Kenneth Walker III a High-Risk, High-Reward Running Back for Fantasy Playoffs

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III had an inconsistent 2025 season, but finished the year with 1,027 rushing yards on 221 carries (4.65 YPC) and five touchdowns. He also contributed 282 yards through the air on 31 receptions as well. The inconsistencies came on a week-to-week basis, as he split snaps and lost most […]


Courtland Sutton a Solid Option for Fantasy Playoff Formats

The Denver Broncos finished the 2025 season with the No. 1 seed in the AFC, going 14-3, largely thanks to an elite defense and wide receiver Courtland Sutton on the offensive side of the football. Sutton finished the 2025 regular season with 1,017 receiving yards on 74 receptions (13.74 YPC) and seven touchdowns in 17 […]


Emanuel Wilson Returning to a Complementary Role for Playoffs?

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson has had a nice 2025 season, rushing for 496 yards on 125 attempts (3.97 YPC) and scoring three touchdowns across 17 games. His involvement in the Packers offense increased this season, as he has played a complementary role to starter Josh Jacobs, and he has also filled in […]


Kendrick Bourne an Intriguing Option for Wild-Card Weekend

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Kendrick Bourne recorded 37 receptions for 551 yards (14.89 YPC) and zero touchdowns on 53 targets in 16 games in 2025. The majority of Bourne's production came in early October, when he stepped in as the team's main pass-catcher, with George Kittle, Jauan Jennings, and Ricky Pearsall (knee, ankle) all […]


Rashee Rice to be Reviewed Under League's Conduct Policy

The Kansas City Chiefs have issued a statement regarding domestic allegations against wide receiver Rashee Rice, which came up because his former girlfriend had posted pictures on social media. "The club is aware of the allegations on social media and is in communication with the National Football League. We have no further comment at this […]


A.J. Brown an Elite Wide Receiver Option for Fantasy Football Playoff Leagues

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown really took fantasy managers for a roller coaster ride in the 2025 regular season. For the first 11 weeks of the season, including the Eagles' Week 10 bye, Brown scored three or fewer fantasy points in three of those 10 games played. However, from Week 11 on, which was […]


D'Andre Swift the Bears RB to Roster in Fantasy Playoff Leagues

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift was one of fantasy football's best running back picks in the mid rounds, as he finished the 2025 season as the RB15, and rushed for 1,087 yards on 223 attempts (4.87 YPC) and added 34 receptions for 299 yards in the receiving game as well. As the season progressed, […]


Tetairoa McMillan a Strong Receiver in Fantasy Playoff Leagues

Carolina Panthers rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan had a fantastic rookie NFL season, with 1,014 receiving yards and 70 receptions on 122 targets.

McMillan's […]


Kyren Williams a Top Running Back Option for Playoff Fantasy Leagues

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams is gearing up to be a legit fantasy playoff running back option for fantasy managers playing in a playoff league.

Caleb Williams a Solid Fantasy Playoff Option for Wild-Card Weekend

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams finished the 2025 regular season as the QB5 for the year under first-year head coach Ben Johsnon. He completed 330 of 568 (58%) for 3,942 yards and a 27:7 TD: INT ratio. From a fantasy standpoint, he also contributed 383 rushing yards and three touchdowns, giving him a solid rushing […]


Parker Washington Dominates Again in Week 18 with 87 Yards and a Touchdown

Jacksonville Jaguars receiver Parker Washington continues to dazzle of late, hauling in five of his nine targets in Week 18 for 87 yards and a touchdown. That now makes it three consecutive weeks that Washington has led the Jaguars in targets, and the second time he has scored in the past three weeks. Over the […]


Jaydon Blue Leads the Backfield in Week 18, Scores First Career Touchdown

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Jaydon Blue was a non-factor for the Cowboys during the 2026 season. Still, with them missing the playoffs and having nothing to play for in Week 17, they decided to rest a handful of starters, such as running back Javonte Williams, which allowed Blue to get the start. He made […]


Giants Expected to Show Interest in Former Browns Head Coach Kevin Stefanski

Mike Garafolo from NFL Network spoke on Good Morning Football on Monday morning and reported that the New York Giants are likely to show interest in former Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski.

Colts, Daniel Jones Appear to Have "Mutual Interest" in a 2026 Reunion

Mike Chappell, a long-time sports journalist who covers the Indianapolis Colts, reported that head coach Shane Steichen said there is a "mutual desire" for Daniel Jones (Achilles) to return to Indianapolis as the starting quarterback for the Colts once healthy. Jones had himself a phenomenal 2025 season before injuring his Achilles in Week 14 against […]


Browns Fire Kevin Stefanski After Another Losing Season

Adam Schefter reported Monday morning that the Cleveland Browns have fired Kevin Stefanski, and he is now out as the Browns' head coach. After moving on from Cleveland, Stefanski is now expected to be one of the top candidates in this head coach hiring cycle in 2026. Stefanski had spent the majority of his coaching […]


Michael Carter Not a Great Fantasy Option in Split Backfield

Arizona Cardinals running back Michael Carter disappointed fantasy managers in Week 17 with only seven carries for 29 yards (4.1 YPC) in Sunday's 37-14 blowout loss to the Cincinnati Bengals. Carter also added two catches for 14 yards on four targets. In a smash match-up, Carter and the Cardinals' offense came out flat. The Cardinals […]


Emeka Egbuka's Fantasy Value is Plummeting, Hard to Trust in Week 18

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has fallen off the fantasy radar so quickly as soon as All-Pro Mike Evans returned to the lineup, but also since the return of second-year wideout Jalen McMillan out of Washington. Egbuka has seen his snap share cut almost in half, and over the past three weeks, he has only […]


Darren Waller Lays an Egg in Week 17, Falling Down the Fantasy Ranks for Week 18

Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller (groin) had a rough showing in Week 17 for fantasy managers as he saw only three targets and hauled in one of them for zero yards.

Taysom Hill No Longer Fantasy Relevant After Disappointing Week 17

New Orleans Saints tight end Taysom Hill landed on the fantasy radar in Week 17 after he concluded Week 16 with six targets (four receptions) for 36 yards, and 12 carries on the ground to go along with throwing a touchdown pass. All of this was good for 13.32 fantasy points, and Hill became a […]

Parker Washington Continuing to Dominate Target Share of Late

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington posted another fantastic performance in Week 17, notching his second straight 10-target, 100-plus-yard game as the Jaguars defeated the Indianapolis Colts 23-17. Over the past two games, Washington has hauled in 14 of his 20 targets for 260 yards and a touchdown, and over this span, he has emerged […]


Malik Davis Emerging as the Clear RB2 in Dallas

Dallas Cowboys' fourth-year running back out of Florida, Malik Davis (eye), led the backfield in running back touches in the Cowboys' Week 17 30-23 win on Christmas Day over the Washington Commanders.

Malik Willis' Value on the Rise After Week 17 Performance

Green Bay Packers quarterback Malik Willis (shoulder) has been spectacular stepping in for Jordan Love (concussion), who missed most of the Week 16 contest due to injury, and was ruled out for the Week 17 matchup. In the Week 17 matchup, where Willis played the whole game against the Baltimore Ravens, he completed 18 of […]


Lamar Jackson Expected Back at Practice, Optimistic to Play on Sunday

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (back) has returned to practice, and there is some optimism that he will play in Week 18.
