Tennessee Titans rookie running back Tyjae Spears rushed six times for no gain and caught three of his four targets for 29 yards in the Week 17 blowout loss to the Houston Texans.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks has secured just 14 of his 27 targets for 210 yards and no touchdowns in nine games this year. Although he showed signs of life with 62 receiving yards in Week 15 against the Houston Texans, he remains off the fantasy radar in the Week 17 rematch. The former […]

Tyjae Spears A Shaky Flex Option Against Texans

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has played second-fiddle to Derrick Henry this season, but he is the RB35 in PPR leagues through 16 weeks of action.

DeAndre Hopkins Has Wide Range Of Outcomes In Week 17

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has caught just four of his 13 targets for 41 yards over the last two weeks. In Week 16, he was targeted just four times by Ryan Tannehill, but he could be getting Will Levis (foot) back in Week 17 against the Houston Texans. Levis has provided a boost […]

Derrick Henry Looking For Revenge Against Texans In Week 17

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry notably had a disastrous Week 15 showing against the Houston Texans, rushing 16 times for nine yards and catching four passes for one yard.

Sam LaPorta A Top-Five Tight End Option In Week 17

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta caught just three passes for 18 yards last week, but that does not change his status as a top-five fantasy tight end option.

Jameson Williams A Low-End Flex Option Against Cowboys

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has hauled in nine of his 13 targets 90 yards over the last two weeks. He has seen an uptick in targets compared to his early-season usage, but he's still a fringe flex option against the strong Dallas Cowboys defense. Dallas has allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Remains High-End WR1 Against Strong Dallas Defense

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown had a two-week rough patch to begin the month of December, but he's bounced back in a big way over the last two weeks. In Weeks 15 and 16 combined, he hauled in 19 of his 23 targets for 218 yards and two touchdowns. Needless to say, he's […]

David Montgomery A Solid RB2 In Week 17

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery has seen his fantasy ceiling take a hit with the emergence of rookie Jahmyr Gibbs, but he still has plenty of value at the tricky RB spot.

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has been a mixed bag for fantasy football over the last three weeks. He threw one touchdown in Week 14, five touchdowns in Week 15, and one touchdown in Week 16. The Lions offense is as consistent as any unit in the NFL, but they have the second-most rushing touchdowns […]

Saquon Barkley Limited During Wednesday's Walkthrough

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley (elbow) was listed as a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice to begin Week 17 prep.
