Week 16 in the 2024 NFL season is just one game away from completion. These are the players from the Packers-Saints game tonight who could win your fantasy football matchup.
Jordan Love, QB, GB

Love has not been as productive this season as he was in 2023 when he tossed 32 TDs. However, a home matchup with New Orleans, a bottom-five pass defense in the NFL, is a good time to get back to that production.
