Brandon Aubrey Remains a Must Start Option in Week 16

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey doubled his season total for missed field goals, missing two attempts in last week's loss to the Minnesota Vikings for just the third time in his career. Aubrey attempted a career-high six field goals, missing kicks from 51 and 59 yards out. His performance from long range in Week 15 […]

Malik Davis Remains in Depth Role for Matchup Against Chargers

Dallas Cowboys running back Malik Davis saw more run in last week's loss to the Minnesota Vikings after Javonte Williams (neck) missed time in the first half. The 26-year-old ended up playing a career high 53% of the offensive snaps and handled eight carries for 21 yards and a touchdown while adding two catches (three […]

Jake Ferguson Ranks as Borderline TE1 Against Chargers

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson has cooled off in the second half of the season after ranking as the TE1 in Weeks 1 through 9. Ferguson caught just two of four targets for 16 yards in last week's loss to the Minnesota Vikings and hasn't scored in four consecutive games, his longest drought of […]

Theo Johnson Remains Low-End Option Against Vikings

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson has established a consistent floor for production as the team's TE1. Johnson has recorded at least three receptions in 11 of 14 games this season and has served as one of the Giants' most explosive playmakers. The 24-year-old leads all tight ends with three games of at least […]

Darius Slayton A Risky Option Against Vikings

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton saw his most targets of the season in Week 15's loss to the Washington Commanders, catching four of 10 targets for 53 yards. Slayton will have a tougher time seeing that kind of volume against a stingy Minnesota Vikings defense in Week 16. The Vikings have allowed the […]

Wan'Dale Robinson Offers a High Fantasy Floor for Week 16

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson projects favorably again for Week 16's matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Robinson has earned at least eight targets in six straight games with at least 10 in four of the six, totalling 40 catches for 388 yards and two touchdowns on 63 total targets during that span. The […]

Devin Singletary Tough To Trust in Lineups for Week 16

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary took a backseat to Tyrone Tracy Jr. in Week 15's loss to the Washington Commanders. Singletary recorded only six touches for 14 yards from scrimmage, his fewest touches in a game since Week 8 and his fewest yards since Week 7. The veteran has taken on a larger […]

Tyrone Tracy Jr. Offers RB2 Value in Week 16

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. posted his best fantasy performance of the season in Week 15's loss to the Washington Commanders, handling 15 rushes for 70 yards and a touchdown to go with three catches (four targets) for 27 yards and another score as a receiver. The second-year back played his highest […]

Jaxson Dart Profiles as Borderline QB1 for Tough Week 16 Matchup

New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart has put together a promising rookie campaign and has become one of the best fantasy options at the position. Dart ranks as the QB2 in fantasy points per game (22.5) since becoming the starter in Week 4, averaging 200.2 passing yards and 44.4 rushing yards per game while […]

Evan Engram Remains Afterthought in Broncos Passing Attack

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram has had a disappointing first season with the team, averaging a career low in receptions (3.2), yards (27.6), and targets (4.9) with just one touchdown in 13 games. The 31-year-old had his best performance of the season out of the team's bye in Week 13 against the Washington Commanders, […]

Stefon Diggs Becoming Tough to Trust After Recent Skid

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has recorded three of his five lowest yardage totals of the season over the past three games, collecting 26 yards or less in each contest. The 32-year-old's snaps have seemingly been managed all season, and he's never quite gotten up to a near-every-snap role, maxing out at a […]

Jordan Mason Remains Stuck as Vikings RB2

Minnesota Vikings running back Jordan Mason has taken a backseat to Aaron Jones Sr. since his return in Week 8. His fantasy value has predictably cratered since that point, averaging just 5.6 PPR points per game with zero top 12 weekly finishes at the position. The 26-year-old has only exceeded 50 rushing yards once in […]

John Metchie III Profiles as Low-Upside Option in Jets Offense

New York Jets wide receiver John Metchie III has played a full-time role since being acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles at the trade deadline. Excluding the first game with the team, where he played only eight offensive snaps, Metchie has compiled 21 catches for 188 yards and two touchdowns on 31 targets while playing 87% […]

Darnell Mooney Trending Down with Pitts' Emergence and London's Return

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney had a golden opportunity to produce as the team's WR1 with Drake London (knee) missing the past four games due to a PCL sprain in his left knee. The 28-year-old failed to deliver, recording nine catches for 140 yards and a touchdown on 18 targets, ranking as the WR45 […]

Sean Tucker Still a Key Part of the Bucs' Backfield?

Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker has logged single-digit touches in three straight games, but he's at least found the end zone in back-to-back weeks. His role has shrunk since Bucky Irving returned in Week 13. Tucker's 13 touches over the past three games rank firmly behind Rachaad White (19) and Irving (53). It's disappointing usage […]

Davante Adams Likely Won't Play in Week 17

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) likely won't play in Week 17's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons, per Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News.

Tua Tagovailoa has Likely Played his Final Down in Miami

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was benched as the team's starting quarterback on Wednesday this week and has "in all likelihood played his final down in Miami," according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero.

Puka Nacua Fined for Comments About Officiating

The NFL has fined Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua $25,000 for his comments about officiating, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Listed as Questionable for Week 16

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) is listed as questionable for Week 16's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Harrison was a limited participant every day in practice this week and should have a solid chance of returning on Sunday after missing the last two games and four of the past five games. Head […]

Brenton Strange Trending More Toward TE2 Territory After Down Week

In four games since returning from Injured Reserve, Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange has totaled 12 catches for 191 yards and a touchdown on 18 targets. Over that stretch, the 24-year-old ranks second on the team in targets, yards, and receptions, trailing only Jakobi Meyers. The third-year tight end has established himself as a […]

Treylon Burks Not an Option to Consider in Week 16

Washington Commanders wide receiver Treylon Burks hasn't recorded a reception since his spectacular one-handed touchdown catch in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. His route share dropped from a season high of 67.3% in that game to 25% in Week 14 against the Vikings, with Noah Brown back in the lineup. Brown suffered another injury […]

John Bates Shouldn't Be Considered for Fantasy in Week 16

Washington Commanders tight end John Bates stepped into a near full-time role last week against the New York Giants with Zach Ertz (knee) out for the year with a torn ACL. Bates played 42 of 61 snaps (69%) and ran a route on 13 of 26 dropbacks (50%) while recording one catch for 19 yards […]

Jaylin Lane Off the Fantasy Radar for Week 16

Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Jaylin Lane has gone catchless in three straight games after recording at least one reception in 11 consecutive games to open the season. Lane hasn't proven to be a reliable receiver yet, but he's been one of the most impactful punt returners in the league. The rookie fourth-rounder scored his […]

Chris Rodriguez Jr. Good to Go for Saturday

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. (groin) has been cleared from the injury report and is good to go for Saturday's divisional matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles. Rodriguez was a game-time decision for last week's contest against the New York Giants and was ultimately ruled out due to a groin injury. It looks like […]

Ben Sinnott Looking to be More Involved on Saturday

Washington Commanders tight end Ben Sinnott played a season high 58.6% of the snaps and ran 38.5% of the routes in the Week 15 win over the New York Giants, with Zach Ertz (knee) now out for the season with a torn ACL. The second-year tight end caught his lone target for an explosive 36-yard […]

Deebo Samuel Sr. Losing Steam Heading into Week 16

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. has been productive in his first season with the team, averaging 5.0 receptions for 46.5 receiving yards on 6.6 targets per game to go with six total touchdowns across 13 contests. The veteran started off the season as the engine of Washington's offense, clearing 80 yards from scrimmage […]

Terry McLaurin Profiles as WR2 for Saturday's Matchup Against Philadelphia

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin has scored a touchdown in two of three games since returning in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos. McLaurin hauled in a 51-yard catch-and-run touchdown in last week's win over the Giants for his longest play since Week 3 against the Raiders. The 30-year-old wideout leads the Commanders in […]

Jeremy McNichols Loses Value in Week 16

Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols surprisingly drew the start last week against the New York Giants with Chris Rodriguez Jr. (groin) sidelined and handled all the snaps on the opening drive of the game.
