For those of you who are crazy enough to extend your fantasy league into Week 17, we’re back with rankings. However, if there’s one thing I would urge you to do, it’s to end your leagues in Week 16. Imagine going throughout the year with Patrick Mahomes, Tyreek Hill, and Travis Kelce, only to watch them not play in Week 17. The same can be said for Ben Roethlisberger and potentially Josh Allen. Playing into Week 17 invites randomness into fantasy leagues, which is something we already have enough of, so there’s no need to add any more.
With that being said, here are my Week 17 rankings. I’ll be updating them throughout the week, as we’ll be getting more information on who will/will not be playing in meaningless games, so make sure to check back in on Sunday morning. There are plenty of teams with their playoff lives on the line, so it’ll be a normal week for them. But for now, the teams who are in danger of resting starters are the Chiefs, Steelers, Bills, and Buccaneers (along with others who’ve been mathematically eliminated).
