We did it, Happy New Year! Here’s to 2021 being a much better year for everyone out there. Justin Jefferson has been a popular target for me in this article, and I’m going back to the well this week. I’m taking Justin Jefferson (Min) over 80.5 receiving yards (100 pts) as he looks to go out with a bang by breaking a couple of rookie records against this putrid Lions defense. He needs 47 receiving yards to top Randy Moss’s Vikings record of 1313 yards (1998) and Jefferson needs 111 yards to break Anquan Boldin’s rookie record of 1367 yards (2003). The Lions just gave up 300 receiving yards to Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Antonio Brown last week in less than 60 minutes of action. I’m looking at another potential blow-up spot for my second prop and I’m grabbing Derrick Henry (Ten) over 120.5 rushing and receiving yards (100 pts). He had his best fantasy performance against this lowly Texans run defense in Week 6 when he posted 40.4 FP with 264/2 scrimmage. The Texans also just gave up 40/267/2 scrimmage to the likes of Samaje Perine and Giovani Bernard last week. For my final pick of the regular season, I’m fading Kyler Murray (Ari) under 300.5 passing and rushing yards (105 pts). Kyler will play through a leg injury this week and he’s averaged 5.0 YPA or worse in three of his last five games . He did run for 75 yards last week but that was before he picked up his leg injury at the very end of the game. Murray curbed his running in Weeks 11-13 when he posted just 15/61 rushing, and he posted 173/3 passing and 5/15 rushing against the Rams in one of those contests in Week 13. Thanks for joining the Fantasy Points family this season, and let’s get 2021 off on the right foot with our Week 17 picks. Good luck! — Tom Brolley
