Alvin Kamara handles 19 touches in Week 16 win.

Kamara rushed 12 times for 32 yards and caught seven passes for 58 yards. The rookie back missed almost all of the first matchup with Atlanta (a loss), but his mere presence on Sunday helped the Saints clinch a playoff berth. Kamara should be an elite RB1 in PPR leagues and a solid RB1 in standard leagues for the regular-season finale against Tampa Bay.

Jermaine Kearse catches five passes in Jets’ loss.

Kearse gained 42 yards on his five receptions (eight targets). He carries too much risk to trust in Week 17 fantasy lineups.

Mark Ingram scores in win over the Falcons.

Ingram rushed 13 times for 44 yards and a touchdown, adding three receptions for 22 yards. Atlanta played mostly stout run defense on Sunday, but Ingram was able to break loose on a 26-yard score in the third quarter. The Pro Bowl back will be a high-end/mid RB1 in Week 17 against the Buccaneers.

Robby Anderson leads the Jets in Week 16 receiving.

Anderson and the Jets receivers had to deal with a solid cornerback group for the Chargers, and he caught five passes for 51 yards in the loss. Anderson is some FLEX appeal for Week 17 against New England.

Drew Brees, Saints clinch a playoff berth with 23-13 win over the Falcons.

Brees was 21/28 for 239 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. The referees were undoubtedly in favor of the Saints on Sunday for whatever reason, but they will take the victory. New Orleans will play all their guys in the season finale, as a win gets them the division, so Brees can comfortably be inserted into lineups as a solid QB1 against the Bucs.

Matt Forte gets nine touches against the Chargers.

Forte had eight carries for 19 yards and one reception for seven yards, but he also lost a fumble in the loss. The veteran running back isn’t at 100% right now, and he’s a risky option in fantasy lineups against the Pats next weekend.

Bilal Powell breaks a long touchdown in Jets’ loss.

Powell had a big performance on the ground against the Chargers, which was helped by a long touchdown by him in the third quarter. He had 19 carries for 145 yards and a touchdown in the loss, with the touchdown being a 57-yarder. Powell has shown his ability to break long runs over the last two years. He carries some risk against the Patriots to conclude the season next week, but there is some upside there.
