Week 16 FanDuel NFL DFS Picks - Main Slate (2024): Joe Burrow, Jahmyr Gibbs, Ja'Marr Chase, Trey McBride

It’s Week 16, which began with the Chargers picking up a win over the Broncos. With the victory, Los Angeles is nearly guaranteed to make the postseason, although Denver is still in the hunt. Entering Week 16, nine teams have already been eliminated from playoff contention, with more expected to come after this weekend. In […]

DraftKings CFB DFS Lineup Picks: Daily College Fantasy Football (12/21/24)

College football cleared the way for the expanded playoff to dominate the final Saturday before Christmas. We'll have plenty more bowls coming up during Christmas week, but this Saturday will be for the giant revenue-making abomination that is the expanded playoff. Hey, those NIL deals don't pay for themselves! We have three playoff games today, […]

Chuba Hubbard To Be Relied On For Playoff Matchups

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard will look to churn his legs to production against a middling Arizona Cardinals front four in Week 16. Hubbard disappointed last week, to the chagrin of many managers, rushing for just 32 yards on 10 carries against the Dallas Cowboys. Carolina fell behind early and opted to initiate a […]

Ameer Abdullah Likely To Split Touches With Alexander Mattison In Week 16

The Las Vegas Raiders will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 16 in what is an easy matchup for running backs in fantasy. Raiders running back Ameer Abdullah will probably split volume with RB Alexander Mattison (neck), and Abdullah presents the more interesting option in fantasy football, since he seems to have more pass-catching […]

Alexander Mattison May Or May Not Lead Backfield In Week 16

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison (neck) is expected to play in Week 16, when his team will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. We're just a few games away from finally wrapping up the rollercoaster of misery that has been the Raiders backfield in 2024. With RB Zamir White (quad) still on injured reserve […]

Tyjae Spears Looks To Stay Hot Against The Colts

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears could be suited for another productive game as a matchup against the Indianapolis Colts approaches. Titans lead back Tony Pollard's (ankle) status is currently up in the air for Sunday as he is listed as questionable with an ankle injury, leaving the door open for Spears to potentially step […]

Devin Singletary Might Start In Week 16

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary could be in line for an expanded role in Week 16 against the Atlanta Falcons with starter Tyrone Tracy Jr. questionable due to an ankle injury. Singletary has been a steady, if unspectacular, contributor this season with 382 rushing yards, 4 touchdowns, and a 3.9 YPC average, earning […]

Jonathan Taylor's Workload Gives Him RB1 Upside In Week 16

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has 21 or more carries in four of the last five contests with virtually no competition for touches from the other running backs on the team. That is, except for Anthony Richardson who has scored four times on the ground over the last four weeks while Taylor hasn't scored […]

Antonio Gibson Only A Deep-League Option In Week 16

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson doesn't receive enough volume to make him a household name in fantasy football, but his efficiency does put him on the radar in deeper leagues. The 26-year-old is averaging 6.8 yards per carry on 14 rushing attempts over the last two weeks, adding a touchdown along the way. […]

James Conner Is A Solid RB1 In Week 16

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner is a must-start RB1 in Week 16 when the Cardinals face the Carolina Panthers on the road. Conner will look to eclipse 1,000 rushing yards for a second straight season, entering this game with 973 yards. He has been a workhorse all year, posting ten games with 20 or […]

Tank Bigsby A Risky Flex Play In Week 16

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby is a flex option, at best, in Week 16 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Bigsby was demoted to a backup role behind Travis Etienne Jr. in Week 15, making it hard to trust him in fantasy going forward. The Raiders do serve as a good matchup and potentially an […]

Saquon Barkley Eyes Bounce-Back Against Washington

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley aims to rebound in Week 16 against the Washington Commanders after being held to just 65 rushing yards in last week's 27-13 win over the Steelers. The game marked Barkley's second-lowest rushing total of the season, snapping his streak of four consecutive 100-yard performances. Barkley also missed part of […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Could Flash Receiving Skills In Buffalo

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson could have an opportunity to demonstrate his pass-catching upside during Sunday's Week 16 game against the Buffalo Bills. New England faces Buffalo two times over the next three weeks, and this Sunday's contest could set the tone for Stevenson to win back some of the opportunities that he […]

Chase Brown A Top Fantasy Option In Week 16

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown has had an excellent 2024-25 campaign. The 24-year-old has 832 yards off 191 carries and 47 catches for 318 yards. He's also combined for 11 touchdowns, finding the end zone at least once in seven of his previous nine appearances. With the Browns on tap for Week 16, Chase […]

Blake Corum Remains Off The Fantasy Radar In Week 16

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum received attention from fantasy managers heading into the season, mostly due to head coach Sean McVay indicating he would be involved. While the rookie has gotten some action, amassing 48 carries for 187 yards and six grabs for 46 yards, it hasn't been at the level most envisioned. […]

Patrick Taylor Jr. A Reasonable Flex In Week 16

San Francisco 49ers running back Patrick Taylor Jr. is expected to draw his first career start filling in for the ruled-out rookie Isaac Guerendo (foot, hamstring) in Miami on Sunday. With Guerendo healthy enough to play, the undrafted 26-year-old Taylor Jr. received neither touch nor target in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 16? Breece Hall, Tony Pollard, Tyrone Tracy Jr.

It's hard to find consistently good running backs in fantasy football. Each year, there are only a few that have zero games with less than double-digit PPR fantasy points. This year, there are none, though, since Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry finally logged his first game of just single-digit scoring. So it's always worth […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 16? Brian Robinson Jr., Tank Bigsby, Rhamondre Stevenson

With the fantasy playoffs in full swing, it is crucial to consider all options when constructing our starting lineup. In this piece, I will analyze three running backs who have been solid RB2s all season but have flashed RB1 potential at times. Brian Robinson Jr. has taken full control of the Washington backfield, while Tank […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 16? Chuba Hubbard, Jonathan Taylor, Rachaad White

With most fantasy leagues kicking off the semifinal round of the fantasy playoffs in Week 16, start/sit decisions are even more important than usual. Today we will look at three starting-quality fantasy running backs and break down what can be expected out of them this week. With all of the injuries to various running backs […]

Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 16? Aaron Jones, Travis Etienne Jr., Alexander Mattison

Sometimes good running backs have bad games, sometimes bad running backs have good games, and sometimes running backs who everyone thought were good due to past performance end up having terrible seasons. Each of these truths leads us to -- you guessed it -- start-sit decisions! And it's Week 16, so those choices are more […]

Kyren Williams Draws A Tough Matchup In Week 16

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams has had a quality season. He's already gone for over 1,000 yards on the ground while also combining for 14 touchdowns. Although the 24-year-old has averaged only 4.0 yards per carry, fantasy managers have been pleased with his production. With Los Angeles looking to make the playoffs, Williams […]

Bijan Robinson Locked In As A High-End RB1 In Week 16

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson logged at least 20 carries for the fourth time in the last five contests last week and will be expected to carry the load again this week with rookie QB Michael Penix Jr. under center for the Falcons. With eight rushing TDs on the season and a receiving TD […]

Jeremy McNichols Expected To Have Small Role In Week 16

Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols should not be started in any format this weekend facing the Philadelphia Eagles. With Austin Ekeler (concussion) sidelined, McNichols has taken the No.2 spot behind Brian Robinson Jr. While Chris Rodriguez Jr. has occasionally seen an increase in attempts, McNichols was deployed as the clear No.2 option last weekend […]

Brian Robinson Jr. Projects To Be High-End RB2 Facing Philadelphia

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. should be set for another workhorse opportunity to share this weekend, facing the Philadelphia Eagles with Austin Ekeler (concussion) on the injured reserve. Last weekend, Robinson had a modest showing, tallying only 65 rushing yards and 22 receiving yards against the Saints. However, during Week 14, Robinson tallied […]

Alvin Kamara Misses Another Practice On Friday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (groin) missed a second straight day of practice this week on Friday. Interim head coach Darren Rizzi said on Thursday that Kamara is unlikely to play on Monday night against the Green Bay Packers in Week 16, and with the Saints barely clinging to faint playoff hopes, there's […]

David Montgomery Yet To Go On Injured Reserve

The Detroit Lions are still deciding on whether to place running back David Montgomery (knee) on Injured Reserve, which would require him to miss at least four games. Head coach Dan Campbell said the team is "optimistic" about Montgomery's ability to return in the playoffs despite suffering an MCL injury in last week's loss to […]

Now is not the time to get complacent and miss out on injury news for key players on your team. In what is the second […]

Cam Akers To Be Safely Avoided For Fantasy Semi-Finals

Minnesota Vikings running back Cam Akers remains strictly a handcuff option for this Sunday's road clash with the Seattle Seahawks. Akers scored a touchdown on ten carries (his most in a game since Week 11), rushing for 24 yards in last weekend's 30-12 rout of the Bears. Still, he picked up most of his work […]
