This week, in the vast majority of Fantasy Football leagues, we crown a champion. And it is going to be a wild one. It starts on Wednesday as the Chiefs play the Steelers and the Ravens face the Texans.

Though George Pickens is expected to be back by Week 18, Austin has been a solid receiver averaging 8.7 fantasy points per game over his last five. The matchup against the Bengals should be conducive for fantasy points, so there are worst shots to take. Maybe he catches a touchdown against the Houston Texans as one final hurrah?

For my final column of the fantasy season, we’ll wrap up 2024 but we’re also going to look ahead to some way-to-early 2025 fantasy draft takes. Congrats to all who have advanced to the championship round, and happy holidays, too!
