Jonathan Stewart, RB, Carolina Panthers

DraftKings Price: $3,700

After a massive 103-yard, 3-touchdown game in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings, Jonathan Stewart fell back down to earth last week as the game plan called for a heavy dose of Christian McCaffrey against the Green Bay Packers. This week's game script should help turn the fantasy output back Stewart's way.

The Carolina Panthers enter Week 16 as 10.0-point favorites with an implied total of 28.25 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If Carolina can get a comfy lead, it will like be Stewart toting the rock consistently in the second half.

The Bucs have given up the sixth-most DraftKings points to opposing backs this season, and in the past five weeks, they've been worse. During that stretch, they've given up at least 102 yards or a score to a rusher in each game, and they've allowed seven rushing touchdowns, as well.

Stewart rushed for only 34 yards in a low-scoring affair against Tampa in Week 8, but he did manage to find the end zone and salvage his day. In this one, expect his yardage to climb from that number. We project Stewart to finish with 11.2 points, returning the highest value on the slate at the position.
