Jeff Driskel, Bengals lose a close one to the Steelers, 16-13.

Driskel was 12/24 for 95 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero interceptions, also adding two carries for 13 yards. Cincinnati had injuries run through the receiving corps, so the dual-threat quarterback did well to not make any huge mistakes and keep his team in the game. Overall this season, Driskel completed 59.7% of his passes for 1,003 yards, six touchdowns, and two interceptions with 25 carries for 130 yards and two scores as a runner. Turning 26 in the offseason, Driskel might have a chance to compete for the starting job in 2019.

Marcell Ateman catches one pass in Week 17 loss.

It went for seven yards. Ateman’s rookie campaign ends with 15 receptions for 154 yards and a touchdown, and he should have a chance to carve out a role in Jon Gruden’s offense next summer.

Jeff Wilson Jr. leaves Week 17 with a shoulder injury.

Before leaving, Wilson carried three times for nine yards. The undrafted rookie running back’s season ends with 66 carries for 266 yards and 12 receptions for 98 yards in six games. Wilson played well and took advantage of his late-season opportunity, and he might be the favorite for the team’s No. 3 running back behind Jerick McKinnon and Matt Breida in 2019.

Chris Carson stays hot to conclude the regular season.

Carson carried 19 times for 122 yards and one touchdown along with one reception for seven yards in Seattle’s win over Arizona. The second-year running back’s strong regular season ends with 247 carries for 1,151 yards and nine touchdowns along with 20 receptions for 163 yards. He ended the regular season campaign with at least 90 rushing yards and a touchdown in the final four games (447 yards and five touchdowns total), so he’s one of the hottest players in the league entering the postseason. Carson is simply a beast, so it was good to see the Seahawks commit to handing him the ball nearly 250 times this season, and fantasy owners that selected him got an excellent option that got better as the season went on.

Kyle Juszczyk loses fumble in Week 17.

Juszczyk carried two times for nine yards along with one reception for 15 yards and the fumble lost against the Rams. The Niners fullback/offensive weapon’s season ends with eight carries for 30 yards and 30 receptions for 324 yards and one touchdown. He’s not a fantasy option heading into 2019.

Darren Waller caught three passes for 23 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Chiefs.

Waller brought in all three of his looks, and he finishes the season with six receptions for 75 yards, all of which came over the past three weeks. The 26-year-old isn’t on the fantasy radar.

Brandon Zylstra targeted once in Week 17 loss.

It was a heave to the end zone by Kirk Cousins, but Zylstra didn’t have much of a chance. The 25-year-old will look to stick around in Minnesota or somewhere else in 2019.
