Week 17 Outlooks For Fantasy Football Playoffs
Tyreek Hill, Miami Dolphins - Fantasy Football Outlook
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) was limited in practice all week and is officially questionable to play in Week 17 when the team heads to Cleveland to take on the Browns on Sunday. In addition to Hill, receivers Jaylen Waddle (knee) and Dee Eskridge (knee) are also questionable, so Malik Washington (knee) and River Cracraft could suddenly be much more involved this weekend if both Hill and Waddle are out.
The 30-year-old Hill has been managing a wrist injury all year but hasn't missed any games because of it, so we're pretty positive he's on the right side of questionable this weekend. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (hip) is also questionable, but Tua, Hill and Waddle are expected to be active.
Fantasy managers will want to verify that the Cheetah is active on Sunday, but if he is, he'll be a must-start in lineups against a Browns defense that has allowed the second-most half-PPR points to wideouts this year.
- Keith Hernandez, RotoBaller
Rico Dowdle, Dallas Cowboys - Fantasy Football Outlook
Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle rushed for just 23 yards last week after a three-week stretch of 100+ yards on the ground. The 26-year-old out of South Carolina has generally performed better when facing easier matchups, and this week's matchup against Philadelphia's top-ranked defense against running backs is far from easy.
Dowdle will see heavy volume per usual as the workhorse in Dallas' offense, but his production may not be as strong as it has in recent weeks due to the tough matchup. He is a low-end RB2 solely based on projected volume.
- Brant Hanson, RotoBaller
Breece Hall, New York Jets - Fantasy Football Outlook
New York Jets running back Breece Hall appears to be over his early-month knee injury as he practiced fully all week heading into a Week 17 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The Bills have been generous to opposing running backs this season, allowing the third-most fantasy points per game to the position. Hall has found the end zone three times over his past four games but a struggling Jets offense is a bit of a concern for him. Fantasy managers should treat Hall as a high-end RB2 heading into Week 17.
