Patriots | Stefon Diggs hits century mark in Week 17 Sun Dec 28, 04:44 PM
New England Patriots WR Stefon Diggs posted six receptions for 101 yards and a touchdown on six targets in Week 17 against the New York Jets.
| Footballguys view: Diggs has ended up being much more impactful than Chris Godwin even though he was seen as a fallback to Godwin when the Bucs veteran receiver chose to stay in Tampa over basically a blank check from the Patriots. Diggs was also ready to play earlier than Godwin, who had to have a second surgery on his injured ankle. Diggs had a short slump earlier in December, but finished with two huge games to reward fantasy players who received in him. |

Cardinals | Marvin Harrison held off stat sheet Sun Dec 28, 04:44 PM
Arizona Cardinals WR Marvin Harrison Jr. (calf) was targeted one time during the Week 17 game against the Cincinnati Bengals but did not record a reception before leaving the game because of a heel injury.
| Footballguys view: Harrison was supposed to become the signature receiver for Kyler Murray as the Cardinals entered a brave new world on offense. His second season has been injury riddled and even more disappointing than his rookie season, something that few contemplated this summer. Jacoby Brissett even revived the passing game, but Michael Wilson was the breakout wide receiver, not Harrison. Harrison should fall even further going into his third season a la Kyle Pitts, but like Pitts, it might not be far enough. Pitts also could end up being a lesson in patience for dynasty players, so maybe this is the right moment to try to buy Harrison in dynasty leagues. |

Browns | Jerry Jeudy snags five balls in Week 17 Sun Dec 28, 04:37 PM
Cleveland Browns WR Jerry Jeudy caught five of seven targets for 54 yards in a Week 17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
| Footballguys view: Jeudy didn't put up big numbers with Shedeur Sanders at quarterback, but Sanders gives him a chance to have decent sustained quarterback play next season. He remains on the dynasty radar because of what Sanders showed this season. |

Cardinals | Ten receptions for Trey McBride Sun Dec 28, 04:36 PM
Arizona Cardinals TE Trey McBride caught 10 passes for 76 yards and one touchdown against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17. He was targeted 13 times during the game.
| Footballguys view: McBride broke Zach Ertz's single season record for receptions by a tight end - (116 in 2018) and he could hold it for as long as Ertz did or longer. McBride was at 119 at the end of this game and has one more contest against the Rams to cement his place in the record book. If McBride can catch eight passes next week, he'll have of the top 10 reception seasons of all time. |

Link to story Patriots | Rhamonde Stevenson totals pair of TDs Sun Dec 28, 04:29 PM
New England Patriots RB Rhamondre Stevenson rushed eight times for 47 yards and a touchdown in Week 17 against the New York Jets, and he added five receptions for 55 yards and a touchdown on five targets.
| Footballguys view: Stevenson has been the Patriots running back who adds value at times as a receiver instead of rookie TreVeyon Henderson as the drafting of his potential replacement seemed to light a fire under the veteran. He wasn't consistently making a fantasy impact this season, but if you trusted him in a great Week 17 matchup, you were very happy with what you got today. |

Browns | Dylan Sampson runs for 27 yards Sun Dec 28, 04:29 PM
Cleveland Browns RB Dylan Sampson carried 11 times for 27 yards in a Week 17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. He caught three passes for zero yards.
Link to story Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson runs for 82 yards Sun Dec 28, 04:25 PM
New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson rushed 19 times for 82 yards in Week 17 against the New York Jets, while he was not targeted in the passing game.
| Footballguys view: Rhamondre Stevenson got the two running back scores as the passing game involvement we expected hasn't really materialized. He still has shown home run speed and should only get better in an offense that has moved into the penthouse of quality and fantasy value. Henderson rallied to play after suffering a concussion last Saturday and while he didn't produce fantasy fireworks, he showed he can log a heavy workload in the bread and butter running game. |
Patriots | Jahlani Tavai good for pair of TFLs Sun Dec 28, 04:24 PM

Patriots | Dell Pettus leads with six stops, sack Sun Dec 28, 04:22 PM

Link to story Browns | Sanders throws touchdown in win over Steelers Sun Dec 28, 04:21 PM
Cleveland Browns QB Shedeur Sanders completed 17 of 23 passes for 186 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions in a Week 17 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers.
| Footballguys view: Sanders numbers aren't impressive in fantasy terms, but he lost Harold Fannin early on and didn't get much help from the running game. He looks like he belongs in the NFL with an approach as a passer that engages defenses with a quick processor and courage. He should be the team's starting quarterback Week 1, but Cleveland will have a top 8 pick and could decide to take a quarterback. |
Jets | Payton Page with five solo tackles, TFL Sun Dec 28, 04:20 PM

Link to story Cardinals | Michael Wilson catches TD pass Sun Dec 28, 04:18 PM
Arizona Cardinals WR Michael Wilson caught five passes for 89 yards and one touchdown against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17. He was targeted 10 times during the game.
| Footballguys view: Wilson scored a long touchdown in the first half when the Bengals secondary turned into tackling dummies instead of wrapping him up. Otherwise, it was a futile afternoon for the Cardinals offense even though they were facing one of the worst defenses in the league. |

Arizona Cardinals RB Michael Carter rushed for 29 yards on seven carries against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17. He also caught two passes for 14 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Carter fizzled in a good matchup as the Cardinals failed to get a first down on five of their first seven drives. The Cardinals backfield was a disaster this season because of season-ending injuries to James Conner and Trey Benson before the leaves started changing colors. |

Jets | Isaiah Davis totals four touches Sun Dec 28, 04:03 PM
New York Jets RB Isaiah Davis rushed three times for 11 yards in Week 16 against the New England Patriots, and he added a 9-yard reception on his lone target.
| Footballguys view: Davis exited the contest after suffering a blow to the head, and the Jets subsequently ruled him out due to a concussion. With Davis now in concussion protocol, his season may have come to an end with just one game remaining. |

Link to story Jets | Breece Hall runs for 111 yards, TD Sun Dec 28, 03:55 PM
New York Jets RB Breece Hall rushed 14 times for 111 yards and a touchdown in the Week 17 game against the New England Patriots, while adding two receptions for 18 yards on three targets before leaving the game late due to a knee injury.
| Footballguys view: We'll follow up on the injury as details come to light, but Hall is just as good as the fantasy community thought he was when the debate at the top of the running back position was Hall vs. Christian McCaffrey. He'll go to free agency next season with the possibility of a Saquon Barkley-esque leap in fantasy value if he lands in a good offense that is committed to featuring him. |

New York Jets OG John Simpson (knee) suffered a knee injury in the Week 17 game against the New England Patriots.
Link to story Cardinals | Jacoby Brissett throws two touchdowns Sun Dec 28, 03:32 PM
Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett went 21-for-37 for 212 yards and two touchdowns against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 17.
| Footballguys view: Brissett and the Cardinals offense was almost completely lifeless until garbage time. He had five three and outs, another drive that amounted to one yard, and a long touchdown when the Bengals decided to not tackle Michael Wilson before the Bengals defense went into prevent mode and Brissett bailed out fantasy teams that were relying on him. There's a chance that he is the Week 1 starting quarterback for the Cardinals, and potentially with a new head coach. |

Patriots | Drake Maye pulled in Week 17 rout Sun Dec 28, 03:09 PM
New England Patriots QB Drake Maye completed 19-of-21 passes for 256 yards, five touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 17 against the New York Jets, as QB Joshua Dobbs mopped up. He also ran for 22 yards on three carries. Maye is the first Patriots QB to have five touchdown passes in a game since QB Tom Brady in 2017.
| Footballguys view: Maye is the first quarterback in NFL history to complete 90+% of his passes in a game while throwing for over 250 yards and five touchdowns. This is a statement about where Maye is in his career as much as it is a statement about where the Jets defense is right now. Maye has graduated to elite fantasy quarterback status. He'll be going all out along with the rest of the Patriots offense against Miami with the #1 seed on the line if the Chargers (who are only playing for wild card seeding) can beat the Broncos. |

Browns | Harold Fannin Jr. scores TD before leaving Sun Dec 28, 02:49 PM
Updating a previous report, Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. (groin) aggravated his groin injury in the first half of the Week 17 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, and he will not return. He had two receptions for 30 yards and a TD on two targets before departing.
| Footballguys view: Fannin at least gave fantasy teams a 28-yard touchdown on the play that ended his afternoon. He has been one of the biggest breakout players of the 2025 rookie class and Fannin might actually have a quarterback in Shedeur Sanders. Fannin should be one of the top 6-8 tight ends in fantasy drafts next season. He could end up being a rare tight end who is the #1 target in his team's passing game. |
