Baker Mayfield Remains Elite Option For Week 16

Friday, December 20, 5:07 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (knee) has been removed from the injury report after getting in back-to-back full practice sessions. That means, Mayfield will be good to go for his plus-matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 16. Mayfield has been one of the best fantasy QBs all season long. The 29-year-old has thrown seven touchdowns over his last two games and should remain an elite option for this weekend. Fantasy managers shouldn't have to think twice about plugging in Mayfield as a QB1 for Week 16.

Bucky Irving Has High-End RB2 Value

Friday, December 20, 5:12 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving (hip, back) is ready to go for Week 16 after getting through a full practice session on Friday. Irving was limited during the first two practice sessions of the week, but has been removed from the injury report after getting in a full session to end the week. Irving has rushed for over 70 yards in four of his last five games. Irving has two 100-plus yard games in two of his last three outings. The only thing holding him back is the fact that he remains in a committee with Rachaad White in the backfield. Despite that, Irving should still be able to produce high-end RB2 value for the Week 16 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.
