 250 | Alexander Mattison returned from an ankle injury to post an uninspiring rushing line of two carries for minus-1 yard after averaging 12.9 carries and 50.8 rushing yards across his previous 13 games for the Vikings this season, and in Week 17, he'll likely split carries with Ty Chandler against a Packers defense that has allowed opposing RB groups to combine for 101.4 rushing yards per contest, which ranks 27th in the NFL this season. | ||||
TE | 13.96 | 96% (-1) | 31 | Travis Kelce hasn't scored a touchdown over the last five games despite racking up 26 catches for 327 yards in that span, but he could end his scoring drought in Week 17 as Kansas City takes on a Bengals defense that ranks last in the NFL in catches and receiving yards allowed to tight ends. | ||||
W/R/T | 11.81 | 69% (-5) | 70 | Garrett Wilson has seen double-digit targets in eight of his last 12 outings for the Jets, and in Week 17, he'll get a Browns defense that has allowed 22.0 fantasy points per game to wide receivers in 2023, the third-best number in the league. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 4% (–) | 1095 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 0.97 | 3% (–) | 372 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 25% (-30) | 753 | Courtland Sutton suffered a concussion early in last week's game, putting the Broncos' top wideout at risk of missing a Week 17 clash with a Chargers secondary that ranks in the bottom four in the league in receiving yards and touchdowns allowed to WRs. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 4% (–) | 796 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 3.25 | 3% (–) | 281 | Samaje Perine has seen at least five targets in three of the last six games, and he may not need many touches to make an impact in Week 17 as the Broncos take on a Chargers defense that ranks 30th in catches and receiving yards allowed to running backs. | ||||
BN | 7.81 | 33% (+7) | 133 | Dalton Schultz has topped 50 yards in each of Houston's last two games despite the absence of starting QB C.J. Stroud (concussion), but the tight end's solid floor is accompanied by a modest Week 17 ceiling against a Titans defense that has allowed a league-low one touchdown to the position in 2023. | ||||
BN | 9.28 | 25% (+13) | 98 | Rashid Shaheed returned to a near full-time role in Week 16 and will now draw a favorable matchup as the Saints head into a Week 17 matchup against a Buccaneers defense that has allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
BN | 4.85 | 1% (–) | 239 | Treylon Burks' 25 receiving yards last week marked his second-highest total since Week 2, but at least Tennessee's oft-injured 2022 first-round draft pick is healthy heading into a Week 17 clash with a Houston defense that has allowed the 10th-most yards to wide receivers (2,517), including 62 to Burks two weeks ago. | ||||
BN | 19.84 | 88% (-3) | 6 | Patrick Mahomes has an uncharacteristically poor 9:6 TD:INT in six games since Kansas City's bye while averaging just under 250 passing yards per game, so he can't be considered an automatic start in Week 17, even against a Bengals defense that ranks 28th in passing yards allowed this season. | ||||
