QB | 0.00 | 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. | ||||
QB | 0.00 | 87% (-2) | 2473 | Lamar Jackson may have locked up the MVP Award with his five touchdown passes against the Dolphins last week, and with the top seed in the AFC already secured, the Ravens could elect to give their franchise QB some rest in Week 18 against a Steelers defense that ranks 23rd in passing yards allowed. | ||||
WR | 16.63 | 67% (–) | 36 | Calvin Ridley failed to break 40 yards with C.J. Beathard under center for the Jaguars last week, but QB Trevor Lawrence (shoulder) could be back for a pivotal Week 18 matchup with a Titans defense that has allowed the sixth-most yards to wide receivers (2,818). | ||||
WR | 0.00 | 42% (–) | 2222 | Jaylen Waddle has just three outings this season of 90 yards or more for the Dolphins, and if he can go in Week 18 after missing the previous game due to an ankle injury, he would take on a Bills defense that has given up 24.5 fantasy points per game to wide receivers, the seventh-best total in the league. | ||||
WR | 0.00 | 0% (–) | 1987 | |||||
WR | 16.27 | 87% (–) | 37 | Mike Evans has reached at least 70 receiving yards in four of his last six games as Tampa Bay heads into a Week 18 matchup against a Panthers defense that has allowed the third-fewest yards to opposing wide receivers this season. | ||||
RB | 33.96 | 81% (–) | 17 | James Cook has been held to 70 yards or fewer in his last two outings for the Bills, and in Week 18, he'll take on a Dolphins defense that has given up 17.7 fantasy points per game to running backs this season, which ranks in the middle of the pack. | ||||
RB | 0.00 | 54% (-1) | 2662 | Isiah Pacheco is coming off his most productive performance of the season, including his second receiving touchdown, and if Kansas City doesn't rest its starters in Week 18 after clinching its eighth straight AFC West title, he could post big numbers against a Chargers defense that ranks 30th in both catches and receiving yards allowed to RBs. | ||||
RB | 32.51 | 89% (–) | 24 | Rachaad White has gained only 81 rushing yards on 31 carries combined across his last two games, but Tampa Bay will head into an exploitable Week 18 matchup against a Carolina defense that has allowed the fourth-most rushing yards this season. | ||||
RB | 24.06 | 14% (+1) | 82 | Brian Robinson rushed for just 44 yards last game for Washington in his return from injury but will face a Dallas run defense in Week 18 allowing 116.3 yards per clash on the ground, which is 20th in the NFL. | ||||
TE | 4.86 | 89% (-2) | 207 | George Kittle could be rested in Week 18 as San Francisco has locked up the No. 1 seed in the NFC, though if he does take the field against the Rams, Kittle would be facing a defense allowing 234.6 passing yards per tilt, which is 24th in the NFL. | ||||
TE | 9.71 | 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. | ||||
BN | 12.00 | 14% (–) | 81 | Tyler Boyd saw a season-low two targets last week, and with the Bengals having nothing to play for in Week 18, the veteran slot receiver could see a limited workload against a Browns secondary that ranks second in catches and receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 7.80 | 10% (–) | 172 | Jahan Dotson failed to catch a single pass last game for Washington and will face a Dallas defense in Week 18 allowing just 190.9 yards per contest through the air, which is fifth in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 4% (–) | 1850 | Hunter Henry has topped 40 yards just once in his last 10 contests for the Patriots, and if he can go in Week 18 after missing the previous game due to a knee injury, he would face a Jets defense that has surrendered 10.4 fantasy points per game to tight ends this season, sixth-most in the league. | ||||
BN | 13.71 | 31% (–) | 65 | Jayden Reed has posted his three highest reception totals of the season in his last three contests, averaging 8.7 targets, 6.7 receptions and 56 receiving yards for the Packers during that span, but in Week 18 he gets a Bears defense that surrenders 7.2 yards per target to opposing WRs this season, the seventh-lowest average in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 4% (–) | 2347 | Listed as Inactive. | ||||
BN | 12.83 | 33% (–) | 45 | Dalton Schultz had just two catches for 19 yards in Houston QB C.J. Stroud's return from a concussion last week, but Schultz is likely to see more involvement in Week 18 against a Colts defense that has allowed the 10th-most yards to tight ends (858). | ||||
BN | 2.69 | 0% (–) | 2583 | Allen Robinson failed to get a target last week as George Pickens and Diontae Johnson dominate targets from Mason Rudolph, and even with the Steelers still alive for a wild-card berth and the Ravens potentially resting multiple players on defense, he'll be a risky option against a secondary that ranks 26th in catches allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 2% (–) | 2499 | |||||
BN | 5.41 | 2% (–) | 1935 | |||||

BN | 10.54 | 12% (–) | 120 | Josh Downs hasn't exceeded 53 yards or scored a touchdown in his last eight games for the Colts heading into a must-win Week 18 home game against a Houston defense that has allowed 10 touchdowns to wide receivers, which is second-fewest in the NFL. |

K | 69.00 | 93% (–) | 141 | Justin Tucker has scored at least eight points in six straight games, and he could see plenty of opportunities in Week 18 as the Ravens face a Steelers team that's tied for 26th in field goal attempts allowed this season. | ||||
K | 50.29 | 9% (-1) | 1759 | Chase McLaughlin failed to attempt a field goal last week for only the second time this season, giving him little momentum heading into the Buccaneers' Week 18 matchup against a vulnerable Panthers defense. | ||||
BN | 59.68 | 12% (–) | 220 | Nick Folk has made 29 of 30 field-goal attempts heading into Tennessee's Week 18 season finale against a Jaguars team that ranks in the middle of the pack defensively with 21.4 points allowed per game. |
