Fantasy Football Player Notes
Week 17 PPR Rankings
|
19.
Nico Collins
WR - (at LAC)
In what should have been an eruption spot for Collins against the Raiders, he had his fourth-worst fantasy finish score of the season. Sometimes fantasy football just doesn't make sense. This week, the Texans have an even tougher match against the Chargers. The Chargers just held CeeDee Lamb to 51 yards last week. However, they allowed George Pickens to have 130 yards and a score. Both these defenses have been playing great down the stretch, and it may be a tricky spot for Collins to have a big week. That said, he is the motor of this offense adn should manage a fine fantasy day despite the matchup.

Dalton Schultz
TE - (at LAC)
Since Week 3, Dalton Schultz has been the TE8 in fantasy points per game with an 18.5% target share, 48.3 receiving yards per game, 1.60 yards per route run, and an 18.7% first-read share. In those 13 games, Schultz has had three touchdowns, nine red zone targets, and five deep targets. CJ Stroud should lean on Schultz this week. Since Week 10, the Bolts have allowed the fourth-highest yards per target to tight ends while ranking 17th in fantasy points per game.

Woody Marks
RB - (at LAC)
Last week, Woody Marks missed the game as he was dealing with an ankle injury. I'll update his status as we get more news with practice reports. If Marks is looking likely to miss Week 17, expect Jawhar Jordan to be added to the Primer.

Jayden Higgins
WR - (at LAC)
It's impossible to trust Jayden Higgins as a flex play this week. Higgins has disappointed in each of the last three weeks with nice matchups. Yes, this is partially a CJ Stroud issue, but also Dalton Schultz is the clear WR2 in this offense. Higgins hasn't had more than three receptions or 34 receiving yards in a game since Week 13. This week, he faces a Bolts' pass defense that has allowed the eighth-fewest receiving yards per game and the fourth-fewest PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers. Sit Higgins.
