Week 17 Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Rankings: Chris Olave Into The Top 10

Welcome to Week 17 and the fantasy football championship! If you survived past the first two rounds, congratulations! Now, let’s win that league title (and bragging rights)!
The NFL slate is broken up into four days this week due to the Christmas holiday. On Thursday, the Cowboys will face the Commanders, the Vikings will host the Lions, and the Broncos will face the Chiefs in Kansas City.
Saturday includes two games, starting with the Texans and the Chargers and finishing with the Ravens at the Packers at Lambeau Field. There will be 10 games on Sunday, including the Sunday night contest, and the week ends as normal on Monday night.
This week’s biggest wide receiver ranking risers are Courtland Sutton, Chris Olave, and Mike Evans, all of whom have great matchups or are playing at an exceedingly high level lately. On the flip side, wideouts like Justin Jefferson, Ladd McConkey, and Michael Pittman Jr. have either seen their fantasy stats decline in recent weeks or could struggle against a tough opponent.
With that said, here are my complete fantasy football wide receiver rankings for Week 17 of the NFL season! Be sure to check back daily for updates!
