Tank Bigsby A Decent Upside Flex Option In Week 18
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby has decent upside against the Indianapolis Colts in the final week of the season.

Travis Etienne Jr. A Low-Ceiling Flex Against Colts
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. doesn't have much upside in a meaningless final game against the Indianapolis Colts.

Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams just isn't being involved enough to be an exciting fantasy option heading into the Week 18 regular-season finale on Sunday in Denver against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs.

It isn't always easy finding the best player to put in your FLEX spots in fantasy football.

Roschon Johnson Not A Trustworthy Option In Backup Role
Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson remains the No. 2 option on the depth chart, keeping him off the fantasy radar in most leagues ahead of his Week 18 matchup against the Green Bay Packers.
