Aaron Rodgers

Aaron Rodgers is the QB21 in fantasy points per game with three QB1 outings in weekly scoring this season. Rodgers should return low-end QB2 numbers this week. Among 45 qualifying passers, he ranks 11th in passing touchdowns (tied), first in percentage of passing yards from yards after the catch (65.9%), and 22nd in yards per attempt and fantasy points per dropback. The Browns' pass defense has remained strong. Since Week 12, they have allowed the sixth-fewest passing yards per game, the eighth-fewest yards per attempt, the tenth-lowest CPOE, and the sixth-lowest success rate per dropback.

Aaron Rodgers completed 21-of-39 passes for 168 yards in the Steelers 13-6 loss to the Browns. He rushed one time for six yards.

Fantasy Impact

Rodgers was dealing with a depleted receiving corps without DK Metcalf and Calvin Austin. The Steelers' offense never really seemed to get going until the final drive of the game, in which the comeback effort fell just short. Rodgers and the Steelers will take on the Ravens in Week 18, with the winner winning the AFC North.
