Week 18 in the NFL is the wildest of the wild when it comes to fantasy football. Most season-long leagues are still geared to end in Week 17, so many will not have any interest, or juice, this week.
That leaves us with DFS — DraftKings and FanDuel — and playing against thousands of others for prize pool money. That’s an endeavor I’ve had some success with, so you’re fortunate I’m here to help.
Here’s a quick rundown of the fantasy options in this game.

All eyes will be on Philadelphia’s Pro Bowl quarterback Jalen Hurts during warmups, and the expectation is that he’ll start for the first time since suffering a shoulder sprain in the win over Chicago.
The Giants are expected to rest key starters on both sides of the football, but it’ll be the Eagles who need to be most efficient on Sunday.
With kickoff fast approaching, here are four keys for the Philadelphia offense on Sunday.

The Eagles released their final injury report of the regular season, and Pro Bowl quarterback Jalen Hurts was listed as questionable for Sunday afternoon’s must-win matchup against the Giants.
Hurts’ was listed as “trending in the right direction” to return to the field for Sunday’s 4:25 PM game against the Giants, said Head Coach Nick Sirianni at his Friday morning press conference at the NovaCare Complex.
“We feel good about it,” Sirianni said. “We’ll see how today goes. We’re still thinking through everything. If we feel like after today’s practice and after he goes through his rehab and everything all those different things that he’s ready to go all those things – the contact, the throwing, the hits – it’s all taken into account. He’s ready to play or he’s not ready to play.”
Hurts suffered a sprained right shoulder in the December 18 win at Chicago and missed consecutive losses at Dallas and against New Orleans last Sunday.
The Eagles are also hopeful to have C.J. Gardner-Johnson return from a lacerated Kidney.

Here’s what the Philadelphia Eagles are saying ahead of their critical Week 18 matchup against the New York Giants at Lincoln Financial Field
There are only three teams still competing for the final playoff spot in the NFC, while Philadelphia has a must-win clinching scenario that involves the overall No. 1 seed for Week 18.
Sunday’s season finale has all the making of a physical, NFC East showdown, but that all depends on Brian Daboll wants things to play out.
Philadelphia (13-3) has a better record than the New York Giants (9-6-1), but it’s Daboll’s club that is already slotted as the sixth seed and has nothing to play for besides momentum heading into Wild Card weekend.
