Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Khalil Shakir matched a season low with just one reception for five yards on four targets in last week's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Bills opted for a heavy run approach with 51 total carries to 23 pass attempts, and Shakir's production suffered as a result. His four targets tied for the second most on the team, but it was another frustrating performance for his fantasy managers. The 25-year-old now has three games with only one reception after recording zero such games in his breakout 2024 season. Shakir is still the clear top target for the Bills, but their run-heavy offensive approach limits his ceiling. He could have some targets taken away in Week 14 against the Bengals with the potential return of top tight end
Dalton Kincaid (hamstring), who is currently listed as questionable to play for the first time since Week 10. It could be a great spot for Shakir to bounce back against a Bengals defense that has been the worst in the league. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR27 in PPR formats in Week 14.

Buffalo Bills running back
James Cook recorded a season-high 32 carries for 144 yards during last week's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite missing both starting tackles, Cook and the Bills' ground game tore up the Steelers for 249 total rushing yards. The 26-year-old has been an elite fantasy asset all season, handling 231 rushing attempts for 1,228 yards and eight touchdowns with 27 receptions (29 targets) for 236 yards and a touchdown. He ranks as the RB6 on the year, averaging 18.6 PPR points per game. The Bills' RB1 has already set a career high in rushing yards and is set up to surpass his career high of 237 carries in Week 14 against a porous Cincinnati Bengals defense. The Bengals have allowed the most PPR points per game to opposing running backs, setting Cook up for another potential massive game on Sunday.

Buffalo Bills quarterback
Josh Allen scored his 30th total touchdown on the season in last week's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Allen completed 15 of 23 passes for 123 yards and a touchdown while adding eight carries for 38 yards and a score on the ground. The 29-year-old signal-caller didn't need to throw the ball much, though, as the Bills gashed Pittsburgh for 249 yards on the ground, and he worked his way into the end zone for his 11th rushing touchdown of the season -- three more than any other quarterback. Allen is set up with a dream matchup in Week 14 against the Cincinnati Bengals, who have allowed the most points per game in the league and concede the fourth-most passing yards per game. The superstar quarterback blew up for six touchdowns back in Week 11 at home against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and he could be gearing up for another nuclear game in Week 14.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end
Brock Bowers is coming off an awesome two-touchdown game against the Los Angeles Chargers last week. Bowers hauled in all four of his targets for 63 yards and two trips to the end zone in the loss. This marked the first time that Bowers has scored a touchdown since Week 9. Fantasy managers are finally getting the elite tight end that they drafted at the beginning of the season. The expectation is that Bowers will see heavy usage this weekend. The Raiders only have three healthy wide receivers, so there's not a ton of competition for Bowers. The 22-year-old is by far the best receiving option on the team. He was held in check during his last outing versus the Denver Broncos in Week 10, catching one of three targets for 31 yards. Bowers will seek revenge in a home matchup this weekend. Fantasy managers should plug in Bowers as a high-end TE1 for this weekend.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver
Jack Bech is expected to have an expanded role during the Week 14 matchup versus the Denver Broncos, with fellow rookie
Dont'e Thornton Jr. (concussion) ruled out. The Raiders are banged up with only three healthy wideouts right now. Last week, Bech hauled in two of his three targets for 22 yards in the loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He played 56 percent of the offensive snaps, which was the most for Bech since Week 7. The rookie wideout figures to see more of the field on Sunday, but production isn't guaranteed, especially against one of the best defenses in the NFL. The Raiders have struggled to move the ball in the passing game this season. Bech should be viewed as a risky flex option, even in the deepest of leagues, for Week 14.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Tyler Lockett is looking to bounce back after giving fantasy managers a dud last week. Lockett struggled to make an impact, hauling in his lone target for 11 yards in the loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Before that, Lockett was actually playing well with three catches or more in each of his three previous contests. Lockett has also finished with 40 receiving yards or more in two of his four games in Las Vegas. The familiarity with quarterback
Geno Smith has probably helped Lockett get more comfortable in this offense. The biggest problem is that the Raiders' offense hasn't been able to successfully move the ball through the air this season. There is hope that Lockett can have a bounce-back game in Week 14. He hauled in five receptions for 44 yards during the last meeting against the Denver Broncos. Fantasy managers should put Lockett in the low-end flex category for this weekend.

The Pittsburgh Steelers face a difficult decision regarding head coach Mike Tomlin. After this season, Tomlin has two years remaining on his contract. He's under contract for the 2026 campaign and has a team option for 2027. The catch is that the organization must decide by March 1 whether to exercise the option in his contract. The Steelers expected better results from this team this season, but Tomlin deserves the benefit of the doubt. Under Tomlin, the Steelers haven't experienced a losing season in 18 years. There is a chance the streak ends this season, with the Steelers sitting at 6-6 right now. Tomlin won't be fired in-season, but the front office will need to make a big decision on his future soon.

Denver Broncos tight end
Marcedes Lewis was signed from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of the Week 14 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Lewis has been elevated three times, so he must be signed to the active roster if the team wishes to keep him. The 41-year-old will now stick on the active roster for the rest of the season. At this point in his career, Lewis is basically depth and an extra blocking option. He hasn't finished with more than six receptions in a single season since the 2021 campaign with the Green Bay Packers. Lewis can be ignored in all fantasy formats going forward.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Tre Tucker has recorded three receptions or fewer in four of the past five games since
Brock Bowers returned in Week 9 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Tucker has operated as the Raiders' primary wide receiver, but the production has been limited. The 24-year-old had an intriguing two-game stretch in Weeks 11 and 12, totaling seven receptions (18 targets) for 75 yards and scoring his first touchdown since Week 3. Tucker has recorded at least two receptions in every game this season and remains a viable fantasy option in deep leagues due to his volume of routes. He faces a tough matchup in Week 14 against an elite Denver Broncos secondary that held him to two catches for 28 yards in their Week 10 meeting. Tucker is tough to trust as anything more than a low-end flex option in a struggling Raiders offense.

Tennessee Titans tight end
Chig Okonkwo hasn't emerged as a consistent fantasy option in his fourth season, recording 39 receptions for 406 yards on 51 targets, and is still looking for his first touchdown through 12 games. Okonkwo has been sharing snaps with rookie tight end
Gunnar Helm, who ran more routes than Okonkwo for the first game this season in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Even in a Titans offense that has arguably the worst wide receiver group in the league with
Calvin Ridley (leg) out for the season, Okonkwo hasn't emerged as a go-to target for rookie quarterback
Cameron Ward. The 26-year-old tight end carries limited upside headed into Sunday's matchup against the Cleveland Browns and should be viewed as a TE3 option.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie running back
Ashton Jeanty has displayed his receiving ability in recent weeks, recording at least six receptions in three straight games. Jeanty has struggled to be efficient as a runner all season due to the Raiders' poor offensive line, but he's still found ways to deliver for fantasy managers. Since Week 9, the rookie first-rounder has recorded 70 carries for 190 yards and a touchdown to go with 28 receptions for 165 yards and two touchdowns on 34 targets. His 28 receptions during that span trail only
Christian McCaffrey, and he ranks as the RB10 in that stretch with 16.3 PPR points per game. Jeanty will look to stay productive as a receiver in Week 14 against the Denver Broncos' stout defense. The rookie totaled 19 carries for 60 yards and a touchdown with three receptions (three targets) for five yards against them in Week 10, and he profiles as an upside RB2 in Week 14.

The Los Angeles Chargers D/ST held the Las Vegas Raiders to just 14 points and a season-low 31 rushing yards last week. They head into Week 14 facing a Philadelphia Eagles offense that, despite its elite talent, has been underperforming and will be without star offensive guard Landon Dickerson. The Chargers remain a run-funnel defense and will face a tough challenge on the ground, as they are tied for fourth in rushing touchdowns allowed (14), despite a strong effort last week. However, the Bolts' secondary ranks in the top five for pass defense, with safety Derwin James leading the league in slot coverage (0.28 yards per snap). Considering Philadelphia's recent struggles and the possibility of a low-scoring, competitive game, the Chargers could force multiple sacks and turnovers. It depends on the health of quarterback
Justin Herbert (hand), who is listed as questionable. If Herbert is out, the Chargers D/ST might see more time on the field as their offense stalls, which could lead to more Eagles scoring opportunities. RotoBaller ranks the Chargers D/ST as D/ST18, but they could be a sneaky good streaming option this week if Herbert plays.

Washington Commanders wide receiver
Noah Brown (groin, knee) was activated off injured reserve and will play in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings. Brown's 21-day practice window was opened last week, but he was ultimately held out for Week 13's game against the Denver Broncos. The 29-year-old wideout has missed 10 consecutive games due to groin and knee injuries. Washington's offense is now as close to full health as it's been all season, with No. 1 wide receiver
Terry McLaurin returning last week and second-year quarterback
Jayden Daniels (elbow) returning on Sunday. Brown will be fourth in the pecking order for targets behind McLaurin,
Deebo Samuel Sr., and
Zach Ertz in his return, and profiles only as a deep league option in Week 14 against the Vikings.

Los Angeles Chargers kicker
Cameron Dicker remains a reliable option despite facing a Week 14 matchup that is expected to be one of the lowest-scoring games of the week. Dicker went 1-for-1 on field goals, hitting a 56-yarder, and was perfect on extra points last week against the Las Vegas Raiders. The drop from his usual top-three ranking to K11 reflects the conservative game projections against a strong Philadelphia Eagles defense and the uncertainty at quarterback, as
Justin Herbert (hand) is listed as questionable. However, the game flow is expected to be run-heavy and competitive, which often leads to stalled drives and more field-goal opportunities. Considering Dicker's consistency and leg strength, fantasy managers should still view him as a dependable low-end K1 who is likely to get enough scoring opportunities throughout the game.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie tight end
Oronde Gadsden faces a tough Week 14 challenge after the passing offense stalled following
Justin Herbert's hand injury, leading to just one catch for 27 yards on two targets last week. Crucially, Gadsden failed to see a red-zone target for the second consecutive game after seeing 10 in the previous five. The matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles is extremely challenging, as their defense ranks among the top three against tight ends, allowing only three touchdowns all season and just nine PPR points per game to the position. RotoBaller ranks Gadsden as TE14 this week, especially with Justin Herbert (hand) listed as questionable. While the rookie has shown promise, the combination of the restructured, short-area passing offense and one of the league's toughest tight end defenses means Gadsden should be considered a high-end TE2 this week.
