Dawson Knox Has TE1 Value Against Bengals

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (hip) is currently playing his best football of the season right now. The 26-year-old has a touchdown in each of his last three games. It's worth noting that Knox was limited in practice this week due to a hip issue. However, he is expected to suit up for the […]

Isaiah McKenzie Is Tough To Trust For Week 17

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie has struggled to make an impact over the last few weeks. In fact, McKenzie has five receptions for 45 yards over his last three games. The addition of Cole Beasley is certainly not going to help McKenzie's value going forward. That being said, McKenzie shouldn't be viewed as anything […]

Antonio Gibson Ruled Out Against Browns

Washington Commanders running back Antonio Gibson (foot, knee) missed practice all week and was officially ruled out on Friday for the Week 17 contest against the Cleveland Browns on New Year's Day. The Commanders said earlier in the week that Gibson's injury wasn't considered serious, so perhaps he'll be able to make it back for […]

Stay Away From Brandon McManus This Weekend

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus should remain well off the fantasy radar at the kicking position for a Week 17 tilt against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs. In the first meeting against KC in Week 14, McManus made four extra points but didn't attempt a single field goal. The Broncos did have a season-high 28 […]

Gabe Davis Has Shaky WR3 Value For Week 17

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis has been fairly disappointing this season, considering many expected him to have a breakout campaign. The usage has been there, as Davis has seen five or more targets in every game but two this season. Sadly, the 23-year-old has been unable to make a big impact with the ball […]

Chase Edmonds Can't Be Trusted In Week 17

Denver Broncos running back Chase Edmonds returned from Injured Reserve in Week 16 and was the team's No. 2 back behind Latavius Murray in the 51-14 drubbing at the hands of the Los Angeles Rams. He carried the ball six times for 31 yards and caught both of his targets in the passing game for […]

James Cook Has Possible Flex Value

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook put together his best rushing performance of the season versus the Chicago Bears last week. The rookie back rushed 11 times for 99 yards and a touchdown in the Week 16 victory. The Bills struggled to pass the ball, so they went run-heavy during this contest. That is expected […]

Latavius Murray Hard To Trust Against Chiefs

Denver Broncos running back Latavius Murray continues to be the team's lead back, but it doesn't mean that he's been very attractive for fantasy managers in the NFL's lowest-scoring offense. In last week's blowout loss to the Los Angeles Rams, he had a season-low-tying eight carries for just 34 yards and caught one pass for […]

Devin Singletary Has Low-End RB2 Value

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary is coming off a 106-yard performance against the Chicago Bears last week. The Bills went run-heavy in this game, which resulted in both Singletary and James Cook having solid performances. The expectation is that the Bills are going to go back to their pass-heavy ways versus the Cincinnati Bengals […]

Josh Allen Should Bounce Back Against Bengals

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is coming off a rough outing against the Chicago Bears in Week 16. Allen did finish with three scores, but also committed two turnovers and was erratic all game long. It forced the Bills to go run-heavy with their offense, but they should go back to being pass heavy in […]

Chris Streveler Unlikely To Be Active

New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh said he's unsure if quarterback Chris Streveler will be called up to the active game-day roster in Week 17 against the Seattle Seahawks, but The Athletic's Zack Rosenblatt would guess that Streveler won't be active. Streveler was called into action last Thursday night when Zach Wilson was benched […]

Tua Tagovailoa Officially Ruled Out

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has officially been ruled out for Week 17 against the New England Patriots, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. Tagovailoa suffered his second concussion of the year in the Christmas Day loss to the Green Bay Packers and has been away from the team this week, so backup Teddy […]

Ravens To Resume Negotiations With Lamar Jackson

The Baltimore Ravens will reportedly resume long-term contract negotiations with quarterback Lamar Jackson (knee) after the 2023 season. Jackson bet on himself without a long-term deal locked up heading into the 2022 season, and he's now missed a month due to a sprained PCL in his knee that he suffered in Week 13 against the […]

Eagles Not Naming A Starting QB For Week 17 Yet

Philadelphia Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni doesn't appear to be in a rush to name his starting quarterback for Week 17 against the New Orleans Saints after Jalen Hurts (shoulder) had a good practice on Thursday. Sirianni said: "We're still sorting through that" and "Jalen's health is the first thing you think of." The 24-year-old […]

Michael Badgley A Strong Streamer Versus Bears

Detroit Lions kicker Michael Badgley was the No. 2 overall fantasy kicker from Week 10 to Week 15, so he's now very much on the fantasy radar. Against the Chicago Bears, Detroit should score a ton of points, and Badgley should get his fair share of kicking opportunities. He has top-five upside for the fantasy […]

Lions Defense Not A Viable Week 17 Option

The Detroit Lions fantasy defense/special teams unit was a popular streaming candidate in Week 16, but they allowed the Carolina Panthers to pass for 250 yards, rush for 320 yards and score 37 points. That said, the Lions' defense is an easy stay-away against the Chicago Bears. Chicago has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to […]

Denzel Mims Cleared, Will Play In Week 17

New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims (concussion) cleared concussion protocols and will play in Sunday's matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The 25-year-old was a full participant in practice this week and will return Sunday after missing Week 16 due to a concussion. Mims has caught 11 passes for 186 yards over eight games in […]

Russell Wilson Has Some Upside In Week 17

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson returned from a one-game absence due to a concussion in Week 16 on Christmas Day and posted yet another dud, going 15-for-27 for 214 yards, one touchdown and a season-high three interceptions in a 51-14 blowout loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Despite the poor performance and downright ugly season […]

DJ Chark Has Wide Range Of Outcomes

Detroit Lions wide receiver DJ Chark remains a boom-or-bust play against the Chicago Bears in Week 17, as he isn't a lock for a ton of targets or volume, but he's a splash-play receiver with touchdown upside. If this game stays competitive, he should be able to deliver, but he's not bust-proof like fellow wideout […]

Josh Reynolds Returns To Practice Thursday

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (illness) practiced in full on Thursday. He was held out from Wednesday's session due to an illness but returned with no limits on Thursday. The 27-year-old is Detroit's WR3 behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and D.J. Chark. He has caught 10 passes for 101 yards and a touchdown over the […]

Amon-Ra St. Brown Has WR1 Outlook Against Bears

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has seen at least 10 targets in four of his last five games, so he remains a must-start with a WR1 outlook, even though the Chicago Bears are a strong defense against fantasy wideouts on paper. Ultimately, Chicago's stats against wideouts are inflated since teams have easily run […]

Brandin Cooks Absent From Thursday's Practice

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks (personal) did not participate in Thursday's practice. According to the injury report, the veteran wideout missed Thursday's session for (not injury-related) personal reasons. Cooks is expected to return to practice Friday. He returned to action in Week 16 against the Titans after missing the last three weeks due to […]

D'Andre Swift Has PPR Upside Against Bears

Detroit Lions running back D'Andre Swift has been far from a safe fantasy option this season, but since he continues to draw a ton of targets, he's worth starting in PPR leagues. Swift has seen 6.4 targets per game over his last five contests, so even if he can't score a touchdown or do much […]

Jamaal Williams Remains A Touchdown-Or-Bust Option

Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams has not finished inside the top-30 weekly fantasy running back since Week 11, so he's become a risky fantasy option who is dependent on scoring a touchdown to pay off. Williams has been splitting more of his touches with D'Andre Swift and Justin Jackson, and since he has no […]

Demarcus Robinson Misses Thursday's Practice

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (groin) didn't practice Thursday. He received the day off to rest a groin injury. The 28-year-old will try to practice on Friday to increase his chances of suiting up against the Steelers. With all the injuries to Baltimore's wide receiver core, Robinson has been the Ravens' WR1 over the […]

Jared Goff A Must-Start Against Bears

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is the QB9 in total fantasy points this season, so when he draws a juicy matchup at home, he's virtually a must-start. While Goff finished as just the QB22 last time he faced Chicago, this Lions offense is a lot better and is significantly much healthier than it was in […]

Titans Defense Forces Three Turnovers In Loss

The Tennessee Titans fantasy defense/special teams had a bleak outlook against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 17, but it forced two Dak Prescott interceptions and recovered a bobbled snap in the loss on Thursday night. Despite several significant pieces being out of action for Tennessee's defense, it was a solid performance. That said, a matchup […]

Randy Bullock Scores Seven Total Points

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock made both of his field goal attempts and his only extra point attempt in the 27-13 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday Night Football in Week 17. It was a solid performance for the bottom-of-the-barrel fantasy kicker, but there's a low chance many people started him in Week 17. […]

Chigoziem Okonkwo Posts 24 Receiving Yards

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo caught three of his four targets for 24 yards in the 27-13 loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday Night Football in Week 17. Okonkwo was a risky play coming in, but his production was actually better with Joshua Dobbs than with Malik Willis. Fantasy managers who play in […]

Giants Defense Primed For Solid Outing In Week 17

The defense of the New York Giants is poised to have a productive performance in Week 17 versus the Indianapolis Colts. While getting into somewhat of a shootout with the Minnesota Vikings last week, the Giants have accrued seven sacks, two takeaways, and a touchdown in their last two games. The Colts have announced Nick […]
