Joey Slye Not A Factor As Fantasy Playoffs Continue

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye should be avoided in fantasy football ahead of Saturday's Week 17 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Slye ranks 24th among kickers in fantasy points this year, and he has gone just 1-for-2 on field goals over his last two contests. Opportunities have been somewhat hard to come by […]

Patriots Defense Not Reliable As Fantasy Playoffs Continue

The New England Patriots D/ST should be left on waivers in most fantasy leagues as they take on the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 17. While the Bolts' offense ranks near the middle of the league, the Patriots' defense has been one of the worst this year, especially in fantasy football. They did hold the […]

Hunter Henry Trending Up Ahead Of Revenge Game

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry remains a reliable fantasy option heading into Saturday's Week 17 matchup against his old team, the Los Angeles Chargers. Henry has been quite productive in his age-30 season, ranking as the overall TE9 ever since Drake Maye took over as the starting quarterback in Week 6. Even as […]

Austin Hooper Carries Streaming Appeal Into Week 17

New England Patriots tight end Austin Hooper remains a viable streaming option heading into Saturday's Week 17 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Hooper has been one of the NFL's better backup tight ends this season, totaling 22 catches, 293 yards, and two touchdowns over his last six contests. In each of those six games, […]

Kendrick Bourne Off Fantasy Radar In Most Leagues For Week 17

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne has maintained a steady role within the offense, but he remains off the fantasy radar heading into Saturday's Week 17 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Bourne has just 11 catches for 131 yards over his last four games, and he hasn't found the end zone since Week […]

Kayshon Boutte Gets Favorable Matchup At The Perfect Time

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte is a high-ceiling option for Saturday's Week 17 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. The second-year receiver is coming off the best game of his career, catching five passes for 95 yards and a touchdown against the Buffalo Bills while playing 88 percent of the offensive snaps. Boutte […]

DeMario Douglas Gets Favorable Matchup In Week 17

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas remains on the fringe of the fantasy radar heading into Week 17 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Douglas is the overall WR48 in PPR leagues this year, but he has seen reduced opportunities lately with just 11 catches for 64 yards over his last three games. He did […]

Antonio Gibson Still In RB3 Range Ahead Of Potential Start

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson could draw the start over Rhamondre Stevenson during Saturday's Week 17 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. Still, he would rank in the RB3/FLEX tier for fantasy football. Stevenson is coming off a tough performance in which he lost a costly fumble, mishandled a backward pass that led […]

Rhamondre Stevenson A Poor Fantasy Option After Latest Fumble

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson has lost some of his fantasy appeal heading into Week 17 against the Los Angeles Chargers. While Stevenson does rank as the overall RB24 in PPR leagues this year, he has been quite inconsistent and does not inspire much confidence for Week 17. This reduced faith stems from […]

Drake Maye Has Upside In Return Home

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye will look to remain a fringe top-12 fantasy option as his team returns home for the first time since Week 13. The Patriots host the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 17, putting the No. 3 pick up against a Bolts defense that has allowed the 11th-most rushing yards but […]

Jalen Hurts Not Expected To Play In Week 17

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (concussion) is not expected to play in Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Pelissero notes that Hurts missed practice on Thursday, which means that he's in one of the earlier portions of the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. The star quarterback would need to […]

Dre Greenlaw Won't Play Again In 2024

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw (Achilles) is done for the remainder of the 2024 season, according to Cam Inman of The Athletic. Greenlaw had come back from a devastating Achilles injury recently, but with the 49ers eliminated from playoff contention, the team has decided to keep him off the field and avoid potential re-injury. […]

Jerry Jeudy, Cedric Tillman Remain Limited Thursday

Cleveland Browns wide receivers Jerry Jeudy (knee, shin) and Cedric Tillman (concussion) were both limited during practice again on Thursday. This was the second day in a row that the Browns' top two receivers logged limited sessions, which suggests they have a real chance to suit up in Week 17 against the Miami Dolphins. Jeudy […]

Jameis Winston Limited Thursday, Won't Start In Week 17

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston (right shoulder) remained limited in practice on Thursday. Offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey revealed that Dorian Thompson-Robinson will start at quarterback in Week 17, and he also acknowledged that Bailey Zappe could back him up if Winston isn't healthy yet. In such a scenario, Winston would be inactive for the second […]

Bears D/ST Holds Seattle's Offense To Six Points In Week 17 Loss

The Chicago Bears' DST put together an incredible showing in Thursday's 6-3 loss against the Seattle Seahawks. The Bears have struggled on defense over the past two months, leading to many expecting another disappointing showing by the defense. Despite that, Chicago allowed only six points and 265 yards of offense to a Seattle team that […]

D'Andre Swift Racks Up 81 Scrimmage Yards In Thursday's Loss To Seattle

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift was significantly involved in both the run and pass game in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The former Philadelphia Eagle rusher touched the ball 16 times on Thursday, turning 12 carries to 53 rushing yards while catching four passes for 28 receiving yards in Thursday's defeat. Week […]

D.J. Moore Accumulates 62 Yards From Scrimmage In Week 17 Loss To Seattle

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore was heavily involved within the offense in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The former Carolina Panther receiver had six catches on eight targets for 54 yards receiving while adding eight yards rushing on two carries. However, he could not find the end zone for the fourth consecutive […]

Courtland Sutton A High-End WR2 Against Bengals

Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will look to get back into the end zone in Week 17 when the team travels to Cincinnati to take on the Bengals in a game with massive playoff implications on both sides. The Bengals defense has allowed 26.2 points per game (fifth-most in the league), but they've also […]

Keenan Allen Posts Minimal Stats Despite Seeing Eight Targets In Loss To Seattle

Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen was reasonably involved within the offense in Thursday's 6-3 loss against the Seattle Seahawks, though he disappointed with his production. The 32-year-old pass-catcher tied for a team-high eight targets but only caught five passes for 25 yards receiving. Allen struggled to gain momentum throughout the game as the defense […]

Rome Odunze Turns Four Targets Into One Reception In Week 17 Loss

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze had a disappointing outing in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The rookie wideout saw four targets from fellow rookie Caleb Williams, turning those targets to 15 yards receiving on one catch. Odunze struggled to find consistency on the year, as did nearly every Bears player. The 22-year-old […]

Javonte Williams A Low-Upside, Touchdown-Dependent RB3/Flex In Week 17

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams will have even less upside in a good matchup in Week 17 on Saturday against the Cincinnati Bengals on the road with backfield mate Jaleel McLaughlin (quadriceps) returning after a one-game absence. Although Williams averaged 6.0 yards per carry on the ground last week with McLaughlin sidelined in the […]

Jaleel McLaughlin Returning In Week 17, Hard To Trust In Fantasy

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin (quadriceps) practiced in full on Wednesday and Thursday and has been cleared to play in Week 17 for the big game on Saturday against the Cincinnati Bengals. McLaughlin was inactive for the Week 16 loss to the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers last Thursday. He was Denver's leading rusher the […]

Cole Kmet Completely Uninvolved In Thursday's Loss To Seahawks

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet was a statistical no-show in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The fifth-year Bear saw zero passes go his way from quarterback Caleb Williams, marking his third game this season without a single target. Overall, the 25-year-old has caught 45 passes for 471 yards and four touchdowns over […]

Bo Nix Has Clear QB1 Upside Against Bengals

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix is in the QB1 picture for a Week 17 showdown on the road against the Cincinnati Bengals on Saturday. After a slow start to his rookie season, Nix has come on strong in the second half and is currently the QB11 in overall fantasy points thanks to 3,235 passing […]

Caleb Williams Disappoints In Week 17 Loss To Seattle

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams put up a dud in Thursday night's 6-3 loss against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. The rookie quarterback completed 16 of his 28 passes for 122 yards and an interception, adding 37 yards rushing on his five carries. Williams has had a roller coaster of a first season in […]
