The Kansas City Chiefs D/ST allowed 295 yards and had three sacks in a 35-24 win over the Tennessee Titans Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: The Chiefs did not record a turnover but recorded three sacks and did enough to win Sunday. This unit is a strong fantasy option heading into next season due to making big strides over the second half of the year.

Harrison Butker was 5-for-5 on extra point attempts in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Butker was perfect Sunday and will enter next season as a strong fantasy option in an elite offense.

Darwin Thompson rushed once for seven yards and did not record a catch on one target in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Thompson saw little action Sunday but is an intriguing fantasy option for next season depending on how the backfield in Kansas City shakes out.

Demarcus Robinson had two receptions for 31 yards on two targets in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Robinson converted both of his chances Sunday but is not relevant for fantasy.

Mecole Hardman brought in his only target for eight yards in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Hardman did not see much action outside of the return game Sunday. He enters next season as an intriguing upside option.

Sammy Watkins had seven receptions for 114 yards and one touchdown on ten targets in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Watkins had a big game and scored his first touchdown since Week 1 Sunday. His fantasy value next season is up in the air with questions surrounding where he will play as a potential cap casualty.

Travis Kelce had three receptions for 30 yards on four targets in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: Kelce took a backseat to Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins this week. He enters next season as an elite TE1.

Tyreek Hill had five receptions for 67 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday. He added one rush for seven yards.

Fantasy Impact: Hill scored twice and could have had a third score if it wasn't for a miscommunication early in the game Sunday. He enters next season as a very strong WR1.

Damien Williams rushed 17 times for 45 yards and one touchdown in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday. He added five receptions for 44 yards on six targets.

Fantasy Impact: Williams was solid again on Sunday as the Chiefs' clear RB1. Owners will need to see how the offseason shakes out to value him properly for next season.

Patrick Mahomes completed 23-of-35 passes for 294 yards and three touchdowns in the Chiefs' 35-24 win over the Titans Sunday. He added eight rushes for 53 yards and one touchdown.

Fantasy Impact: Mahomes posted yet another monster performance Sunday to put the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. He will enter next season the likely QB2 behind Lamar Jackson.

Ryan Tannehill was 21-for-31 for 209 yards with two touchdown passes while also rushing three times for 11 yards as the Titans lost to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship on Sunday.

Fantasy Impact: The Chiefs took a big lead in the second half forcing Tannehill to pass as the Titans had to abandon Derrick Henry and the run. The veteran QB came up short but overall had a strong postseason. Tannehill will be a free agent but expect the team to try to hold onto him as the offense responded to him when he took over for Marcus Mariota early in the season.

Derrick Henry carried the ball 19 times for 69 yards and a touchdown in the team's AFC Championship Game loss to the Chiefs on Sunday by a 35-24 score.

Fantasy Impact: Henry had a strong first half but the Titans fell behind in the second half and only ran the veteran running back three times. Henry will be a free agent in the offseason but expect the Titans to do all they can to keep him on the roster. Expect Henry to be one of the first picks in most 2020 fantasy drafts.

Fantasy Impact: Jones missed last Sunday’s divisional-round win over the Texans. He will provide an instant boost to the Chiefs pass rush. There has been no report of Jones being limited or on a snap count, expect Jones to play in his usual role.

Adam Humphries (ankle) is listed as active for Sunday’s AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs. (Source: Tennessee Titans on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact: Humphries has been out of action since December 1st. He will give Ryan Tannehill another target to go along with Corey Davis and AJ Brown. There has been no report of Humphries being limited, expect him to play his usual role out of the slot.

LeSean McCoy (illness) is inactive for Sunday’s AFC Championship game against the Titans. (Source: BJ Kissel on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: With McCoy ruled out, Damien Williams will lead the Chiefs backfield in Sunday’s AFC Championship Game against them Titans. Darwin Thompson will back him up, and provide a change of pace when Williams is rested.

George Kittle wasn't listed on the 49ers' final injury report. (Source: David Lombardi on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Kittle missed practice on Wednesday but practiced in full on Thursday and Friday. He was held to just 16 yards in the 49ers' Divisional Round win over the Vikings but we expect him to be more involved on Sunday afternoon against the Packers.

New Orleans police have a warrant to arrest Odell Beckham Jr. for slapping a police officer on the back side after the NCAAF national championship game. (Source: SaintsNOW on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact: Beckham was celebrating in the LSU locker room and was caught on camera for the incident. He has also been in the news recently for handing out cash to players following the game. The good news is nobody was harmed during either incident.

Re-signing linebacker Bud Dupree is a "top priority" for the Steelers this offseason according to the team. (Source: Gerry Dulac on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Both the owner and head coach have said this, so it appears that something will likely get done, either a long-term contract or the franchise tag. Dupree was one of the top players on the Steelers' 2019 defense which picked up steam as the season progressed and turned into one of the best units in the league. They figure to be a popular D/ST in 2020 fantasy football drafts.

Zach Line has announced his retirement from football. (Source: Zach Line on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: The 29-year-old will step away after seven seasons in the league with the Vikings and Saints. One of the few fullbacks remaining in the league, it will be interesting to see how the Saints replace Line in their offense, assuming they continue with a fullback.

The Steelers still don't have a concrete timeline for QB Ben Roethlisberger's rehab on his season-ending elbow injury, but the Steelers remain encouraged as everything so far has been 'positive.' (Source: Brooke Pryor on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: It sounds like there will be some uncertainty around Roethlisberger throughout the offseason, but hopefully there will be some clarity as we approach training camps. As we saw in 2019, even a veteran Roethlisberger is an upgrade over the team's other options. As such, it wouldn't be suprising to see the Steelers address the quarterback position this offseason via free agency or the NFL Draft.
