[DET - Shane Zylstra catches three TDs]() Source: NFL.com Detroit Lions TE [Shane Zylstra](=) caught five passes for 26 yards and three touchdowns against the Carolina Panthers in Week 16. He was targeted six times during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Zylstra is last in the phone book, but first on the list of three touchdown performances from the most unlikely candidates. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 2. [MIN - Immaculate outing for TE T.J. Hockenson](=) Source: 1 No Source Minnesota Vikings TE [T.J. Hockenson](=) recorded 13 receptions for 109 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the Week 16 win over the New York Giants. He was tied for the team lead with 16 targets. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Hockenson was a week winner for anyone who relied on him. He had a spectacular catch for one of his scores and provided a dependable short-range target for Kirk Cousins. The trade to Minnesota has been great for his fantasy value. The Packers are up next for him and the Vikings. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 3. [WAS - QB Taylor Heinicke benched](=) Source: FOX Sports - Ralph Vacchiano Washington Commanders QB [Taylor Heinicke](=) was benched in the fourth quarter of the Week 16 game against the San Francisco 49ers. He completed 13-of-18 passes for 166 yards, two touchdowns, one interception and one fumble lost. He was replaced by QB [Carson Wentz](=). [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The back and forth continues for the Washington QB position. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 4. [NO - Big day for RB Alvin Kamara](=) Source: 1 No Source New Orleans Saints RB [Alvin Kamara](=) took 20 carries for 76 yards and a rushing touchdown in the Week 16 win over the Cleveland Browns. He also added two receptions on four targets for 34 receiving yards. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Kamara ran tough in the cold and wind, breaking a tackle on his way to the end zone and earning every yard to keep the Saints playoff hopes alive. He'll have a tough draw against the Eagles next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 5. [NO - TE Taysom Hill scores in win](=) Source: 1 No Source New Orleans Saints TE [Taysom Hill](=) took nine carries for 56 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown in the Week 16 win over the Cleveland Browns. He didn't see a target or a pass attempt. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] As expected, Hill was a handful for the Browns to tackle in the cold, and he ran through multiple Cleveland defenders on the way to the end zone for his score. He'll be a riskier tight end play next week at Philadelphia. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 6. [NYG - Big day for WR Isaiah Hodgins](=) Source: 1 No Source New York Giants WR [Isaiah Hodgins](=) recorded eight receptions for 89 yards and a touchdown in the Week 16 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He saw 11 targets in the loss. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Hodgins career has found new life with his old offensive coordinator on a team that hasn't gotten much out of any of the receivers projected to start at the beginning of the season. He'll be worth a what-the-heck flex start against the Colts next week and shouldn't be on any dynasty waiver wires. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 7. [CAR - DJ Moore productive in Week 16]() Source: NFL.com Carolina Panthers WR DJ Moore caught five passes for 83 yards and one touchdown against the Detroit Lions in Week 16. He was targeted seven times during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Moore was a strong play this week as Sam Darnold getting on the field has been good for his fantasy prospects. He'll be lineups as a WR3/Flex against the Bucs next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 8. [TEN - Malik Willis scores rushing TD](=) Source: 1 No Source Tennessee Titans QB [Malik Willis](=) completed 14-of-23 passes for 99 passing yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions in the Week 16 loss to the Houston Texans. He added seven carries for 49 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Willis is a good running quarterback, but he is so limited as a passer that he has no fantasy value in typical 1QB leagues. The Titans playoff hopes will depend on his ability to beat the Jaguars in Week 18. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 9. [CIN - Ja'Marr Chase targeted 11 times](=) Source: ESPN Cincinnati Bengals WR Ja'Marr Chase finished with eight receptions for 79 yards and 11 targets with one fumble lost in Week 16 against the New England Patriots. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Chase's fumble almost cost the Bengals the game, and he wasn't an impact player during the game even though his result was acceptable in PPR leagues. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 10. [NYG - QB Daniel Jones posts 334 yards](=) Source: 1 No Source New York Giants QB [Daniel Jones](=) completed 30-of-42 passes for 334 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the Week 16 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He added four carries for 34 rushing yards. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Jones wasn't the reason the Giants lost today. He continues to manufacture plays in the passing game with a set of starting receivers that might not even get snaps for some teams. The Giants are still on the inside track for a wild card spot and can clinch with a win against the Colts next week. Jones will be a suitable streamer in Week 17. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 11. [DET - DJ Chark surpasses 100-yard mark]() Source: NFL.com Detroit Lions WR DJ Chark Jr. caught four passes for 108 yards against the Carolina Panthers in Week 16. He was targeted five times during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Chark bounced back with a big game after his role in the passing game appeared to be slipping last week. He'll be a what-the-heck flex next week against Chicago and has done enough on his prove-it deal to get a multi-year deal in free agency next year. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 12. [CLE - 102 total yards for RB Nick Chubb](=) Source: 1 No Source Cleveland Browns RB [Nick Chubb](=) carried the ball 24 times for 92 rushing yards in the Week 16 loss to the New Orleans Saints. He also added one reception for 10 receiving yards. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Chubb ground out a lot of tough yards, but didn't break free and was mostly held in check. Deshaun Watson getting on the field hasn't been the boost for the offense and Chubb's value that some hoped it would be. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 13. [MIN - WR Justin Jefferson erupts in win](=) Source: 1 No Source Minnesota Vikings WR [Justin Jefferson](=) recorded 12 receptions for 133 receiving yards and a touchdown in the Week 16 win over the New York Giants. He was tied for the team-high with 16 targets. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Jefferson is still on pace for a 2000-yard receiving season, which would be the first in NFL history. He has proven to be worth the top-five pick it took to land him, and he should be the #1 pick in a lot of drafts next year. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 14. [DET - Three touchdowns for QB Jared Goff]() Source: NFL.com Detroit Lions QB [Jared Goff](=) went 25-for-42 for 355 yards and three touchdowns against the Carolina Panthers in Week 16. He also rushed for 15 yards on three carries during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Goff was playing from behind for most of the game as his defense couldn't stop the Panthers running game and spotted them a big lead. Goff was huge for fantasy teams that relied on him, and he'll be a great play against the Bears at home indoors fighting to stay in the playoff picture next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 15. [KC - Isiah Pacheco plays well in Week 16](=) Source: NFL.com Kansas City Chiefs RB [Isiah Pacheco](=) rushed for 58 yards on 14 carries against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16. He also caught one pass for 32 yards during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Pacheco didn't get as much work as you'd expect in a game the Chiefs controlled, but his long catch and run on a short pass helped salvage something for fantasy teams that were hoping for a touchdown and 20+ carries. Pacheco is a solid RB2 next week against the Chiefs. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 16. [NYG - RB Saquon Barkley explodes in loss](=) Source: 1 No Source New York Giants RB [Saquon Barkley](=) took 14 carries for 84 rushing yards and a rushing touchdown in the Week 16 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He added eight receptions for 49 receiving yards on 10 targets. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Barkley was more involved as a receiver today and scored a game-tying touchdown late to help fantasy teams that relied on him. He's coming on at the right time with the Colts up next. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 17. [DET - D'Andre Swift held to 25 total yards]() Source: NFL.com Detroit Lions RB D'Andre Swift rushed for 12 yards on four carries against the Carolina Panthers in Week 16. He also caught one pass for 13 yards during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The Lions didn't use Swift a lot even though they trailed for most of the game and Jamaal Williams got banged up. After a very strong start to the season, Swift has become unreliable for fantasy even though he appears to be healthy now. He's just a what-the-heck flex next week against Chicago. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 18. [TEN - RB Derrick Henry continues dominance](=) Source: 1 No Source Tennessee Titans RB [Derrick Henry](=) took 23 carries for 126 rushing yards and a touchdown in the Week 16 loss to the Houston Texans. He added two receptions on two targets for zero receiving yards. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Henry was great, but his teammates gave him no help, so the Week 18 game against the Jaguars will now decide the AFC South. The Titans play against Dallas on Thursday in a game that might be meaningless for both teams. Henry has been a big success for fantasy despite a few rough patches and should be carrying some teams to the finals. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 19. [BUF - TE Dawson Knox gets into the end zone](=) Source: ESPN Buffalo Bills TE [Dawson Knox](=) posted three grabs for 38 yards and a touchdown on five targets in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. He has scored a touchdown in three consecutive contests. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Knox defied the weather to be a good play in the wind and cold at Chicago. He's red hot for fantasy right now and should be in lineups against the Bengals next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 20. [CAR - RB Chuba Hubbard rushes for 125 yards]() Source: NFL.com Carolina Panthers RB [Chuba Hubbard](=) rushed for 125 yards on 12 carries against the Detroit Lions in Week 16. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Hubbard got free time after time on his runs and was a hit as a what-the-heck flex even though he didn't score or catch a pass. He's still only a desperation play against the Bucs next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 21. [ATL - Drake London flirts with triple digits](=) Source: ESPN Atlanta Falcons WR [Drake London](=) posted seven catches for a game-high 96 yards on nine targets in Week 16 against the Baltimore Ravens. It wasn't all good, however, as the rookie was charged with a lost fumble. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] London changed to having bare arms in the cold after his fumble and made some highly skilled catches to give a hint of what he'll be able to do with a better passing quarterback in the future. He's a solid WR3/Flex play against Arizona next week and his dynasty value is a sleeping giant. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 22. [BUF - James Cook just short of triple digits](=) Source: ESPN Buffalo Bills RB [James Cook](=) rushed 11 times for 99 yards and a touchdown in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears, and he added a 9-yard reception on two targets. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Cook's fresh rookie legs were apparent as he sliced and diced the Bears run defense on a very successful afternoon for the Bills running game. He'll be a what-the-heck flex against the Bengals next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 23. [BUF - RB Devin Singletary hits triple digits](=) Source: ESPN Buffalo Bills RB [Devin Singletary](=) rushed 12 times for a game-high 106 yards and a touchdown in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears, while adding two receptions for 19 yards on three targets. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Singletary was part of a strong Bills running game coming online just in time for the stretch run and postseason. He'll be a flexworthy play against the Bengals next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 24. [SEA - Kenneth Walker surpasses 100-yard mark]() Source: NFL.com Seattle Seahawks RB Kenneth Walker III rushed for 107 yards on 26 carries against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 16. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The Seahawks curiously didn't try to get Walker going until the second half. He responded with multiple good runs, but the offense couldn't finish drives and fell well short in this one. Walker should be a much more reliable play next week after performing with minimal practice this week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 25. [BUF - WR Gabe Davis best of the lot in Week 16](=) Source: ESPN Buffalo Bills WR [Gabe Davis](=) registered three receptions for a team-high 45 yards and a touchdown on six targets in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears, although he was also charged with a lost fumble. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Davis scored early and fared better than Stefon Diggs, but he still wasn't a fantasy difference-maker on a tough afternoon for the pass. He's more desperation play than what-the-heck flex heading into a matchup with the tough Bengals pass defense. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 26. [KC - QB Patrick Mahomes accounts for three TDs](=) Source: NFL.com Kansas City Chiefs QB [Patrick Mahomes](=) went 16-for-28 for 224 yards and two touchdowns against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16. He also rushed for eight yards and one touchdown on two carries during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Mahomes had a solid game in the bitter cold. His diving rushing touchdown was another career highlight as he used his hand to stay inbounds and vault himself towards the pylon. He could be on his way to another MVP and still has a lot to play for with the #1 seed still up for grabs. The Broncos will try to slow him down next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 27. [PHI - WR DeVonta Smith explodes for two scores](=) Source: 1 No Source Philadelphia Eagles WR [DeVonta Smith](=) recorded eight receptions for 113 receiving yards and two touchdowns in the Week 16 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He led the offense with 12 targets. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Smith was all over the field with a productive day helping new QB Gardner Minshew. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 28. [BUF - WR Stefon Diggs limited to two receptions](=) Source: ESPN Buffalo Bills WR [Stefon Diggs](=) finished with two receptions and just 26 yards on two targets in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Diggs was a dud because of the conditions, but it wasn't crazy to play him as Josh Allen did have some success throwing the ball in the win. If your fantasy team survived Diggs damaging result, you'll get to play him against the Broncos next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 29. [CIN - QB Joe Burrow well over 300 passing yards](=) Source: ESPN Cincinnati Bengals RB [Joe Burrow](=) completed 40-of-52 passes for 375 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 16 against the New England Patriots, and he added four runs for five yards. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] The Bengals put most of the offense on Burrow's shoulders, and he responded, although it took a stop from their defense inside the 10 to secure the win. Burrow has arrived as a strong fantasy QB1 and he'll be tested against the Bills next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 30. [CIN - WR Tee Higgins has strong game in Week 16](=) Source: ESPN Cincinnati Bengals WR [Tee Higgins](=) registered eight receptions for 128 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in Week 16 against the New England Patriots. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Higgins was the better play of the top two Bengals receivers and he appears to be over his hamstring issue. He's unbenchable against the Bills next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 31. [CAR - D'Onta Foreman has outstanding performance]() Source: NFL.com Carolina Panthers RB D'Onta Foreman rushed for 165 yards and one touchdown on 21 carries against the Detroit Lions in Week 16. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Foreman was a shocking Week 16 stud, as the Lions run defense had been shutting down everyone they faced for over a month. He'll still be only a what-the-heck flex next week in a huge game with the Bucs, another good run defense, at least on paper. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 32. [CHI - QB Justin Fields finishes with just one TD](=) Source: ESPN Chicago Bears QB [Justin Fields](=) completed 15-of-23 passes for 119 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 16 against the Buffalo Bills, while running seven times for 11 yards. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Fields was a dud this week as he never got free as a runner, probably ending his chances of breaking Lamar Jackson's single-season rushing record for a quarterback, something Fields said last week that he wanted to go for. He'll still be a high-ceiling QB1 play at Detroit next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 33. [BUF - QB Josh Allen accounts for three touchdowns](=) Source: ESPN Buffalo Bills QB [Josh Allen](=) completed 15-of-26 passes for 172 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions in Week 16 against the Chicago Bears, and he also added 41 rushing yards and a score on six attempts. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Allen had some ups and downs, but lived up to his reputation as the ultimate cold-weather quarterback in the win. He was able to post a strong fantasy result and help his team stay in the #1 seed. A showdown with the Bengals is up next. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 34. [CAR - QB Sam Darnold finishes with two touchdowns]() Source: NFL.com Carolina Panthers QB [Sam Darnold](=) went 15-for-22 for 250 yards and one touchdown against the Detroit Lions in Week 16. He also rushed for 19 yards and one touchdown on six carries during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Darnold was a fantasy hit in an unlikely game to come through because the Panthers running backs dominated the Lions. The Panthers are still alive in the NFC South race with a showdown at Tampa Bay up next week, and Darnold has some value as a 2QB/Superflex option. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 35. [CIN - RB Joe Mixon over 100 total scrimmage yards](=) Source: ESPN Cincinnati Bengals RB [Joe Mixon](=) rushed 16 times for 65 yards in Week 16 against the New England Patriots, while adding seven receptions for 43 yards on nine targets. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Mixon did more for fantasy teams as a receiver than he did as a runner, but you'll take it. Samaje Perine was strong while Mixon was out, but he hasn't forced a committee, so Mixon is still a strong RB2 play against the Bills next week. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 36. [KC - TE Travis Kelce a big factor in passing game](=) Source: NFL.com Kansas City Chiefs TE [Travis Kelce](=) caught six passes for 113 yards against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16. He was targeted eight times during the game. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Kelce was quiet in the first half but got free in the second half a few times to once again lead the pack at tight end in fantasy leagues. A lot of teams that took him in the first round will be advancing to fantasy championships. [Back to Top](#top) --------------------------------------------------------------- [] 37. [CHI - RB David Montgomery totals 84 scrimmage yards](=) Source: ESPN Chicago Bears RB [David Montgomery](=) rushed 16 times for 62 yards in Week 16 against the Buffalo Bills, while adding four receptions for 22 yards on four targets and he had a lost fumble, too. [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] Montgomery's workload wasn't affected too much by the return of Khalil Herbert, but it was only an adequate result as the Bears offense was shut down by the Bills in the cold. Montgomery will be a solid RB2 play against a Lions run defense that is ailing after the Panthers gashed them all day today.
