Davante Adams

LV Wide Receiver #17

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

Speaking to The Athletic’s Tashan Reed, Davante Adams said, “This is where I want to be,” when asked about where or not he wanted to play elsewhere in 2024.

Adams also said, “If I wanted to be gone, I’d be gone by now.” It’s hard to argue against that point. The 31-year-old receiver is coming off a 2023 campaign in which he went for 103-1,144-8 and has been named First-team All-Pro in three of his last four seasons. If Adams wanted to leave, the Raiders could still fetch decent trade value from a contender if the two sides wanted to move on from one another. Adams is heading into the third year of a five-year deal he signed with the Raiders during the 2022 offseason. Still a top producer at the position, Adams should have plenty of upside in 2024 as the Raiders continue to funnel him targets regardless of who is under center.

Amon-Ra St. Brown

DET Wide Receiver #14

Amon-Ra St. Brown caught 8-of-10 targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Lions’ Week 17 win over the 49ers.

St. Brown led the team in targets with 10 but finished third in receiving behind Jameson Williams and Sam LaPorta. He did contribute to another highlight play in the second quarter when he caught a short pass from quarterback jared Goff, pitched the football to Jameson Williams on a hook-and-ladder trick play, which Williams took to the house from 41 yards out. Head coach Dan Campbell told reporters his team would approach this game like any other regardless of it being meaningless in the standings in the conference, and the team did not disappoint with another 40-point effort. St. Brown is sure to be busy again in Week 18 when the Lions play for the No. 1 seed at home against the Vikings.

Sam LaPorta

DET Tight End #87

Sam LaPorta caught 6-of-8 targets for 64 yards and a touchdown in the Lions’ Week 17 win over the 49ers.

LaPorta caught the second of three touchdown passes from quarterback Jared Goff as the Lions kept momentum heading into their conference-deciding home matchup with the division rival Vikings in Week 18. The touchdown pushes his season total to seven, all of which have come in the previous 11 games. Expect LaPorta to remain busy against the pass-funnel Vikings next week.

Jameson Williams

DET Wide Receiver #9

Jameson Williams caught 5-of-8 targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in the Lions’ Week 17 win over the 49ers, adding a touchdown on two carries for negative two yards.

Williams got the Lions on the board with a three-yard touchdown carry in the first quarter before scoring on a hook-and-ladder trick play from a ball thrown to Amon-Ra St. Brown, who then pitched the football to Williams for a 41-yard receiving score in the second quarter. Williams tied with tight end Sam LaPorta for second on the team in targets behind the 10 of St. Brown, but led the team in receiving. Williams is sure to be busy in Week 18 when the Lions host the Vikings to decide the NFC champion.

Jahmyr Gibbs

DET Running Back #26

Jahmyr Gibbs rushed 18 times for 117 yards and a touchdown in the Lions’ Week 17 win over the 49ers, adding 46 yards on four receptions.

Gibbs again operated as the clear lead back against the 49ers, although he did cede seven carries and two targets to Craig Reynolds and three carries to Jermar Jefferson. Even so, he returned yet another elite fantasy score in the absence of David Montgomery, the latter of whom was not sent to injured reserve as he attempts to come back in the playoffs. The Lions head into a Week 18 home matchup with the 14-2 Vikings to decide the winner of the NFC Conference and recipient of the lone playoff bye out of the NFC. Gibbs should be busy once again in the winner-take-all affair.

Jared Goff

DET Quarterback #16

Jared Goff completed 26-of-34 passes for 303 yards and three touchdowns in the Lions’ 40-34, Week 17 win over the 49ers.

Goff and the Lions fell behind early and took a 21-13 deficit into the half, eventually asserting their dominance after the break. His first touchdown pass of the evening came on a hook-and-ladder trick play, with a completed pass to Amon-Ra St. Brown who pitched the football to Jameson Williams for the score. He then threw second half touchdowns to tight end Sam LaPorta and alpha wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown to lead the Lions to their first road victory of the 49ers since 1975. The win sends the Lions to a 14-2 record, tied with the Vikings ahead of the two teams meeting in Week 18 to decide the winner of the NFC Conference and recipient of the conference’s only playoff bye.

Deebo Samuel Sr.

SF Wide Receiver #1

Samuel saw three early carries that resulted in 16 yards but managed just one target following the team’s first possession, taking a significant backseat to rookie Ricky Pearsall, who set a career high with 141 yards and a touchdown, George Kittle, who went for 112 yards, and Jauan Jennings, who tied for the team lead with 10 targets. For Samuel to be so little involved when quarterback Brock Purdy set his own career high with 377 pass yards speaks volumes to Samuel’s pedestrian season this year. Further complicating matters for Deebo was the departure of Purdy with a throwing arm injury with under a minute to play, something that could force backup quarterback Joshua Dobbs to start in the team’s season finale against the Cardinals.

Jauan Jennings

SF Wide Receiver #15

Jauan Jennings caught 7-of-10 targets for 67 yards in the 49ers’ Week 17 loss to the Lions.

Jennings tied for the team lead in targets with 10 but was vastly overshadowed by rookie Ricky Pearsall, who set a career high with 141 yards and a score, and tight end George Kittle, who caught all eight of his targets for 112 yards. Further complicating matters for Jennings heading into a Week 18 divisional tilt against the Cardinals was the departure of starting quarterback Brock Purdy with a throwing arm injury with under a minute to play. Backup quarterback Joshua Dobbs was Jennings’ teammate in college, something that could influence target dispersal should Dobbs start against the Cardinals.

George Kittle

SF Tight End #85

George Kittle caught all eight targets for 112 yards in the 49ers’ Week 17 loss to the Lions.

Kittle remained Mr. Consistency as he caught all eight targets thrown his way, seven of which were thrown by starting quarterback Brock Purdy and one of which was thrown from backup quarterback Joshua Dobbs following Purdy’s departure with a throwing arm injury late in the fourth quarter. The nature of the injury and timing, with the team playing on Monday night, could lead to Dobbs starting under center in Week 18 when the 49ers take on the Cardinals. Dobbs has been known to target tight ends frequently throughout his career, something that late-season gamers would do well to take note of should he start next week.

Ricky Pearsall

SF Wide Receiver #14

Ricky Pearsall caught 8-of-10 targets for 141 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers’ Week 17 loss to the Lions, adding six yards on two carries.

Pearsall served as the team’s top option through the air throughout, scoring his touchdown on the team’s first possession on a three-yard strike from Brock Purdy. He would then see consistent usage the rest of the way en route to a career-high game, which coincided with a career-high night from Purdy in pass yards with 377. Pearsall could see one more game of featured usage in Week 18 against the Cardinals, although it could come with Joshua Dobbs throwing him the football after Purdy went down with an injury to his throwing arm with under a minute left to play against the Lions.

Isaac Guerendo

SF Running Back #31

Isaac Guerendo rushed nine times for 34 yards in the 49ers’ Week 17 loss to the Lions, adding 65 yards on four receptions.

It was never overly likely that Guerendo would find much room on the ground against the stout Detroit defensive front, but he more than overcame those shortcomings with a solid receiving line through the air. Guerendo entered the season as the third running back behind Christian McCaffrey and Jordan Mason, starting three games in his rookie season after the top two options experienced season-ending injuries. He performed well when called upon, most notably showcasing his receiving chops after converting from wide receiver in college. Guerendo should get one more start under his belt to end the regular season against the Cardinals in Week 18.
