Lance started slowly against the Texans but looked great as a dual threat in the end. Wilson has gotten hot late in the season with his weapons booming again, and he should get into another shootout with Kyler Murray. Hill got warmed up in his return against the Panthers and should be game to put up good all-around points with the playoffs on the line for New Orleans. Kirk Cousins, Vikings (if he returns, vs CHI).
Quarterback | Running back | Wide receiver | Tight end | D/ST | Kicker Fantasy Football Week 18 Start 'Em: Quarterbacks QB must-starts WEEK 18 FANTASY RANKINGS (PPR & STANDARD):

The North-winning Bengals, however, could opt to take no chances with QB Joe Burrow (knee) and other regulars in Cleveland. The Titans, Chiefs, Bills, Patriots, Colts, Chargers, Raiders, Steelers, and Ravens have something of note on the line in Week 18.
There are fewer of those concerns in the AFC. It all depends how much seeding matters to those teams. Also in the conference, the East-winning Cowboys and the wild-card Eagles might treat their Saturday night affair as a preseason game, keeping out quarterbacks Dak Prescott and Jalen Hurts and the principals around them. 1 seed in the NFC, are the one team guaranteed to sit starters on Sunday, including Aaron Rodgers, Aaron Jones and Davante Adams, and maybe even AJ Dillon. Beyond the usual late-season injury and COVID concerns in 2021-22, however, you need to worry about teams resting players. If your season is over after either winning or losing a title last week, it also would not be a bad time to get your final fix before the NFL playoffs by playing DFS or setting up an extra mini league. While most season-long leagues wrapped up in the new penultimate Week 17 to avoid the possibility of teams resting key players, some will play on through this week's games and thus require lineup advice.
