Hey, RotoBallers! Week 17 is official here and starts with the Jets and Browns on Thursday night. It's championship week. Fantasy managers have worked very hard to get to this point, and RotoBaller has been with you every step of the way. Let's close this out and help you with tough lineup decisions with our Week 17 fantasy football FLEX rankings.
Minnesota Vikings running back Ty Chandler rushed for 17 yards on eight attempts and a touchdown in the Week 16 loss to the Detroit Lions. The touchdown salvaged his fantasy day. The 25-year-old remains Minnesota's lead back despite Alexander Mattison returning to action. Chandler is an intriguing fantasy option and should be in lineups against a Packers defense that has allowed the seventh most fantasy points to opposing running backs. Below, you will see where Chandler and other key FLEX options, such as Devin Singletary, Kenneth Walker III, Rashee Rice, Demarcus Robinson, and K.J. Osborn rank this week.
Our fantasy football rankings for Week 16 are put together by Nick Mariano. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will find a summary of this week's important fantasy football injury news. There are always critical injuries to track, so check back until kickoff.
Editor's Note: Our incredible team of writers won two writing awards and received 12 award nominations by the Fantasy Sports Writers Association.
