Aaron Rodgers (QB, NYJ) - Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13

BALLER MOVE: Wait and See, Likely Avoid ROSTERED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Maybe it's my pessimism showing after an entire season of writing busts columns for RotoBaller, but Aaron Rodgers claiming that he's going to return this season from a torn Achilles seems like nothing but a charade. The Jets opened the future of […]

Demario Douglas - Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 13

INJURY: Concussion WEEK 13 STATUS: Out ANALYSIS: In a season with very few bright spots, Patriots rookie wide receiver Demario Douglas has been one of the few pleasant surprises for a spiraling New England squad. Douglas worked his way into the starting lineup in Week 7 and has amassed 410 receiving yards on 36 catches […]

Yoshinobu Yamamoto Is Where Mets' Focus Lies

The New York Mets are concentrating on a deal with free-agent starting pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto and are seemingly less involved with two-way superstar Shohei Ohtani now. The Mets haven't been told they are out of the Ohtani sweepstakes, but their attention is being shifted to Yamamoto and other starting pitchers, such as Jordan Montgomery, Blake […]

Marquise Goodwin Ruled Out For Week 13

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Marquise Goodwin (concussion) was unable to practice all week and was officially ruled out for the Week 13 game on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. It's been a lost first year in Cleveland, as he's now set to miss his fourth straight game due to a concussion. The 33-year-old has […]

Jaire Alexander, De'Vondre Campbell Questionable For Week 13

Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander (shoulder), outside linebacker De'Vondre Campbell (neck), free safety Rudy Ford (biceps, groin), cornerback Robert Rochell (calf) and safety Darnell Savage (calf) are all questionable for Week 13 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday. Cornerback Eric Stokes (hamstring) is doubtful. Alexander has played in only five games so far […]

The Dolphins Defense Primed For Another Good Week

The Miami Dolphins defense/special teams posted their best fantasy game of the season in Week 12 as they posted 23 points from seven sacks, two interceptions, a touchdown, and only seven points allowed. Their matchup in Week 13, the Washington Commanders, is ranked 28th in terms of fantasy points given up to opposing defenses. These […]

Myles Garrett Cleared For Week 13, Denzel Ward Ruled Out

Cleveland Browns All-Pro edge rusher Myles Garrett (shoulder) was a full participant in practice on Friday and has been removed from the final Week 13 injury report, so he will play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Rams. Meanwhile, top cornerback Denzel Ward (shoulder) missed practice all week and will miss his second straight game. […]

Jason Sanders A Solid Streaming Option In Week 13

Miami Dolphins kicker Jason Sanders had an eight-week streak of single-digit fantasy outcomes until the last two weeks. In Week 12, Sanders made a 38 and 54-yard field goal while making all four of his extra-point attempts. The Dolphins offense is likely to turn in a big week against a weak Commanders defense and Sanders […]

Steelers D/ST Remains A Must-Start In Week 13

The Pittsburgh Steelers only surrendered 10 points to the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12, recording four sacks, a forced fumble, and an interception in the victory. The team will hope to find similar success against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Arizona has struggled to score consistently this season and is averaging just over 18 points […]

Marlins Add Gabe Kapler To Their Front Office

The Miami Marlins hired former big-leaguer and San Francisco Giants manager Gabe Kapler to their front office on Friday, according to sources. Kapler will serve as the assistant general manager under Peter Bendix. The Marlins have three other assistant general managers in Brian Chattin, Daniel Greenlee and Oz Ocampo. The 48-year-old Kapler was fired by […]

Chris Boswell A Streaming Candidate In Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell drilled all three of his field goal attempts and was successful on his lone extra-point try of a Week 12 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. He'll look to stay busy against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Pittsburgh showed signs of life on offense last week and could keep rolling with […]

Jaylen Waddle A Quality WR2 Against Commanders

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is fresh off of an eight-catch, 114-yard game against one of the toughest secondaries in the league. He and Tyreek Hill received enough work to both finish within the top 16 at receiver in Week 12. Now that they play against the second-worst defense against opposing receivers, they're even […]

Ezekiel Elliott Questionable For Week 13

New England Patriots running back Ezekiel Elliott (thigh) is currently listed as questionable for the Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. The veteran back has been limited in practice all week. That being said, Elliott appears to be trending in the right direction towards this weekend's game. However, his role in the offense […]

Pat Freiermuth A Must-Start Against Cardinals

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth dominated in Week 12 and will hope to find similar success against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. The Cardinals have held opposing tight ends in check for much of the season but did surrender two touchdowns to the Rams' Tyler Higbee last week. With quarterback Kenny Pickett targeting the […]

Travis Etienne Jr. - Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 13

INJURY: Chest WEEK 13 STATUS: Day-to-day ANALYSIS: As we progress into Week 13 of the NFL season, Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (chest) remained a limited participant during Friday's practice session. The young back is currently listed as day-to-day and has been limited in practice all week. Jaguars RB Travis Etienne Jr. (ribs) […]

Calvin Austin III Good To Go In Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III (ankle) practiced in full on Friday and is set to play against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13. Since Diontae Johnson's return in Week 7, Austin has not seen more than two targets in a contest and has played on significantly fewer offensive snaps. He should continue to […]

George Pickens A Viable Flex Option Against Cardinals

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver George Pickens has not eclipsed double-digit fantasy points since Week 7 but has a great opportunity to bounce back in Week 13 against the Arizona Cardinals. Arizona has surrendered the sixth-most receiving yards to opposing wideouts in 2023. The Steelers parted ways with former offensive coordinator Matt Canada heading into Week […]

Bailey Zappe To Start In Week 13

New England Patriots quarterback Bailey Zappe has been named the team's starter ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Zappe took over for Mac Jones in the second half of last week's loss to the New York Giants. Zappe went 9-for-14 with 54 passing yards and an interception in that half. […]

Diontae Johnson Set To Play In Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (illness) practiced in full on Friday and will suit up for a Week 13 home matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. Although Arizona's defense has been much more vulnerable to rushing production, it has not been particularly good against the pass and surrenders plenty of fantasy points to opposing receivers. […]

Yankees Claim Oscar Gonzalez Off Waivers From Guardians

The New York Yankees claimed outfielder Oscar Gonzalez off waivers from the Cleveland Guardians on Friday. In 173 at-bats for Cleveland in 2023, Gonzalez slashed .214/.239/.312 with only two home runs and 12 RBI in just 54 games played in his second big-league season. For his career, the 25-year-old Dominican right-handed hitter has batted .269 […]

Demario Douglas Won't Play In Week 13

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Demario Douglas (concussion) won't suit up for the Week 13 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Douglas hasn't been cleared after suffering a concussion during last week's game. He wasn't able to practice at all this week, so there's a good chance he sits out in Week 14 as […]

Travis Etienne Jr. Remains Limited On Friday

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. (chest) remained a limited participant during Friday's practice session. The young back is currently listed as day-to-day and has been limited in practice all week. Possibly, the Jags are limiting him as a precaution, so fantasy managers shouldn't panic yet. The Jaguars don't play until Monday night against […]

Jaylen Warren Primed To Bounce Back Against Cardinals

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren was outshined by Najee Harris last week but has a great opportunity to bounce back in Week 13 against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals' run defense has struggled mightily all season, allowing the second-most fantasy points per game to running backs. Warren and Harris are likely to split touches […]

When Will Michael Wilson Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Rookie wide receiver Michael Wilson received all the positive buzz in the offseason and training camp. The popular belief was that once Kyler Murray returned from his ACL injury, Wilson would be a legitimate option for fantasy football managers opposite Marquise Brown. Don't tell the universe your plans. Just one game after Murray found his […]

Raheem Mostert Back In RB2 Territory In Week 13

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert cleared the injury report and is no longer listed with ankle and knee issues. This has been the same song and dance over the last few weeks and it doesn't seem to affect him when it comes to game-time. De'Von Achane is back, however, and Jeff Wilson Jr. is […]

Tyreek Hill In Line For A Huge Week Against Commanders

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill doesn't carry an injury designation anymore for his ankle and he will be a full go for their Week 13 matchup against the Washington Commanders. Hill has finished lower than WR6 only three times this season and now he's going up against the second-worst defense against wide receiver groups. […]

Tee Higgins A Full Participant On Friday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (hamstring) was a full participant during Friday's practice session. The veteran wideout has missed each of the last three games due to a lingering hamstring issue. However, it appears Higgins is trending in the right direction ahead of the Monday night matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. His fantasy value […]

Najee Harris Draws Plus Matchup In Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris is the fantasy RB11 since Week 7 and should keep rolling against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13. Arizona is surrendering the second-most fantasy points per contest to opposing backs and just gave up a massive performance to Kyren Williams last week. As the preferred option near the goal […]

Gerald Everett Has A Tough Week 13 Matchup

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett (shoulder) has a tough matchup coming up in a Week 13 game against the New England Patriots. Everett was on the injury report this week with a shoulder injury, but he got in a full practice each day so there's no concern about him missing Sunday's game. Everett […]
