Who Should I Start for Fantasy Football Week 14? Christian Watson, Devaughn Vele, Ashton Jeanty, Quentin Johnston, Marvin Harrison Jr., Pat Bryant, Cooper Kupp, Malik Washington, Tyrell Shavers, Calvin Austin III

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson got a late start to the 2025 season following a torn ACL that he suffered in the regular-season finale last year. Watson made his debut in the Week 8 win over the Green Bay Packers and caught all four of his targets for a season-high 85 yards. It was a statement that the 26-year-old was back and immediately on the fantasy football radar. He had exactly four targets in each of the next two games, too, before slowly seeing his role grow in the last three contests.

Watson has 13 receptions on 22 targets for 175 yards and three TDs in the last three games, culminating in a four-catch, 80-yard, one-TD performance in the Thanksgiving Day win over the Lions last Thursday. He had a season-high 10 targets in that one and is the WR10 in half-PPR scoring over the last three weeks. Jayden Reed's (foot, shoulder) impending return from IR could make life more difficult for Watson the rest of the way, but heading into a Week 14 divisional game against the Bears, Watson has clear WR2 upside for his big-play ability (17.3 yards per catch).

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele has been earning more playing time over the past three games, and in the last two specifically, he has been making the most of his opportunities. Over the past two weeks, he has earned 15 targets and hauled in 11 of them for 130 receiving yards and one touchdown. Over the past three games for the Saints, he has played 87 percent or more of the snaps, whereas before Week 10, he hadn't played more than 51 percent.

The departure of Rashid Shaheed opened the opportunity for Vele to step up. He has built a solid relationship with rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, and because of that, he has worked his way onto the radar as a relevant fantasy option moving forward. Chris Olave remains the Saints' clear No. 1 receiver; however, Vele has seen his value rise and is worth a look in deeper formats.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. This was the Chargers' first practice session as they prepare for Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs, which means that Johnston will have two more opportunities to log a full session before the team publishes its final injury report of the week. Fantasy managers should check back over the next few days for updates, but at this point, it appears that Johnston has a decent chance to play.

He's the overall WR30 in PPR leagues this year and is coming off a decent game in which he caught three passes for 23 yards and a touchdown. In his last contest against the Chiefs, he racked up five catches, 79 yards, and two touchdowns. He's a low-end WR3/flex option for this week.

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Pat Bryant (hamstring) was added to the injury report on Thursday and was listed as a limited practice participant with a hamstring injury, according to Mike Klis of 9 News. Bryant was fully healthy on Wednesday, so this means that the 22-year-old likely suffered an injury in practice on Thursday. It's definitely something to watch for fantasy managers as the Broncos head into a rematch against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders on the road this Sunday.

Bryant has become much more involved in the offense in the last five games, and he had eight catches on 13 targets for 124 yards in the last two contests. In his first 12 NFL games, Bryant has recorded an 18-273-1 line as the WR3 for the Broncos behind Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin. If Bryant is unable to play in Week 14, Franklin would become a much more attractive WR4/flex play in fantasy, with Marvin Mims Jr. also becoming a more attractive big-play threat in deeper formats.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) was not seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Thursday, according to Arizona Sports' Tyler Drake. Both Harrison and Greg Dortch (chest) have not practiced this week, so the Cardinals could be missing two of their top wideouts in Week 14 against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams. The 23-year-old Harrison missed Weeks 11 and 12 following an appendectomy, but he returned last weekend against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers to catch six of his seven targets for 69 yards.

He'll have one more chance to practice on Friday. If both Harrison and Dortch aren't cleared to face the Rams, Michael Wilson will pretty much be a lock for double-digit targets in the passing game, and tight end Trey McBride will also have an incredibly high ceiling. Receivers Xavier Weaver and Andre Baccellia would be in line for a boost in snaps as well.
