One thing to know: Cam Akers was the top-scoring running back in fantasy last week and is still available in more than 30% of leagues. If he's available in your league, you probably want to pick him up. Even if you don't start him, it will prevent your opponent in the fantasy championship from playing him against you.
D'Onta Foreman, RB, Carolina PanthersD'Onta Foreman runs with the ball against the Detroit Lions.
One thing to know: The Panthers ran all over the Lions last weekend, with D'Onta Foreman leading the way with 165 yards on the ground. While the Tampa Bay rushing defense that Carolina will play next week should put up a better fight than Detroit did, Foreman should still get enough work to provide some fantasy value.
Tyler Allgeier, RB, Atlanta FalconsTyler Allgeier runs for a touchdown against the Carolina Panthers.
One thing to know: The Falcons have given Tyler Allgeier a lot of touches in recent weeks, with 35 carries and 38.3 total fantasy points over his past two games. It's the most involved he's been in the Atlanta offense all season.
Greg Dortch, WR, Arizona CardinalsGreg Dortch escapes a tackle against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
One thing to know: Greg Dortch got a season-high 11 targets last week and caught 10 of them. While it feels like a bad time to be buying into the Cardinals offense, given they are currently on their third-string quarterback, Dortch looked like a special player against the Buccaneers defense.
Jahan Dotson, WR, Washington CommandersJahan Dotson celebrates a catch in the end zone against the Detroit Lions.
One thing to know: Over the past three weeks, Jahan Dotson is averaging nearly 80 yards per game on five receptions on eight targets. He's scored in three straight games.
Isaiah Hodgins, WR, New York GiantsIsaiah Hodgins reels in a catch against the Minnesota Vikings.
One thing to know: Isaiah Hodgins has scored at least 15 fantasy points in three of his past four games, and the Giants have a favorable matchup against the Colts next weekend. If you're in need of a potential breakout game off the waiver wire, he's as good a bet as you will find.

ESPN fantasy % rostered: 15.5%
Week 16 stats: 1 interception, 1 fumble recovery, 3 sacks, 3 points against — 13 fantasy points
One thing to know: If you have been streaming fantasy defenses on your way to the championship game, the Jaguars are the most important addition you can make this week. They have hit at least 11 fantasy points in three straight games, are steamrolling to a potential spot in the playoffs, and are facing a Texans team with nothing to play for but the first overall pick. Even if you already have a defense you trust, if your opponent in the fantasy championship has been streaming, add Jacksonville before they can.
