Week 15 Half-PPR FLEX Rankings for Fantasy Football: D'Andre Swift, Chuba Hubbard, Ty Chandler, Drake London, more

Hey, RotoBallers! Week 15 is here! If you are reading this, most likely, you made the fantasy playoffs. It's time to set those winning lineups with our Week 15 fantasy football FLEX rankings.

With it being the first week of the fantasy postseason, selecting the correct FLEX could be the difference between advancing or being bounced from the fantasy playoffs. Fantasy managers will have to wait an hour before the 8:15 PM ET kickoff to determine if Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (quad) will play Thursday night versus the Chargers. If Jacobs is ruled out, Zamir White suddenly becomes a viable FLEX option. Here's where other key FLEX options, such as D'Andre Swift, Chuba Hubbard, Ty Chandler, Drake London, Brandin Cooks, Diontae Johnson, Keaton Mitchell, Breece Hall, and Amari Cooper rank this week.

Our fantasy football rankings for Week 15 are put together by Nick Mariano. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will find a summary of this week's important fantasy football injury news. There are always critical injuries to track, so check back until kickoff.

Week 15 Fantasy Football FLEX Outlooks and Rankings Analysis

A new feature has been added to our weekly fantasy football rankings article. Below, you will find our fantasy football outlooks or injury news for key options in Week 15, which gives readers a matchup preview of that player and advice on whether to start or avoid for the upcoming week. We provide outlooks for all 32 NFL teams, which can be found on our player profile pages and our fantasy football news desk.

Zamir White, RB, Las Vegas Raiders
Week 15 FLEX Half-PPR Rank: 67

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White has been uninvolved in the Raider offense for much of the season, with starter Josh Jacobs (quad) carrying an enormous workload, but that could change in Week 15. Jacobs left last week's game early with a quad injury, which has prevented him from practicing this week.

Jacobs was ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chargers. In the absence of Jacobs, White should step into the RB1 role. White will likely handle most of the carries, while Ameer Abdullah should mix in for passing downs and two-minute drills. The Chargers defense is not the easy matchup it once was for running backs. Still, given the uncertainty surrounding the Chargers offense, White could be an intriguing option for bold fantasy managers this week.

Austin Ekeler, RB, Los Angeles Chargers
Week 15 FLEX Half-PPR Rank: 9

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler has a good matchup in a Week 15 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Ekeler figures to be the focus of whatever offense the Chargers can put together, with Easton Stick starting at quarterback instead of the injured Justin Herbert (finger).

Ekeler scored a touchdown and combined for 100 total yards in the Week 14 loss and now gets a Raiders defense ranked 27th against opposing running backs. His upside is limited by what will likely be an offense that struggles to do much, but the matchup is still good enough to make Ekeler a high-end RB2.

Davante Adams, WR, Las Vegas Raiders
Week 15 FLEX Half-PPR Rank: 34

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Davante Adams had seven catches on 10 targets for 53 yards in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings. Adams saw double-digit targets for the sixth time this season. Despite making it out of the game unscathed, Adams has been on the injury report all week with an illness.

The Raiders star receiver did not participate in Wednesday's practice and is officially listed as questionable for Thursday night. The Raiders take on the Los Angeles Chargers this week. The Chargers' secondary is exploitable, and Adams should have a decent performance if he can play. Fantasy managers should keep an eye on any updates for Adams and plan in case he misses the game.

Quentin Johnston, WR, Los Angeles Chargers
Week 14 FLEX Half-PPR Rank: 140

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Quentin Johnston is a risky fantasy option in a Week 15 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Johnston had a big game last week, putting up 91 yards in an ugly Chargers loss. He seemed to be the first read on many plays from new Chargers starting quarterback Easton Stick, but the drop in talent from Justin Herbert (finger) to Stick is a skydive without a parachute. Johnston could put up WR3 numbers this week, but his upside is so limited in this offense that he's more of a mid-range WR4.

Joshua Palmer, WR, Los Angeles Chargers
Week 14 FLEX Half-PPR Rank: 121

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer (knee) was activated from Injured Reserve and will play in Week 15 against the Las Vegas Raiders. If he's at full speed, Palmer could have a more significant role than expected on Thursday Night Football with Keenan Allen (heel) forced to miss the game.

The Chargers passing game is likely to generally struggle, with Allen out and Easton Stick starting at quarterback in place of the injured Justin Herbert (finger). Still, Palmer could be the closest thing to a target hog on Thursday evening. With most leagues in the fantasy playoffs, Palmer is likely too risky to trust in starting lineups, but there's certainly some upside there if things go well for the Bolts.
