Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. Brown returned from injured reserve in Week 16 against the Houston Texans. Brown was second on the team in catches and targets on 27% of snaps in his first game back. The 27-year-old demonstrated his ability to get open in crucial situations and make explosive plays, which bodes well for his production moving forward. Brown will hope to be more involved against the Steelers, who rank ninth in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. Brown is ranked WR47 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, putting him in flex range this week. It won't be easy to start Brown in the fantasy playoffs with just one game under his belt this season, but fantasy managers can consider it.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams got loose for an 82-yard touchdown reception and lit up the stat sheet with five catches for 143 receiving yards and a touchdown in the Week 16 win over the division-rival Chicago Bears. He did most of his damage on one play which he can do with his elite speed but he rewarded fantasy managers who took a chance on him in playoff matchups. Williams got behind the Chicago defense, hauled in the long pass from Jared Goff, and then raced the rest of the way for a touchdown. He saw seven targets in this game and made the most of them. With the healthy target total and his breakaway potential, Williams is looking like a solid option moving forward.
