Game Recaps


The Bills D/ST allowed 21 points, 261 passing yards, and 126 rushing yards in their 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact: The Bills' defense tallied two sacks, one interception, and two fumble recoveries in the win over the Patriots. They will have a favorable matchup against a struggling Jets' offense in Week 17.


Tyler Bass made 1-of-1 field goal attempts and 3-of-3 extra point attempts in the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact: Bass made his lone field goal attempt from 50 yards out in the third quarter to give the Bills the lead. Bass will look to build on this solid performance in a Week 17 matchup with the Jets.


Dalton Kincaid caught 4-of-7 targets for 15 yards in the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact: Kincaid led the team in targets, but was unable to do much as the Bills' passing attack struggled against New England. Kincaid has received seven targets in both games since returning from a knee injury and should be in line for a similar target share in Week 17 against the Jets.


Keon Coleman caught 1-of-2 targets for 17 yards in the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact: Coleman and the rest of the Bills' passing attack struggled after a rare rough outing from Josh Allen. The rookie wide receiver has logged just two targets in three straight games and should remain out of lineups heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Jets.


Amari Cooper caught 1-of-2 targets for 10 yards in the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact: Cooper has seen his role in the offense decline at the worst time for fantasy managers. Just one week after not seeing a target, he was held to just one reception in Week 16. Fantasy managers may want to look at other options if available in a Week 17 matchup with the Jets.


Khalil Shakir caught 2-of-6 targets for 22 yards in the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact: Shakir was second on the team in targets, but was impacted by a rare off day from QB Josh Allen. The 24-year-old will look for a bounce back performance in a Week 17 matchup with the struggling Jets.


Ray Davis rushed for 12 yards on five carries in the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots. He caught his lone target for 17 yards.

Fantasy Impact: Davis and Ty Johnson continue to see the backup touches behind James Cook. Fantasy managers should leave Davis out of their lineups heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Chargers.


Ty Johnson rushed for 30 yards on six carries in the Bills 24-21 loss to the Patriots. He did not record a reception on his lone target.

Fantasy Impact: Johnson and Ray Davis continue to split the backup running back touches. With Johnson not being featured in the passing game, his fantasy value is limited heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Jets.


James Cook rushed for 100 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries in the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots. He caught 3-of-3 targets for 26 yards and a touchdown.

Fantasy Impact: Cook scored his pair of touchdowns in the second and third quarter to get the Bills back in the game and erase a 14 point deficit. Despite seeing a limited amount of touches, he showed his explosiveness on a 46-yard touchdown run and a 16-yard reception. Cook remains a must start heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Jets.


Josh Allen completed 16-of-29 pass attempts for 154 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the Bills 24-21 win over the Patriots.

Fantasy Impact: Allen also tallied 30 rushing yards on six attempts in the win. Allen suffered a hand injury in the third quarter after hitting his throwing hand on one of the Patriots' defenders helmets. Fantasy managers will want to monitor his status heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Jets.


The Patriots D/ST allowed 24 points, 154 passing yards, and 172 rushing yards in the team's 24-21 loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: The Patriots' defense tallied one sack and one interception in the loss Sunday. They were able to hold Josh Allen in check for most of the day, but it was not enough to secure their fourth win of the season. They will take on Justin Herbert and the Chargers in Week 17.


Joey Slye perfect in Week 16

Mon, Dec 23rd 9:17am EST
By Jesse Garcia

Joey Slye made 3-of-3 extra point attempts in the Patriots 24-21 loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Slye was not asked to do much in the loss Sunday. The 28-year-old has missed seven field goals so far this season and will look to close out the season strong over the next two weeks.


Hunter Henry caught 4-of-9 targets for 39 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots 24-21 loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Henry led the team in targets and found the end zone on a nine-yard reception late in the fourth quarter. The veteran tight end has received at least eight targets in four of his last five games and is an option for those in need of help at tight end in Week 17.


Kendrick Bourne caught 2-of-2 targets for 18 yards in the Patriots 24-21 loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Bourne has seen his target share drop over the last few weeks. Fantasy managers should leave Bourne out of their lineups heading into a Week 17 matchup with the Chargers.


Kayshon Boutte caught 5-of-7 targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in the Patriots 24-21 loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Boutte caught a 28-yard touchdown strike from Drake Maye on the team's first drive of the game. Maye found Boutte on two more long receptions which led Boutte to seeing the second most targets in the loss Sunday. Boutte and Maye have built a rapport which could lead to a similar performance in Week 17 against the Chargers.


DeMario Douglas caught 4-of-5 targets for 33 yards in the Patriots 24-21 loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Douglas has seen his target share drop over the last three games, with Drake Maye funneling more targets to Kayshon Boutte and the tight ends of the last few weeks. With the reduction in targets, it is tough to trust Douglas in a Week 17 matchup with the Chargers.


Antonio Gibson rushed for 28 yards on 10 carries in the Patriots 24-21 loss to the Bills. He caught both of his targets for eight yards.

Fantasy Impact: Gibson continues to see his involvement in the Patriots' offense increase, seeing just two fewer carries than Rhamondre Stevenson. Even with the increase in volume, fantasy managers should leave Gibson out of their lineups in a Week 17 matchup with the Chargers.


Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for 60 yards and a touchdown on 12 carries in the Patriots 24-21 loss to the Bills. He caught his lone target for 13 yards.

Fantasy Impact: Stevenson continues to see Antonio Gibson become more involved in the offense, limiting Stevenson's fantasy upside. He was able to find the end zone on a 14-yard touchdown run in the second quarter, but was a part of a key turnover that resulted in a Bills' defensive touchdown. Stevenson and the Patriots will take on the Chargers in Week 17.


Drake Maye completed 22-of-36 pass attempts for 261 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in the Patriots 24-21 loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Maye also added 30 rushing yards on six attempts. The rookie quarterback threw an excellent 28-yard touchdown pass to Kayshon Boutte on the team's first drive of the game. Maye did commit two turnovers and will need to clean that up as the Patriots look for their fourth win of the season in Week 17.


The Cowboys D/ST allowed 24 points while forcing two turnovers and logging four sacks in a 26-24 win over the Buccaneers in Week 16.

Fantasy Impact: The Dallas defense made things difficult for Baker Mayfield and the Tampa Bay offense on Sunday night. They recovered a Rachaad White fumble late in the fourth quarter to put a damper on Tampa's late comeback attempt. Dallas will take on the Eagles on the road in Week 17.
