Curtis Samuel appears to have regressed in Fantasy Football over the last several weeks. Three of his four worst fantasy performances this year have all come in the last six games. While the Washington Commanders should receive an offensive boost with Carson Wentz returning, Terry McLaurin and Jahan Dotson appear to be the preferred receiving options.

Adam Thielen - Minnesota Vikings vs. Green Bay Packers

Adam Thielen has been a boom-or-bust wide receiver in Fantasy Football. In the last six weeks, he has recorded two top 12 finishes, while also finishing outside the top 40 three times. The Green Bay Packers rank inside the top eight against fantasy wide receivers, so Thielen could be in for a let-down performance in Week 17 of the 2022 Fantasy Football season.

Darius Slayton - New York Giants vs. Indianapolis Colts

Darius Slayton emerged as the top wide receiver for Daniel Jones during the 2022 season. He has led the New York Giants in most receiving categories over the last six weeks, including being targeted 40 times. He's still a risky Fantasy Football player in Week 17, as he's recorded just two top 20 finishies this year. The Indianapolis Colts also allow the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers.
