1. QB Brock Purdy (Proj: 19.5 / DK $6,200)
Brock Purdy enters this game well rested after a bye week, and will be up against a struggling Titans’ defense. Tennessee surrendered 37.5 FPTS to Cleveland’s Shedeur Sanders last week, and are overall the 24th ranked defense against QBs this season.
2. WR Chris Olave (Proj: 17.1 / DK $6,200)
In what has been a season to forget in New Orleans, Chris Olave has been one of their bright spots on offense, averaging 14.5 FPTS per game. He has the 4th most targets amongst WRs this season (120) and faces a Carolina secondary who surrendered 24.4 FPTS to him back in Week 10.
3. RB Travis Etienne (Proj: 16.2 / DK $6,500)
Travis Etienne has been dominant since his Week 9 bye week, averaging 16.4 FPTS per game. In those 6 games, he’s totaled 504 yards and 6 touchdowns to help propel the Jaguars to the top spot in the AFC South. He faces a Jets’ defense that ranks 30th against RBs this season, so expect a lot of production from Etienne on Sunday.
4. RB Derrick Henry (Proj: 16.1 / DK $7,300)
Derrick Henry is another RB who has performed well since his bye week, averaging 17.3 FPTS per game since Week 8. Two weeks ago, he averaged 6.0 yards per carry against the Bengals, but was only limited to 10 carries due to the Ravens getting blown out early. With Cincinnati ranked 32nd against RBs this season, Henry should perform well given they don’t get blown out again.
5. TE George Kittle (Proj: 12.2 / DK $5,400)
George Kittle is averaging 18.15 FPTS per game in his last 4 weeks, totaling 296 yards and 3 touchdowns. As stated earlier, the Titans struggled against the Browns, including 114 yards and a touchdown to TE Harold Fannin Jr. Kittle has the most targets (21) since Purdy’s return in Week 11, so we can expect him to continue to get the ball this Sunday.
