QB | 719 | 1% (+1) | 113 | |||||
WR | 71 | 26% (–) | 71 | Jaxon Smith-Njigba found the end zone last game for the Seahawks and will face an Arizona defense in Week 18 that's surrendered 30 passing touchdowns this season, which is 30th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 92 | 25% (–) | 74 | Rashid Shaheed has been held under 50 receiving yards in five of his last six games as the Saints head into a Week 18 matchup against a Falcons defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest yards to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
WR | 78 | 1% (–) | 138 | |||||
RB | 112 | 86% (–) | 39 | Joe Mixon scored his fifth touchdown in five games last week while seeing another heavy workload, but with the Bengals having nothing to play for in Week 18, he could cede touches to rookie Chase Brown against a Browns defense that ranks ninth in rushing yards allowed. | ||||
RB | 0 | 85% (-1) | 2359 | Alvin Kamara could be forced to miss the Saints' Week 18 matchup against Atlanta due to an ankle injury, but even if he suits up he'll face a tough matchup as the Falcons have allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. | ||||
TE | 49 | 84% (-1) | 79 | Sam LaPorta turned a season-high 12 targets into seven catches for 84 yards last time out, but it's unclear how many snaps he'll log for the playoff-bound Lions in Week 18 against a Vikings defense that has allowed opposing TEs to gain 43.8 receiving yards per game, which is tied for the seventh-lowest average in the NFL this season. | ||||
W/T | 60 | 14% (+1) | 130 | Taysom Hill could see an increased workload in the New Orleans' offense if Alvin Kamara is sidelined by an ankle injury in a Week 18 matchup against Atlanta. | ||||
W/R/T | 41 | 2% (–) | 214 | |||||
Q/W/R/T | 524 | 19% (–) | 133 | Derek Carr has thrown for multiple touchdowns in each of his last four games as the Saints head into a Week 18 matchup against an Atlanta defense that has allowed only 20 passing touchdowns in 16 games this season. | ||||
BN | 37 | 1% (–) | 203 | Parker Washington has just three catches for 21 yards over the last two games after posting 12 catches for 100 yards and two touchdowns over the previous three, but the rookie wideout could pick his production back up in Week 18 against a Titans defense that has allowed the sixth-most yards to wide receivers, especially if the Jaguars get starting QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) back after a one-game absence. | ||||
BN | 0 | 85% (-3) | 2552 | Patrick Mahomes and Kansas City have nothing to play for in Week 18 after locking up their eighth straight AFC West title, but the team's erratic offensive performance this season could encourage Andy Reid to leave his starters on the field for a confidence-boosting matchup with a Chargers defense that ranks 31st in passing yards allowed. | ||||
BN | 107 | 62% (–) | 26 | Aaron Jones has rushed for over 100 yards in back-to-back contests for the Packers, logging 20-plus carries in each, but in Week 18 he gets a Bears defense that allows opposing RBs to average 3.6 yards per carry this season, which ranks fourth in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 0 | 13% (–) | 2299 | |||||
BN | 0 | 3% (–) | 2188 | |||||
BN | 61 | 0% (–) | 124 | Ronnie Rivers remains the backup to Kyren Williams and with a playoff spot on the line for the Rams, Rivers is unlikely to see many touches in Week 18 even against a San Francisco squad that may be resting several starters, as the Niners have locked up the No. 1 seed in the NFC. | ||||

K | 145 | 38% (–) | 187 | Cameron Dicker has kicked eight field goals in the last two games, but he's unlikely to be that busy in Week 18 as the Chargers face a Kansas City team that ranks in the top three in points per game allowed and FG attempts allowed. | ||||
BN | 155 | 89% (–) | 160 | Harrison Butker booted a season-high six field goals last week, but he may not get as many opportunities in Week 18 as Kansas City takes on a Chargers team that's far more prone to giving up touchdowns, sitting tied for 25th in points per game allowed but tied for sixth in FG attempts allowed. | ||||
