First and foremost, everyone here at RotoBaller has Damar Hamlin in our thoughts. Fortunately, he has improved tremendously, which is a relief. We enter the final week of the NFL regular season, and there are still plenty of teams searching for a postseason berth, meaning some players on the defensive end won't have the luxury of getting a day off.
Let's take a look at our Week 18 fantasy football defense (D/ST) rankings, as of January 7th. Our goal is to help you set those winning lineups, so let's see where key team defenses like the Jets DST, Eagles DST, Jaguars DST, Cowboys DST, and Chargers DST, among others.
Our defense (DST) fantasy football rankings are put together by Nick Mariano, Brandon Murchison, and Andersen Pickard. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important fantasy football injury news for this week.
