Updated Week 17 Flex Rankings for Fantasy Football: Boston Scott, Allen Lazard, Breshad Perriman, Jeff Wilson, Cam Akers, Zay Jones

jaret patterson fantasy football rankings NFL DFS lineup picks

It's the fantasy football Super Bowl! Let's keep the winning going with our updated fantasy football Flex rankings for Week 17. Congrats to everyone who has made it this far, now it's time to win it all -- so let's take a look at where FLEX options like Boston Scott, Allen Lazard, Breshad Perriman, Jeff Wilson Jr., Cam Akers and Zay Jones rank, among others?

In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important fantasy football injury news for this week. There are many key injuries and COVID-19 situations to keep track of, so be sure to check back until kickoff.

Our updated FLEX fantasy football rankings are built out weekly by three of our lead fantasy football analysts - Nick MarianoPierre Camus and Brandon Murchison. These fantasy football Flex rankings are geared towards the skill positions that are played in traditional Flex spots (RB/WR or RB/WR/TE). For most fantasy leagues, that Flex spot consists of running backs, wide receivers and in many cases tight ends. Make sure to follow the injury updates below, and good luck RotoBallers!

Be sure to check all of our fantasy football rankings for 2024:
