Travis Kelce Offers TE1 Value in Week 18

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will look to finish out the season on a high note in a Week 18 matchup against a middle-of-the-road Las Vegas Raiders' defense. While Kelce hasn't been the fantasy superstar we've grown accustomed to for quite some time now, even at 36 years old, he's enjoying a productive […]


Tyler Warren a Fringy Streamer Against Stout Houston Defense

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren presents as a low-upside option for Week 18's road clash with their division-rival Houston Texans. For all intents and purposes, Warren has had an excellent rookie campaign, hauling in 71 passes for 791 yards and four touchdowns on 104 targets -- all second-best on the team. That said, the […]


A.J. Brown Carries Risk with Eagles' Starters Sitting

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown will be difficult to recommend for fantasy in his final outing of the regular season against the visiting Washington Commanders. Brown has had a weird year. After an ice-cold start, he's rebounded nicely over the back half of 2025. Across his last seven games, the 28-year-old has notched double-digit […]


Kyle Pitts Sr. to Rebound Against Stingy Saints' Pass D?

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. (knee) carries excellent upside in Week 18 despite facing off with a solid New Orleans Saints defense at home. The fifth-year pro had been on a tear over the last month until his dud last weekend. In the four games prior, Pitts seemed unstoppable, averaging 23.6 PPR fantasy […]


Stefon Diggs a High-Upside Option Amid Late-Season Surge

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs is a strong fantasy asset for this Sunday's home matchup with the Miami Dolphins. The 32-year-old veteran is coming off a second straight 100-yard outing and is having a nice season overall, despite eclipsing 60% of the team's snaps just twice in 16 appearances. In Week 18, he's […]


Josh Allen "Good to Go" Vs. Jets

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (foot) will be limited for Friday's team practice, and is "good to go" for Sunday's home outing with their division-rival New York Jets, per Syracuse.com's Matt Parrino. The fantasy stalwart has battled a foot issue for a few weeks now, one he picked up in Buffalo's Week 16 win over […]


Evan Hull Strictly a Handcuff Ahead of Week 18

New Orleans Saints running back Evan Hull did not see an increase in touches during the team's 34-26 victory against the Titans, instead playing well behind teammate Audric Estime in the backfield hierarchy. New Orleans hasn't had a healthy ground game in some time now, as they've dealt with injuries to Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) […]


Sterling Shepard an Afterthought in Healthy Bucs' WR Room

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard has been completely phased out of the team's game plan with their WR corps at full strength, putting him on the back burner for fantasy. The 32-year-old was a bigger part of Tampa Bay's offense earlier in the campaign, as the receiving room dealt with a myriad of […]


Darius Slayton a Distant Second Fiddle in Giants' Passing Game

Despite garnering a decent share of the team's targets weekly, New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton's output hasn't been enough to warrant consistent fantasy consideration. When teammate Malik Nabers (knee) suffered a season-ending knee injury, the seventh-year pro automatically slotted in as New York's WR2 behind Wan'Dale Robinson (rib). However, Slayton hasn't turned his […]


Konata Mumpfield an Unreliable Option in Loaded Rams' Attack

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Konata Mumpfield stepped up admirably in Week 16's loss to the Seahawks, while teammate Davante Adams (hamstring) sat with an injury, leaving fantasy managers to believe he was next in line with the veteran shelved. However, he slid back down the pecking order in the following game, signaling instability in […]


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 […]
