Dustin Hopkins A Low-End Option In Week 14

Cleveland Browns kicker Dustin Hopkins made both of his field goals and one of his two extra points in a Week 13 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Hopkins has been a reliable kicker for the Browns in 2023 as he's made 30 of his 33 field goals and all but two of his 18 […]

Byron Buxton To Start In Center Field Next Season

Minnesota Twins outfielder/designated hitter Byron Buxton is slated to start in center field next season, according to manager Rocco Baldelli. The Twins skipper told reporters during MLB winter meetings that Buxton is recovering well from his October arthroscopic knee surgery and should be ready to go for spring training. The oft-injured dynamic 29-year-old served as […]

David Njoku A Low-End TE1 In Week 14

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku was quiet in a Week 13 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, catching just two passes for 17 yards. The Browns ran more two-tight end sets in Week 13 as Harrison Bryant wound up drawing five targets from Joe Flacco. Njoku should see more than two catches in Week […]

Elijah Moore A Flex Option In Week 14

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Elijah Moore drew 12 targets from Joe Flacco in a Week 13 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Targets haven't been an issue for Moore in 2023 as he is averaging 7.08 per game. Moore's issue has been turning those targets into production as he has just 501 receiving yards and […]

Kareem Hunt A Flex Option In Week 14

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt picked up 48 rushing yards on 12 carries in Week 13, although he was held out of the end zone for the third straight game. Hunt missed practice with a groin injury on Wednesday but he was upgraded to a full session by Friday and does not have an […]

Calvin Ridley - Week 14 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team PPR Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3 ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Calvin Ridley has struggled with consistency this season. He has three games of 100 or more receiving yards but also has seven games with 40 or fewer yards. It's been a bit of a gamble with him each week […]

Jerome Ford A Low-End RB2 In Week 14

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford caught three passes, including a touchdown pass from quarterback Joe Flacco, in a Week 13 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Ford will look to score his seventh total touchdown in Week 14's home matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars have been league-average against the run and are […]

Joe Flacco A Low-End QB2 In Week 14

Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco did a decent job moving the ball in a Week 13 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, especially considering it was his first time playing since the end of the 2022 season. With another week under his belt, Flacco will look to keep it going at home in Week 14 […]

Jaguars Sign Nathan Rourke To Active Roster

The Jacksonville Jaguars signed quarterback Nathan Rourke to the active 53-man roster on Saturday from the practice squad, according to a source. Rourke will give the Jaguars some quarterback insurance this weekend with Trevor Lawrence (ankle) a game-time decision on Sunday following a high-ankle sprain he suffered in Monday night's overtime loss to the Cincinnati […]

Rams Activate Mason Crosby To Active Roster

The Los Angeles Rams activated veteran kicker Mason Crosby from the practice squad to the active 53-man roster on Saturday in advance of the Week 14 game on Sunday against the Baltimore Ravens. The Rams signed the 39-year-old kicker earlier this week as competition for Lucas Havrisik, who has missed three of his 10 field-goal […]

Ka'imi Fairbairn Not Ready, Matt Amendola To Kick Again

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) hasn't suffered any setbacks in his recovery from a strained right quadriceps, according to sources, but he isn't quite ready to return in Week 14 against the New York Jets and will spend another week on Injured Reserve. As a result, the Texans will elevate Matt Ammendola from the […]

The Ravens Defense Carries High Value Despite Tougher Matchup

The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams has been one of the most consistent squads in the league as they've posted seven fantasy outings with double-digit points out of a possible 12 games. They were able to shut down the Chargers in Week 12 while they forced four turnovers and collected three sacks. Matthew Stafford is not […]

T.J. Watt In Concussion Protocol

Pittsburgh Steelers All-Pro pass-rusher T.J. Watt (concussion) is in the league's concussion protocol, according to Steelers spokesman Burt Lauten. Watt came in on Friday experiencing concussion symptoms and must now be cleared by an independent neurologist before he can return to play. The good news is the Steelers have a mini-bye and won't play again […]

Justin Tucker Remains A Must-Start Against Rams

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker saw another three field goal attempt game in Week 12 against the Chargers. He was able to make two out of three 40-yarders and made both of his extra-point attempts as well. The Rams have a good enough defense to hold teams out of the end zone, so kickers have […]

Rashod Bateman Not On The Fantasy Radar In Week 14

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman shed any injury designation after popping up on the injury report this week due to an illness. That doesn't automatically make him a starting option in any fantasy format, however. Bateman hasn't scored double-digit fantasy points in any game this season in any format. He has scored one touchdown […]

Rashid Shaheed Won't Play In Week 14

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed's quadriceps injury is more serious than initially believed and will not play in Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers, according to a source. His injury was initially believed to be a contusion, but a second opinion showed something more serious. Shaheed was listed as questionable on Friday's final […]

Keaton Mitchell Is Hard To Trust In Week 14

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell has seen his workload steadily rise since Week 9, but he has yet to break double-digit carries. In that span, he registered three double-digit fantasy point performances, but those outings have been big-play dependent. The Rams are one of the best at defending explosive runs and they're the seventh-toughest […]

Isaiah Likely Holds TE1 Value In Week 14

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely registered TE1 type of metrics in Week 12 as the starter in target share and yards per route run. He has the talent to put up big performances as the starting tight end, but he has delivered a mixed bag of results so far. The good thing is that […]

Jaleel McLaughlin Could Have Bigger Role In Week 14

Denver Broncos running back Samaje Perine (knee) was a late addition to the Week 14 injury report and is questionable to play on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, which could thrust rookie Jaleel McLaughlin into a larger role following a recent drop in playing time as a complementary backfield option for Denver. The […]

Week 14 Kicker Rankings for Fantasy Football: Matt Gay, Jake Moody, Blake Grupe, Greg Joseph, Tyler Bass, more

We are here to help get you to the finish line with our NFL team's  Week 14 fantasy football kicker rankings for the 2023 fantasy football season. […]

Russell Wilson Has Great Bounce-Back Matchup In Week 14

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson has a get-right matchup in Week 14's divisional clash against the Los Angeles Chargers, coming off one of his worst games of the year in the Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans, when he threw for 186 yards, one touchdown and a season-high three interceptions. It was a rare […]

Darius Slayton Facing Tough Green Bay Pass Defense In Week 14

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton hopes to see his snap counts bump back up following a neck injury in Week 11. The veteran was listed as doubtful in the following game but was a surprise active. Likely due to the lack of preparation, Slayton saw his snap shares dip into the 50 percent […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Has Flex Potential Against Rams

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has seen 12 targets over the last two games and turned that into a four-catch, 116-yard performance against the Bengals and a three-catch, 34-yard performance against the Chargers. Beckham's production has fluctuated big time throughout the year, but the offense has leaned on him more ever since tight […]

Wan’Dale Robinson Offers Little Upside Against Green Bay

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson is a fairly consistent, but middling option for fantasy football as the Giants return from their bye week. The second-year wideout earns an average of 4.5 targets per game and hasn't topped five since Week 6. Twice in the last four weeks, Robinson's receiving total landed on 35 […]

Zay Flowers Has Borderline WR2 Value In Week 14

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers will remain the No. 1 pass-catching option with tight end Mark Andrews (ankle) sidelined. He's seen a 31.5% target share without Andrews but hasn't exactly seen much success in turning targets into yards and touchdowns throughout most of the season. The Rams currently rank 10th against opposing wide receiver […]

Cade Otton Should Bounce Back In Week 14

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton was held without a catch during last week's win over the Carolina Panthers. The young tight end wasn't even targeted in the contest, but fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned. Before that, Otton had hauled in four receptions in five of his last six games heading into last […]

Jalin Hyatt Emerging As The Top Wide Receiver In New York?

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt is fresh off of the first 100-yard performance of his career and followed that with a bye week. Frequently, teams use the time off to better integrate their young offensive weapons that haven't fully emerged yet. Still, for fantasy football, Hyatt remains more of a stash candidate than […]
