Welcome to the 2021 Fantasy Football Week 16 Rankings!
Wow, what a crazy week we had. COVID ran through the NFL and had an impact on many games. The Raiders/Browns was moved from Saturday to Monday. The WFT/Eagles and Seahawks/Rams were moved to Tuesday.
On top of that, we had many question marks all week as to who was actually going to be active. Even still we saw players that were activated late in the week off COVID-IR not play as much as usual. This led to many upsets in the first week of the playoffs.
All in all, it was a stressful Week 15 and one we got very unpredictable results. Hopefully, you were able to escape the craziness (or had a bye) and this week will get back to more normal. Of course, that seems unlikely to happen as we already have news that the Chiefs have multiple positive tests.
