In Week 14, there are two Monday Night Football games. The contest featured in this article is perhaps the less flashy of the two, but could still swing some fantasy matchups. Below you can read our Monday Night Football matchups analysis article for the Packers vs. Giants game to help make any fantasy lineup decisions for both season-long and DFS.
The Green Bay Packers are a squad that's trending up. The Pack enter MNF having won four of five and three straight. Meanwhile, the Giants have also won two in a row -- those victories came against the Commanders and Patriots -- but remain four games below .500 in what's been an injury-plagued campaign.
Read our fantasy football breakdowns for these games -- the recommended starts, sits, and matchups we love heading into the Week 14 matchups. Good luck, RotoBallers!

Matchups We Love
Jordan Love (QB, GB)
Love is playing superbly over his past three games, beating the Chargers, Lions, and Chiefs. He has eight touchdowns and zero interceptions with a passer rating over 90-plus in each of their last two contests. New York's defense has made some strides, but he's a top-12 quarterback.

Packers Wide Receivers
Christian Watson went off against the Chiefs with seven grabs for 71 yards and two scores. Unfortunately, he suffered another hamstring injury, which we know was an issue earlier in the year. He has officially been ruled out for Week 14. It moves Jayden Reed and Romeo Doubs into the top 30 as the primary options with Dontayvion Wicks, who has flashed at times, into the flex range.
Matchups We Hate
Giants Passing Attack
Tyrod Taylor is working his way back from injury, but the team has named Tommy Devito their starter for this week. It's not great news for the receiving options, or the offense as a whole. The Packers have improved on defense, led by Rashan Gary up front and Jaire Alexander in the back end. It poses an issue for the combination of Darius Slayton, Jalin Hyatt, and Wan'Dale Robinson. Robinson plays in the slot, so he avoids Alexander, but he's rarely produced this season. The best bet is on Hyatt, who popped off for 109 yards on five catches in Week 12 as an ascending rookie.
Other Matchups
Saquon Barkley (RB, NYG)
It remains a sad state of affairs for Barkley, who is extremely talented but has minimal support. It's a juicy matchup and he is involved as a receiver, so there's little chance he suffers from a blowout loss, which is what you should expect in this one. He remains a volume-based top-24 back.
Packers Running Backs
We head into Monday with Aaron Jones listed as questionable after getting in a pair of limited practice sessions this week. If Jones is able to suit up, he would tank A.J. Dillon's already-shaky fantasy value and be a desperation play himself. If Jones is ruled out, Dillon would be a volume-based flex option, though he's failed get much going in Jones' frequent absences this season.
