No new player Notes
D. Johnson Hou - RB
| Ten | | | David Johnson is finishing his first season in Houston on a high note, as he's topped 130 scrimmage yards in consecutive games heading into a Week 17 visit from a Titans defense that's allowing 394.3 yards per game -- fourth-most in the league. | |
No new player Notes
D. Swift Det - RB
| Min | | | D'Andre Swift has 33 touches in the Lions last two games, and with quarterback Matthew Stafford's (ankle/ribs/thumb) availability in question, he looks poised to close his rookie season in style in a Week 17 matchup against a Vikings run defense that has been gashed of late, allowing 459 yards and 10 rushing TDs to team's lead backs over the last four weeks. | |
No new player Notes
J. Taylor Ind - RB
| Jax | | | Jonathan Taylor has scored six touchdowns in his last four games and should keep rolling in Week 17, as the Colts will be heavily favored at home against a Jaguars team that has allowed the third-most rushing yards (1,761) and fifth-most rushing touchdowns (15) to running backs this season. | |
No new player Notes
J. McKissic Was - RB
| @Phi | | | J.D. McKissic has scored in two-straight games for Washington, has garnered at least 10 targets in three of the last four contests, and will face a reeling Eagles pass defense in Week 17 that's given up an average of 391.5 passing yards over the last two contests. | |
No new player Notes
D. Henry Ten - RB
| @Hou | | | Derrick Henry leads the league with 1,777 rushing yards and is primed to add a substantial chunk to that total in Week 17, when the Titans take on a Houston defense that has allowed the most rushing yards (2,082) and rushing touchdowns (19) to running backs this season. | |
No new player Notes
D. Cook Min - RB
| @Det | | | Dalvin Cook potential seems corralled only by a potentially limited workload in the Vikings meaningless Week 17 finale, as otherwise he'll face a Lions defense that's allowed a league-high 25 rushing scores to date and one he piled up 206 yards and two scores on 22 carries earlier in the year. | |
No new player Notes
J. Dobbins Bal - RB
| @Cin | | | J.K. Dobbins has gained at least 53 yards and scored in each of his past five outings for the Ravens, and in Week 17, he gets a Bengals defense that is allowing 100.0 rushing yards per game to running backs, the 11th-highest total in the league. | |
GB | | | David Montgomery has scored six times in the last five weeks while topping 100 total yards in every outing for the Bears, setting him up for success in a Week 17 matchup against a Packers defense that's allowing 4.6 ypc and one he got for 143 yards and two scores on only 15 touches earlier in the year. | ||
No new player Notes
L. Murray NO - RB
| @Car | | | Latavius Murray and the Saints have a solid Week 17 matchup with a Panthers defense that has allowed the seventh-most yards per rush attempt (4.8) since Week 8. | |
@Car | | | Coming off a six-touchdown performance in Week 16, Alvin Kamara and the Saints have a friendly Week 17 matchup with a Panthers defense that has allowed the seventh-most yards per rush attempt (4.8) since Week 8. | ||
@Den | | | Josh Jacobs has struggled recently, but he'll look to end the year on a high note in Week 17 as the Raiders face a Broncos defense he gashed for 112 rushing yards and two TDs in their first meeting this season. | ||
Player Note
G. Edwards Bal - RB
| @Cin | | | Gus Edwards has at least 78 total yards or a touchdown in each of his past four outings for the Ravens, and in Week 17, he gets a Bengals defense that is allowing 100.0 rushing yards per game to running backs, the 11th-highest total in the league. | |
Dal | | | Wayne Gallman has been held under 30 rushing yards in each of the last two games as the Giants offense has sputtered, but will look to bounce back in Week 17 versus a Cowboys defense that's allowed the most rushing yards in the NFL this season. | ||
LV | | | Melvin Gordon has piled up 393 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns over his last four games, and with Phillip Lindsay on IR, he should head the Broncos' backfield once again in Week 17 against a Raiders defense that's given up 23 rushing TDs this season, 31st in the league. | ||
NYJ | | | James White caught three passes, which somehow accounted for one-third of the Patriots receptions heading into Week 17 against the Jets, who allowed eight receptions to the Browns backs last week. | ||
No new player Notes
M. Brown LAR - RB
| Ari | | | Malcolm Brown could be pushed into a prominent role in the Rams offense with Cam Akers (ankle) questionable and Darrell Henderson on injured reserve, potentially placing him in line for a solid fantasy performance in Week 17 against an Arizona defense that's been in the bottom half of the league in terms of fantasy production allowed to running backs over the last five weeks. | |
No new player Notes
K. Drake Ari - RB
| @LAR | | | Kenyan Drake has found the end zone in five of Arizona's last six games, and he'll look to stay on track in Week 17 against a Rams defense that he posted 58 yards and a touchdown against in Week 13. | |
No new player Notes
D. Henderson Jr. LAR - RB
| Ari | | | Darrell Henderson has been placed on injured reserve after suffering an ankle injury in the Rams' last game, and he'll miss the Week 17 matchup against the Cardinals. | |
Sea | | | Jeff Wilson posted over 200 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers' last game, and he'll have a favorable Week 17 matchup against a Seattle defense that's been in the bottom half of the league in terms of fantasy production allowed to opposing running backs. | ||
No new player Notes
E. Elliott Dal - RB
| @NYG | | | Ezekiel Elliott crossed the 100-yard rushing mark for just the second time this season last game for Dallas, and will face a Giants defense in Week 17 that's allowing 111.6 rushing yards per contest in 2020, which is 11th in the NFL. | |
Player Note
A. Jones GB - RB
| @Chi | | | Aaron Jones has averaged 7.3 ypc or better in three of the Packers last four games, but shared carries and blowout scores have limited his volume entering a difficult Week 17 matchup against a Bears defense that's allowing 4.1 ypc and 10 rushing scores to date. | |
No new player Notes
A. Gibson Was - RB
| @Phi | | | Antonio Gibson returned from injury last game for Washington with 61 rushing yards, and should be even more involved in Week 17 versus an Eagles defense surrendering 127.3 rushing yards per tilt, which is 24th in the league. | |
No new player Notes
A. Ekeler LAC - RB
| @KC | | | Austin Ekeler scored his first touchdown in five games last week, and the Chargers' No. 1 back could be poised for a big game in Week 17 against a Kansas City defense that ranks 22nd in yards per carry allowed and which might be resting key players. | |
No new player Notes
L. Perine NYJ - RB
COVID-19
| @NE | | | La'Mical Perine stepped back onto the field for the Jets and chipped in 10 touches and could be in for an even more expanded role with Frank Gore unable to play in Week 17 against the Patriots, who are in the bottom half against the run. | |
No new player Notes
N. Hines Ind - RB
| Jax | | | Nyheim Hines should find success on a per-touch basis in Week 17 against a Jaguars defense that's allowing a league-high 416.4 scrimmage yards per game, but his volume as a pass-catcher out of the backfield could be limited with the Colts likely to play from ahead. | |
No new player Notes
K. Hunt Cle - RB
| Pit | | | Kareem Hunt has scored three times in his last three outings for the Browns, but in Week 17, he gets a Steelers defense allowing just 81.3 rushing yards per game to running backs, the eighth-lowest total in the league. | |
LAC | | | Darrel Williams surprisingly split the backfield workload with Le'Veon Bell last week while Clyde Edwards-Helaire was sidelined, and he could see decent volume again in Week 17 as Kansas City hosts a Chargers defense that ranks 21st in rushing yards per game allowed and YPC allowed. | ||
@Ind | | | Dare Ogunbowale compiled a respectable 78 scrimmage yards on 17 touches last week with James Robinson sidelined by an ankle injury, but Robinson would retake the lead role in Jacksonville's backfield if he's able to return in Week 17, and finding running room against a Colts defense that's allowing only 92.9 yards per game on the ground will be difficult regardless. | ||
Player Note
C. Carson Sea - RB
| @SF | | | Chris Carson is averaging 16 touches over Seattle's last four games, and he may need similar volume to be a solid fantasy option in Week 17 when he faces the top-10 run defense of the 49ers. | |
No new player Notes
J. Conner Pit - RB
| @Cle | | | James Conner has topped 65 total yards just once over his past six outings for the Steelers, and in Week 17, he gets a Browns defense allowing just 81.5 rushing yards per game to running backs this season, the ninth-lowest total in the league. | |
NYJ | | | Sony Michel had an excellent first half last week, but the Patriots inability to move the ball left him bereft of opportunity heading into Week 17 against the Jets and their stingy run defense. | ||
@Chi | | | A.J. Dillon had a coming out party for the Packers last week, and while showing capable, a potentially closer contest in Week 17, paired with a potential return of Jamaal Williams (quad) should cool expectations, as should facing a defense allowing just 4.1 ypc and 10 rushing scores to date. | ||
Min | | | Adrian Peterson has seen only 14 carries for the Lions over the last three weeks, giving him few chances to exploit a Vikings run defense that continues to be gashed, allowing 11 rushing scores in the last six weeks. | ||
Player Note
L. Fournette TB - RB
| Atl | | | Leonard Fournette and the Tampa Bay running game has a tough Week 17 matchup with a Falcons defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest yards per rush attempt (4.0) and the 10th-fewest rushing touchdowns (four) since Week 8. | |
Player Note
R. Jones II TB - RB
| Atl | | | If he is unable to get off the COVID list, Ronald Jones and the Buccaneers running game will have a tough Week 17 matchup with a Falcons defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest yards per rush attempt (4.0) and the 10th-fewest rushing touchdowns (four) since Week 8. | |
No new player Notes
C. Edmonds Ari - RB
| @LAR | | | Chase Edmonds (hip) left Arizona's last game with an injury, but if he returns in Week 17, he'll face a Rams defense that he posted 43 yards on eight touches against when facing them in Week 13. | |
No new player Notes
Z. Moss Buf - RB
| Mia | | | Zack Moss found the end zone last week, but otherwise had a quiet day for the Bills as part of a backfield time share heading into a tough matchup with the Dolphins in Week 17, who have allowed just two rushing touchdowns to opposing backs in the last 10 games. | |
No new player Notes
J. Robinson Jax - RB
| @Ind | | | James Robinson missed last week's game due to an ankle injury, but the standout Jaguars rookie running back will hope to return for the Week 17 season finale against the second-ranked Colts run defense and add to his season totals of 1,070 rushing yards and 344 receiving yards. | |
No new player Notes
L. Bowden Jr. Mia - WR,RB
| @Buf | | | Lynn Bowden didn't make much of an impact for the Dolphins, but the question marks surrounding both DeVante Parker and Jakeem Grant could thrust him into greater responsibility in Week 17 against the Bills' top-five secondary. | |
Atl | | | If Ronald Jones is unable to get off the COVID list, Tampa Bay's Ke'Shawn Vaughn could again see plenty of playing time in a tough Week 17 matchup with a Falcons defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest yards per rush attempt (4.0) and the 10th-fewest rushing touchdowns (four) since Week 8. | ||
No new player Notes
N. Chubb Cle - RB
| Pit | | | Nick Chubb has at least 66 total yards and a touchdown in each of his past five games for the Browns, but in Week 17, he gets a Steelers defense allowing just 81.3 rushing yards per game to running backs, the eighth-lowest total in the league. | |
@Chi | | | Jamaal Williams has only 23 carries over the past five weeks, including last week's DNP due to a quad injury where A.J. Dillon shined for the Packers, presenting an uncertain Week 17 role against a Bears run defense allowing just 4.1 ypc. | ||
No new player Notes
S. Ahmed Mia - RB
| @Buf | | | Salvon Ahmed couldn't get anything going (six carries for two yards) for the Dolphins while Myles Gaskin had a career day, which likely relegates him to spot dutyheading into Week 17 against the Bills' top-half run defense. | |
No new player Notes
T. Johnson NYJ - RB
| @NE | | | Ty Johnson saw just two carries and didn't catch a pass for the Jets with the return of La'Mical Perine, but an injury to Frank Gore could open the door for Johnson in Week 17 against the Patriots, who are in the bottom half against the run this season. | |
No new player Notes
D. Harris NE - RB
| NYJ | | | Damien Harris missed another game for the Patriots with an ankle injury heading into Week 17 against the Jets, who have been tough against the run, allowing less than four yards per carry in three of their last four games. | |
Mia | | | Devin Singletary couldn't find much room to run with his share of the Bills backfield carries last week, and he now faces a Dolphins defense in Week 17 that's allowed just two rushing touchdowns to opposing backs in the last 10 games. | ||
Sea | | | Jerick McKinnon has not handled a rushing attempt in any of the 49ers' last four games, though he has caught five passes since Week 15, giving him minimal fantasy value in Week 17 against a Seattle defense that's been in the bottom half of the league in terms of fantasy production allowed to opposing running backs. | ||
LAC | | | Le'Veon Bell surprisingly split the backfield workload with Darrel Williams last week while Clyde Edwards-Helaire was sidelined, and his uncertain volume makes the veteran a risky play in Week 17 as Kansas City hosts a Chargers defense that ranks 21st in rushing yards per game allowed and YPC allowed. | ||
No new player Notes
M. Sanders Phi - RB
| Was | | | Miles Sanders has at least 80 scrimmage yards in each of the last three games for the Eagles but will face a stout Washington defense in Week 17 allowing just 310.5 scrimmage yards per tilt, which is fourth in the NFL. | |
@Cle | | | Benny Snell has seen more than eight carries just once over his past four outings for the Steelers, and in Week 17, he gets a Browns defense allowing just 81.5 rushing yards per game to running backs this season, the ninth-lowest total in the league. | ||
