- 49ers vs. Commanders Player Prop Bets via BettingPros
Pace and playcalling notes
- Since Week 12, the 49ers have remained dead last in neutral pace, but they have climbed to ninth in neutral passing rate.
- Over their last four games, Washington has ranked 18th in neutral pace and 11th in neutral passing rate.
Quarterbacks
Brock Purdy: Chalk last week up as a bad game and move along. Even with that wretched stat line included, Purdy remains the QB4 in fantasy points per game. Among 46 qualifying quarterbacks, he still ranks first in yards per attempt and passer rating, third in CPOE, and second in fantasy points per dropback. This is a prime spot for a Purdy bounceback. Since Week 11, Washington remains a cellar dweller pass defense, giving up the fifth-highest yards per attempt, the sixth-most passing yards, the second-most passing touchdowns, and the seventh-highest CPOE. Week 17 Positional Value: QB1
#Commanders are expected to start quarterback Sam Howell on Sunday against #49ers due to quarterback Jacoby Brissett being sidelined with hamstring injury aggravated, per a league source @KPRC2
— Aaron Wilson (@AaronWilson_NFL) December 30, 2023
Sam Howell: Sam Howell is expected to get the start in Week 17, with Jacoby Brissett dealing with a hamstring issue. Howell is the QB14 in fantasy points per game this season, but since Week 13, he has played terribly. Since Week 13, among 38 qualifying quarterbacks, he ranks 36th in yards per attempt, 37th in passer rating, and 36th in CPOE and fantasy points per dropback. Howell isn’t worth considering in 1QB formats, and in Superflex, it’s still tough to plug him into a lineup. The 49ers should demolish him. Since Week 11, San Francisco has allowed the 12th-lowest yards per attempt, the ninth-lowest passer rating, and the 12th-lowest CPOE. Week 17 Positional Value: QB2
Running Backs
Christian McCaffrey: If you have McCaffrey, you’re playing him. There’s not a lot to dig into here. He’s the RB1 in fantasy, ranking fourth in opportunity share, second in carries, fourth in targets, and first in red zone touches. Since Week 9, Washington has also been unable to stop running backs, allowing the ninth-most rushing yards per game, the eighth-highest rushing touchdown rate, and the third-highest yards after contact per attempt. Week 17 Positional Value: THE RB1
Brian Robinson: Robinson has been limited in practice all week (hamstring). He has not been listed with an injury designation. In Weeks 1-12, Robinson averaged 15.2 touches and 78.1 total yards. Robinson is the RB20 in fantasy points per game this season. He ranks 16th in explosive run rate and 15th in yards after contact per attempt. Robinson will reprise his early down role this week against a middle-of-the-road 49ers’ run defense. Since Week 11, they rank 15th in stuff rate, 17th in missed tackles per attempt, and 15th in rushing touchdown rate. Week 17 Positional Value: RB3
Antonio Gibson: Gibson is an easy avoid for your fantasy lineups this week. The luster and intrigue that Gibson once had for fantasy gamers is gone. Over the last two weeks, he has played 44-45% of the snaps, averaging 9.5 touches and 33.5 total yards. Even with Brian Robinson out, Gibson has remained in his usual role. Since Week 9, the 49ers have allowed the eighth-fewest rushing yards per game, the 14th-lowest rushing touchdown rate, and the fifth-lowest yards before contact per attempt. Week 17 Positional Value: Sit
Wide Receivers
Deebo Samuel: Samuel was limited in practice on Wednesday (neck). Samuel has had yet another monster season when he’s been on the field as the WR10 in fantasy points per game. He ranks sixth in yards after the catch, third in total touchdowns, and 27th in red zone targets. Since Week 11, Washington has ranked fifth in two-high usage (59.9%). Since Week 11, against two high, Samuel has dominated the pass game looks with a 28.6% target share, a 24.9% air-yard share, 2.73 YPRR, and a 38% first-read share. Samuel has had 0.67 fantasy points per route run since Week 11 against two-high. He should roast this bumbling Washington secondary. Since Week 10, Washington has allowed the 14th-highest PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers. Week 17 Positional Value: WR1
Brandon Aiyuk: Aiyuk has been a problem for defenses all year as the WR15 in fantasy. He is 18th in deep targets, 11th in receiving yards, and 17th in yards after the catch. This could be a more muted week for Aiyuk, though. Since Week 11, Washington has ranked fifth in two-high usage (59.9%). Since Week 11, against two high, Aiyuk has had a 15.5% target share, a 29.4% air-yard share, 1.83 YPRR, and a 22% first-read share. Aiyuk can break off a few long plays this week to save his week, but Samuel should lead the way. Since Week 10, Washington has allowed the 14th-highest PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers. Week 17 Positional Value: WR2
Terry McLaurin: There’s no way around it. McLaurin has been a disappointment this season. He is the WR38 in fantasy points per game with only one week as a WR3 or better over his last six games. He has only two red zone targets and one receiving touchdown since Week 8. Since Week 11, the 49ers have had the ninth-highest rate of two-high (54.0%). In the last five games with Wasthington’s starting receiver trio healthy, McLaurin has had a 22.5% target share, a 45.4% air-yard share, and a 26.4% first-read share against two-high, but he’s only produced 1.25 YPRR with that volume and 0.31 fantasy points per route run. Not good. Since Week 10, the 49ers have allowed the fifth-fewest PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers. Week 17 Positional Value: WR3/4
Jahan Dotson: Dotson hasn’t surpassed 60 receiving yards in a game since Week 9 and has only two games with double-digit fantasy points across the last six weeks. Since Week 11, the 49ers have had the ninth-highest rate of two-high (54.0%). In the last five games with Wasthington’s starting receiver trio healthy, Dotson has an 8.8% target share and 0.74 YPRR against two-high. Week 17 Positional Value: Sit
Curtis Samuel: If you missed the mid-season Samuel gravy train, I’m sorry, but this isn’t the week to chase the fantasy points. Since Week 10, the 49ers have held slot receivers to the 12th-fewest PPR points per target. Since Week 11, the 49ers have had the ninth-highest rate of two-high (54.0%). In the last five games with Wasthington’s starting receiver trio healthy, Samuel has had a 16.3% target share, 1.69 YPRR, and a 20.8% first-read share against two-high. Week 17 Positional Value: Sit
Tight Ends
George Kittle: Kittle is the TE6 in fantasy points per game, ranking first in deep targets, ninth in red zone targets, 10th in receptions, and third in receiving yards among tight ends. Kittle is also second in yards after the catch and touchdowns. Since Week 11, Washington has ranked fifth in two-high usage (59.9%). Since Week 11, against two high, Kittle has had a 19.0% target share (second on the team), a 23.7% air-yard share, 1.90 YPRR, and a 20% first-read share. Kittle is an every-week must-start, and you just deal with the highs and lows of his fantasy point production. Week 17 Positional Value: TE1
Logan Thomas: Thomas is the TE16 in fantasy points per game, ranking 13th in deep targets and 15th in red zone targets among tight ends. Thomas has five TE1 weeks this season. Since Week 11, the 49ers have had the ninth-highest rate of two-high (54.0%). In the last five games with Wasthington’s starting receiver trio and Thomas healthy, he has had a 13.8% target share, 1.59 YPRR, and a 15.1% first-read share. Thomas is a TE2 this week. The 49ers have held tight ends to the 12th-fewest fantasy points per game and the ninth-lowest yards per reception. Week 17 Positional Value: TE2
DET vs. DAL | NE vs. BUF | ATL vs. CHI | LV vs. IND | LAR vs. NYG | ARI vs. PHI | NO vs. TB | SF vs. WAS | CAR vs. JAC | MIA vs. BAL | TEN vs. HOU | PIT vs. SEA | LAC vs. DEN | CIN vs. KC | GB vs. MIN
Carolina Panthers vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
- JAX -7, O/U 37.5
- Panthers vs. Jaguars Player Prop Bets via BettingPros
Pace and playcalling notes
- Since Week 12, Carolina has had the seventh-slowest neutral pace while rocking the second-highest neutral rushing rate.
- In their last five games, Jacksonville has ranked 19th in neutral pace and fifth in neutral passing rate.
Quarterbacks
Bryce Young: What is that? A spark. A flicker of hope for Young? Yes, he has looked much better over the last two weeks. Since Week 15, among 37 qualifying quarterbacks, he ranks 10th in yards per attempt and passer rating, ninth in CPOE, and sixth in hero throw rate. If you’re looking for a secondary to help boost a young quarterback’s confidence, look no further than Jacksonville. Since Week 12, Jacksonville has allowed the sixth-highest yards per attempt and passing touchdowns, the third-highest CPOE, and the seventh-most passing yards per game. Young is a viable QB2 with upside this week. Week 17 Positional Value: QB2
Trevor Lawrence: Lawrence has been ruled out. Do not play C.J. Beathard. Carolina has not been kind to fantasy quarterbacks. Since Week 12, they have allowed the ninth-lowest yards per attempt and the lowest passing yards per game and ranked 16th in passer rating.
Running Backs
Chuba Hubbard: Since Week 12, Hubbard has been the RB13 in fantasy points per game, averaging 22 touches and 89.2 total yards. He ranks 39th in missed tackles forced per attempt and 33rd in yards after contact per attempt. Since Week 12, Jacksonville’s run defense has been selectively swiss cheese, allowing the fourth-highest explosive run rate and the third-highest missed tackles per attempt. The big plays allowed by this run defense have come on gap plays. Since Week 11, Jacksonville has allowed the ninth-highest yards per carry to gap runs while they have held zone runs to the fourth-lowest yards per carry (3.35). Unfortunately for Hubbard, 60.8% of his runs have come via zone runs. Hubbard is a good bet for 15-20 touches this week, but his efficiency outlook is questionable. Week 17 Positional Value: RB2
Travis Etienne: Etienne’s season has gone sideways. Since Week 10, he hasn’t recorded more than 56 rushing yards in any game while averaging 15.4 touches and 61.4 total yards. Since Week 10, Etienne has been the RB30 in fantasy points per game. Across his last seven games, among 62 qualifying backs, he ranks 31st in explosive run rate and 42nd in yards after contact per attempt. Some blame can be laid at Etienne’s feet, but his offensive line has also been among the worst in the NFL. Since Week 10, they have the second-lowest adjusted yards before contact per attempt. Yes, I know Aaron Jones destroyed this run defense last week, but since Week 11, this unit has played better. Over their last six games, Carolina has the 12th-fewest rushing yards per game allowed, the eighth-best stuff rate, and the seventh-lowest yards before contact per attempt given up. I’m lower on Etienne this week than the consensus will be. Week 17 Positional Value: RB2
Wide Receivers
Adam Thielen: After beginning the season red hot, Thielen has cooled off considerably. Since Week 11, he has surpassed 50 receiving yards only three times. He hasn’t scored a touchdown since Week 6. Since Week 12, Jacksonville has had the 10th-highest rate of two high (52.9%). Since Week 11 against two high, Thielen has had a 20% target share, a 26.5% air-yard share, 1.65 YPRR, and a 23.7% first-read share. Since Week 10, Jacksonville has allowed the fifth-most PPR points per target and the fifth-highest passer rating when targeted to slot receivers. Week 17 Positional Value: WR3
Jonathan Mingo: OK, here’s your deep coverage matchup pull for the week. Mingo has done nearly nothing in fantasy for most of the season as the WR77 in fantasy points per game with zero receiving touchdowns. This is a wonderful matchup for him, though. Since Week 12, Jacksonville has had the 10th-highest rate of two high (52.9%). Since Week 11 against two high, Mingo has had a 26.7% target share, a 42.4% air-yard share, 1.22 YPRR, and a 39.5% first-read share. Since week 10, Jacksonville has allowed the fifth-highest PPR points per target and the 10th-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers. Week 17 Positional Value: Strong deep league flex play
Calvin Ridley: Ridley is the WR26 in fantasy, but it has been a wild ride. His usage has been fantastic, though, ranking sixth in deep targets and fourth in red zone targets. He has five games as a WR1 this season in weekly scoring, but he also has five weeks as the WR50 or lower. Since Week 11, Carolina has the third-highest rate of single-high (60.9%). Against single-high, Ridley has a 25.7% target share, a 42.3% air-yard share, 2.29 YPRR, and a 29.0% first-read share. The target volume will be there this week, but it’s worthwhile to wonder what he’ll do with it. Prior to smashing the Bucs in Week 16, Ridley faceplanted against two other single-high heavy matchups in Cleveland and Baltimore with 25 targets that he turned into seven receptions and 92 total yards. Since Week 10, Carolina has held perimeter wide receivers to the 11th-lowest PPR points per target and the sixth-fewest receiving yards per game. Week 17 Positional Value: WR3
Zay Jones: Jones has been limited all week as he’s still dealing with knee and hamstring issues. Even if Jones is active this week, he could be a limited snap player in a tough matchup. He’s an easy sit candidate. Since Week 10, Carolina has held perimeter wide receivers to the 11th-lowest PPR points per target and the sixth-fewest receiving yards per game. Week 17 Positional Value: Sit
Tight Ends
Evan Engram: Engram has been fantastic this season as the TE6 in fantasy. He has already set career highs in targets, receptions, and receiving yards. He ranks fifth in deep targets and 17th in red zone targets. Since Week 11, Carolina has the third-highest rate of single-high (60.9%). Against single-high, Engram has a 22.6% target share, 2.00 YPRR, and a 24.4% first-read share. Engram should see healthy volume this week, but the matchup is tough. Carolina has held tight ends to the sixth-fewest receiving yards and the 13th-fewest fantasy points per game. Week 17 Positional Value: TE1
DET vs. DAL | NE vs. BUF | ATL vs. CHI | LV vs. IND | LAR vs. NYG | ARI vs. PHI | NO vs. TB | SF vs. WAS | CAR vs. JAC | MIA vs. BAL | TEN vs. HOU | PIT vs. SEA | LAC vs. DEN | CIN vs. KC | GB vs. MIN
Miami Dolphins vs. Baltimore Ravens
- BAL -4, O/U 47
- Dolphins vs. Ravens Player Prop Bets via BettingPros
Pace and playcalling notes
- Since Week 12, the Ravens have been first in neutral pace and 14th in neutral passing rate. Activate the Monken effect.
- Across their last five games, Miami ranks 15th in neutral passing rate with the eighth-slowest neutral pace.
Quarterbacks
Tua Tagovailoa: Tagovailoa is the QB17 in fantasy. His wild Grand Canyon sized volatility weekly has been discussed. Tagovailoa has been the Ricky Bobby of fantasy quarterbacks. If you’re ain’t first, then you’re last. That hasn’t stopped him from ranking second in yards per attempt, CPOE, and passer rating. Tagovailoa will need everything in the Mike McDaniel magic bag this week to defeat the Baltimore secondary. Since Week 11, the Ravens have allowed the seventh-lowest yards per attempt, the eighth-lowest passer rating, and the fourth-lowest CPOE. Week 17 Positional Value: QB2
Lamar Jackson: Jackson dismantled the 49ers’ vaunted pass defense last week as the QB8 in fantasy with 7.2 yards per attempt and a QB8 finish. Jackson continues to cruise along as the QB4 in fantasy. His rushing ability remains a cheat code in fantasy as he is second in red zone carries per game, first in rushing yards, and fourth in rushing touchdowns among quarterbacks. His passing skills continue to be underrated, though, as he is fifth in yards per attempt, ninth in passer rating, and first in CPOE. Jackson has another daunting matchup this week against one of the league’s best defenses. I won’t bet against him. Since Week 11, Miami has allowed the fifth-lowest yards per attempt, the lowest passer rating, and the sixth-lowest CPOE. Despite the bad matchup, Jackson is a must-play. Week 17 Positional Value: QB1
Running Backs
#Dolphins RB Raheem Mostert, who is tied for the NFL lead with 21 TDs, is expected to be inactive Sunday against the #Ravens, sources tell me and @RapSheet.
Mostert barely practiced this week because of knee and ankle injuries. Big loss for Miami, and fantasy teams everywhere … pic.twitter.com/NI9Mdy4ndL
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) December 31, 2023
Raheem Mostert: Mostert is expected to be inactive this week.
De’Von Achane: Achane didn’t practice on Wednesday (toe), but he did get in a limited session on Thursday. Last week, he only had eight touches and 31 total yards, but he played 55% of the snaps, which is his highest snap share since Week 13. Achane’s explosive abilities could be the key for Miami this week. Achane ranks first in explosive run rate, second in missed tackles forced per attempt, and first in yards after contact per attempt. Achane will lead the backfield this week with Mostert out, and Jeff Wilson will also play a supporting role in this backfield. Expect Achane to log 17-20 touches this week, with room for more. Since Week 11, the Ravens have allowed the 14th-highest explosive run rate and the 11th-highest yards before contact per attempt with the 11th-lowest stuff rate. Week 17 Positional Value: RB1/2
Gus Edwards: Edwards has been a touchdown-or-bust option in fantasy for most of the season. He is the RB28 in fantasy points per game, ranking 37th in opportunity share and weighted opportunities. He is 17th in red zone touches and third in total touchdowns. He has averaged 12.4 touches and 57.5 total yards. Edwards ranks 40th in missed tackles forced per attempt and 37th in yards after contact per attempt. He faces a Miami run defense that has shut down ball carriers. Since Week 11, they have allowed the fifth-lowest explosive run rate, the second-fewest rushing yards per game, and the 12th-lowest missed tackles per attempt. Week 17 Positional Value: Touchdown or bust flex
Wide Receivers
Tyreek Hill: Hill was limited in practice on Thursday after opening the week with a DNP. Hill should play this week. Matchups don’t matter for Hill. If he is active, you play him. He is the WR1 in fantasy, ranking fifth in targets, third in receptions, first in receiving yards, third in deep targets, and seventh in red zone targets. Since Week 12, the Ravens have had the ninth-highest rate of two high (54.4%). Against two high, Hill has a 30.2% target share, a 43.9% air-yard share, 3.72 YPRR, and a 37% first-read share. Week 17 Positional Value: WR1
Jaylen Waddle: Waddle has been ruled out.
Zay Flowers: Flowers didn’t practice on Wednesday and Thursday, but he did sneak in a limited session on Friday (calf). He has been listed as questionable. Flowers is the WR36 in fantasy points per game, ranking 21st in deep targets and 22nd in red zone targets. He ranks 17th in receptions and 18th in yards after catch. He has a 23.2% target share, 1.53 YPRR, and a 28.6% first-read share. He has a tough road to travel this week against a secondary that, since Week 11, has held perimeter wide receivers to the 12th-fewest receiving yards per game. Week 17 Positional Value: WR3
Tight Ends
Isaiah Likely: Since assuming the starting role, Likely has had a 16.4% target share, 1.95 YPRR, and a 15.6% first-read share as the TE5 in fantasy. Likely has four red zone targets over his last four games. The Dolphins have allowed the 10th-most receptions to tight ends and rank 17th in receiving yards permitted. Week 17 Positional Value: TE1
DET vs. DAL | NE vs. BUF | ATL vs. CHI | LV vs. IND | LAR vs. NYG | ARI vs. PHI | NO vs. TB | SF vs. WAS | CAR vs. JAC | MIA vs. BAL | TEN vs. HOU | PIT vs. SEA | LAC vs. DEN | CIN vs. KC | GB vs. MIN
Tennessee Titans vs. Houston Texans
- HOU -3.5, O/U 42.5
- Titans vs. Texans Player Prop Bets via BettingPros
Pace and playcalling notes
- In C.J. Stroud‘s last six starts, the Texans ranked 14th in neutral pace and 12th in neutral passing rate.
- With Will Levis starting, the Titans have the ninth-slowest neutral pace and the sixth-highest neutral rushing rate.
Quarterbacks
Will Levis: The last time Levis faced this pass defense, he finished with a 65.4% completion rate, 7.7 yards per attempt, and zero passing touchdowns as the QB18 for the week. Levis is the QB23 in fantasy points per game with zero weekly finishes higher than QB15 since Week 9. Among 46 qualifying quarterbacks, he ranks 25th in passer rating, 24th in CPOE, 32nd in highly accurate throw rate, and 31st in fantasy points per dropback. Levis was highly hyped after his huge game against the Falcons, but he hasn’t gotten close to living up to the hype that one game built for him. I wouldn’t count him out from having a much better game in his second meeting against Houston. Their pass defense has hit a wall in recent weeks. Since Week 11, they have allowed the fourth-highest yards per attempt and passing yards per game while also coughing up the ninth-highest CPOE and the tenth-most fantasy points via passing. Week 17 Positional Value: QB2
C.J. Stroud: Stroud is the QB7 in fantasy points per game, ranking fourth in yards per attempt, 11th in passing touchdowns, and fifth in passer rating. Tennessee has been a pass defense to take advantage of weekly. Since Week 11, they have allowed the seventh-highest passer rating while ranking 15th in passing yards per game and fantasy points allowed via passing. They have been wretched at defending deep passing. Since Week 11, they have allowed the second-highest yards per attempt and the highest passer rating and CPOE on targets 20 yards downfield or deeper. Stroud should enjoy a fabulous return to the lineup. Week 17 Positional Value: QB1
Running Backs
Derrick Henry: Henry has been a volatile fantasy play all year, as evidenced by his 20 touches and 10 total yards in his last meeting with this defense. Henry has averaged 18.5 touches and 79.1 total yards this season as the RB13 in fantasy points per game. Henry ranks 16th in opportunity share and 12th in weighted opportunities. Among 63 qualifying backs, Henry ranks 19th in explosive run rate and 22nd in missed tackles forced per attempt. Henry should prepare for another long day at the office in Week 17. Since Week 11, Houston has allowed the fourth-lowest explosive run rate and rushing yards per game while also sporting the second-best stuff rate. Henry needs a touchdown to pay off this week. Week 17 Positional Value: RB2
Devin Singletary: Singletary has had some monster games this season, and one of them came against this defense. In Week 15, he had 30 touches with 170 total yards. Just ridiculous usage. Since Week 10, he has averaged 18.7 touches and 98.4 total yards. He ranks 14th in explosive run rate and 20th in missed tackles forced per attempt. Singletary could post another juicy stat line this week against Tennessee. Since Week 11, they have been a middle-of-the-road run defense, sitting at 16th in explosive run rate and 15th in yards after contact per attempt while having the ninth-highest missed tackles per attempt. Week 17 Positional Value: RB2
Wide Receivers
DeAndre Hopkins: Hopkins is the WR30, ranking first in deep targets and 17th in red zone targets among wide receivers. He is closing in on another 1,000-yard receiving season (939). Quarterback play has held him back this season, as he is the WR17 in expected fantasy points per game. Hopkins should be able to take advantage of Houston’s two-high heavy approach this week. Since Week 12, they have the fifth-highest rate of two high (60.2%). With Levis under center against two-high, Hopkins has a 28.4% target share, a 45.9% air-yard share, 2.92 YPRR, and a 36.9% first-read share. Since Week 10, the Texans have allowed the third-most PPR points per target and the fifth-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers. Week 17 Positional Value: WR2
Nico Collins: Collins is the WR14 in fantasy points per game, ranking 22nd in red zone targets, 16th in receiving yards, and 11th in yards after the catch. Since Week 12, Tennessee has had the seventh-highest rate of two-high (56.8%). In the last five games that Collins and Noah Brown have been on the field together, against two-high, Collins has a 20% target share, a 30.8% air-yard share, 3.61 YPRR, and a 32% first-read share. Since Week 10, Tennessee has allowed the eighth-highest PPR points per target and the second-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers. Week 17 Positional Value: WR1/2
Noah Brown: Brown has had some brilliant moments this season with three WR1 weeks (WR3, WR6, WR9). One of those illustrious games came against the Titans in Week 15 when Brown led the passing attack with 11 targets, eight grabs, 82 receiving yards, and a score. Since Week 12, Tennessee has had the seventh-highest rate of two-high (56.8%). In the last five games that Collins and Noah Brown have been on the field together, against two-high, Brown has a 16.3% target share, 1.60 YPRR, and a 22% first-read share. If Stroud cooks this secondary this week, Brown is coming along for the ride. Since Week 10, Tennessee has allowed the eighth-highest PPR points per target and the second-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers. Week 17 Positional Value: WR3/4
Tight Ends
Chigoziem Okonkwo: Okonkwo is the TE25 in fantasy points per game with only two TE1 games on his 2023 resume. Last week, he caught his first touchdown, which oddly enough was thrown by Derrick Henry. Okonkwo’s red zone usage still sucks, but he has three of his five red zone targets in his last seven games. Since Week 12, Houston has the fifth-highest rate of two high (60.2%). With Levis under center against two high, Okonkwo has a 16.4% target share, 1.45 YPRR, and a 17.9% first-read share. Okonkwo is a matchup-based TE2 streamer this week. Houston has allowed the third-most receiving yards and the sixth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends. Week 17 Positional Value: TE2 with TE1 upside
Dalton Schultz: Schultz has been a strong tight end play for most of the season as the TE9 in fantasy points per game, but this isn’t the week to plug him into lineups. The matchup is horrendous. I’d rather stream a ton of tight ends over Schultz this week. Tennessee has allowed the seventh-fewest receiving yards, the fewest fantasy points per game, and only one receiving touchdown to tight ends this season. Week 17 Positional Value: Sit
DET vs. DAL | NE vs. BUF | ATL vs. CHI | LV vs. IND | LAR vs. NYG | ARI vs. PHI | NO vs. TB | SF vs. WAS | CAR vs. JAC | MIA vs. BAL | TEN vs. HOU | PIT vs. SEA | LAC vs. DEN | CIN vs. KC | GB vs. MIN
