Allgeier rushed 16 times for 79 yards while losing six yards on his only reception in Sunday's 26-19 win over Arizona.

Allgeier surprisingly tied starter Bijan Robinson in carries a week after being limited to two touches against the Buccaneers. That's where the comparisons end, as the latter went off for 92 yards and a score as a receiver out of the backfield compared to the backup's negative production in that area Sunday. Allgeier's 16 carries tied his personal high this season, a total he reached twice back in Weeks 2 and 4. Allgeier's 126-475-8 rushing line across 15 games highlights his touchdown dependency while serving as Atlanta's change-of-pace back. The talented backup provides just enough upside to warrant flex consideration against the Rams next Monday.

Patterson converted all three of his extra-point attempts in Miami's 45-21 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

Patterson has kicked in all 15 games for Miami this season, making 24 of 26 field-goal attempts and 31 of 32 PATs. It's been a career year for the 26-year-old after he spent the previous four seasons bouncing around the league with five different teams.

Jackson (back) said after Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Patriots that his goal is to play Saturday against the Packers, but he will undergo further testing Monday on the back injury that knocked him out of the loss to New England, Jamison Hensley of ESPN.com reports.

Jackson was injured in the second quarter of Sunday night's loss and was ruled out in the third quarter after initially being deemed questionable to return. The Ravens need to win their last two games and have the Steelers lose their last two games in order to make the playoffs, and Baltimore will face Pittsburgh in Week 18. The results of Monday's tests could go a long way in determining Jackson's potential availability against Green Bay, with Tyler Huntley waiting in the wings if Jackson can't play.

Hollins had seven receptions on nine targets for 69 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over Baltimore.

Hollins turned in a fine PPR performance on Sunday Night Football while tying his previous season high of seven receptions. The enigmatic wideout has carved out a solid role with the Patriots of late, averaging 50.8 receiving yards per game over his last 10 appearances. Hollins has recorded zero touchdown receptions over that span, effectively limiting his utility to deep and PPR fantasy leagues. The 31-year-old should continue offering managers in those formats a high floor in Week 17, when the Patriots visit the Jets.

Bates made his lone field-goal attempt and all three PATs in Sunday's 29-24 loss to the Steelers.

Bates' lone field goal was good from 36 yards. The second-year kicker has struggled a bit this season, making just 79 percent of his field-goal attempts after converting 90 percent as a rookie. However, he's remained strong in the PAT department, with NFL-highs in extra-point attempts (54) and conversions (52) through 15 contests. Bates will again be kicking in a dome this upcoming Thursday against the Vikings in Minnesota.

Henry hauled in six of seven targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-24 win over the Ravens.

Henry made his mark on Sunday Night Football in the fourth quarter when he slipped behind the coverage for a short touchdown grab in the back corner of the end zone. The veteran tight end was held to one catch when the Patriots came out of the bye in Week 15, so fantasy managers were pleased to see a return to form against Baltimore. Henry currently sits 11 yards shy of the career-high mark of 674 receiving yards he posted in 2024. Next Sunday's matchup versus the Jets presents a golden opportunity for Henry to reach that personal milestone in Week 17.

Aubrey made his lone field-goal attempt and both extra-point tries in Sunday's 34-17 loss to the Chargers.

After missing a pair of field goals in last Sunday night's loss to the Vikings, Aubrey bounced back to make all three of his kicks against the Chargers. On the season, Aubrey has made 32 of 36 field-goal attempts and 42 of 43 PATs across 15 contests.

Huntley completed nine of 10 passes for 65 yards in Sunday's 28-24 loss to the Patriots. He added two rushes for two yards.

Huntley took over for an injured Lamar Jackson late in the second quarter and managed the team to a pair of scoring drives in the second half. While he passed for a modest yardage total, he kept the offense on schedule, showing strong rapport with DeAndre Hopkins in the process. It's unclear if Huntley will be called upon for Baltimore's Week 17 matchup against the Packers on Saturday night, though the offense may struggle to move the ball in a tough matchup if Jackson remains sidelined.

Stevenson rushed eight times for 51 yards and a touchdown while catching two of three targets for 27 yards in Sunday's 28-24 win over Baltimore.

Rookie starter TreVeyon Henderson was ruled out at halftime after suffering a concussion in the first half. Stevenson played a large part in the Patriots erasing an 11-point deficit in the fourth quarter when he scampered for a 21-yard touchdown with less than three minutes remaining in the contest. The veteran backup is no stranger to starting for New England, so he would immediately become a hot waiver add if Henderson is unable to clear the league's concussion protocol in time for next Sunday's tilt against the Jets.

Gonzalez made both of his field-goal attempts and two of three PATs in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Cardinals.

Gonzalez converted 49- and 40-yard field goals versus Arizona but missed a second-quarter extra point following a six-yard Kyle Pitts touchdown. Gonzalez has kicked in seven games for Atlanta this season, going 13-for-15 on field-goal tries and 13-for-14 on extra points. He's not an overly exciting fantasy kicker headed into next Monday night's game against the Rams.
