Calvin Austin III Not A Dependable Replacement

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III is not a reliable fantasy option for Week 15 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Even though fellow receiver George Pickens (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday, Austin isn't a leading candidate to claim the bulk of his vacated opportunities. For proof, look no further than last Sunday when […]

Parker Washington Tough To Trust Despite Expanded Role

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington is expected to earn additional consideration for fantasy lineups in Week 15, but he's not the most dependable option after catching just two passes for 15 yards last Sunday. The 22-year-old turned heads across the league back in Week 13 with six catches, 103 yards, and one score, but […]

Sterling Shepard Questionable To Face Bolts

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard (foot) is officially questionable to play against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 15. The veteran had missed two consecutive practices before returning in a limited capacity on Friday. He has been a steady offensive contributor in his age-31 season, catching 29 passes for 287 yards and one […]

Michael Wilson Looks To Extend Impressive Stretch

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has put together an impressive stretch of performances over the last three weeks, and he'll look to remain heavily involved and productive against the New England Patriots in Week 15. In each of his last three contests, Wilson has played at least 82 percent of the snaps. During that […]

Braelon Allen Returns To Smaller Role In Week 15

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen is expected to see his workload decrease heading into Week 15 of the NFL season. Allen broke out with 11 carries for 43 rushing yards last Sunday, plus four catches for an additional 38 yards through the air. However, he had earned these additional opportunities by stepping up […]

Kayshon Boutte Lacks Appeal As Fantasy Playoffs Begin

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte is not a reliable fantasy option entering Week 15 against the Arizona Cardinals. While Boutte had three-plus catches in three of the last four games prior to the Patriots' bye, the second-year receiver's upside will be limited this week as he takes on the Cardinals. Boutte has played […]

Kendrick Bourne Gets Tough Matchup As Fantasy Playoffs Begin

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is not a reliable fantasy option entering Week 15 against the Arizona Cardinals. While Bourne combined for 11 catches, 139 yards, and one touchdown in three games prior to the Patriots' bye, the 29-year-old's upside will be limited this week as he takes on the Cardinals. Bourne has […]

DeMario Douglas Gets Favorable Matchup In Week 15

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas is back on the fantasy radar as a dependable WR3/FLEX option in Week 15 against the Arizona Cardinals. Douglas caught four passes for just 20 yards in his last game, but he averaged a solid five catches and 51.5 yards in the four weeks prior to that. The […]

Joey Slye An Option In Deeper Leagues For Week 15

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye warrants consideration in deeper fantasy leagues ahead of his Week 15 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The 28-year-old ranks 21st among kickers in fantasy points this year, but he's coming off an impressive performance in which he made three field goals, including one from beyond 50 yards. Very few […]

Patriots Defense Remains Off Fantasy Radar For Week 15

The New England Patriots defense/special teams is not a dependable option as the fantasy playoffs begin in Week 15. New England ranks 25th among D/ST units in terms of fantasy points this year, struggling even against subpar teams like the Jets and Jaguars. This week, they take on the Arizona Cardinals, who have allowed the […]

Hunter Henry A Low-End TE1 Again For Week 15

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has returned from the bye week and is a relevant fantasy option once again for Week 15 against the Arizona Cardinals. Henry has been the overall TE10 since Drake Maye took over at quarterback. The veteran has emerged as one of Maye's favorite targets, and that's a valuable […]

Drake Maye A Low-End QB1 Despite Reduced Rushing Upside

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye remains a low-end QB1 option in fantasy football ahead of Sunday's Week 15 battle with the Arizona Cardinals. Maye has nine turnovers over his last five games, but he has shown improvements as a passer and runner. In his last outing against the Colts, he completed an impressive 80 […]

Antonio Gibson A Candidate To Get More Involved In Week 15

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson has emerged as a potential RB3/FLEX option in deeper leagues ahead of his Week 15 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. While Gibson has operated in a clear backup role behind Rhamondre Stevenson for essentially the whole season, his strong performance on the other side of the Patriots' bye […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Carries Risk Into Fantasy Playoffs

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson continues to be a risky RB3 option heading into Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. While Stevenson remains the Patriots' lead back and had a 94-yard showing prior to last week's bye, a few factors should cause fantasy managers to at least consider other options for […]

Five Bold Predictions for Week 15 in the NFL: Jameis Enjoys Big Week, Rico Dowdle Dominates The Panthers

Week 15 NFL RB Power Rankings - Henry and Mixon Return, Chase Brown Reaches Pivotal Point

Kamara’s dominant start to the 2024 season has fizzled into a confusing stretch. Over his last nine games, he has just one touchdown and one top-12 fantasy finish. He continues to be one of ...

49ers Defense Fails To Record Turnover In Low-Scoring Battle

The San Francisco 49ers defense held the Los Angeles Rams to 12 points but failed to record a turnover or sack on Thursday Night Football in Week 15. The 49ers have one of the NFL's more imposing defensive fronts with Nick Bosa anchoring the unit, but while Bosa did log a whopping three quarterback hits […]

Jake Moody Responsible For All Of 49ers' Scoring On Thursday Night

San Francisco 49ers kicker Jake Moody went 2-for-2 on field goals during Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams. His conversions came from 47 and 53 yards out, giving some fantasy managers yardage-based scoring boosts. Moody's six points represented the entirety of the Niners' scoring on Thursday Night Football as they fell to the Rams, […]

Jauan Jennings Held To Two Catches Despite Heavy Target Share

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings caught just two of his nine targets against the Los Angeles Rams on Thursday, finishing Week 15 with 31 yards through the air. He managed to lead the team in targets while finishing second to George Kittle in receiving yards. Thursday's loss to the Rams was a rough […]

Ricky Pearsall Held To One Catch In Primetime Loss

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall caught just one of his four targets during Thursday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams, finishing Week 15 with 16 yards. The rookie pass-catcher has struggled to emerge as a relevant option in redraft leagues given his No. 3 role behind Deebo Samuel Sr. and Jauan Jennings. The […]

George Kittle Leads 49ers Receiving Corps In Loss

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle caught four of his seven targets for a team-best 61 yards during Thursday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Even as the 49ers struggled to mount scoring drives in this primetime divisional battle, Kittle found ways to get involved to salvage his fantasy performance. The 31-year-old now has […]

De'Vondre Campbell Tells Coach He Didn't Want To Play Thursday

San Francisco 49ers linebacker De'Vondre Campbell "said that he didn't want to play" during the second half of Thursday's loss to the Los Angeles Rams, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. In his postgame press conference, Shanahan said that he asked Campbell to enter the game as a substitute for Dre Greenlaw in the third […]

Bub Means Limited As Week 15 Prep Begins

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Bub Means (ankle) was a limited participant in practice on Wednesday. Means is currently in his 21-day practice window, which means he can practice with the team but would need to be activated from injured reserve before he can play in a game. Typically, teams are hesitant to activate players […]

Andrei Iosivas Productive Yet Again In Week 14

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas caught four of his five targets for 41 yards during Monday's Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys. The Bengals' offense is quite crowded right now with strong performances from Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Mike Gesicki, and Chase Brown, but we can't ignore a solid string of productivity from […]

Mike Gesicki Catches All Three Targets Monday Night

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki caught all three of his targets for 24 receiving yards during Monday's Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys. The veteran now has eight catches over his last two contests, but he's still just the overall TE19 in fantasy football during that span. Over the course of the full […]

Joe Burrow Highly Productive In Week 14 Win

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow completed 33 of his 44 pass attempts for 369 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception during Monday's Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He also took two sacks and lost two rushing yards. All in all, the former No. 1 pick had another very impressive performance, largely thanks to […]

Chase Brown Remains Highly Productive As Receiver On MNF

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown rushed for 58 yards on 14 carries during Monday's Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys. More importantly, he caught six of eight targets for an additional 65 receiving yards and one receiving touchdown. The 24-year-old has been quite special since taking over as the Bengals' No. 1 running […]

Tee Higgins Quiet Amidst Teammate's Big Game

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins caught two of his five targets for 23 yards during Monday's Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys. It was just the second time this season that Higgins, who appears destined for a split from the Bengals in free agency, had fewer than 12 points (PPR) in a single […]
