Chigoziem Okonkwo Off Fantasy Radar In Week 16

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo saw at least five targets in three games from Week 12 to Week 14, but he earned just three targets in Week 15 against the Houston Texans.

Treylon Burks Could See More Looks In Week 16

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks showed signs of life last week against the Houston Texans, posting three receptions for 62 yards. In Week 16, he'll face a Seattle Seahawks defense that has allowed the sixth-most fantasy points per game to wideouts. Additionally, Nick Westbrook Ikhine (hand) has been placed on Injured Reserve, meaning his […]

DeAndre Hopkins Has Uncertain Outlook For Week 16

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has had a ton of upside in games with Will Levis (ankle), but Levis might be out against the Seattle Seahawks due to a high-ankle sprain.

Tyjae Spears An RB3/Flex Option Against Seattle

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has flashed upside during his rookie season, but Derrick Henry has remained the primary back for the team in 2023.

Derrick Henry In Bounce-Back Spot Against Seahawks

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry had one of the worst games of his career last week, posting just 15 total yards on 20 touches.

Jameson Williams A Deep-League Flex Option

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams saw a career-high seven targets in last week's victory over the Denver Broncos.

Amon-Ra St. Brown In For Another Big Day In Week 16

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught just five total passes in Week 13 and Week 14, which was shocking given his two-year history of commanding a ton of targets and catching a high volume of passes.

David Montgomery An RB2 With Upside Against Vikings

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery saw his four-game touchdown streak snapped in Week 14, and he wasn't able to find the end zone in Week 15 either.

Jahmyr Gibbs Has Plenty Of Upside In Tough Week 16 Matchup

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs was spectacular last week in a favorable matchup against the Denver Broncos, rushing 11 times for 100 yards and a touchdown and catching two passes for eight yards and another score.

Jared Goff Has QB1 Outlook Against Vikings

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is coming off a five-touchdown performance against the Denver Broncos. His Week 15 showing marked the ninth time in 14 games that he has posted at least two touchdowns.
