Well, we made it (some of us did), most fantasy football regular seasons are in the books (MNF pending) and now the real fun starts. Hopefully you were able to punch that ticket into the playoffs or even if you were out of it, you made sure someone else didn’t make it to the dance. Did your fantasy teams suffer major injuries? You’re preaching to the choir. It happens, the big games, the bad ones, you have to accept it all (or not). You can bet your bottom dollar that a guy you weren’t thinking of two weeks ago is going to help push you through this time of year. But who will it be?
STOCK UP
RB – Ty Chandler, Minnesota Vikings
Chandler fantasy managers may be sitting on a back who stands to gain a considerable workload after the ankle injury to Alexander Mattison. For what it’s worth, Mattison was having a solid day in Week 14 after going 10-66-0 on the ground. After his injury, Chandler ended up finishing with 15 touches (tied for a season-high), but for only 42 yards. Granted, the Vikings/Raiders matchup ended up being a 3-0 barn burner. In any event, should Mattison miss any time whether it’s a week, two weeks etc, Chandler should handle the majority of the workload in his absence. With upcoming games against the Bengals, Lions and Packers, it won’t be an easy road by any means, but in the fantasy playoffs running backs with large workloads are hard to find.
WR – Drake London, Atlanta Falcons
In Week 14 against the Buccaneers London recorded 10 receptions for 172 yards (both career-highs) as his heroics nearly led the Falcons to victory. If he was in your fantasy lineup he certainly helped you there. Over his past three games he is WR19 in total points right behind Brandon Aiyuk and has an upcoming schedule that looks favorable. The Falcons will play the Panthers, Colts and Bears in the fantasy playoffs and with Desmond Ridder coming off a career-high 347 passing yards, the Falcons willingness to air it out bodes well for London.
