Dallas Goedert (calf) ruled out for Week 17.

Goedert will have his third season end after 11 games played, and he finishes with 46 receptions, 524 yards, and three touchdowns (all of which were lower than his 2019 totals). With the future of Zach Ertz very cloudy with the Eagles, Goedert could be back on the TE1 map as the clear top option from opening week.

Miles Sanders (knee) ruled out for Week 17.

The Eagles ruled out a bunch of players for the finale, including Sanders despite his knee issue being reported as minor. The second-year back will end his season with 164 carries, 867 yards, and six rushing touchdowns in 12 games, but the disappointment came with his usage as a receiver (28 receptions for 197 yards after 50/509/3 as a rookie). Sanders will be a bounce back candidate in 2021, though Philadelphia could certainly add a complement that would have a significant role.

Tyreek Hill has been ruled out for Week 17.

He will join Patrick Mahomes as a top option getting ready for January, and the team also ruled out Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle) and Sammy Watkins (calf) for this week. It will be interesting to see if Travis Kelce ends up playing with a chance to lead the league in receiving yards.

Julio Jones (hamstring) has been ruled out for Week 17.

Jones dealt with hamstring issues all season, limiting him to just nine games played in a disappointing year for the Falcons. Jones caught 51 passes for 771 yards and three touchdowns, making 2020 his first year not reaching 1,000 yards since 2013 (also due to injury). The All-Pro will turn 32 years old this winter, but he’s a freak athlete that shouldn’t surprise anyone if he’s again at the top of the game among his position next season.

Terry McLaurin (ankle) is officially questionable for Week 17.

McLaurin is dealing with a high-ankle sprain, but he’s attempting to tough it out and play for Washington in a win-and-in game on Sunday night. Overall, it might be difficult to wait and go with McLaurin in Week 17 fantasy lineups.

Alex Smith (calf) is officially questionable for Week 17.

Smith appears to be trending in the right direction more consistently this week, and we expect that he will be out there for a must-win game Sunday night against the Eagles. However, with Washington playing in the final game of the regular season, Smith’s status might not be certain until Sunday evening.

The Jaguars ruled out Collin Johnson (hamstring) for Week 17.

Johnson showed flashes throughout his rookie year, catching 18 passes (on 31 targets) for 272 yards (15.1 average) and two touchdowns in 14 games. The Texas product is an intriguing big target to keep an eye on in dynasty leagues in particular, especially if the Jags are on the rise with a new regime and potentially Trevor Lawrence at quarterback moving forward.
