Chet Gresham takes us through the top 110 PPR WRs for Week 17
Welcome to Week 17 or for a select few of you, the fantasy football championship! It’s going to be a fun end to the season in real-life NFL football, which also makes things better for us fake footballers. Many teams will still need to play all out for playoff implications, as no teams have truly dominated this season.
Week 17 byes
None.
WR streamer of the week
Parker Washington, Jaguars vs Colts
Washington went off last week against a strong Broncos pass defense. He has been quiet of late, but has shown good upside at times this season. The Jaguars still have a shot at wining their division and an outside shot at the No. 1 seed, so they will be going all out against a Colts team that has been eliminated.
WR injuries
Davantae Adams, Rams
Adams injured his hamstring in Week 15 and is considered week-to-week. He missed last week and could miss this week’s Monday night affair with the Falcons, but nothing is set in stone at this point.
Rome Odunze, Bears
Odunze has been playing with a stress fracture in his foot, but has been unable to go the last two weeks. DJ Moore has played well in his stead and we just don’t have enough information to go on for Odunze at this point.
Luther Burden, Bears
Burden missed last week with an ankle injury after not getting in any practices. He’ll need to get in some work this week for a shot to play against the 49ers on Sunday Night Football.
Rashee Rice, Chiefs
Rice missed Week 16 with a concussion and will need to be cleared before playing the Broncos on Christmas. If he is cleared, he’ll have Chris Oladokun throwing him the ball.
D.K. Metcalf, Steelers
Metcalf will miss the final two games of the season after taking a swing at a fan in Week 16. Metcalf will appeal his suspension, so there is a chance something changes, but probably not. Adam Thielen, Calvin Austin, and Marques Valdez-Scantling would likely be the top receivers with Metcalf out.
