Dynasty Fantasy Football Player News

Michael Penix QB ATL
By: Dec 18: 7:50 AM EST

The Falcons will start Michael Penix Jr moving forward.

Dynasty Analysis

The key here is "moving forward," which likely means the Kirk Cousins era in Atlanta is over after less than one season. The Falcons shocked most of the world when they drafted Penix in the top ten after signing Cousins this off-season, but it turns out that may not have been crazy after all since Cousins has struggled mightily over the past month. Penix's value is on the rise while Cousins' is going to sink rapidly this off-season.

Will Levis QB TEN
By: Dec 15: 11:43 PM EST

Titans quarterback Will Levis was benched after completing 8-of-12 passes for 89 yards with three interceptions.

Dynasty Analysis

With the Titans now sitting at 3-11, it seems clear the Levis era may be running on fumes. While he's shown some signs of life here and there this season, it's obvious Levis simply isn't a quarterback worth building around. At this point, his dynasty value is in the tank and it's hard to see the Titans having him under center next year.

Jerry Jeudy WR CLE
By: Dec 15: 11:41 PM EST

Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy had 11 catches for 108 yards in a loss to Cleveland.

Dynasty Analysis

Jeudy has been nothing short of fantastic since Deshaun Watson was replaced with Jameis Winston and passed 1,000 yards receiving with his efforts today. A player who was nothing more than bench fodder for much of the season, Jeudy has been fantastic over the past month as he's finally looking like the first rounder he once was with the Broncos. Few players have seen their dynasty value rise more over the past month than Jeudy.

Patrick Mahomes QB KC
By: Dec 15: 11:37 PM EST

Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes suffered an ankle injury in a win against Cleveland.

Dynasty Analysis

Mahomes was down for some time before limping to the sideline and this injury has the looks of one that could keep him out of action for a while. We'll see what the tests say moving forward, but the ever-durable Mahomes has looked mortal in more ways than one this year. His dynasty value for the off-season may hinge on just how bad this is, so stay tuned.

Nick Chubb RB CLE
By: Dec 15: 11:34 PM EST

Browns running back Nick Chubb broke his foot in a loss to the Chiefs.

Dynasty Analysis

Brutal. After returning from a catastrophic leg injury, Chubb's season will end with an unimpressive 332 rushing yards and three touchdowns in eight games played. This latest injury may just seal his fate as the Browns could move on from him in the off-season, despite how much he has meant to the franchise and the community. Chubb has simply not looked the same this year and while he could recover fully from his ailments, he looks like a running back whose career could be on fumes. His dynasty value is going to sink like a rock this off-season.

Rico Dowdle RB DAL
By: Dec 15: 11:29 PM EST

Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle had 149 rushing yards in a win against Carolina.

Dynasty Analysis

Since finally getting the chance to be the Cowboys lead back, Dowdle has posted three consecutive career high days with 112, 131, and 149 rushing yards the past three weeks. While Dallas could easily replace him next season, it's clear he's giving them a lot of reasons to think otherwise. Now seemingly destined to hit 1,000 yards on the season, Dowdle is a very interesting hold in dynasty leagues.

Davante Adams WR NYJ
By: Dec 15: 11:26 PM EST

Jets wide receiver Davante Adams had nine catches for 198 yards and two touchdowns in a win against the Jaguars.

Dynasty Analysis

The Jets are a dumpster fire, but Adams has been solid since being acquired from the Raiders. His future may hinge on just what Aaron Rodgers does moving forward, but Adams looks like a lineup lock for at least the rest of the season and a solid trade target for contenders in the off-season.

Brian Thomas WR JAC
By: Dec 15: 11:23 PM EST

Jaguars rookie Brian Thomas Jr had ten catches for 105 yards and two touchdowns in a loss against the Jets.

Dynasty Analysis

Thomas has been nothing but consistent all season, despite being on an awful football team with a revolving door at quarterback. He now boasts a 64/956/8 line on the season and will obviously start his career with at least 1,000 yards. While others may have put up some bigger numbers as a rookie, few have been more impressive when you consider his situation. Thomas looks like a solid top-20 option moving forward in dynasty leagues, at worst.

Jaylen Waddle WR MIA
By: Dec 15: 11:18 PM EST

Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle left a loss to the Texans with a knee injury prior to catching a pass.

Dynasty Analysis

Waddle came down awkwardly after getting his leg caught under a defender and his injury had the looks of a pretty scary one. The Dolphins are expressing optimism, but more tests are going to need to be run before we know the extent of his injury. What is known, however, is the fact Waddle has had a very down year. His dynasty value has sunk a bit this season, but we'll see just how bad this year is before we decide just where he fits in the pecking order of dynasty rankings this off-season.

Jared Goff QB DET
By: Dec 15: 11:05 PM EST

Lions quarterback Jared Goff completed 38-of-59 passes for 494 yards with five touchdowns and no interceptions in a loss to Buffalo.

Dynasty Analysis

Matthew Stafford somehow had a day once with 520 passing yards in a single game, but this was the second-best performance for a Lions quarterback all-time. Goff has been fantastic all season and now has 30 touchdowns and just ten interceptions on the season as he's inching closer to 4,000 passing yards with a month to go in the season. Goff has been a top-ten quarterback all season and while others may get more publicity, few have honestly been better.
