Fantasy Football Start ‘Em & Sit ‘Em Week 18: Caleb Williams is the start of the week

Thanks. Not just for reading this column in Week 18, but thanks for the entire season. It’s been another fun ride into 2025. We know you have lots of options for Fantasy advice and there are a lot of amazing analysts in the industry. But we appreciate you sticking with us through the season, even when our suggestions were wrong, and hopefully you had a successful Fantasy campaign. We’ll have plenty of coverage during the NFL playoffs – DFS lineups and playoff challenge rankings – and we’re already starting to look ahead to the 2026 season. The best way to win your championship is by paying attention in the offseason, so don’t go too far ahead. But this is the last Start ‘Em & Sit ‘Em of this season, which means we’ll see you in a few months. I will miss writing this column every week, and I hope many of you will miss reading it. The good news is we’ll be back before you know it, so stay tuned. And get ready. If you won your league this season, you will strive to repeat as champion. And if you haven’t managed to win a title, then you will have a goal in mind. As always, we will be here to help. And for those still playing in Week 18, let’s finish strong. It’s a crazy scoring period, with several teams resting starters for the playoffs, and you’ll want to keep up with the news until the end of the week. But we’ll have everything you need, as always, so stick with CBS Sports to make sure the lineups are correct.

This defense has been dominant lately, with 10 sacks, three interceptions and four fumbles in the last two games against the Giants and Lions, and those two teams have only combined for 17 points. I like the Vikings DST as one of the five Fantasy picks in Week 18. Projections powered by Sportsline Rams (vs. ARI) Jaguars (vs. TEN) Ravens (at PIT) Projections powered by Sportsline Chargers (at DEN) The Chargers defense has played well this season, but it appears Los Angeles will rest several starters in Week 18 at Denver. As of Wednesday, we don’t know who will be on defense, but any major absence is a plus for the Broncos and a reason to keep the Chargers DST on the bench.
