Fantasy Football Week 16 Starts of the Week: All or Nothing

With so many questions on whether we would even have a season, finally, we have made it to the fantasy championship. Congratulations on making it through this unprecedented journey, it wasn’t easy but you got through it. With week 16 being the final week of fantasy for most leagues, starting these players could help you secure your championship.

Jalen Hurts, Philadelphia Eagles, Quarterback

After totaling four touchdowns along with 338 yards through the air and another 68 on the ground, Hurts is a must-start this week. Given his safe rushing floor including over 100 yards a week ago, now facing a Cowboys defense that struggles to defend the pass and the run, sets up Hurts to deliver another huge performance this weekend.

David Johnson, Houston Texans, Running Back

Coming off a season-high 106 receiving yards, along with 27 rushing yards on the ground, Johnson was able to take advantage of an increased role with Duke Johnson sidelined. He should continue to see plenty of work against a Bengals defense that just surrendered 107 yards and a touchdown to Snell.

Rashard Higgins, Cleveland Browns, Wide Receiver

In his last three appearances, Higgins has posted at least 68 yards and found the endzone twice in that span. Since Odell Beckham Jr. went down with a season-ending injury, Higgins has seen an increased role and been productive. He should be able to continue his production against a struggling Jets’ secondary that should allow Higgins to see plenty of opportunities this Sunday.

Austin Hooper, Cleveland Browns, Tight End

Hooper has found the endzone twice in his last three games and has the chance to do it again against a Jets defense that has allowed the most points and touchdowns, 13, to tight ends this season.
