Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love looks to get back into fantasy managers' good graces with a standout performance against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Love has been good, not great with three straight games where he hasn't been a fantasy QB1. The Packers being primarily run-focused hasn't helped with running back Josh Jacobs' eight touchdowns in his last four games. Getting Romeo Doubs (concussion) should help Love as Doubs has cleared concussion protocol and will be active for his first game action since Week 12. Love will have his full complement of pass-catchers back, but Seattle's pass defense has been excellent lately as they've allowed the fourth-lowest yards per attempt to quarterbacks since Week 11. Love is more in the streaming category of fantasy quarterback rather than a locked-in starter for Week 15.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards is an uninspiring fantasy option in a Week 15 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Edwards has been running like he's out of gas all season, as shown by a 13% missed tackle rate and just 2.2 yards after contact per attempt. Still, he maintains a key role on the Chargers offense, as he's recorded 43% or more of the team's offensive snaps over the past two weeks, including 42% of the red zone snaps. He's a thoroughly touchdown-dependent option in fantasy right now, with most fantasy playoff teams almost certainly rostering multiple stronger options.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Kimani Vidal has seen his role grow lately but heads into Week 15 with a tough matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Vidal played on 53% of the team's offensive snaps in Week 14, but that translated to just eight carries for 34 yards and no receptions. He seems to be slowly but surely taking over the backfield from an ineffective Gus Edwards while starter J.K. Dobbins (knee) remains out. Despite his growth into a larger role, Week 15 will have him face a Tampa Bay defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest rushing yards per game since Week 9, making Vidal an RB4 with limited upside.

The Washington Commanders defense should be viewed as a high-end streaming option facing a depleted New Orleans Saints offense. With Derek Carr (hand/concussion) banged up, the Saints are turning to Jake Haener to operate as the QB1. Haener will have a difficult task ahead of him as his top wide receivers, Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee), and tight end Taysom Hill (knee) will not be available. The Saints have also not scored more than 14 points in each of their past two games. In addition, the Commanders will welcome four-time Pro Bowler Marshon Lattimore to their starting lineup. In their previous game, the Commanders tallied two sacks and allowed 19 points to the Tennessee Titans. Given New Orleans' struggles, the Commanders should be poised for a nice showing and have a clear path to a top-5 finish this weekend.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Stone Smartt is set to take over the starting role in a Week 15 game against the Tampa Bay Bucs. Smartt took over in the second half last week after starter Will Dissly (shoulder) was forced to leave the game. With Dissly still recovering, Smartt will be the starter in at least Week 15 from the first snap of the game. Last week, in the second half, Smartt saw a 25% target share and put up three catches for 54 yards. More importantly, it was clear that the Chargers had faith in him as a pass catcher on critical plays. This week, he gets a nice soft landing against a Bucs defense that has allowed the second-most receiving yards to opposing tight ends. Smartt was one of the more popular waiver wire grabs this week, and he finds himself near the top of TE2 rankings with some nice touchdown upside.

Miami Dolphins linebacker Bradley Chubb (knee) was limited in practice all week and is questionable to play on Sunday against the Houston Texans in Week 15. Meanwhile, offensive tackle Terron Armstead (knee) is doubtful to play after missing practice all week. Chubb was designated to return from the Physically Unable to Perform last week but did not play in the Week 14 overtime win over the division-rival New York Jets. The 28-year-old has had another full week of practice, but it doesn't mean he'll be activated from the PUP list on Saturday in order to make his 2024 debut on Sunday in Houston. And whenever Chubb is active for the first time this year, we'd be surprised if he wasn't eased into the rotation along Miami's defensive line. Chubb was having the best year of his career in 2023 in his first year in Miami before tearing his ACL in Week 17. He'll be a huge boost to their pass rush down the stretch.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus is worth paying attention to in Week 15 as he may contend for a starting role with Noah Brown (ribs) injured. While Dyami Brown is the likely candidate, Zaccheaus should have the edge over rookie Luke McCaffrey for the No.3 spot on the offense. When Noah Brown left Week 13's game early with an injury, Dyami Brown saw the greatest uptick in snaps, with Zaccheaus following closely behind him. While Dyami Brown has run more routes than Zaccheaus this season, the latter has seen more targets in a small sample size (2.9 targets per game compared to Brown's 2.1), which also suggests Zaccheaus could find a potential role in this offense that is conducive to deeper formats. For now, Zaccheaus is worth following closely in deeper 3WR formats, as he could emerge as the new option in the slot for Jayden Daniels.

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz should be viewed as a solid TE1 in Week 15 when he faces the New Orleans Saints. Over the past three contests, the veteran tight end has found the end zone in each contest and averaged 7.0 targets per game. In addition, No.2 wide receiver Noah Brown (kidney) will not suit up, which should open up even more targets for Ertz. Even though the New Orleans Saints have defended opposing tight ends well, allowing the tenth-fewest PPR points to this position, fantasy managers in 12-team formats should feel comfortable starting Ertz in all forts as he should see a hefty target share as he looks to extend his scoring streak to four games.

Washington Commanders kicker Zane Gonzalez (foot) is off the injury report and will once again operate as the No.1 kicker for the Commanders. This weekend, he will face the New Orleans Saints, who have allowed the 16th-most PPR points to opposing kickers and is a viable streaming option in deeper formats. Over his past three games, Gonzalez has gone 3-for-5 on field goals and 10-for-10 on extra points. Gonzalez has replaced Austin Seibert (groin), who is currently on the injured reserve. While Gonzalez has struggled at times filling in for Siebert, playing on a high-octane offense makes Gonzalez a viable streaming option in deeper formats in Week 15. Fantasy managers in 12+ team formats looking for a kicker should consider adding Gonzalez off the waiver wire.

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. will look to claim the No. 2 role behind Brian Robinson Jr. this weekend but is not a viable option in standard formats facing the New Orleans Saints. In Week 13 with Austin Ekeler (concussion) sitting out, Rodriguez logged seven more carries than the presumed No. 2 option Jeremy McNichols. Rodriguez performed very well, averaging just over 7.0 yards per carry in that contest and even added a late goal-line touchdown. While Rodriguez could see opportunities late in the game if the Commanders have a sizeable lead, fantasy managers should only view the 24-year-old as a high-risk flex option in deep 14-plus-team formats, as Robinson will see most of the work on the afternoon.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has been a touchdown-scoring machine for the Packers as of late and will look to continue that run going when Green Bay heads west to Seattle to take on the Seahawks in Week 15. Jacobs has scored eight touchdowns in his last four games, including two of those games with three touchdowns scored. Averaging 73 rushing yards, 33 receiving yards, and 24.6 fantasy points per game in the last four contests, Jacobs has been RB2 in that span only behind just Saquon Barkley. Seattle has given up the seventh-most rushing yards per game (109.5) this season, so with the Packers being a run-heavy team overall and gladly giving Jacobs all he can handle in terms of rushing volume, consider Jacobs a locked-in RB1 for Week 15.

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker is in the midst of the worst season in his 13-year career. He's only made 70.4% of his 27 field goal attempts this year while missing two extra points on top of it. The New York Giants are right around the middle of the pack against opposing kickers as they give up an average of 8.2 fantasy points per contest. Tucker may have used the bye week in a big way for his confidence, but he's posted eight weeks outside of K1 territory this season. His ceiling is still one of the best kickers in the league, but fantasy managers will want to temper expectations with how this season has gone.

From RotoBaller

Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols should not be started in any formats in Week 15 when he faces the New Orleans Saints. In Week 13, McNichols logged just six carries, which was the third-highest on the team. This was surprising as Austin Ekeler (concussion) did not play, and Chris Rodriguez Jr. surpassed him on the depth chart. McNichols has consistently been deployed as a depth option in the backfield, averaging a cumulative 5.0 yards per carry across 50 total attempts this season. While Ekeler will still be on the injured reserve, fantasy managers should not trust McNichols as a viable option, as he could very well cede No.2 duties to Rodriguez for the second straight week. As a result, fantasy managers should keep McNichols out of their starting lineup for the foreseeable future.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin is set for a strong showing this weekend against the New Orleans Saints and should be viewed as a WR1 in all formats. In his previous game, McLaurin enjoyed his third two-touchdown performance of the season against the Tennessee Titans. Since Week 3, the Ohio State product has averaged a stellar 17.5 PPR points per game with nine total scores. In addition, McLaurin has averaged a solid 77.9 yards per contest during this span. With Noah Brown (kidney) injured and likely out for the season, McLaurin could be in store for a larger target share during the fantasy playoffs. Facing the Saints, who have allowed the ninth-most PPR points to opposing wideouts, should set up McLaurin for a WR1 finish in the bayou.

Washington Commanders wide receiver Dyami Brown should be poised to step up to the No.2 role with Noah Brown (kidney) sitting out, making him a viable desperation flex option in Week 15 facing the New Orleans Saints. Brown has consistently operated as the No.3 wide receiver in the offense this season. When Noah Brown left Week 13's game early with an injury, Dyami Brown saw the greatest uptick in playing time over Olamide Zaccheaus and rookie Luke McCaffrey. Through 13 games this season, Brown has averaged just 2.1 targets per game but saw that number increase to a season-high five in Week 13. Even though he has had limited opportunities, Brown has flashed at times, averaging 15.8 yards per reception. Brown does carry some upside in a favorable matchup but comes with high risk, given his limited proven production.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs (concussion) has cleared concussion protocol after three consecutive full practices and will be active for the Packers' Week 15 game against the Seattle Seahawks. Doubs has missed two full games since suffering a concussion during the Packers' Week 12 game against the San Francisco 49ers. As a fantasy asset, Doubs has been hit or miss in terms of scoring fantasy points but has been the most consistent player in terms of being on the field as he's run routes on 85-95% of the Packers' dropbacks when active in full games. Against the Seahawks, Doubs is a volatile low-end flex option.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) upgraded to a full practice participant on Friday and was removed from the final Week 15 injury report. Lamb will be available to play on Sunday on the road against the Carolina Panthers and should be locked into starting fantasy lineups. The 25-year-old pass-catcher has been battling through a sprained AC joint in his shoulder since injuring it in Week 9, but he hasn't missed any games as a result. Carolina's defense has stiffened up in recent weeks and is playing much better, but Lamb should be able to do damage against them this weekend as quarterback Cooper Rush's top target in the passing game. Lamb doesn't have the type of upside he did before Dak Prescott's (hamstring) season-ending injury, but he's been the WR20 in half-PPR scoring in the last five weeks with 32 receptions for 313 yards and a touchdown.

From RotoBaller

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers is usually one of the safer options at the position since he commands the largest target share on the team by a wide margin. He's seen 94 targets this year while the second-most has 55. Against the New York Giants, Flowers should still see plenty of targets, but the Ravens could go run-heavy since that's the weakest part of the defense. They allow the sixth-fewest passing yards per game and have only given up 14 touchdowns through the air all season. While Flowers usually has a solid floor, his ceiling looks to be around the WR2 territory again.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton has seen his fantasy value take a dip over the last few weeks. However, Otton was able to have some success during last week's game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Otton hauled in three of his four targets for 70 yards in the win. This marked the first time that Otton has hit the 70-yard mark since Week 9. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Otton to produce his TE1 numbers anymore with wide receiver Mike Evans healthy now. Otton has been held to five receptions or less in each of the last four games. He should be considered a TE2 for the Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels should be viewed as a high-end QB1 in all formats, facing the New Orleans Saints this weekend. Over his past two contests, Daniels has surprised 30.0 PPR points in each game and tallied seven scores during this span. Over these two games, the LSU product averaged 290.0 total yards per game. This is a nice improvement compared to the modest 13.0 PPR points he averaged during Weeks 10 and 11. Daniels has surpassed all expectations and provided elite fantasy production due to his dual-threat playstyle all season. Even though he will be without his No.2 wideout Noah Brown (kidney) he should be viewed as an elite QB1 despite facing a New Orleans defense that has allowed the 14th-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs this season.
