Chicago Bears

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (heel) won't suit up for the Week 18 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. As expected, Allen will sit out this game after missing practice all week. The Chargers don't have much incentive to run out their superstar wideout in a meaningless game. The veteran wideout has played his final game of the season. He'll carry over an $18 million base salary into next season. We'll see if the Chargers attempt to move on or stick with the oft-injured wideout. Fellow wideout Joshua Palmer (concussion) is expected to have a bigger role during Sunday's game. Although, it's tough to trust any Chargers offensive player with Easton Stick under center.

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore suffered an ankle injury in Week 16 against the Cardinals but returned to the game. In Week 17, the star receiver had an injury designation before full participation in practice on the Friday before the game, and he went on to catch nine of 13 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown. The former Panther finished with over 30 PPR points for the second time this year and the first since his Week 5 outburst on Thursday Night Football. With Justin Fields healthy, Moore has put up at least 20 PPR points in six of the last eight games, with the only games less than that coming against the best defense in the NFL and a game he was injured in. Leading up to Week 18, his status was in question after sitting out the first two practices, but full participation on Friday means he should be good to go Sunday. The Bears take on the Packers in Week 18, who allow the 19th-most points per game to receivers this season. He ranks as a low-end WR1 ahead of the final game of the season.

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet (knee) is listed as questionable to play in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Kmet didn't practice on Wednesday, was limited on Thursday and managed to put in a full practice on Friday, so he's clearly on the right side of questionable. The 24-year-old was also questionable last week but was active and played a season-low 13 snaps in the Week 17 win over the Atlanta Falcons. It sounds as though he's healthier this week, which means he should see the field more often. Kmet could see plenty of targets, too, with receiver Darnell Mooney (concussion) already being ruled out. In the season opener against Green Bay, Kmet had five catches on seven targets for 44 yards. Consider him a risky low-end, touchdown-dependent TE1 in fantasy for the Bears' final game of the season at Lambeau Field.

Chicago Bears running back Roschon Johnson has faced challenges in a crowded backfield, seeing 10 or more touches in a game only five times this season. Recently, his role has expanded with D'Onta Foreman missing the last two games. Johnson, primarily a receiving back this year, has demonstrated consistency with at least three catches in each of the last three games and four of the last six. With Khalil Herbert nursing a back injury and limited in practice, Johnson could assume the lead role if both Herbert and Foreman are sidelined in Week 18. Facing the Green Bay Packers, who concede the 12th-most points per game to running backs and rank 26th in DVOA against the run, Johnson emerges as a solid RB2 option in the absence of his counterparts and a viable low-end RB3 if they are available.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (heel) missed yet another practice on Thursday and looks likely to miss his fourth straight game to close out the season. The Chargers basically shut their top offensive weapon down right after quarterback Justin Herbert (finger) was lost for the year and the team was eliminated from the postseason. It's a disappointing end to what was a fantastic season for the 31-year-old pass catcher. Allen managed to post a career-high 108 receptions on 150 targets for 1,243 yards and seven touchdowns in only 13 games played as a top-five fantasy receiver. With Allen likely to sit out in the Week 18 regular season finale against the Kansas City Chiefs, rookie first-rounder Quentin Johnston and Jalen Guyton should have bigger roles, although Joshua Palmer (concussion) could be making his return.
