Fantasy | Rank | Matchup | ||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Pos | Offense | Action | Proj Pts | % Start Trend | Proj | Rating | Comment | |
QB | 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. | ||||
WR | 8.53 | 33% (+1) | 112 | Diontae Johnson saw his three-game touchdown streak end last week with Mason Rudolph under center, but he could bounce back in Week 17 as the Steelers take on a Seahawks secondary that ranks 25th in receptions allowed to wideouts. | ||||
WR | 11.93 | 89% (+4) | 67 | Brandon Aiyuk has crossed the 100-yard receiving mark in two of the last three games for San Francisco and will face a subpar Washington pass defense in Week 17 allowing 261.6 passing yards per contest, which is second-to-last in the NFL. | ||||
WR | 5.66 | 4% (+2) | 209 | Rashod Bateman still has yet to reach 40 receiving yards in a game this season, giving him little appeal in Week 17, even with the Ravens facing a Dolphins secondary that ranks in the bottom 10 in catches and TDs allowed to wideouts. | ||||
RB | 11.96 | 86% (-2) | 63 | Joe Mixon failed to top 50 scrimmage yards for the first time since Week 10 last week, but he could rebound in Week 17 as the Bengals take on a Kansas City defense that ranks 31st in yards per carry allowed to RBs. | ||||
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. | ||||
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 | 5.71 | 13% (+1) | 204 | Tyler Allgeier has earned single-digit carries in three of his last five games as the Falcons head into a Week 17 matchup against a Bears defense that has allowed the third-fewest rushing attempts this season. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 5% (–) | 594 | Christian Watson has missed three straight contests with a hamstring injury, and if he can return in Week 17 for the Packers, he'll bring his 8.0 YPT and five receiving TDs into a matchup with a Vikings defense that has allowed opposing WR groups to average 14.7 receptions per tilt, the third-highest mark in the NFL this season. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 31% (-10) | 809 | Josh Jacobs has missed the last two games due to a quad injury, but if he's able to return to the Raiders' backfield in Week 17, he'll face a Colts defense that ranks in the bottom four in rushing yards and touchdowns allowed to RBs. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 1% (–) | 647 | JuJu Smith-Schuster has topped 51 yards just once this season for the Patriots, and if he can return from an ankle injury in Week 17, he gets a Bills defense that has allowed 24.6 fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season, the ninth-lowest total in the league. | ||||
BN | 0.00 | 15% (-11) | 593 | Russell Wilson will be benched for Denver's final two games with the team falling out of the playoff hunt, so Jarrett Stidham will make his first start of the season in Week 17 against the generous Chargers secondary. | ||||
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 | 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 | 12.76 | 60% (+31) | 42 | Michael Pittman missed the Colts' previous game due to a concussion, and with his symptoms recently resurfacing, the productive receiver is far from guaranteed to gain clearance to return in Week 17 against a Raiders defense that's tied for the eighth-most touchdowns allowed to WRs (14). | ||||
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 | 11.37 | 50% (+6) | 77 | Devin Singletary has rushed for at least 112 yards in three of Houston's last six games, and he's likely to see a substantial Week 17 workload regardless of who starts under center for the Texans against a Titans defense that allowed 121 rushing yards to Singletary two weeks ago. | ||||
