BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 25% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Minshew entered Week 15’s game against the Steelers missing Jonathan Taylor’s presence in the run game. Then, during the first half of the game, he lost both backup running back Zack Moss and top wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr. Neither loss proved detrimental to his ability to produce.

Minshew completed 18 of 28 passes for 215 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions against a strong defense while missing his two best weapons on offense. It was Minshew’s second game of the season with over 20.0 fantasy points and his fourth consecutive game with over 14.0 fantasy points.
There is a chance that Pittman Jr. will miss Week 16 depending on how long it takes him to clear the concussion protocol, but Jonathan Taylor is expected to return. Minshew could have a big game against a Falcons secondary that has struggled against quarterbacks this season.
