Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson had an afternoon to forget despite his team's 38-10 rout over the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. Watson was targeted three times on the day, with the most notable being an on-target pass from quarterback
Jordan Love that bounced off the outstretched hands of Watson where it was a likely touchdown had Watson come down with it. Love tried to get another pass to Watson to atone for that blunder, but it was almost intercepted. Coming off a four-catch, 150-yard effort last week, Watson disappointed fantasy managers and illustrated the "boom-or-bust" nature of his fantasy value. With the Packers staying home to host the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving, Watson is a volatile flex option with a sky-high ceiling and a rock-bottom floor for fantasy in Week 13.

Green Bay Packers tight end
Tucker Kraft found his way back into the good graces of fantasy managers as Kraft got into the end zone in the Packers' 38-10 rout over the San Francisco 49ers. Kraft did not earn a bunch of volume in the Packers' victory, as he caught both of his targets for 26 receiving yards, but his first catch was an 11-yard strike from quarterback
Jordan Love to kick off the scoring for the Packers. There hasn't been much target volume to go around for the Packers, so Kraft has been more of a "touchdown-or-bust" tight end rather than an every-week starter. With the Packers hosting the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving in Week 13, Kraft is a high-end streaming tight end option for fantasy managers given that all 32 teams are playing next week.

The Green Bay Packers defense and special teams unit bounced back from a couple of subpar outings to post their best game in the past six weeks in Week 12. The Packers D/ST forced an interception and corralled a fumble recovery from the hands of 49ers backup quarterback
Brandon Allen as well as sacking him twice on the afternoon. The opportunistic Packers' defense also forced a fumble on
Christian McCaffrey as Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon punched the ball out and lineman Karl Brooks recovered. The Packers' defense looks to build from their momentum against the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving evening. The Packers are a startable defense for fantasy managers even with the short turnaround.

Green Bay Packers kicker
Brandon McManus was perfect on all his kicks as the Packers stymied the San Francisco 49ers 38-10 in Week 12. McManus put the exclamation point on six scoring drives with five successful point after attempts and one field goal, a 51-yarder made in the waning seconds of the first quarter. The Packers dominated throughout the game and McManus wasn't needed for a large chunk of the game minus the point-after attempts. His steady leg has earned him quite a bit of trust with the Packers. McManus and the Packers host the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving night in Week 13, where McManus will be a low-end starting kicker for fantasy managers looking to capitalize on a Packers' offense that's building momentum.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed was a minor part of the Packers' 38-10 blowout of the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. Reed has struggled with consistency all season and in Week 12, it was no different as he earned just three targets, catching all three of them for 26 yards. With the targets for the Packers spread out, Reed's three targets tied
Christian Watson for second on the team. Despite that, his low production is no doubt souring fantasy managers who thought they would be getting more big plays out of the second-year pro from Michigan State. With a short turnaround to Thanksgiving Night where the Packers host the Miami Dolphins in Week 13, consider Reed a high-end WR3 for fantasy purposes.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs had his best game as a Packer as he rumbled for three touchdowns in the Packers' 38-10 drubbing over the San Francisco 49ers. Jacobs was a fixture of the 49ers' second level as he ripped off multiple runs of 10-plus yards and ended up with 106 rushing yards on 26 carries. Scoring all three touchdowns from one yard out in the second, third, and fourth quarters, Jacobs was the finisher and was the key part of the Packers' huge win. After this huge game where he no doubt delighted Packers fans and fantasy managers alike, Jacobs will set his sights on the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving. Jacobs will be a locked-in RB1 against Miami in that matchup on Thursday night.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love kept the mistakes to a minimum as he threw two touchdown passes and led the Packers to a dominant 38-10 win at home over the San Francisco 49ers. Love bookended his touchdown passes as he connected with
Tucker Kraft from 11 yards out to kick off the game's scoring and then threw the game's final score to
Malik Heath in the fourth quarter for a three-yard touchdown. Love also added two yards on his lone rushing attempt. Only needing 23 pass attempts, Love was a little shaky on the efficiency, but Love's services weren't needed as the Packers employed a heavy ground-game approach thanks to
Josh Jacobs' three touchdowns. The Packers have a short turnaround as they host Thanksgiving night's contest against the Miami Dolphins, where Love will be a low-end fantasy starter.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (cramping) returned to Sunday's matchup against the 49ers. Jacobs has had a stellar showing in Week 12, accumulating 99 yards and two scores off 22 touches. Fortunately, there wasn't much concern regarding his return for this one after he exited due to cramping. However, with the Packers up by two scores heading toward the middle of the fourth quarter, Jacobs may not see much work for the remainder of the contest.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (cramping) is questionable to return to Sunday's meeting with the 49ers. The veteran has had a monster showing in Week 12, amassing 99 yards and two touchdowns off 22 carries. Fortunately, it doesn't appear as if things are serious, so there's a chance he'll return. But with the Packers up in the contest, he may not be needed for the rest of the day, which would open the door for
Emanuel Wilson to get more work.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Romeo Doubs (concussion) won't return to Sunday's matchup against the 49ers. The wideout was leading the way on the receiving end before going down with a concussion, so he'll finish the day with three catches for 54 yards. With that said, the Packers have a quick turnaround before meeting the Dolphins on Thanksgiving, meaning Doubts may not have enough time to get healthy. But until he's back on the field,
Christian Watson and
Jayden Reed will likely be the favorite targets of
Jordan Love.

Green Bay Packers kicker
Brandon McManus has done a nice job for the team over the last few weeks. McManus has only missed one field goal and is perfect on extra point attempts over four games with the Packers. They'll head into a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers defense in Week 12. The Packers aren't expected to blowout the 49ers even with San Francisco having multiple key injuries on offense. McManus should get chances, but this probably won't be a high-scoring back-and-forth affair between the two teams. It's worth noting that a handful of teams are on bye in Week 12, so fantasy managers could be limited on options. McManus isn't a great fantasy option, but he should be viable for this weekend.

Emanuel Wilson was barely on the field during last week's win over the Chicago Bears. Wilson was limited to seven percent of the offensive snaps and only carried the ball twice for 17 yards in Week 11. Over the last four games, Wilson has seen five or less carries in each game. Wilson remains the primary backup to
Josh Jacobs, which means he probably won't see many carries with Jacobs healthy. That being said, Wilson is worth stashing in dynasty leagues, but isn't worth starting in Week 12.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Dontayvion Wicks should be left on all benches in Week 12 when the Packers face the San Francisco 49ers. Wicks has not caught a pass in each of the past two games and has averaged just 2.0 targets during this span. Wicks has only surpassed double-digit PPR points on three occasions this season but fell below 7.0 PPR points in each of the other seven contests. Playing in a crowded Green Bay wide receiver room, Wicks has shown flashes of potential at times but has been unable to see a consistent dose of targets. As a result, fantasy managers in all formats should keep Wicks on their bench. However, managers in deeper formats should continue to stash Wicks on their roster as he could find a path to fantasy stardom if he can find his way toward the top of the depth chart down the stretch.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Jayden Reed has been a volatile pass-catching option for the Packers but looks to be on the good side of variance as the Packers host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. Reed followed up a Week 9 where he had 113 receiving yards with a dud outing after the team's Week 10 bye. With just two receptions and 23 yards, Reed's performance was very disappointing, but at the very least, he did catch a touchdown to soften the blow. Against slot receivers, the 49ers have been incredibly stout, allowing just the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game. While Reed is the most dynamic pass-catching weapon the Packers have, he hasn't been immune to the team's offensive struggles. For Week 12, Reed is a low-end WR2 that we know has the upside for much more.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs (quadricep, calf) will suit up for the Packers in Week 12 after practicing in a limited fashion on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Jacobs was left off the injury report for their matchup with the San Francisco 49ers this week, and he could have some success against a 49ers' run defense that is much more susceptible. The 49ers are just 17th in EPA per rush attempt this season and since Week 6, have the second-highest missed-tackle rate since Week 6 and a middle-of-the-road success rate allowed (13th). Jacobs has been reliant on volume for the most part and that's been readily available to him this season in Green Bay. He'll be incredibly important for the Packers if they are to have success, so Jacobs could be in line for solid production as a back end RB1 for fantasy purposes.
