Jaxson Dart QB | NYG
Giants' Jaxson Dart: Rebounds against Raiders
Dart completed 22 of 30 passes for 207 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Raiders. He added nine rushes for 48 yards and two touchdowns.
Dart had a rough showing in Week 16, but he bounced back in an advantageous matchup. He connected with both Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton for long gains of 36, 21, 17 and 15 yards to average 6.9 yards per attempt -- his highest mark in his last three starts. Equally encouraging was Dart's aggressiveness with his legs, which included rushing scores of 12 and two yards. He should have the chance to end his rookie season well in a Week 18 matchup against Dallas.

Cade Otton TE | TB
Buccaneers' Cade Otton: Four grabs in loss to Miami
Otton caught all four of his targets for 33 yards in the Bucs' loss to the Dolphins on Sunday.
It marked Otton's highest yardage output since Week 10, but the tight end remains scoreless on the season. With all of the Bucs' wideouts healthy, Otton's a low-floor, low-ceiling fantasy bet ahead of next Saturday's Week 18 date with the Panthers. Otton caught just two passes for 15 yards on two targets against Carolina in Week 16.

Ty Johnson RB | BUF
Bills' Ty Johnson: Garners eight touches in Week 17
Johnson rushed five times for 15 yards and caught three of four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Eagles.
Johnson was able to tote the rock a season-high five times while corralling multiple passes for the eighth time in nine games. The running back has proven to be a reliable pass catcher for Buffalo, but unless he reaches the end zone, he doesn't have much fantasy utility in shallow leagues.

Sean Tucker RB | TB
Buccaneers' Sean Tucker: Rushes for eight yards in loss
Tucker rushed two times for eight yards in Tampa Bay's loss to Miami on Sunday.
Tucker failed to reel in his lone target in the passing game. Tucker has been handling goal-line duties for the Bucs. Part of a three-way committee in the backfield, Tucker carries extremely minimal fantasy value ahead of a Week 18 date with the Panthers. He's a touchdown-or-bust proposition with Bucky Irving healthy.

Demario Douglas WR | NE
Patriots' DeMario Douglas: Little production in Week 17 win
Douglas caught one of two targets for 10 yards in the Patriots' 42-10 win over the Jets on Sunday.
Douglas was one of the lone Patriots to do very little in the box score, as Drake Maye went 19-for-21 passing for 256 yards and five touchdowns. Douglas entered the game with a hamstring issue but was active versus New York, though his two targets were tied for the fewest on the team. After producing at least 30 receiving yards in six straight games from Weeks 8 to 13, Douglas has totaled two catches for 16 yards on four targets across the past four contests. He's a bit player in the New England offense.

Rachaad White RB | WAS
Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Limited production in Week 17
White turned two carries into 10 yards and caught both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Dolphins.
White was an afterthought on offense in Week 17, churning out his fewest rushing yards in a game this season, while the two carries were tied for his second lowest total on the year. The running back was able to reel in at least one pass for the 16th consecutive contest this season. With Bucky Irving back operating as the team's primary option in the backfield, White has turned into an unappealing fantasy option.

Gunnar Helm TE | TEN
Titans' Gunnar Helm: One catch in Week 17 loss
Helm recorded one catch for seven yards on two targets in Sunday's loss to the Saints.
For the second straight week, Helm was out-produced by Chig Okonkwo, who paced the Titans with 55 yards and one touchdown on three catches across a team-high seven targets against New Orleans. Through 16 games this season, Helm has logged a 44-357-2 receiving line on 55 targets.

Cam Little K | JAC
Jaguars' Cam Little: Hits three field goals Sunday
Little made all three of his field-goal attempts and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 23-17 win over the Colts.
Little's field goals came from 34, 42 and 53 yards out, and they also turned a three-point Jacksonville deficit into a six-point win. The 2024 sixth-round pick has been solid for the Jags in his second season, making 87 percent of his field goals (28-of-32) and 45 of 46 extra points. He has not missed a kick from inside 40 yards.

Tyler Warren TE | IND
Colts' Tyler Warren: Leads Colts pass catchers
Warren recorded five receptions on five targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Jaguars.
Philip Rivers spread targets around to a wide range of pass catchers, as at least five Colts earned at least three targets. Warren was second among the group, though he led the team in yardage thanks to long gains of 14 and 12 yards. This marked his highest yardage total in a game since Week 12, and he should remain a key part of the offense in Week 18 against the Texans, even with Indianapolis eliminated from playoff contention.

Joey Slye K | TEN
Titans' Joey Slye: Makes all six kicks in loss
Slye went 4-of-4 on field-goal tries and 2-of-2 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Saints.
The kicker also drilled two field goals from more than 50 yards out (50 and 58). Altogether, Slye has only missed one kick since Week 8, and for the year, he's 82 percent on field goals (28-of-34) and 25-of-26 on extra points. He has also gotten at least three extra-point attempts in four of Tennessee's last six games, as the Titans' offense has started to improve.
