Thursday Night Football

New Orleans @ L.A. Rams

Team Totals: Rams 24, Saints 20

Derek Carr reached 20 fantasy points for the first time all year in Week 15’s win over the Giants but looks unlikely to have top WR Chris Olave (ankle) against a Rams pass defense yielding the NFL’s fourth-lowest completion rate (59.8%) and 12th-fewest yards per pass attempt (6.8). Carr also remains at risk of being pulled in scoring position for Taysom Hill, who isn’t listed on Week 16’s injury report. Carr is a low-ceiling QB2 play. … Averaging 18.9 touches for 95.8 yards and 0.8 TDs over New Orleans’ last four games, Alvin Kamara is a matchup-agnostic RB2 with RB1 upside against a Rams defense permitting the league’s third-fewest fantasy running back points. Kamara only out-snapped No. 2 RB Jamaal Williams 32 to 29 in last week’s victory, while Williams logged touch counts of 9 and 11 in the Saints’ last two games. Williams remains playable only on one-game DFS slates, but he is meaningfully cutting into Kamara’s weekly work.

In Olave’s Week 15 absence against the G-Men, Carr didn’t target a single Saints pass catcher more than five times. Lynn Bowden ran as New Orleans’ No. 1 wideout in terms of snaps with Rashid Shaheed right behind him and A.T. Perry and Keith Kirkwood sharing No. 3 duties.
