QB | 22 | 83% (+3) | 2 | Dak Prescott is coming off his ninth multi-touchdown passing outing of the season for Dallas and will face a Lions defense in Week 17 that's allowed 24 passing scores in 2023, which is 25th in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 0 | 0% (–) | 1077 | |||||
RB | 9 | 60% (+3) | 112 | Javonte Williams scored his second rushing touchdown in three games last week despite an otherwise poor performance, but he could post solid numbers in Week 17 as the Broncos face a Chargers defense that's been below average against RBs on the ground and ranks 30th in catches and receiving yards allowed to the position. | ||||
TE | 10 | 96% (-1) | 109 | 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 | 9 | 81% (-4) | 156 | Breece Hall has at least 14 touches in 10 of his last 11 outings for the Jets, but in Week 17, he faces a Browns defense that has allowed 17.0 fantasy points per game to running backs in 2023, the 11th-best total in the league. | ||||
W/R | 6 | 14% (-5) | 411 | Tyler Boyd is coming off his most productive game since Week 10, but the veteran slot receiver still has a limited ceiling in Week 17 as the Bengals face a Kansas City secondary that ranks in the top eight in catches and receiving yards allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 5 | 6% (+1) | 475 | Jameson Williams has posted career-high reception totals in back-to-back weeks, catching five of his six targets last time out for the Lions, but in Week 17 he faces a Dallas defense that allows opposing WRs to catch just 57.6 percent of targets, the third-lowest mark in the NFL. | ||||
BN | 0 | 1% (–) | 856 | Kadarius Toney missed last week's game due to a hip injury, but if he's able to return in Week 17, he'll have some big-play potential as Kansas City clashes with a Bengals secondary that ranks 31st in yards per target allowed to wideouts. | ||||
BN | 0 | 0% (–) | 1305 | |||||
BN | 3 | 12% (+3) | 591 | Tyler Higbee has been held under 50 yards receiving in 10-straight games for the Rams and will face a Giants pass defense in Week 17 allowing 229.7 yards per clash through the air, which is 20th in the NFL. | ||||
IR | 5 | 6% (–) | 293 | Roschon Johnson gained 53 scrimmage yards on 12 touches last time out as D'Onta Foreman missed the game due to personal reasons, but if Foreman returns for the Bears in Week 17, Johnson could return to a tertiary role against a tough Atlanta run defense which allowed their first rushing TD of the season on Christmas Eve and has only given up 3.7 yards per carry to opposing RBs, which ranks sixth in the NFL. | ||||
IR | 18 | 71% (-2) | 7 | Justin Fields has gained 6.7 yards per attempt in the passing game and 5.6 yards per carry in the running game across the 11 games he's played this season for the Bears, and in Week 17 he faces a Falcons defense that ranks seventh in YPA (6.5) and 22nd in YPC (4.6) allowed to opposing QBs. | ||||
