FanDuel Single-Game Daily Fantasy Football Helper: Week 17 Monday Night (Bills at Bengals)
Who is the best play in the MVP slot tonight, and who else can round out our single-game rosters in a game that could feature a lot of points?
Trenton Irwin Status
rotoWire
Irwin played 12 of the Bengals' 64 snaps on offense and finished with one catch for 12 yards on two targets in Sunday's 27-16 win over the Ravens.
What it means:
In his last outing Week 16 against the Patriots, Irwin registered three catches for 45 yards and two touchdowns, but his production predictably took a step back in the regular-season finale while Cincinnati had all of Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd available and at full health. Heading into this weekend's rematch with the Ravens in the wild-card round of the postseason, Irwin will likely maintain a limited role as the Bengals' No. 4 wideout.
rotoWire
Irwin had three catches for 45 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Patriots.
What it means:
Irwin saw more snaps in the first half when Tyler Boyd aggravated his finger injury and cashed in on the opportunities. He nearly scored a third touchdown on a route identical to his first touchdown in the second half, but the ball just barely went off his fingertips.
rotoWire
Irwin had one reception on two targets for five yards in Sunday's 34-23 win over the Buccaneers.
What it means:
Irwin wasn't much more than an afterthought in Sunday's win against Tampa Bay, as he played 24 percent of Cincinnati's offensive snaps and was targeted just twice. The 27-year-old likely won't be very involved down the stretch unless either Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins or Tyler Boyd are forced to miss time. The Bengals are now scheduled for a Week 16 clash in New England on Saturday.
rotoWire
Irwin had two catches for 58 yards and scored a touchdown on a flea-flicker play that worked to perfection against the Browns.
What it means:
Both Irwin and Trent Taylor were called into action early due to injuries to Tee Higgins and Tyler Boyd. The Bengals might be calling Irwin's name frequently next week against the Bucs.
rotoWire
Irwin played only nine snaps in Sunday's win over the Chiefs, catching one pass on his only target for 12 yards.
What it means:
With Ja'Marr Chase back, Irwin reverted back to a fourth receiver role, one not frequently needed by the Bengals in Week 13.
rotoWire
Irwin had just one catch for 16 yards in Sunday's win over the Titans, but it converted a big 3rd-and-12 down for the Bengals.
What it means:
Irwin made a spectacular catch that held up from a review in the third quarter, and the Bengals then scored on the subsequent play on a pass to Tee Higgins to take the lead for good. Irwin's snap count will likely decline next week against the Chiefs, assuming that Ja'Marr Chase returns.
