Fantasy Football Player Notes
Week 16 Rankings
|
22.
TreVeyon Henderson
RB - (at BAL)
Henderson might be having one of the most head-scratching seasons for a fantasy running back. Despite having three games with 27 or more fantasy points, he does not have a game between 12 and 26 fantasy points all season. Ultimately, he is the definition of a boom-bust player this season. One thing is clear, and that is his ability to spring big plays. Finishing with 14 carries for 148 yards and two scores, was electric last week. Unfortunately, Rhamondre Stevenson was heavily involved for most of the game as well. If you have made the playoffs with Henderson, his highs are too high to bench, but he is unlikely to score more than 12 fantasy points unless he explodes again. It's a risk, but the Ravens' defense this week is not the scariest. Hopefully, you are relying on him in your flex, and not as your locked-in RB1 this week.

Rhamondre Stevenson
RB - (at BAL)
Over the last two games, Rhamondre Stevenson has had a 62.4% snap rate with one red zone rushing attempt while averaging 12 touches and 78.5 total yards. Overall, among 43 qualifying backs, Stevenson ranks 26th in explosive run rate, sixth in missed tackle rate, and 24th in yards after contact per attempt. Stevenson is a flex play that is best left on the bench this week. Since Week 11, Baltimore's run defense has tightened up, allowing the second-lowest explosive run rate, the 14th-lowest missed tackle rate, and the second-fewest yards before contact per attempt.

Stefon Diggs
WR - (at BAL)
Stefon Diggs has seen his route share dip at various points in the season. I bring it up because it happened again last week. Diggs had a 58.6% route share, a 13% target share, and a 17.6% first-read share. Since Week 8, Diggs has had only two top 24 weekly finishes among wide receivers while having a 65.7% route share, a 17.9% target share, 39.3 receiving yards per game, 1.67 yards per route run, and an 18.8% first-read share. Those are WR3 usage numbers. In those seven games, Diggs has had six red zone targets and five deep targets. I don't see his usage changing this week, so just understand what you're signing up for if you're flexing him this week. Since Week 10, Baltimore has allowed the ninth-most receiving yards per game to perimeter wide receivers while ranking 17th in fantasy points per game.

Hunter Henry
TE - (at BAL)
Hunter Henry is the TE16 in fantasy points per game with four TE1 weekly finishes this season. Among tight ends, he ranks third in deep targets and fourth in red zone targets. Henry has a 16.8% target share with 44.9 receiving yards per game, 1.70 yards per route run, and a 19.2% first-read share. Sit Henry this week. Since Week 9, Baltimore has allowed the fewest yards per target and the second-fewest fantasy points per game to tight ends.

Kayshon Boutte
WR - (at BAL)
This isn't the week to consider flexing Kayshon Boutte. This season, Boutte has been the field stretcher for New England with his 16.7 aDOT and 11 deep targets (28.9% of his target volume). Since Week 9, Baltimore has allowed the 12th-lowest deep ball completion rate and the seventh-lowest passer rating to downfield targets. Boutte will have more spike weeks this season, but I don't think this will be one of them.
