Atlanta Falcons wide receiver
Darnell Mooney scored his first touchdown of the season in Week 12 against the New Orleans Saints, hauling in all three targets for 74 yards. It was also Mooney's most receiving yards in a game this season as he took advantage of star wide receiver
Drake London (knee) being sidelined. With London ruled out again for Week 13, Mooney should be in line to lead the Atlanta passing attack again versus the New York Jets. The 28-year-old has a solid rapport with quarterback
Kirk Cousins and should be able to exploit a Jets defense that traded away its two best defenders at the deadline. Mooney ranks as RotoBaller's WR32 in PPR formats for Week 13.

The Atlanta Falcons defense/special teams will be in position to keep rolling in Week 13 as they take on a Jets team featuring
Tyrod Taylor at quarterback and averaging just 17 points per game over the last three weeks. The Falcons have been getting after opposing QBs as of late, recording five sacks or more in each of the last four games, and have notched three interceptions and three fumble recoveries over that stretch. This unit will be without S Billy Bowman Jr. (Achilles) and DE Zach Harrison (knee), but that was the case last week as well, so the defense has managed to play well despite injuries. It all makes Atlanta a viable streaming option this week, especially in a game with one of the lowest expected totals on the slate (38.5).

Los Angeles Rams tight end
Colby Parkinson is riding a three-game touchdown streak and has recorded 10 receptions (11 targets) for 96 yards over that span as the team's top tight end. With
Tyler Higbee (ankle) on Injured Reserve, Parkinson has taken over as the top tight end in a potent Rams offense. He has firmly established himself as a relevant option for fantasy, totaling the third most PPR points among tight ends in the last three games. The 26-year-old should be considered as a streamer again in Week 13 against a Carolina Panthers defense that has allowed the second-most receiving yards to opposing tight ends this season.

Indianapolis Colts rookie tight end
Tyler Warren (illness) is expected to play on Sunday against the Houston Texans, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Warren is listed as questionable as he battled a stomach virus, but all indications are that the rookie will be able to go for a key divisional game. The 23-year-old has excelled in his first 11 games in the NFL, securing 55 of his 74 targets for 662 yards and three touchdowns, averaging 13.3 PPR points per game. He will likely be relied on heavily again in Week 13 against the Texans and should be started in all fantasy formats.

Washington Commanders running back
Chris Rodriguez Jr. has operated as part of a committee in recent weeks after not having a major role early in the season. The third-year back holds a narrow lead in rush attempts over rookie
Jacory Croskey-Merritt in the past three games, recording 33 carries for 160 yards and two touchdowns compared to Croskey-Merritt with 32 rushes for 96 yards and no touchdowns. Rodriguez is the better fit down near the goal line with his ability to fight through tackles and consistently gain positive yardage. His upside for fantasy is capped a bit by his lack of involvement in the pass game, as
Jeremy McNichols has handled that role for the bulk of the season, but Rodriguez holds weekly touchdown upside and should lead Washington's backfield in carries for the remainder of the season. However, it's a tough Week 13 matchup against a Denver Broncos defense that is allowing a league-best 3.6 yards per carry this season.

Atlanta Falcons kicker
Zane Gonzalez went 3-for-3 on field goals last week, including nailing one from 56 yards out, and is now 6-for-6 in three games as the team's place kicker. The 30-year-old is also perfect on extra points, going 6-for-6 over the three-game stretch. The team's third kicker this season has appeared to have brought some stability to the position, and will look to stay perfect on the road against the Jets in Week 13. He could have to deal with light rain in East Rutherford, but in a game with a low expected total (38.5) with the potential for stalled drives, Gonzalez could see a couple opportunities to convert field goals. Even so, the Arizona State product projects well outside the top 12, so there could be better options available in games with higher totals and/or being played indoors.

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver
Chimere Dike hauled in his second touchdown of the season in last week's loss to the Seattle Seahawks, finishing with five receptions for 44 yards on seven targets. His seven targets were tied for the team lead with rookie tight end
Gunnar Helm. Since Week 7, Dike has emerged as a legitimate threat as a receiver for the Titans, leading the team with 19 receptions for 226 yards and two touchdowns on 24 targets, averaging 10.7 PPR points per game in that five-game span. The rookie fourth-rounder has been dynamic with the ball in his hands, including as a return man, where he leads the league in all-purpose yards and with two punt return touchdowns. With rookie quarterback
Cameron Ward also showing positive signs lately, Dike has flex appeal in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars and ranks as RotoBaller's WR44 in PPR formats.

New York Jets wide receiver
John Metchie III has performed well since being acquired at the trade deadline from the Philadelphia Eagles. Excluding his first game in New York where he only played eight offensive snaps, Metchie has recorded nine receptions for 110 yards and two touchdowns on 10 targets while playing 84.5% of the snaps. The 25-year-old has more than doubled the next closest Jets pass catcher in receiving yards in the past two games, with fellow trade acquisition
Adonai Mitchell the next closest at 52 yards. With
Garrett Wilson (knee) on Injured Reserve, Metchie has the runway to lead the Jets' passing attack over the next few weeks. The offense was more functional last week with
Tyrod Taylor under center, though it's still not a good offensive environment. Metchie has flex value in deeper leagues for Week 13 versus the Atlanta Falcons, ranking as RotoBaller's WR49 in PPR leagues.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Mike Evans (collarbone) has been sidelined since Week 7 after suffering a broken collarbone during their loss to the Detroit Lions. Evans was expected to miss most of the remainder of the season with the injury, but head coach Todd Bowles said earlier this week that he is on track to return before the end of the regular season. The veteran is eligible to have his practice window opened, but that hasn't happened just yet. Evans collected 14 receptions (32 targets) for 140 yards and a touchdown in the four games before going down and should reclaim his role as Tampa Bay's No. 1 wideout if he can return at some point. It's still unclear when Evans will return, but he is worth adding and stashing in leagues where he was dropped as more information comes out about his status.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end
Brenton Strange hauled in all five of his targets for a career-high 93 yards in his return from injury in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. It was encouraging to see Strange return to a full snap share and look healthy after being sidelined since Week 5 due to a hip injury. The third-year tight end has been solid in six games of action this season, averaging 4.2 receptions for 49.5 receiving yards on 4.8 targets per game. Strange will have more competition for targets on Sunday against the Titans with
Brian Thomas Jr. returning, but he still projects as a solid option. Strange ranks as RotoBaller's TE12 in PPR leagues for Week 13.

Los Angeles Chargers running back
Kimani Vidal gave fantasy managers a dud during the Week 11 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Vidal rushed the ball five times for 13 yards in the defeat. To be fair, the Chargers were getting blown out, so they basically had to abandon the rushing game. Vidal should return to his workhorse workload with
Hassan Haskins (hamstring) and
Omarion Hampton (ankle) both sidelined in Week 13. He'll draw a favorable matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders defense this weekend. Fantasy managers should feel comfortable plugging Vidal in as an RB2 for this Week 13 matchup.

Miami Dolphins tight end
Darren Waller (pectoral) has been activated off the injured reserve ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Waller is ready to return to action after being sidelined since suffering a pectoral injury in Week 6. When healthy, Waller was a viable asset with four touchdowns over his first three games with the team. The expectation is that Waller will return to being a red-zone threat for the team this weekend. There is no word of the Dolphins easing Waller back into action. That being said, Waller should be a full-go and viewed as high-end TE2 for Week 13.

Seattle Seahawks running back
Myles Gaskin was recently re-signed to the practice squad earlier in the week. Now, Gaskin will be signed to the active roster ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The Seahawks are in need of another running back with
George Holani (hamstring) heading to the injured reserve. Gaskin hasn't actually seen a rushing attempt since the 2024 season with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 28-year-old will serve as a depth option behind
Kenneth Walker III and
Zach Charbonnet.

Pittsburgh Steelers left tackle Broderick Jones (neck) has officially been placed on the injured reserve. Jones will now miss at least the next four games due to a neck injury he suffered during last week's loss to the Chicago Bears. This is a tough blow to the Steelers as Jones was playing well as their starting left tackle. He was a former first-round pick of the team from 2023, but will hopefully be back in the mix before the end of the season. The expectation is that Andrus Peat will take over as the starting left tackle for the Week 13 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Jalen McMillan (neck) was cleared by a spine specialist this week. That means, McMillan should be able to begin practicing as early as this upcoming week. The 23-year-old has been sidelined all season due to multiple broken bones in his neck. The hope is that McMillan will be able to contribute to this Bucs roster at some point. Once his practice window is opened, the Bucs will have 21 days to activate McMillan before he goes back to the injured reserve. It's unclear at the moment how much time he's going to need to get ready to play again. For now, McMillan isn't anything more than a possible deep league stash or dynasty hold.
