NFL DFS players will have their final multi-game slate of the year as Championship Sunday brings both the AFC Championship Game and the NFC Championship Game. The Broncos and Patriots play at 3 p.m. ET, followed by Seahawks vs. Rams at 6:30 p.m. ET. Injuries will play a big part in both matchups with Bo Nix (ankle) out for Denver and Zach Charbonnet (ACL) out for Seattle. Denver, especially, will have a new look on offense and daily Fantasy football players will have to craft a strategy around how to value backup Jarrett Stidham and the rest of the that offense without Nix. The latter’s absence could affect the likes of Courtland Sutton, Troy Franklin and Pat Bryant.

Top NFL DFS picks for Sunday
One of McClure’s top NFL DFS picks for Sunday is Rams receiver Puka Nacua. He’s been a daily Fantasy stalwart all season with a massive 129-1,715-10 receiving line. He hasn’t slowed much in the NFL playoffs, turning 28 targets into 15 catches for 167 yards and a score through two games. A new wrinkle has been using him as a runner. He’s now had three straight weeks with multiple carries, giving him even more daily Fantasy value. The Seahawks are tough defensively, but he sliced them up for 12 catches, 225 yards and two touchdowns in Week 16.

McClure is also building his NFL DFS strategy around Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III. He should see an already heavy workload expand against the Rams with Charbonnet done for the year. Walker’s track record against the Rams this year was already strong as he totaled 275 scrimmage yards and two scores against them in their two matchups in the regular season. The Rams have also allowed 160-plus rushing yards in three of their last five games after doing so just twice over their first 14 games. See who else to roster at SportsLine, and bet Walker to go Over 86.5 rushing yards at DraftKings:
