Wan’Dale Robinson, WR, New York Giants (at LV)
One of the biggest surprises of the season has been the play of Wan’Dale Robinson. Of course, Malik Nabers’ injury played a big role in Robinson’s strong performance. But he still had to deliver. And he has…just not last week.
In a game where Jaxson Dart could not get anything going, Robinson caught three passes for 19 yards. It was his worst fantasy outing since Week 4. Fortunately, there’s reason to think things will turn around this week.
The Giants get a nice Week 17 matchup against a Raiders defense allowing the ninth-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. Given how poorly attempting just 13 passes in a game went for the Giants last week, expect a little bit more passing volume this week.
Since Week 6, Robinson has failed to reach double-digit fantasy points a mere three times, but never in consecutive weeks. He should get back on track when fantasy managers need it most.
Jakobi Meyers, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars (vs. IND)
What a strange game. Trevor Lawrence once again played out of his mind, throwing for three touchdowns. Yet, none of them went to Jakobi Meyers. In fact, of Lawrence’s 23 completions and 279 yards, just four for 45 went to Meyers. It marked the first time in five weeks that Meyers failed to reach double-digit fantasy points.
Even amidst the down game, Meyers still saw eight targets, trailing only Parker Washington for the team lead. He remains well ahead of Brian Thomas Jr., who has been relegated to the fifth option in the passing game and is completely irrelevant.
Meyers should get back on track against a Colts defense he just posted 14.8 fantasy points against in Week 14.

The Colts allow the 12th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. They are a pass funnel defense. With how well Lawrence is playing and the importance of this game for playoff positioning, Meyers is poised for a strong finish to the fantasy season.
Amon-Ra St. Brown, WR
Amon-Ra St. Brown almost had the assist of the year on Sunday, but that play got called back, and he was otherwise quiet in the loss to the Steelers (54 yards on nine targets).
You take the punch and move on. That’s not fun analysis, but it’s accurate. St. Brown has hit at least 14.5 expected points in each of his last nine healthy games, and he’s been a producer over expectation for as long as he’s been in the league.
St. Brown averages 10 targets and 92 receiving yards per game in his career against the Vikes, and he saw a pair of end zone targets when they met in Week 9 this season. I’ll say he lives up to those averages and solidifies his Round 1 status for redraft 2026 purposes.
Jameson Williams, WR
Williams notched 66 yards against these Vikings back in Week 9, his first career game against them with 45+. Their aggressive style, in the past, has put a cap on how vertical JaMo can get (7.4 aDOT in five career matchups), and while that’s been a limiting factor in the past, this appears to be the best version of him that we’ve seen to date.
In four straight games, Williams has a 20+ yard reception and at least nine targets, marrying the upside with the volume that we’ve dreamt of since he was drafted.

Those are the counting numbers any boxscore watcher is aware of, but how about three straight with an end zone target after not seeing such an opportunity this season prior? Or consecutive games with five fourth-quarter targets?
This profile points straight up, and I don’t expect that momentum to slow down this week or next season. I’ve got Williams ranked as a WR1 this week, which could put you in a great position to win before we get to the weekend.
