Jacksonville Jaguars DFS Spin
Trevor Lawrence (toe) is questionable for Jacksonville’s Divisional Round matchup against the Chiefs. Lawrence continues to be listed as questionable and continues to be at no real threat of not playing. He’ll be a worthwhile showdown slate play in what could become a shootout in Kansas City coming off last week’s four-touchdown, four-pick effort.
Kansas City Chiefs DFS Spin
The Chiefs’ did not active Clyde Edwards-Helaire (ankle) from injured reserve ahead of their Divisional Round game against the Jaguars. Chiefs head coach Andy Reid expected this early in the week, saying Edwards-Helaire would “probably not” be activated before the game. Kansas City’s backfield will once again be split by Isiah Pacheco and Jerick McKinnon. Facing a Jacksonville defense that is far more susceptible through the air than on the ground, McKinnon has a better fantasy outlook this week.
