Fantasy Football Matchup Outlooks
Below are some fantasy football outlooks written by our NFL team here at RotoBaller, bringing you their fantasy football analysis and advice on which players to consider starting in Week 13:
Chimere Dike, WR, Tennessee Titans
Since the firing of head coach Brian Callahan following a 1-5 start, Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike has been on a 17-game pace of 65 receptions for 768 yards and seven touchdowns. He has also added two punt return touchdowns in that time while looking explosive anytime he's had the ball in his hands.
While most fantasy leagues do not reward players for punt or kick return yardage, Dike is currently on pace to set the NFL record for all-purpose yards in a single season. While the Tennessee offense is still not one that demands its players be started, number one overall pick Cam Ward has shown clear signs of improvement of late and a growing cohesion with his young pass catchers.
In deeper leagues, Dike has played his way into flex consideration, and he faces a league-average Jaguars pass defense in Week 13.
DK Metcalf, WR, Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf (ankle) was listed as a full participant in Thursday's practice session, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network.
Metcalf missed Wednesday's practice after suffering an ankle injury during Pittsburgh's Week 12 loss to the Chicago Bears, but the 27-year-old wideout's workload was expected to be managed early in the week. The former Seattle Seahawk looks to have avoided a serious injury that would force him to miss any time and should be expected to suit up on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills.
Metcalf has had underwhelming production recently, failing to surpass 50 yards in each of his past four games. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR27 in PPR leagues for Week 13.
Tre Tucker, WR, Las Vegas Raiders
The 24-year-old may need to upgrade to a full practice this week to avoid a questionable tag for Week 13 against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, though. Tucker has seen more looks in the last two games, hauling in seven of 18 targets for 75 yards and a touchdown. Veteran Tyler Lockett has plenty of chemistry with quarterback Geno Smith, though, and tight end Brock Bowers also takes away valuable looks.
In what has been a bad Raiders offense in 2025, Tucker has limited fantasy upside as a WR4/flex heading into a rematch against L.A. Tucker had just three catches on eight targets for a season-low 12 yards in the first game against the Chargers.
Chris Godwin, WR, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
In his first game back, Godwin played only 36% of the offensive snaps and caught two of four targets for nine yards. The 29-year-old shouldn't be in any real danger of missing this Sunday's Week 13 contest against the visiting Arizona Cardinals, and he should see more playing time in his second game back.
However, Godwin should be viewed as more of a WR4/5 for fantasy purposes as he gets his legs underneath him, and he'll be a receiver to fade for a second straight week if quarterback Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is unable to play.
Jordan Addison, WR, Minnesota Vikings
Quarterback J.J. McCarthy completed 12 passes for 89 yards and threw two more interceptions without a touchdown. Addison was never a factor as Minnesota attempted to control the game on the ground, but fell behind and saw the Green Bay pass rush overwhelm the offensive line for five sacks. Managers have now seen a month straight of little performance from Addison, whose Vikings are at Seattle next week.
