Los Angeles Chargers running back J.K. Dobbins had an average game in a Week 18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Dobbins went up against a tough Raiders run defense and carried the ball 18 times, gaining 63 yards with a long of 10. He was also targeted three times in the passing game, coming up with three catches for 12 yards. Dobbins couldn't find a ton of room to run, and the Chargers gave backup Hassan Haskins a dozen carries likely to keep Dobbins fresh for next week's playoff opener against the Houston Texans.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Hassan Haskins scored a touchdown in a Week 18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Haskins ran the ball 12 times, gaining 33 yards. He wasn't targeted in the passing game. His touchdown came on a two-yard run near the end of the fourth quarter. With the Chargers mostly in control of the game late, Haskins was able to get some more run while starter J.K. Dobbins, who got 18 carries, was able to rest. The Chargers next game will be a Wild Card playoff matchup against the Houston Texans, where Haskins is unlikely to repeat his dozen carries.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray threw for a season-high four touchdown passes in the 47-24 win over the San Francisco 49ers in the regular season finale. Murray had perhaps his best outing of the season, finishing with 25 completions on 35 attempts for 242 yards and four touchdowns. He also added three carries for 22 yards on the ground, ending the season on a high note and building momentum going into next year. This is big for the Cardinals' offense and Murray as they look to continue improving under head coach Jonathan Gannon. Murray and the Cardinals' passing game should have confidence as they aim to break through and make the playoffs next season.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston had a career game in a Week 18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Johnston led the team in targets, catches, and yards, all by a significant margin. He was targeted 14 times, making 13 catches for 186 yards. It was the second 100+ yard game of his career. He was the focal point of the offense, as no other Charger made more than five catches. It was an excellent game for "QJ" and he'll look to keep the momentum going on Saturday when the Bolts face the Houston Texans in the first round of the playoffs.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert had a big game to close out the regular season in a Week 18 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Herbert completed 28 of his 36 pass attempts for 346 yards and two touchdowns. He also added 42 yards on the ground on four carries. Herbert had a long run of 41 yards that almost ended in a touchdown but was able to make one of his two touchdown passes right after to score the six points. That touchdown went to Will Dissly, and his other one went to D.J. Chark. Herbert took only one sack, losing 10 yards on the play. He and the Bolts will face the Texans on Saturday in the Wild Card Round.

San Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver Ricky Pearsall followed last week's breakout game with another strong showing in Sunday's 47-24 Week 18 loss to the Cardinals in Arizona. The Arizona native caught six of eight targets for 69 yards, including a six-yard touchdown grab on a contested slant pattern from backup quarterback Joshua Dobbs. Pearsall, who started his 49ers career on a terrifying note -- being shot in the chest during an armed robbery attempt -- had an up-and-down year once he debuted in Week 7. Pearsall produced four fantasy-useful performances in 2024 but seven in which he was held below six half-PPR points. With momentum and the validation of his first-round pedigree this season, Pearsall could be an intriguing late-round fantasy pick in 2025 depending on the health of Brandon Aiyuk's knee, and if Pearsall can move past Jauan Jennings and/or Deebo Samuel Sr. in the 49ers' hierarchy.

New England Patriots tight end Austin Hooper caught four of his six targets for 27 yards during Sunday's Week 18 win over the Buffalo Bills. The veteran tight end handled an increased workload in the regular-season finale, playing 67.2 percent of the Patriots' offensive snaps with Hunter Henry (foot) sidelined. The 30-year-old finished as a low-end TE2 in fantasy football this season with 45 catches, 476 yards, and three touchdowns. Hooper was a pleasant surprise during his first year in New England, maintaining a significant role on offense despite being listed second on the depth chart behind Henry. He's slated to hit free agency in March but could be a priority re-signing for the Patriots' next coaching regime.

New England Patriots kicker Joey Slye went 2-for-2 on extra points and 3-for-3 on field goals during Sunday's Week 18 win over the Buffalo Bills. He converted field goals from 41, 42, and 50 yards out. The 28-year-old finished as a top-24 fantasy kicker this season, demonstrating impressive power but dealing with accuracy issues and handling reduced opportunities on a Patriots team that struggled to score points. All in all, he finished the 2024 campaign with 95.8 percent accuracy on extra points and 78.8 percent accuracy on field goals. This season was far from a disaster, and Slye did provide more stability in 2024 than Chad Ryland did as a rookie with the Patriots in 2023. Still, the Patriots may look to bring in a different kicker as they head into the 2025 campaign. Slye is slated to hit free agency in March.

New York Jets kicker Greg Joseph made his lone field-goal attempt and added three extra points in a 32-20 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 18. Joseph was signed off of the Jets' practice squad earlier in the week and hit all of his kicks in the season finale. New York opened the season with Greg Zuerlein as their kicker, but he struggled with injuries and accuracy issues throughout the season. That being said, he is still under contract for one more season so he is likely to open 2025 as the Jets' kicker once again, leaving Joseph to pursue work elsewhere this offseason.

The New York Jets defense played well in a 32-20 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 18. New York forced four turnovers and notched four sacks in the high-scoring win over their division rivals. The Jets intercepted Tyler Huntley twice and also recovered two fumbles in the contest. They were led by Ashtyn Davis, who had both of their interceptions. Overall the Jets defense was a disappointment in 2024 but they at least were able to finish the season on a positive note.

Dynasty | Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert 28-of-36 passes for 346 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in a win against the Raiders. Dynasty Analysis: Herbert ends the year with 23 touchdown passes and just under 4,000 yards. While his numbers aren't gaudy, the one that should stick out is three - that's the total number of interceptions he threw on the season. It was an unbelievably efficient year from Herbert, who did more in Jim Harbaugh's offense than anyone could have imagined in year one. With Ladd McConkey emerging and the promise of more talent on the way, Herbert is clearly a "buy low" in dynasty leagues this off-season.

Dynasty | Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston caught 13-of-14 targets for 186 yards in a win against the Raiders. Dynasty Analysis: Those are career highs in terms of catches and yards for Johnston. While this season was certainly one of highs and lows for Johnston, he clearly ended on a high note. After a lost rookie season, Johnston's dynasty ADP has been on a steady climb and while we still need to see more, the "bust" label seems to have at least gone away for the time being.

Dynasty | Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte caught seven passes for 117 yards and scored a touchdown in a win against the Bills. Dynasty Analysis: The Patriots ruined their draft choice (they moved from 1-4) by winning and can lay a lot of blame on Boutte. The former LSU standout really came on strong with 43 catches, 589 yards and three touchdowns this season, with most of that damage coming in the second half of the year. While there is still a lot work to do before claiming Boutte as being someone who has truly arrived, he clearly belongs on dynasty rosters moving forward.

Dynasty | Jaguars rookie wide receiver Brian Thomas had seven catches for 103 yards in a loss against the Colts. Dynasty Analysis: Well, that'll work. Thomas ends the season with 87 catches for 1,282 yards and ten touchdowns. When you consider how bad the Jaguars season really was, this is borderline ridiculous. Thomas did nothing but prove he's a future superstar this season and is going to enter the off-season as one of the most coveted wide receivers in dynasty leagues. If you didn't draft him last year, good luck getting him now.

Dynasty | Titans quarterback Will Levis completed 9-of-17 passes for 175 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions in a loss against Houston. Dynasty Analysis: Levis finishes the season with 2,091 passing yards, with 13 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. Unfortunately for him, the loss was combined with a Patriots win, giving the Titans the top pick in the NFL Draft. At this point, it seems more than likely the Titans use that pick to replace him at quarterback, with Cam Ward and Shedeur Sanders topping the list of candidates. Levis has been fine this year at times, but has really looked more like a backup than a franchise savior and today's events won't help his dynasty value.

Dynasty | Packers wide receiver Christian Watson was carted off the field in a loss against the Bears. Dynasty Analysis: Yikes. Watson endured a non-contact knee injury and left the field in tears. We've all seen this happen before and likely can't remember a case where the outcome has been good. Chances are Watson has sustained a significant knee injury and will be lost not only for the playoffs, but for much of 2025 as well. He's had some trouble staying healthy in the past, but this injury has the looks of the most significant of his career. We'll wait to evaluate his dynasty value moving forward, but this doesn't look good.

New York Jets wide receiver Allen Lazard caught all three of his targets for 71 yards and a touchdown in a 32-20 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 18. Lazard brought in a 13-yard touchdown pass from Aaron Rodgers in the second quarter, giving him six in what was a bounceback season for him after he caught just one score last season. Lazard is under contract for two more seasons after he signed a four-year, $44 million contract before the 2023 season.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Alexander Mattison rushed for 20 yards on six carries during Sunday's Week 18 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He also caught four of his five targets for an additional 11 yards through the air. It appeared that Mattison was headed for an increased workload on Sunday with Ameer Abdullah (foot) sidelined, but instead, the Raiders somewhat abandoned the rushing attack. Vegas' running backs combined for just eight carries, and quarterback Aidan O'Connell added four rushes of his own. Mattison may have salvaged his performance in PPR leagues, but for the most part, his showing on Sunday left a lot to be desired. The 26-year-old will hit free agency in a few months, leaving the Raiders with some combination of Sincere McCormick, Zamir White, Dylan Laube, and Chris Collier. Las Vegas has numerous holes on both sides of the ball, but don't be surprised if they look to improve their backfield with draft picks, free agency spending, or both.

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin caught two of his three targets for 16 yards and a touchdown in a 32-20 win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 18. Conklin made his way into history books as he was on the receiving end of the 500th touchdown pass of Aaron Rodgers' career in the second quarter. The veteran tight end was quietly productive in 2024, finishing with 51 catches for 449 yards and four touchdowns in 16 games. Conklin is now slated to become an unrestricted free-agent this offseason and should have little trouble finding work with four straight 50-catch seasons under his belt.

Per head coach Kyle Shanahan, San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo (knee, ankle) has likely picked up an MCL sprain but will undergo more testing on Monday to confirm the severity of the injury. Matt Barrows of The Athletic reported the news. That'd be a best-case scenario for the rookie, who was carted off in the first quarter of his team's 47-24 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Guerendo was bent up awkwardly not even two minutes into the contest and quickly ruled out afterward. San Francisco has been unable to keep a running back healthy this season, as they've had four suffer serious injuries. It's been a disappointing year for the 49ers -- a team with Super Bowl aspirations that won't make a playoff appearance in 2024 after a campaign riddled with injuries. They'll hope for better in 2025.
