Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow completed 24 of his 31 pass attempts for 305 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 17 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He also rushed for two yards and took three sacks. Burrow played turnover-free football and earned the win for the second week in a row. During that two-game span, he has 614 passing yards and six touchdowns. Outside of an ugly loss to the Ravens, the former No. 1 pick has been playing at an elite level despite Cincinnati being eliminated from playoff contention. It doesn't seem like the Bengals will rest any key starters against the Browns next Sunday, so Burrow should continue to be viewed as a strong fantasy QB1 with all of his top weapons at his disposal.

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart completed 22 of his 30 pass attempts for 207 passing yards during Sunday's Week 17 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He also rushed for 48 yards, took two sacks, and didn't turn over the football. The rookie didn't score any touchdowns through the air, but he did add two rushing touchdowns. Dart continues to showcase an impressive tendency to scamper into the end zone; he has 13 passing touchdowns and nine rushing touchdowns through 11 games. The Ole Miss product's willingness to put his body on the line for big plays will always cause managers to hold their breath, but you can't argue with the results so far. Dart has been one of the best rushing quarterbacks in the NFL this year, and he could make a late push for Rookie of the Year while scoring touchdowns and limiting turnovers. It doesn't look like New York will rest any key starters in Week 18, so Dart should be a low-end fantasy QB1 with all of the Giants' top weapons at his disposal.

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith (ankle) exited during the fourth quarter of Sunday's Week 17 loss against the New York Giants. He was initially listed as questionable before being downgraded to out. The veteran signal-caller finished this game with a 71.4% completion rate, 176 passing yards, one passing touchdown, and two interceptions. He also took three sacks. Smith entered this game with the most interceptions in the NFL, and his total only grew prior to his early exit. He has been one of the lowest-scoring fantasy quarterbacks in 2025, keeping him on the waiver wire in most leagues. Smith, who injured himself while tackling on a Giants interception return, wouldn't be a reliable fantasy option against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 18, even if he's cleared to play.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee, ankle) is officially active for Sunday Night Football against the Chicago Bears in Week 17. He had been listed as questionable but was trending in the right direction ahead of kickoff. Having Pearsall available is key for the 49ers, who will be without George Kittle (ankle) on Sunday night. While Kittle is irreplaceable, Pearsall's return from a one-game absence fills a significant void in the passing game. He should handle a heavy dose of targets alongside Jauan Jennings and Jake Tonges. As it stands, Pearsall ranks as a mid-range WR3/flex against a Bears defense allowing the fifth-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore (illness) is officially active for Sunday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 17. He had been listed as questionable after the Bears added him to the injury report on Sunday morning. There had been some concern about his status, but in the end, he was able to shake the illness and feels healthy enough to play. Moore has impressed lately with nine catches, 166 yards, and three touchdowns over his last two games. He played a major role in last week's win over the Packers, highlighted by a big game-winning touchdown catch in overtime. This week, Moore and Luther Burden III will operate as some of Caleb Williams' top targets with Rome Odunze (foot) and Olamide Zaccheaus (illness) ruled out. The 28-year-old is a solid WR2 option in fantasy football.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus (illness) is inactive for Sunday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 17. He had been listed as questionable after the Bears added him to the injury report on Sunday morning. The late addition created plenty of concern about his status, and in the end, he won't be able to suit up. This is a significant loss for the Bears, who had already ruled out wide receiver Rome Odunze. With Zaccheaus and Odunze sidelined, Caleb Williams should target DJ Moore and Luther Burden III more often. Moore is a strong WR2, while Burden can be deployed as a solid WR3/flex. Meanwhile, Zaccheaus is droppable in most redraft leagues, since he'll likely be the Bears' No. 4 wide receiver upon his return.

Dynasty | Ravens running back Derrick Henry had 216 rushing yards and four touchdowns in a win against Green Bay. Dynasty Analysis: And with that, anyone with Henry in their fantasy lineup during championship week was immediately rewarded. After starting out slowly, the King is now up to 1,469 rushing yards and has matched his career high with 16 scores. With Baltimore still in the playoff mix, expect him to have a great chance to set a new mark next week. His dynasty value can't really go up based on his age but it's clear he just isn't slowing down yet, despite being 31.

From Dynasty League Fantasy

Dynasty | Packers quarterback Malik Willis completed 18-of-21 passes for 288 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions, adding 60 rushing yards and two more scores in a loss to the Ravens. Dynasty Analysis: The Packers lost the game because they couldn't tackle Derrick Henry, not because Willis played poorly. In fact, Willis looked the part of a starting quarterback in the NFL and has likely earned some consideration by teams to be signed and compete for a starting job this off-season. As such, he makes for a solid addition to the back end of a dynasty roster if he's still available.

Dynasty | Packers running back Josh Jacobs had just three rushing yards, one catch and no receiving yards in a loss to the Ravens. Dynasty Analysis: Seriously? Dynasty managers have to be fuming as Jacobs was healthy enough to suit up but clearly wasn't used in his norma role. The Packers were playing from behind most of the game and that didn't help but this performance likely sunk a lot of teams in championship week. Jacobs will still be a RB1 going into the off-season but this one stung.

From Dynasty League Fantasy

Dynasty | Chargers rookie running back Omarion Hampton had 29 rushing yards, eight catches, 31 receiving yards and a touchdown in a loss to the Texans. Dynasty Analysis: The yardage totals aren't much to write home about but the eight catches and touchdown were more than enough to make Hampton a viable play in championship week. There are still questions about his ability to truly be a featured franchise runner but he's put up some solid performances this season. He'll be an interesting buy this off-season for those who believe he hasn't really tapped into his true potential.

Dynasty | Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet had 110 rushing yards, two catches, 12 receiving yards, and two touchdowns in a win against Carolina. Dynasty Analysis: There are things that are clear as this season comes to a close. First, both Charbonnet and Kenneth Walker are good running backs. Second, Charbonnet fits Seattle's offense better. It really is that simple as the Seahawks have seemed more than content giving Charbonnet the "money" carries most of the season. With Walker an impending free agent, the dynasty window to buy on Charbonnet is closing quickly.

Dynasty | Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 19-of-21 passes for 256 yards with five touchdowns, 22 additional rushing yards and no interceptions in a blowout win over the Jets. Dynasty Analysis: Any questions? Maye now has over 4,000 yards with 30 touchdowns and just eight interceptions on the season, looking like a long-term QB1 and absolute franchise savior for the Patriots in the process. It seems Maye has mastered the offense in year two and just doesn't make mistakes you would expect from someone just 23 years old. His dynasty value is climbing and he really does look like the best quarterback from the loaded 2024 NFL Draft class. If you want to buy now, you won't get a discount.

Dynasty | Panthers rookie wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan had one catch for five yards in a loss to the Seahawks. Dynasty Analysis: This was brutal for dynasty managers as McMillan had score five times over his previous five games and looked the part of a true WR1 and lineup lock. Alas, it was not to be today as Seattle's defense held Carolina to just 54 passing yards and 139 total yards on offense. McMillan was one of many victims on the day. While he remains a solid receiver to build around in dynasty leagues, today will be one to forget.

From Dynasty League Fantasy

Dynasty | Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington had eight catches for 115 yards in a win against the Colts. Dynasty Analysis: And now it's getting interesting. Washington has 14 catches on 20 targets for 260 yards and a touchdown over the past two weeks. Travis Hunter is obviously not available but Washington has twice the number of targets as Brian Thomas Jr. over the same span and has clearly earned the trust of both the coaches and Trevor Lawrence in the process. We'll see what happens over the next few weeks as Jacksonville will be in the playoffs but Washington should be on rosters everywhere.

From Dynasty League Fantasy

Dynasty | Saints wide receiver Chris Olave had eight catches for 119 yards and a touchdown in a win against the Titans. Dynasty Analysis: Olave now has over 1,000 yards, 100 catches, and nine scores in a season worthy of being the NFL Comeback Player of the Year. In short, he's had a career year. The Saints now look like absolute geniuses by exercising his fifth year option prior to the season, keeping in New Orleans through at least next year. Olave has re-established himself as a WR1 and while his concussion history is sure to dampen his dynasty ranking a touch, he's been fantastic all year.

From Dynasty League Fantasy

Dynasty | Browns quarterback Shedeur Sanders completed 17-of-23 passes for 186 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions in an upset win against the Steelers/ Dynasty Analysis: Sanders helped the Browns to an improbably win and should be given credit for that. However, he still looks pretty shaky in the pocket and his 7:10 touchdown-to-interception ratio isn't really setting the world on fire, either. Sanders will get one more chance next week to prove to Cleveland he should be their future at the position so we'll see how he fares at Cincinnati next week before predicting his fantasy future for the off-season.

Dynasty | Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr did not catch his only target in a loss to the Bengals. Dynasty Analysis: Jacoby Brissett threw the ball 37 times and targeted Harrison one time. One. Harrison now has a 41/608/4 line in 11 games on the season, making him easily one of the year's biggest disappointments. While he's clearly been dealing with some nagging injuries and a different quarterback, Michael Wilson simply looks like a better receiver. Harrison's value is starting to fade and it's a serious concern in dynasty circles.

From Dynasty League Fantasy

Dynasty | Cardinals tight end Trey McBride caught ten passes for 76 yards and a touchdown in a loss to the Bengals. Dynasty Analysis: The Cardinals have endured yet another disappointing season but McBride can't be to blame. After all, he now has an NFL record 119 catches on the season, most ever for a tight end in league history. Now with 11 touchdowns and nearly 1,200 yards, it seems it's Brock Bowers, Trey McBride and everyone else at the position moving forward in dynasty leagues. Don't bother in trying to trade for him - it won't work.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 17 contest against the Chicago Bears. He had been listed as questionable, but the odds were stacked against him after he missed all three practices this past week. The 49ers left the door open for him to play, but after Kittle tested his ankle during pre-game warmups, the team decided to hold him out. It's a crushing blow for managers who were hoping to have the star tight end available as the fantasy playoffs continue. Instead, Jake Tonges will operate as the 49ers' top tight end. He's a viable replacement on Sunday Night Football, but his ceiling and floor are both lower than Kittle's. Tonges will rank as a fringe top-12 fantasy tight end in his pass-catching role behind wide receivers Jauan Jennings and Ricky Pearsall.

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith (ankle) is questionable to return for Sunday's game against the New York Giants due to an ankle injury that he suffered in the fourth quarter after limping off the field. The fact that the Giants have a double-digit lead in the final quarter likely means that Smith is done for the day. He completed 20 of 28 passing attempts for 176 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions before leaving this contest. Backup Kenny Pickett will take over under center and could potentially start in Week 18 against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs if Smith is unable to play. Smith's season ending early due to injury would be a fitting end to a dismal first year in Las Vegas.
