Week 17 is always a little weird, and we're starting to get a clearer picture as to what regulars will be resting in the regular-season finale. The Chiefs won't push Patrick Mahomes, instead turning to Chad Henne to lead the offense in a meaningless Week 17 game. It's very likely that Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelce, Le'Veon Bell and Sammy Watkins could also be eased up on or just flat out inactive, so you're playing with fire by rostering any Chiefs in a game without consequence to them. The Vikings won't have Dalvin Cook on Sunday due to a personal matter, leading to Alexander Mattison likely leading the backfield and setting up as one of the stronger values at the RB spot. Speaking of RB values, Mike Davis won't play on Sunday for Carolina, leading to a much bigger workload for Rodney Smith. The Jags will be without James Robinson for a second straight week, giving Dare Ogunbowale another shot to lead the backfield after he turned in a solid yet uninspring effort in a blowout loss to Chicago. The Steelers are looking towards the playoffs and will therefore give Ben Roethlisberger a week of rest and let Mason Rudolph run the offense.

James Robinson has reportedly already been ruled out for Sunday. The Jaguars' RB situation now is almost a complete mystery, with Robinson essentially handling all the work so far this season. Dare Ogunbowale and Devine Ozigbo are the two top active backs, and Nathan Cottrell will also be active. Playing any RB here will have a lot of risk, but there is some nice value if you're able to pick the right back.

Chris Thompson has been placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list, ruling him out for Week 7. This should mean James Robinson will get all the work he can handle. Devine Ozigbo and Dare Ogunbowale will work behind Robinson, but they're unlikely to receive any type of real work.
