Ross Dwelley Ruled Out For Week 18

San Francisco 49ers tight end Ross Dwelley (ankle) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Dwelley has not seen the field since Week 13 and will be held out of the regular season finale with the Niners having already locked up the No. 1 overall seed in the NFC and a first-round bye for the playoffs. The 28-year-old has just one reception all year for 12 yards on two targets. San Fran is going to rest a lot of players in this meaningless game, so fantasy managers should stay away from tight end George Kittle. Charlie Woerner and Brayden Willis should see most of the action at the position for the 49ers against LA, but neither of them will be recommended DFS dart throws.

Ray-Ray McCloud III, Jauan Jennings Listed As Questionable

San Francisco 49ers wide receivers Ray-Ray McCloud III (rib), Jauan Jennings (concussion) and Danny Gray (shoulder) are all questionable to play in the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Both the 49ers and Rams will be rested a lot of their regulars in this meaningless contest, so all three of McCloud, Jennings and Gray could see substantial offensive snaps on Sunday if they are active. The Niners will have to activate McCloud from Injured Reserve if they want him playing this weekend. The 27-year-old hasn't been active since Week 12. McCloud mostly works on special teams. Jennings has missed the last two games and has served as the No. 3 behind Deebo Samuel and Brandon Aiyuk for most of the year. Jennings would have the most appeal as a bargain-bin deep DFS sleeper this weekend if he's active, but fantasy managers would probably be wise to avoid San Fran's offense altogether this week.

Rondale Moore Too Risky Of A Start Against The Seahawks

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Rondale Moore's recent performance in the Cardinals' Week 17 victory over the Eagles, where he caught three passes for 26 yards and had two carries for eight yards, adds to a season marked by inconsistency. Despite consistent playing time, with a 60 percent share in 14 of 16 games, Moore has struggled to deliver significant yardage in most outings, with only five games surpassing 40 yards. Since quarterback Kyler Murray's return in Week 10, Moore's contributions have been limited, accumulating just 16 catches on 24 targets, six carries, 216 total yards, and one receiving touchdown in seven contests. Even though Moore and the Cardinal offense take on the Seahawk's defense in Week 18, which has conceded the eighth-most receptions to wide receivers, there's no guarantee of a breakthrough. To that end, fantasy managers should consider sitting Moore and opting for more reliable options to close out the year.

Darnell Mooney Won't Play In Season Finale

Chicago Bears wide receiver Darnell Mooney (concussion) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for the Week 18 regular season finale on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. Mooney will close out a disappointing campaign by missing the final two games of the year. The 26-year-old was in the shadow of top wideout DJ Moore all season, and it didn't help that quarterback Justin Fields missed valuable time due to injury midway through the year. Mooney finishes his fourth NFL season with career-lows in catches (31), receiving yards (414) and touchdowns (one) in 15 games played. Moore should be Fields' top target yet again as the Bears look to spoil Green Bay's bid for a postseason appearance, while rookie Tyler Scott, Equanimeous St. Brown and others should be more involved as well.

Kyle Pitts A Risky Value For Week 18

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts has been playing better over the last month or so. In fact, Pitts has 49 receiving yards or more during three of his last five games. The young tight end is coming off a dud, but is hopeful to rebound against the New Orleans Saints. The biggest problem is that the Falcons don't have a reliable option at quarterback right now. The expectation is that the team will use a run-heavy approach in Week 18. That being said, Pitts is more a touchdown-dependent option for this game.
