6 players who disappointed in fantasy football for Week 17

Jared Goff (Detroit Lions)

The Detroit Lions quarterback started the season pretty great with Top 6 finishes in three of the first six weeks of the season. However, the second half of the year hasn't been as strong with only one game since Week 11 finishing inside the Top 10.

This week, the Lions were playing the Cowboys in a game with plenty of playoff implications. The quarterback position was dealing with plenty of injuries and players being benched (like Russell Wilson) that made Jared Goff a player who likely was started.

Unfortunately, he finished the game with 271 passing yards with only one touchdown but two interceptions. He is not a mobile quarterback and that limits his scoring potential. This week, quarterbacks like Jarrett Stidham, Trevor Siemian, and Taylor Heinicke which is not good in a pivotal week.
