Jalen McMillan Ascending Bucs' Pecking Order?

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan exploded for seven catches and 114 yards in the team's 20-17 loss to the Miami Dolphins in Week 17. The 24-year-old's target (nine) and yardage totals were team-highs, setting personal bests across the board. Coincidentally, McMillan did not see a significant rise in snap share, hovering around the […]


Chimere Dike Remains Steadily Involved

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike has carved out a steady role in the team's passing game over the back half of the season, offering PPR appeal for fantasy managers in Week 18. Dike notched his fourth straight appearance with at least five targets on Sunday. While fantasy managers may gripe about his yardage […]


Parker Washington Plays Big Role Again in Week 17

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington posted another superb performance in Week 17, notching back-to-back ten-target, 100-plus-yard outings as the team beat out their division-rival Colts 23-17. Jacksonville has been on a roll, and the Penn State alum has been a big part of it, leading his squad in receiving in consecutive games. Moreover, Washington […]


Emanuel Wilson Positioned for Elevated Role in Season Finale?

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson would be in line for a significant snap share during Week 18's road outing with the Vikings if the team decides to rest its starting unit. The 26-year-old had already begun to see the field more, operating in an increased capacity over his previous two appearances, while teammate […]


Roman Wilson an Unreliable Option in Return

Pittsburgh Steelers' wide receiver Roman Wilson shouldn't be considered for fantasy in this weekend's road matchup with the division-rival Cleveland Browns. With the Steelers' WR room in flux, the 24-year-old will re-enter the lineup in Week 17 after being a healthy scratch for the previous three games. As it stands, it's unclear in what type […]


Marquez Valdes-Scantling a Dart Throw Vs. Cleveland

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling is little more than a cheap DFS play for Sunday's outing with the hosting Cleveland Browns. The veteran has picked up considerable playing time in Pittsburgh's wide receiver corps over the last three weeks and should be in store for even more over the season's remaining games. With teammate […]


Elic Ayomanor a Volatile Fantasy Option in Week 17

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor is unlikely to make an impact for fantasy when his team lines up with the visiting New Orleans Saints this Sunday. All things considered, the Stanford product has had a decent rookie season. While it hasn't always shown up in the box score, Ayomanor had drawn targets at a […]


Marvin Harrison Jr. Expected to Be Active

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) should be available for this weekend's road meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals. For the second week in a row, Harrison could only practice in a limited fashion while he battles a nagging heel issue, and he was ultimately deemed questionable. Per Schefter, […]


Harold Fannin Jr. Scheduled to Play in Week 17

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. (groin) is expected to be a "full go" for Sunday's clash with the visiting Pittsburgh Steelers, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. The rookie picked up a groin injury during practice on Friday, causing him to log a limited session ahead of Week 17's home outing. Fortunately, it appears that […]


Isaiah Davis Can Be Avoided for Fantasy Playoffs

New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis cannot be trusted for fantasy in this weekend's home matchup with the New England Patriots, despite being more involved in the offense recently. Davis has seen his snap share rise modestly over the previous two games as the Jets transitioned to Brady Cook under center. Correlatively, the 23-year-old […]


Isaiah Williams Sees Steadily Increased Playing Time

New York Jets wide receiver Isaiah Williams has carved out a spot in 11 personnel in recent weeks, although he can't be relied upon for fantasy in Sunday's divisional clash with the New England Patriots. The Jets' WR room has been all over the place in 2025. Between the additions of Adonai Mitchell and John […]


John Metchie III Ceding Work to Williams in Passing Game

New York Jets wide receiver John Metchie III is a dodgy fantasy option for Week 17's home outing with their division-rival New England Patriots. The Alabama product began his Jets' tenure, seemingly carving out a role as, at worst, a No. 2 option in the offense's pass attack. However, with the shift to quarterback Brady […]


Adonai Mitchell a High-Variance Fantasy Option Vs. Patriots

New York Jets wide receiver Adonai Mitchell will retain decent flex value for Sunday's meeting with a formidable New England Patriots' defense at MetLife Stadium. The Texas native has primarily operated as the team's WR1 since coming over via trade with the Indianapolis Colts. In six appearances, Mitchell has racked up at least six looks […]


Breece Hall an RB3/Flex Play in Tough Spot

New York Jets running back Breece Hall lines up for another difficult outing in Week 17 when he takes on the division-rival New England Patriots at home. The fourth-year pro has boasted solid volume this season, albeit in an underwhelming Jets' attack. Despite appearing in each of New York's 15 games thus far, and absorbing […]


Brady Cook Not Worthy of Fantasy Consideration Vs. New England

New York Jets quarterback Brady Cook won't be on the fantasy radar in Week 17 when his team squares off with the New England Patriots at home. Cook has roughly three full games under his belt now and hasn't yet made a case to be considered for fantasy. Across the three appearances, the 24-year-old has […]


Emeka Egbuka Fading in Bucs' Passing Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has seemingly been phased out of the team's aerial attack in recent games, coinciding with their corps of pass-catchers getting back to health. The Ohio State product began the campaign red-hot, notching five touchdowns and two 100-plus-yard performances through the first five games of his pro career. Since […]


Audric Estime On the Outs with Hill Siphoning Touches?

New Orleans Saints running back Audric Estime did not take over as the team's lead back in Sunday's 29-6 home win over the Jets, instead ceding significant work to tight end Taysom Hill. With backfield mate Devin Neal (hamstring) on IR, and veteran Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) still dealing with injuries of his own, it […]


Devin Singletary Lagging Behind in Backfield Pecking Order

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary's workload has fallen off following the team's Week 14 bye, as backfield mate Tyrone Tracy Jr. has become the preferred rusher. Singletary had a nice run of fantasy production following the injury to teammate Cam Skattebo (ankle), posting double-digit efforts thrice ahead of New York's week off. During […]


Colston Loveland Benefitting from Injuries to Bears' WR Corps

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland has enjoyed a solid rookie season and responded admirably to increased responsibility despite his inexperience. Loveland was an afterthought in the Bears' offense during the early part of the campaign. However, following an injury to Cole Kmet that forced the veteran to miss Week 8, the 21-year-old has yet […]


Mike Gesicki in Streaming Consideration with Bengals' Offense Clicking

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki could be a sneaky stream for the remainder of the season, considering his decent involvement since quarterback Joe Burrow's return to the lineup. The Penn State alum has enjoyed a few productive fantasy outings over the previous few weeks, notching a touchdown in two of three games. Furthermore, Gesicki […]


Marvin Harrison Jr. Working Back to Full Health

Head coach Jonathan Gannon notes that Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) is steadily progressing while dealing with a lingering heel issue. The Ohio State alum has battled a heel injury for the better part of a month now. After a few weeks of no practice, Harrison returned to the field in Week […]


Josh Allen Trending Toward Playing Vs. Philly

According to head coach Sean McDermott, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (foot) will play in Sunday's home matchup with the Philadelphia Eagles. Allen suffered a foot injury in Week 16's 23-20 win over the Browns. Despite not missing any time on the field during the game because of it, the fantasy stalwart has been a […]


Mason Taylor to Miss Third Straight Game

According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor (neck) will be unavailable for Sunday's divisional clash with the visiting New England Patriots. The rookie is set to miss his third straight game after suffering a neck injury in Week 14's 48-20 loss to the Jaguars. Unfortunately for Taylor, he's yet […]


Christian Watson in Flex Consideration Despite Injury

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (shoulder, illness) will be a slightly more volatile fantasy option than usual for Saturday's home matchup with the Baltimore Ravens. Watson, like quite a few of his teammates, is dealing with multiple injury designations for their Week 17 tilt with Baltimore. In unfortunate news for the 26-year-old, a […]


Jordan Love a Risky Stream if Active

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (shoulder, concussion) carries a bit of extra risk for this Saturday's outing with the visiting Baltimore Ravens if he's active. Love could only log limited practices this week, leading up to his game with Baltimore after dealing with a few injuries suffered in last Saturday's loss to the Bears. […]


Mack Hollins Not Practicing with Abdomen Injury

New England Patriots wide receiver Mack Hollins (abdomen) failed to practice again on Thursday as the team prepares to take on the hosting New York Jets in Week 17. Hollins had one of his better games of the campaign in New England's 28-24 victory over Baltimore last Sunday, reeling in 7-of-9 targets for 69 yards. […]


Luther Burden III Retains Limited Practice Status Ahead of Week 17

Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity for the second straight day ahead of Sunday night's matchup with the hosting San Francisco 49ers. The 22-year-old was deemed inactive for Week 16's win over the Packers after failing to practice at all leading up to the outing. However, Burden stringing […]


David Njoku Logs Another DNP

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku (knee) has yet to return to practice, listed as a non-participant for the second consecutive session as the team gears up for a divisional matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers this Sunday. The veteran has missed Cleveland's previous two games as he recovers from a knee injury sustained in Week […]


Christian Watson Deemed Questionable for Week 17

Per the team, Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (shoulder, illness) is officially questionable for the team's Week 17 clash with the visiting Baltimore Ravens. Watson has dealt with a shoulder injury for a few weeks now, but was able to participate fully for Green Bay's first two practices of the week. However, the […]


Trevor Lawrence in Prime Spot Vs. Vulnerable Colts' Pass D

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has been superb in the back half of the season, and there's reason to believe he'll keep the good times rolling against the hosting Indianapolis Colts this Sunday. The Clemson product has been on a tear over the last month. Since Week 13, he's averaging a robust 270.5 passing yards […]
