Cleveland Browns running back
Quinshon Judkins turned in a strong effort in a Week 12 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, rushing for two touchdowns, although he finished with just 47 yards on 16 carries. Judkins will look to find the end zone again in Week 13's home matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The 49ers have been tough against the run this season, allowing just the 19th-most fantasy points per game to running backs thus far this season. Judkins has seven touchdowns in 10 games for the Browns this season but has seen his ceiling capped by a scuffling offense. He sets up as a low-end RB2 in Week 13.

Houston Texans wide receiver
Nico Collins had a very quiet week last week against the Bills, catching three passes for 55 yards in his team's big upset victory. He only had three targets, which was a sharp drop-off after double-digit targets in each of his previous four games. This week, he'll get starting QB
C.J. Stroud back from a concussion, which raises his ceiling and gives the entire offense more upside than with
Davis Mills. Collins has totaled 52 catches for just under 700 yards in 10 games, and he'll look to take advantage of a favorable matchup against the Colts, who rank in the top 10 this season in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers. Collins has a very high ceiling, but Stroud could be a little rusty after three weeks off, so there are also some risk factors to consider. He's the No. 11 WR in RotoBaller's rankings for this week, making him a starter in almost all formats, even though he isn't quite a top-10 option at the position after last week's down game and with Stroud ramping back up.

Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver
Jaylin Lane (hip) was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday due to a hip injury, but was upgraded to full on Friday and heads into Sunday night's matchup against the Denver Broncos without an injury designation. Lane suffered the injury during Washington's Week 11 loss to the Miami Dolphins, but had the bye week to recover and is good to go for Sunday. The rookie fourth-rounder has been forced into more action on offense than expected this season with Washington being ravaged by injury at wide receiver. The speedy rookie has recorded a reception in all 11 games this season, totaling 16 catches for 225 yards on 30 targets. He had the longest catch of his career with a 41-yard gain on a deep ball from
Marcus Mariota in Week 10 against the Lions. However, he figures to slide back into a depth role in Week 13 against the Broncos with
Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and
Treylon Burks (finger) both returning.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver
Jerry Jeudy has been unable to find much success over the last few weeks. Jeudy has been held to 39 receiving yards or fewer in four of his last five games. The hope was that Jeudy would see increased value with
Shedeur Sanders under center. That wasn't the case as Jeudy hauled in one of his three targets for 39 yards last week. It won't get any easier for Jeudy with a matchup against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. The 26-year-old should be viewed as a low-end flex option in deep leagues.

Houston Texans running back
Nick Chubb continues to play a reduced role in the team's backfield, which keeps him from being a good fantasy play in most formats this week. Chubb has only totaled 14 rushing attempts in his last three games for a total of 80 yards, along with two catches for only four receiving yards. He has played under 30% of his team's offensive snaps in each of his last three weeks as well, as the team leans more heavily on rookie
Woody Marks. Chubb's fantasy value is extremely touchdown-dependent, which is not usually a good thing since he hasn't found the end zone since Week 5 against the Ravens. He's only the RB57 in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings, so he should be left on the bench or waiver wire in most formats.
--Zach ThompsonSource: NFL.com
November 28, 2025
Cleveland Browns quarterback
Shedeur Sanders will make his second career start in a Week 13 home matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Sanders looked decent in Week 12's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, completing 11 of his 20 passes for 209 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He will look to build upon that encouraging debut in Week 13 against a 49ers defense that is allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks this season. While Sanders looked more competent than
Dillon Gabriel under center, he is still tough to trust in single-quarterback fantasy leagues and is best left on the bench for Week 13's matchup.
--Matt TerelleSource: NFL.com
November 28, 2025
Houston Texans running back
Woody Marks will look to continue establishing himself as the team's top backfield option this week, as the Texans roll into Indianapolis to face the division-leading Colts. Marks has double-digit carries in six straight weeks since the team's bye week, and he had 74 yards on his 16 carries last week against the Bills, while playing 69% of the team's offensive snaps. He didn't get into the end zone in that matchup, but he has four touchdowns on the season to go with his 422 rushing yards and 185 receiving yards. He has taken on more work over the last few weeks while
Nick Chubb's role has decreased. This week against the Colts, Marks is the RB24 in RotoBaller's rankings, making him a low-end RB2 or strong flex play in this road matchup.

Chicago Bears tight end
Cole Kmet led the team in receiving on a day in which both running backs
D'Andre Swift and
Kyle Monangai went over 100 rushing yards apiece with two rushing touchdowns in a 24-15 win over the hosting Philadelphia Eagles on Friday. Kmet caught all three of his targets on the day for only 36 yards and his second touchdown of the year. Second-year quarterback
Caleb Williams only threw for 154 yards as the Bears leaned heavily on the run against Philly. The 26-year-old Kmet's touchdown reception came on a 28-yard strike for the team's only passing TD of the game. It was nice to see Kmet find the end zone again, but rookie first-rounder
Colston Loveland (who had three catches for 28 yards in the game) remains the more attractive upside stash in most fantasy leagues for the rest of the season. Kmet has more than one catch in just two of the last seven games.

Houston Texans quarterback
C.J. Stroud (concussion) has cleared the NFL's concussion protocol and will be ready to rejoin his team this week in a huge road game against the Colts. Stroud has missed the last three games since departing in Week 9 with a concussion against the Broncos.
Davis Mills led the team to three straight wins, and they're 6-5, sitting on the edge of playoff contention. Stroud threw for 1,702 yards in his eight games with 11 touchdowns and five interceptions. In his last full game, he looked very effective with 318 passing yards and two touchdowns against the 49ers. He was inconsistent in some of his early games this season and took some time to adjust to new offensive coordinator Nick Caley's system. However, he started to show off his upside just before his concussion, and he'll look to pick up where he left off in this important matchup on Sunday. He's the No. 20 QB in RotoBaller's rankings this week, making him a low-end QB2 for this week against the Colts.

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback
Jalen Hurts was unable to turn the team's offensive woes around in their 24-15 loss to the visiting Chicago Bears on Black Friday, going 19-for-34 passing for 230 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. Hurts ran the ball four times for 31 yards and also lost a fumble on a tush push. He was not sacked at all in the game. The 27-year-old only threw for 57 yards in the first half against Chicago, but he was able to pick things up after halftime, with both of his touchdown passes going to receiver
A.J. Brown -- one on a 33-yard strike. The Eagles' offense has left a lot to be desired for everyone involved in 2025. However, it could be worse for Hurts' fantasy managers, as he has thrown for three touchdowns and run two in over the last two games. The two-time Pro Bowler will take on the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night in Week 14.

Washington Commanders wide receiver
Treylon Burks (finger) has been cleared from the injury report and is good to go for Sunday night's matchup against the Denver Broncos. Burks missed Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins after undergoing surgery on a broken finger suffered in Week 10 against the Detroit Lions. He reportedly got his finger stuck in the cornerback's facemask and broke it in half, but still made the catch on the play. The former first-round pick in 2022 has been riddled by injuries for most of his career in the NFL, but he has an opportunity to stick in Washington. Burks was impressive in limited action against the Lions in Week 10, playing 38.9% of the snaps and hauling in all three of his targets for 58 yards. His role in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos is to be determined with No. 1 wideout
Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) returning, but Burks isn't a fantasy-relevant player right now regardless.

Chicago Bears rookie running back
Kyle Monangai continues to prove that he deserves more run next to
D'Andre Swift in the team's backfield. In the Bears' 24-15 win over the hosting Philadelphia Eagles on Black Friday, Monangai dominated on the ground and led the team with 22 rushing attempts for 130 yards and a touchdown. The 23-year-old was unable to haul in his only target in the passing game. The only other time that the seventh-rounder had 20-plus carries in 2025 was back on Nov. 2 against the Cincinnati Bengals when Swift was sidelined due to injury. Swift was no slouch on Friday, either, rushing 18 times for 125 yards and a TD of his own. Monangai's fantasy stock is definitely on the rise, but the volume he saw on Friday should be considered an outlier. He'll be more of a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex going into a tough Week 14 matchup against the division-rival Green Bay Packers.

The Houston Texans D/ST has proven to be a strong enough unit to be a starting option even in tough matchups like this week's on the road in Indianapolis against the Colts. The Texans held
Josh Allen and the Bills to only 19 points last Thursday night, while racking up eight sacks to go with two interceptions and a fumble recovery. The Texans have only allowed more than 20 points twice this season, while amassing 33 sacks in 11 games to go with 19 takeaways and two defensive touchdowns. The Colts have been one of the toughest matchups in the league for opposing D/ST this season, but because the Texans have been so good at getting pressure on the quarterback, they're still a starting option, checking in at No. 10 in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings.

The Chicago Bears' rushing attack was unstoppable in their Week 13 win over the hosting Philadelphia Eagles on Black Friday. Running back
D'Andre Swift carried the ball 18 times for 125 rushing yards and scored on the ground in the 24-15 victory, adding one catch on his two targets for a gain of 13 yards. The crazy part is that the 26-year-old wasn't even Chicago's leading rusher on the day, as rookie
Kyle Monangai led the team with 22 carries for 130 yards and also scored on the ground. Although Swift's fantasy managers can't be all that pleased that Monangai out-touched Swift, it was still nice to see Swift score his first touchdown on the ground since Week 8. Swift was Chicago's clear lead back for most of the season, but Monangai's emergence now gives the Bears the option to ride the hot hand as they get ready for a crucial divisional contest in Week 14 against the Green Bay Packers.

Washington Commanders wide receiver
Deebo Samuel Sr. bounced back with one of his best performances of the season in Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins, hauling in seven of his eight targets for 74 yards and a touchdown, his most yards in a game since Week 5 against the Los Angeles Chargers. Samuel has now scored in back-to-back weeks, but faces a tough matchup out of Washington's Week 12 bye against a stingy Denver Broncos defense. The former San Francisco 49er will have more competition for targets in Week 13 with No. 1 wideout
Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) returning from a multi-game absence, as well as Treyon Burks (finger) after missing Week 11 against Miami. Samuel has a safe floor for receptions due to his usage on manufactured touches, recording at least four receptions in eight of 10 games played this season. He ranks as more of a WR3 in Week 13 against a Denver defense that has allowed the fewest PPR points per game to opposing wide receivers this season.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver
A.J. Brown is on a heater. After publicly complaining about his role in what has been a lackluster offense in 2025, Brown has now gone over 100 yards receiving in each of the last two games while scoring three times. In the team's 24-15 loss to the visiting Chicago Bears on Black Friday, the 28-year-old caught a season-high 10 passes on 12 targets (also a season high) for a season-high 132 yards and two touchdowns. Philly's offense didn't look great once again outside of Brown's big game against Chicago. For the time being, he has returned to the WR1 role in Philly over
DeVonta Smith, but that could easily change heading into the team's Week 14 tilt on the road on Monday Night Football against the Chargers. Fantasy managers have to like the way things are trending with Brown at the moment, though, as we get closer to the fantasy postseason.

Washington Commanders wide receiver
Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) has been cleared from the injury report and will play in Week 13 against the Denver Broncos on Sunday Night Football. McLaurin missed four games after initially injuring his quad in Week 3 against the Las Vegas Raiders, then reaggravated the injury in Week 8 versus the Kansas City Chiefs and hasn't played since. The Ohio State product was a full participant in Thursday's practice before getting a rest day on Friday. McLaurin looked great in the limited number of snaps he played against the Chiefs, catching three of his four targets for 54 yards and a touchdown. He'll provide a major lift to a Washington offense that has been decimated by injuries and will be without second-year quarterback
Jayden Daniels (elbow) for the third straight game. It's a tough matchup for McLaurin to return for, as the Broncos will be getting star cornerback Patrick Surtain II (pectoral) back on Sunday night. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR39 in PPR leagues for Week 13.

New York Giants wide receiver
Darius Slayton (hamstring) was listed as limited in practice for the second straight day on Friday due to a hamstring injury, according to the team's official website. Slayton missed the Week 11 game due to a hamstring injury, but he returned in last week's overtime loss to the Detroit Lions to catch one of his two targets for only 23 yards. The 28-year-old could draw a questionable tag going into Monday night's game against the New England Patriots unless he practices in full on Saturday. Slayton will have a higher fantasy ceiling if he's active on Monday with rookie first-round quarterback
Jaxson Dart (concussion) returning to action, although he's been the clear No. 2 in New York in 2025 behind target hog
Wan'Dale Robinson. Slayton has been a low-ceiling fantasy wideout this year and is still searching for his first touchdown. He has gone over 50 receiving yards in a game just three times.

Houston Texans kicker
Ka'imi Fairbairn returned from a two-week absence due to a quad injury last week and looked solid in his team's win over the Bills. This week, he'll take on the Colts indoors at Lucas Oil Stadium in a divisional contest. Against the Bills, he made all three of his field goal attempts with a long of 43 yards, along with a pair of extra points. In each of his last six games, the 31-year-old from Hawaii has now made multiple field goals, including 12 total field goals in his last three games. For the season, he is 25-for-28 on field goal attempts, including 5-for-8 from at least 50 yards. He's also made 14 extra points in his nine contests this season. This week, he's the No. 9 kicker in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings.

Cade Otton is looking to bounce back after posting back-to-back duds. Otton has been held to six receptions for 49 yards and zero touchdowns over his last two games. Prior to that, Otton posted a nine-catch game in Week 10. The return of Chris Godwin figures to cut into Otton's volume going forward. Also, the fact quarterback
Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is banged up could impact the passing game in Week 13. Otton should be viewed on the lower end of the TE options for the upcoming matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.

New York Giants wide receiver
Wan'Dale Robinson (ankle) was still limited in practice on Friday due to an ankle injury, according to the team's official website. Both Robinson and
Darius Slayton (hamstring) have been limited this week, and they could draw questionable tags for Monday night's game against the New England Patriots if they cannot upgrade to a full practice on Saturday. The 24-year-old Robinson has been a target hog in 2025, regardless of who has been under center leading the Giants' offense. He ranks sixth in the NFL with his 102 targets, and he has turned them into 66 receptions for 794 yards and three touchdowns in 12 games. If Robinson is active in Week 13, he'll be a high-floor WR2 in point-per-reception leagues against New England with rookie first-round quarterback
Jaxson Dart making his return following a two-game absence due to a concussion.
--Keith HernandezSource: Giants.com
November 28, 2025
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Tez Johnson has been a solid red zone threat for this offense recently. Johnson has scored three touchdowns over his last three games. Sadly, the yardage hasn't been there as Johnson has been held to 42 yards or fewer in two of his last three games. It's also worth noting that quarterback
Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is banged up coming into this game. It's unclear how well Mayfield is going to be able to pass this weekend. Fellow wideout Chris Godwin should see a larger role this weekend after being eased back into action last week. Johnson has decent upside, but should be viewed as a touchdown-dependent option for the Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.
--Andy WebbSource: Pro Football Reference
November 28, 2025
Miami Dolphins kicker
Riley Patterson will continue to fill in for
Jason Sanders (hip) as he has all season, and this week, he's in a good kicking matchup against the Saints as the Dolphins return from their bye week. Patterson has connected on 17 of his 19 field goal attempts and 23 of his 24 extra points on the year, although he did miss his only attempt from 50+ yards. Before the bye week, he made all three of his field goals in Madrid, and he'll return to action in Week 13 at Hard Rock Stadium this week. In the RotoBaller Week 13 rankings, he checks in as the No. 18 kicker, meaning he can be used in deep leagues but is probably not the strongest available option in standard-sized leagues, during this week with no teams on a bye week.
--Zach ThompsonSource: NFL.com
November 28, 2025
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Emeka Egbuka hasn't found much success over the last few weeks. Egbuka has been held to 40 receiving yards or fewer in three of the last four games. The rookie wideout has shown great flashes, but has also posted a good amount of duds. It's also worth noting that quarterback
Baker Mayfield (shoulder) is extremely banged up right now, so it's unclear how well he'll be in the passing game this weekend. Egbuka has tremendous upside, but has the floor of a WR3 for the upcoming Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals.

Washington Commanders running back
Jeremy McNichols has maintained his role as the team's primary back on pass downs for the majority of this season. McNichols has totaled 26 carries for 181 yards and a touchdown to go along with 15 receptions for 149 yards on 20 targets as a receiver. The veteran has two games with double-digit PPR points this season, with the first coming in Week 3 against the Las Vegas Raiders when he broke off a career-long 60-yard touchdown run, and the second in Week 8 versus the Kansas City Chiefs when he racked up five receptions for 64 yards. McNichols' season high for touches is only six as he remains behind
Chris Rodriguez Jr. and
Jacory Croskey-Merritt, so the weekly floor for fantasy is still low, keeping him relevant primarily in deeper leagues.

The Miami Dolphins D/ST has been vulnerable throughout the season, but they're in a great matchup in Week 13 against the Saints. The Dolphins are the No. 7 DST in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings against rookie QB
Tyler Shough and fill-in rookie running back
Devin Neal, who will take over after
Alvin Kamara (knee) was ruled out. The Dolphins have allowed under 14 points in three of the last four weeks, including their most recent game, which was before their bye week against the Commanders in Spain. They had two takeaways and a sack in that game, bringing their total to 21 sacks and 12 takeaways in 11 games. They haven't scored a defensive touchdown yet, but they should be in a strong enough matchup to be a strong streaming option in Week 13.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back
Rachaad White has seen an increased role in the rushing game with
Bucky Irving (shoulder, foot) sidelined for the last seven games. Now, Irving is back and ready to suit up for the Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The Bucs will likely ease him back into the mix, but this won't be a favorable situation for fantasy managers. The expectation is that
Sean Tucker will stay involved as well, so this should be a three-back committee. White will probably be at the bottom of that committee, so he won't be an ideal fantasy option for Week 13. At best, White is a low-end flex option for the upcoming matchup against the Cardinals.

November 28, 2025
Washington Commanders wide receiver
Treylon Burks (finger) was removed from the team's final Week 13 injury report and will suit up on Sunday night against the visiting Denver Broncos, according to the team's official website. Burks needed surgery on his finger, which is why he was unavailable to play in Week 11 before the team's Week 12 bye. The 25-year-old former first-rounder is now ready to go after upgrading to a full practice on Friday. The Commanders' struggling offense will also get top wideout
Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) back for the first time since Week 8. Burks should continue to have a role in Washington with both
Noah Brown (groin, knee) and
Luke McCaffrey (shoulder) out, but the volume likely won't be enough to warrant attention as a realistic starting fantasy option, especially against an elite Broncos defense. Burks has appeared in only two games for the Commanders this year and has caught all four of his targets for 72 scoreless yards.
--Keith HernandezSource: Commanders.com
November 28, 2025
Washington Commanders rookie running back
Jacory Croskey-Merritt has lost his lead role in the team's backfield over the past few weeks. Third-year back
Chris Rodriguez Jr. has taken over as the lead back for the Commanders, with Croskey-Merritt rotating in on early downs and veteran
Jeremy McNichols holding down the pass-down responsibilities. The rookie seventh-rounder's production dropped off a cliff after the first five games of the season. After recording 43 carries for 283 yards (6.6 YPC) and four touchdowns to go with five receptions (seven targets) for 54 yards in Weeks 1 through 5, Croskey-Merritt has 71 carries for 215 yards and zero touchdowns with four receptions (six targets) for 14 yards in Weeks 6 through 11. That leaves him off fantasy radars for Sunday Night Football against a strong Denver Broncos defense that has allowed the 10th fewest PPR points per game to opposing running backs.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back
Sean Tucker earned himself a larger role in the offense after scoring three touchdowns in Week 11. He followed up that performance with 42 rushing yards on 12 attempts during last week's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Now, it's unclear what kind of role Tucker is going to have with lead back
Bucky Irving returning this weekend. The 24-year-old figures to still have a role, but this could turn into a three-back committee with
Rachaad White involved as well. The Bucs figure to limit Irving during his first game back in the mix. Tucker should remain involved, but shouldn't be viewed as anything more than a low-end flex option for Week 13.
