Who should I start for Week 14? Fantasy football outlooks for Jayden Reed, Tucker Kraft, and Dontayvion Wicks. Our expert fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks.
Week 14 of the NFL season is here! We kick things off tonight with a huge game in the NFC North between two teams with playoff aspirations as the Lions face the Packers.
The fantasy football playoff push is going full speed and it's time to make sure you're making the best decisions you can about your team.
There is a talented trio of pass catchers in Green Bay set to play in tonight's game, including Jayden Reed, Tucker Kraft, and Dontayvion Wicks. Should you start Reed, Kraft, and/or Wicks in fantasy football leagues in Week 14? Here are outlooks for all three players ahead of Week 14 of the 2024 fantasy football season.
Should I Start Jayden Reed for Fantasy Football?
Jayden Reed is coming off a two-touchdown outing against the Dolphins last week on only three catches, but he was targeted six times and the Packers were able to run the ball and run out the clock with a big lead throughout.

Tonight, Reed faces a Detroit defense that funnels production toward the slot receiver position. We saw Keenan Allen have a big performance on Thanksgiving Day from the slot and I would expect the Packers to try to exploit that weakness with Reed, too.
He's also involved in the run game and could have an enhanced role if the Lions load up to stop Josh Jacobs. He's viable in all formats tonight, make sure he's in your lineup.
Should I Start Tucker Kraft for Fantasy Football?
Kraft has double-digit fantasy points (half-PPR) in straight weeks after hitting a lull in Weeks 9 and 11. Last week he caught six of seven targets for 78 yards and had an impressive 25% target share against Miami.
In a landscape full of guys with small sample sizes and RBs catching screens, Tucker Kraft has the 11th highest Average Yards after the catch in the NFL this year (min 30 targets).
By my eye that also makes him the only TE on the screen. (Isaiah Likely is 2nd most at 6.9) pic.twitter.com/Lj3e4OIqeb

While his first game against Detroit was underwhelming (4-34), I would expect him to be a featured part of the gameplan tonight for the Packers passing game, especially with Romeo Doubs being out and the Lions being much tougher on the outside receivers.
Detroit's defense is a bit banged up for this one, too, and with a game total of 51.5 points, Vegas is expecting some offense. If you have Kraft as your TE1, you're starting him tonight.
Should I Start Dontayvion Wicks for Fantasy Football?
The short answer to this question is, "No." While Wicks is an incredibly talented player who has shown flashes of production this season, he's been simply too unreliable for fantasy lineups. Even with Romeo Doubs out, Wicks simply is too much of a "Boom-Bust" player to put into lineups.
No Romeo Doubs this week🚨
Do you trust Dontayvion Wicks against the Lions? pic.twitter.com/LGCUTQWv3s
— PlayerProfiler NFL (@Profiler_NFL) December 5, 2024
Wicks hasn't cracked double-digit fantasy points in five weeks. He caught four of five targets last week while playing 89% of the snaps, but managed just 30 yards. The Packers are much more likely to lean on Josh Jacobs, Jayden Reed, and Tucker Kraft in this one. While Wicks is a deep threat who could break a big gainer, his floor is simply too low to be trusted. Keep him on the bench this week unless you have no one else to use.
