Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney recorded just two catches for 24 yards in Week 16, continuing a trend of disappointing performances that has persisted throughout the season. The 28-year-old has caught two or fewer passes in eight of the 13 games he's played this season, and has struggled to gain targets behind Drake London (knee), Kyle Pitts Sr. (knee), and Bijan Robinson. London heads into Week 17's home matchup against the Rams with a questionable designation, however, it would likely be more of a benefit to Kyle Pitts Sr. and David Sills V's target total if Atlanta's No. 1 receiver were to miss the game, not Mooney's. The veteran wideout is a risky play even in what appears to be a good matchup on paper, with Los Angeles allowing the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers on the season and 277.7 yards passing over the last three weeks (second most in the NFL).

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (knee) was a non-factor in Week 16 after returning from a four-game absence, tallying just three receptions for 27 scoreless yards while playing just 69 percent of the team's offensive snaps. The 24-year-old was limited in practice all week and takes a questionable designation into Monday night's game versus the Rams. Because he has a Monday night game, there is some risk in planning to play him in the event he does not suit up, but as long as he does play, fantasy managers should be putting him in their lineups, as he still received eight targets last week despite his limited production. The 6-foot-4 wideout has recorded at least eight targets in nine of the ten games he's played this season, and had gone over 100 yards receiving in five of his last six prior to Week 16's dud. He'll go up against a Rams defense that has yielded the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers for the season and 277.7 yards per game through the air over the last three weeks (second-most). In a Monday Night Football game that has a high over/under of 49.5 and the Falcons as 7.5-point underdogs, Atlanta may need to air it out, but with some uncertainty around the knee and plenty of other receiving options on this team, London projects as a low-end WR1 this week.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier tied a season high with 16 rush attempts last week, totaling 79 yards on the ground (4.9 yards per rush). Without recording a touchdown, though, and recording one catch for negative six yards left him with a disappointing line for fantasy. Although the 25-year-old has eight touchdowns on the season, he's very susceptible to quiet outings and has not scored in three consecutive games now. It could be tough sledding in Week 17's Monday night home matchup against the Rams, a defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs and just 92.7 rush yards per game over the last three weeks (fifth-fewest). As 7.5-point underdogs, the Falcons may need to take to the air, which could limit Allgeier's potential involvement, so he'll once again be a risky Flex play in what is likely the championship round for season-long fantasy managers.

Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams is coming off a stellar Week 16 performance, totaling 250 passing yards and two touchdowns, plus 30 rushing yards, in the thrilling overtime victory over the Green Bay Packers. Alongside head coach Ben Johnson, Williams has led the Bears to an 11-4 record and could clinch the NFC North with a Week 17 win and a Packers loss. He faces the San Francisco 49ers in Week 17, who have allowed the 11th-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. In Week 16, the 49ers defense allowed 44-year-old quarterback Philip Rivers to total 277 passing yards and two touchdowns. With good weather expected, Williams offers upside as a QB2 against this injury-plagued 49ers defense.

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Luther Burden III (ankle) is off the injury report and good to go in Week 17 against the San Francisco 49ers. Burden suffered an ankle injury in Week 15, which caused him to exit that game in the first half and miss last week's thrilling win over the Green Bay Packers. With Burden back in the lineup, he has an opportunity to produce and potentially win fantasy championships this week. Rome Odunze has been ruled out once again, and Burden has been a force with him out, averaging over 75 receiving yards in games Odunze is out. He also faces a 49ers secondary that has struggled against the pass this season. Their injuries have played a significant role, and with three cornerbacks ruled out this week, look for Burden and the Bears to unleash on this secondary. Burden is a high-upside WR3 in Week 17.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Bears wide receiver D.J. Moore stole the show in Week 16's thrilling victory over the Green Bay Packers. Moore hauled in five of seven targets for 97 yards and the game-winning 46-yard touchdown. With both Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden III (ankle) inactive last week, Moore played his highest snap count of the season and set season highs in yards and targets. In the last two weeks, Moore has totaled 166 yards and three touchdowns in games where Odunze was out. He faces a 49ers defense that has allowed the 14th-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. With their secondary banged up entering Week 17, Moore has another opportunity to perform as the WR1 in the Bears offense.

Chicago Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai was efficient in the 22-16 overtime victory over the division rival Green Bay Packers. Monangai had nine carries for 50 yards and added 43 receiving yards on three catches, his best receiving output of the 2025 season. Monangai has had double-digit attempts in six straight games and has earned a consistent role alongside D'Andre Swift. He faces a San Francisco 49ers defense that has been average against running backs this season. The Bears are looking to clinch the NFC North and are expected to rely on the ground game in Weeks 17 and 18. Monangai offers FLEX value against the 49ers, depending on whether he finds the end zone.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift had 13 carries for 58 yards and added 12 yards on two receptions in the 22-16 overtime win over the Green Bay Packers. After lighting up the Cleveland Browns in Week 15, Swift struggled, posting his second-lowest fantasy output this season. With the Bears adopting an RB-by-committee approach featuring seventh-round rookie Kyle Monangai, Swift's production has been inconsistent in recent weeks. Swift and Monangai have been fairly split since the Week 5 bye, but with the Bears running the ball effectively under Ben Johnson, both backs carry fantasy value moving forward. He faces a 49ers defense that has ranked in the middle of the pack against the run this season. With the current landscape in this Bears backfield, Swift will be hit or miss in Week 17.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins has a 5:1 TD:INT over the last two weeks as he's focused his attention on the team's top playmakers rather than spreading the ball around. The 37-year-old may have to continue to air it out in Week 17 as the Falcons are 7.5-point underdogs for a Monday Night Football showdown against the Rams that has one of the higher expected point totals on the slate (49.5). It has been easier to throw on the Rams than to run it, too, with Los Angeles allowing the second-most yards per game through the air over the last three weeks (277.7) while yielding the fifth-fewest rush yards per game over that span (97.3). No. 1 wide receiver Drake London (knee) heads into the contest with a questionable tag, but if he were to miss the game, those targets would likely be divvied up between Kyle Pitts Sr., David Sills V, and Bijan Robinson. Despite some solid stats over the past couple of weeks, the 4x Pro Bowler shapes up as a low-end QB2 for MNF, albeit with some slight upside with all of the talented weapons at his disposal.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland hauled in three of five targets for 30 yards in the 22-16 overtime victory over the Green Bay Packers. Despite injuries to wide receivers Rome Odunze (foot) and Luther Burden III (ankle), Loveland failed to exceed expectations against the Packers. While Week 17 marked the first week since Week 9 that Loveland played more snaps than Cole Kmet, Kmet remains a significant factor in this Bears offense, playing 77% of the snaps last week. This 49ers defense has allowed the 11th-most fantasy points to tight ends this season, but injuries in the secondary could open doors for Loveland and the entire receiving core this week. The rookie tight end has been a bust this season due to limited usage in this offense, and once again, should not be trusted this week with fantasy championships on the line.

From RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. broke out over the last two weeks, combining for 18 catches on 21 targets that amounted to 223 yards and four touchdowns. He's now the second-highest scoring tight end in fantasy, and is arguably Kirk Cousins' favorite target since taking over for Michael Penix Jr. (knee). Drake London (knee) returned to action last week, but Pitts recorded more targets, catches, and yards than London as the team's No. 1 receiver played just 69 percent of the offensive snaps. London has been limited in practice all week and is officially questionable for MNF, while Pitts was a limited participant on Friday and Saturday, but carries no injury designation into the Week 17 contest. Assuming Pitts suits up, he'll take a Rams defense that is so-so defending tight ends, but it's also a defense that's yielded the second-most passing yards per game over their last three contests (277.7) and allowed Seattle's TE AJ Barner to catch four passes for 49 yards and a score in Week 16. The 6-foot-6 tight end projects as a high-end TE1 for Monday Night Football, and if London were to end up missing the game, it would be a boon to Pitts' potential target total.

From RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson is coming off the second straight week in which he's produced at least 168 total yards and a touchdown, currently sitting as a top-five running back in season-long fantasy. The 23-year-old even led the team with 11 targets in Week 16 despite the return of Drake London (knee). The work in the passing game provides the workhorse back with a high weekly floor, and he may need it in a Week 17 matchup against the Rams, who have limited opposing running backs to the fourth-fewest fantasy points this season, and are yielding just 97.3 rush yards per game over their last three (fifth-fewest). Expect the third-year pro to be heavily involved once again in a home game on Monday night, and with a high expected point total in this one (49.5), there should be plenty of scoring, making Robinson a high-end RB1 again in Week 17.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Kimani Vidal (neck) is inactive for Saturday's contest against the Houston Texans. The second-year running back exited their victory over the Cowboys last weekend with this injury. During the week, Vidal was unable to practice on Tuesday and Wednesday but made progress on Thursday, logging a limited session, suggesting he could be in the mix to return. However, the Chargers will lean on the side of caution and keep him on the sidelines this afternoon. As a result, managers should expect rookie running back Omarion Hampton to operate as the clear RB1 in the offense while Hassan Haskins serves as the change-of-pace option. Hampton should be started in all formats as a low-end RB1 given his projected workload despite facing a formidable Houston defense.

Indianapolis Colts tight end Tyler Warren has had a very solid rookie season overall in 2025, recording 66 catches for 748 yards and four touchdowns on 99 targets across 15 games. However, the 23-year-old has hit a dry spell of late, averaging just 2.8 receptions and 21.5 receiving yards per game over his last four contests. On the bright side, Warren has remained a featured pass-catcher in the two games since Philip Rivers has taken over as the starting quarterback in Indianapolis. Rivers has targeted Warren 15 times, including nine in Week 16 against the San Francisco 49ers. Still, Warren has turned those targets from Rivers into just six receptions for 49 yards. In Week 17, the Colts will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jacksonville has allowed some passing production this season, entering the week ranked 18th in the NFL in total passing yards allowed (3,492) and 27th in passing touchdowns allowed (26). Still, fantasy managers may find Warren difficult to trust given his recent lack of production. Overall, he profiles as a borderline fantasy TE1 in Week 17.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) is officially questionable for his team's Week 17 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night, per Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News. Adams aggravated a lingering hamstring injury in Week 15 against the Detroit Lions and has not played since. Previous reporting indicated that Los Angeles was considering shutting him down for the remainder of the regular season, so Adams could be trending towards being sidelined on Monday against Atlanta. If he remains out, Rams rookie wideout Konata Mumpfield would likely see an increase in playing time alongside superstar wide receiver Puka Nacua. If active, Adams would likely profile as a solid fantasy WR2. However, fantasy managers needing to make start/sit decisions on Sunday morning may not want to take the risk on Adams being available on Monday.

From RotoBaller

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce is coming off a big game in Week 16, recording four catches for 84 yards and two touchdowns on four targets against the San Francisco 49ers. The 25-year-old has been a big-play threat all season long for Indianapolis, averaging an NFL-best 20.3 yards per reception. Pierce's Week 16 performance alongside new Colts quarterback Philip Rivers is an encouraging sign after Pierce was targeted just once in Rivers' first start of 2025 in Week 15. However, as primarily a downfield threat, Pierce has a low production floor that fantasy managers need to take into account. In Week 17, Indianapolis will take on a Jacksonville Jaguars' defense that ranks 18th in the NFL in total passing yards allowed (3,492) and 27th in passing touchdowns allowed (26). Pierce was reasonably productive in his first matchup of the season against Jacksonville in Week 14, recording five catches for 80 yards on eight targets. All in all, Pierce profiles as a boom/bust flex option for fantasy managers in Week 17.

From RotoBaller

Tommy Tremble was irrelevant in Week 16 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Carolina TE caught one pass for six yards, finishing with 1.6 PPR points. Outside of Week 11, Tremble has not registered more than 4.0 PPR points in a game since Week 7. The Panthers will face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 17. The Seahawks ran 29th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to TEs this year. Even with a highly favorable matchup, Tremble is not close to consideration for fantasy championship lineups. Tremble has been targeted 4+ times in three games this season, and he has only one receiving TD.

Across 14 games this season, Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Josh Downs has recorded 52 receptions for 471 yards and four touchdowns on 79 targets. With an average of just 9.1 yards per reception, Downs lacks big-play upside. However, he's been a steady target-earner, recording at least five targets in six out of his last seven games. In Week 16, his second game this season playing with veteran quarterback Philip Rivers, Downs tied his season high with nine targets and hauled in five catches for 65 yards against the San Francisco 49ers. In Week 17, Downs and the Colts will face the Jacksonville Jaguars. Entering the week, Jacksonville's defense ranks 18th in the NFL in total passing yards allowed (3,492) and 27th in passing touchdowns allowed (26). The Jaguars held Downs to four catches for 23 yards on five in the first matchup of the season between the two teams in Week 14. Downs profiles as a high-floor, low-ceiling flex option for fantasy managers in Week 17 against Jacksonville.

From RotoBaller

Jalen Coker caught three passes for 47 yards in Week 16 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Carolina WR finished the game with 7.7 PPR points. It was the second time in his last five games that Coker posted fewer than 10 PPR points registered. Carolina will take on the No. 1 Seed in the NFC, the Seattle Seahawks, in Week 17. Seattle ranks 12th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to WRs this year. Coker does not have a great matchup, and his overall volume is concerning. Only twice this season has Coker been targeted 5+ times, and he averages 3.8 targets per game. Despite his low target share, Coker caught touchdown passes in two of his last three games. Coker should still have a role in the Panthers' passing game, but not enough for lineup consideration in most fantasy championship games.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London (knee) is officially questionable for his team's Week 17 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night, per Terrin Waack of atlantafalcons.com. London suffered a knee injury in Week 11 that sidelined him for the team's next four games, but he was able to return in Week 16. Atlanta eased him back into the lineup in Week 16, as he played a season-low 69% of the team's offensive snaps. That could indicate that London is not fully recovered from his injury, as he remained limited in practice throughout this week. However, London's Week 16 participation seems to bode well for his Week 17 status, unless he suffered an undisclosed setback. The 24-year-old has recorded 63 catches for 837 yards and six touchdowns on 102 targets across 10 games in 2025. If active, London profiles as a low-end fantasy WR1 in Week 17 against the Rams.
