Sizzlers

RB D’Andre Swift, Detroit Lions: The rookie has had his growing pains, but things are starting to click. Against Washington, Swift was a oneman wrecking crew both on the ground and as a receiver.

RB Josh Jacobs, Las Vegas Raiders: Jacobs has faced a string of good run defenses lately, but he shredded the Denver Broncos for 112 yards and a pair of touchdowns. The tide turns with a nice string of matchups the next four weeks.

WR Cole Beasley, Buffalo Bills: Beasley has carved out a significant role as QB Josh Allen’s go-to possession receiver, catching 11 of 13 targets for 109 yards and a TD at Arizona.

QB Tom Brady, Tampa Bay Buccaneers: Brady heard the naysayers loud and clear. Rebounding versus Carolina, he threw for 341 yards with three TDs and no intercepti­ons.

RB Nyheim Hines, Indianapol­is Colts: After scoring twice and leading the team in rushing, Hines is now on the precipice of overtaking Jonathan Taylor and Jordan Wilkins for the starting job.

Fizzlers

RB Phillip Lindsay, Denver Broncos: In a timeshare with Melvin Gordon and Royce Freeman, Lindsay has been the oddman out after respectabl­y producing in Weeks 6-8 while Gordon was sidelined.

RB James White, New England Patriots: White has essentiall­y disappeare­d as Damien Harris has taken over the rushing load. He has just four carries in his last four games.

WR Travis Fulgham, Philadelph­ia Eagles: Fulgham exploded onto the scene with four touchdowns in his first five games. But in Week 10, he had one reception for 8 yards.

TE Jared Cook, New Orleans Saints: With Michael Thomas back and Drew Brees possibly out for several weeks, Cook’s fantasy future looks grim, especially after he went without a catch on Sunday.

TE Evan Engram, New York Giants: Entering Week 10, Engram was targeted 29 times in three previous games. Against the Eagles, he had three passes come his way for 15 yards.
