Los Angeles Chargers kicker
Cameron Dicker went 2-for-2 on field goals in Week 11 despite the team's struggles on offense. The Chargers possessed the ball for only 22 minutes and reached the red zone once against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Dicker now faces a matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders, whose middle-of-the-road defense has surprisingly allowed the tenth-fewest first downs this season. This creates a favorable situation for Dicker, as the Raiders' stout defense might lead to more field goal attempts than touchdowns. RotoBaller projects Dicker as K5 for the week. Fantasy managers should trust this ranking and consider Dicker a strong high-end K1, expecting more field-goal opportunities in this game.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver
Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) is currently listed as questionable ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Ayomanor has been limited in practice all week due to a lingering hamstring issue. That being said, Ayomanor will carry a questionable tag into Sunday's divisional contest. When healthy, Ayomanor hasn't been anything more than a low-end flex option. If he misses another game,
Chimere Dike and
Van Jefferson figure to see larger roles again.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback
Sam Darnold should have a fine game in Week 13 against the Minnesota Vikings. Although Minnesota boasts a tough defense, Darnold has been able to consistently toss a couple of touchdown passes per game this season. Additionally, Darnold's connection with wide receiver
Jaxon Smith-Njigba has helped buoy a QB2 season from the veteran quarterback. Minnesota has a stout rushing defense, so expect the Seahawks to lean heavily on play-action passes. While Minnesota has a chaotic, attacking passing defense, Seattle should be able to find room to throw in this game. What is more, the Vikings will be starting rookie quarterback
Max Brosmer in Week 13 with
J.J. McCarthy (concussion) still in concussion protocol. As such, the Seahawks should be able to force short fields with an attacking defense of their own. With no teams on a bye this week, you may not need to stream Darnold. However, if you have struggled to find consistent quarterback play elsewhere, you could do much worse than Darnold in Week 13.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver
Jaxon Smith-Njigba should have an excellent game in Week 13 against the Minnesota Vikings. The Vikings are not the best matchup for wide receivers because of their ability to get to the quarterback up front and deploy confusing coverages on the back end. However, JSN has been nothing but matchup-proof all season. Even in the toughest of matchups, Smith-Njigba somehow finds a way to push for 100 receiving yards and earn a scoring opportunity or two. At this point in the season, Smith-Njigba has established himself as one of the very best wide receivers in the league. He has a chance to become the first player to accumulate more than 2,000 receiving yards in a season. He is simply unstoppable. No matchup is going to keep JSN down this season. You can safely deploy him as a top-five wide receiver with upside for a No. 1 overall week in Week 13.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver
Jaylen Waddle will be coming off his bye week this Sunday for a home game against the Saints. Waddle has been a huge part of the Dolphins' recent surge and emerged as a reliable starter every week. The 27-year-old had over 80 yards five times in his last seven games and has hauled in three touchdowns during that span as well. Waddle has at least six targets in nine of his last 10 games and is averaging 65.6 receiving yards per game. With 6.6 targets per game, he's getting plenty of looks from
Tua Tagovailoa, and he's the WR9 in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings in what should be a favorable spot against the Saints.

Tennessee Titans tight end
Chig Okonkwo (foot) is currently tagged as questionable for the Week 13 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Okonkwo has been limited in practice this week due to a lingering foot issue. When healthy, Okonkwo has been a bottom tier fantasy tight end this season. However, the 26-year-old has finished with 40 receiving yards or more in three of his last four games. His fantasy ceiling is fairly low while he continues to split up reps with
Gunnar Helm. If Okonkwo sits, Helm figures to see an expanded role in the offense.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie tight end
Oronde Gadsden faces a tough challenge in Week 13 after recording just two receptions for 41 yards on five targets against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 11. Gadsden's production has declined recently, and he didn't have a red-zone target for the first time in five games, likely because quarterback
Justin Herbert has had limited time to throw downfield. The matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders is particularly tough, as they are a top-five defense against tight ends, allowing only three touchdowns to the position all season. Despite the challenging defense and his decreasing downfield numbers, RotoBaller ranks Gadsden as TE6 this week. His quality targets keep him a strong option, but this matchup pushes him to a low-end TE1 with a potentially limited ceiling.

Miami Dolphins running back
Ollie Gordon II will continue to be the team's primary backup as they come back from their bye week and host the Saints. Gordon had a touchdown in Week 11 with nine carries for 45 rushing yards and a touchdown against the Commanders in Madrid. He has three touchdowns on the year, totaling 164 rushing yards on 50 carries. He played a limited role for a few weeks while dealing with an ankle issue, but he seemed to be past that issue in Week 11 and should definitely be 100% after the bye week. He played 39% of snaps and should continue to get a few opportunities each week as a change-of-pace back. He is the No. 57 RB in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings, meaning that he is best left on the bench in most standard-sized formats in his role, even in this favorable matchup.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Quentin Johnston enters Week 13 after posting his second game with zero receptions in four weeks, failing to catch any of his three targets against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Johnston's production depends heavily on deep targets and red-zone opportunities, but the team's severely injured offensive line has caused quarterback
Justin Herbert to average only 4.7 and 3.8 air yards per attempt in the last two games, heavily limiting the downfield opportunities Johnston needs. He will face a Las Vegas Raiders defense that mainly plays zone coverage, a scheme that doesn't favor Johnston's stronger performances against man coverage. With
Keenan Allen and
Ladd McConkey commanding target shares, and rookie tight end
Oronde Gadsden now handling short-yardage roles, Johnston is likely the odd man out. He remains a boom-or-bust WR4, with a high reliance on touchdowns going forward.

Seattle Seahawks running back
Kenneth Walker III (glute) was on the team's Week 13 injury report with a glute injury, but he has been cleared and will play on Sunday against the visiting Minnesota Vikings, according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times. The 25-year-old was also on the injury report last week with a glute injury, but he ended up playing a season-high 67% of the offensive snaps. Walker had 11 carries for 71 yards on the ground and added three receptions for 30 yards through the air. He has been operating as Seattle's preferred RB this year ahead of
Zach Charbonnet, and that should continue into this weekend's game against the reeling Vikings. Walker should be considered a low-end RB2 in fantasy football now that he's officially cleared from his glute injury. He's been pretty efficient this year, tying a career-high with 4.6 yards per carry on 147 rushing attempts through 11 games.

Miami Dolphins running back
De'Von Achane has been on fire for the Dolphins during their recent run of success, and he is in a smash spot this week against the Saints. Achane produced 120 rushing yards and 45 receiving yards in Miami's win over the Commanders before last week's bye, and he was even better the previous week, with 22 carries for 174 and six catches for 51 yards and a pair of touchdowns against the Bills. This season, he has been extremely productive with nine touchdowns and an average of 115.5 rushing plus receiving yards per game. He has a great matchup against the Saints, who have been very beatable on the ground in the last few weeks. The combination of his recent surge and the Saints' struggles against the run makes Achane the No. 1 RB in all of RotoBaller's RB rankings for Week 13.

Arizona Cardinals running back
Bam Knight (knee) is listed as questionable for the Week 13 game on Sunday against the hosting Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to Darren Urban of AZCardinals.com. The Cardinals' backfield could be dangerously thin if Knight isn't able to play this weekend.
Trey Benson (knee) will not come off the Injured Reserve, and
Emari Demercado (ankle) has been ruled out for another game, too. If the 24-year-old Knight doesn't get cleared by Sunday,
Michael Carter would jump into the RB1 role for the Cardinals, with
Jermar Jefferson likely backing him up. Knight has been serving as the team's No. 1 back with Benson out. He was limited in practice all week, suggesting that he's on the right side of questionable. He's averaging a paltry 3.1 yards per carry in nine games (five starts) this year. If active, he'll be a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex for fantasy managers.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Keenan Allen was a rare bright spot in the team's disastrous loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, leading the team with four receptions for 53 yards on six targets. Despite his route rate recently increasing, Allen's target rate has stabilized at around five targets per game, and he has only seen one red-zone target over the last four contests, limiting his overall upside. He faces a favorable matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, who play zone coverage at the second-highest rate in the league. Allen is significantly more effective against zone coverage than man, making him a reliable, high-floor target for the often under-pressure
Justin Herbert. RotoBaller ranks Allen as WR41 this week, reflecting concerns over his decreased usage and limited red-zone opportunities. Given his favorable zone matchup and reliability in moving the chains, Allen can be considered a sneaky FLEX option.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver
Ladd McConkey seems poised for a strong bounce-back week after a quiet performance in Week 11, where he caught three passes for 13 yards on four targets in the team's blowout loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. McConkey faces a struggling Las Vegas Raiders defense that ranks middle-of-the-road against the pass. The Raiders rely heavily on zone coverage, which benefits McConkey since he has a higher rate of fantasy points per target against zone than man coverage. With quarterback
Justin Herbert struggling behind a battered offensive line, McConkey could see more quick, short targets to compensate for Herbert's limited time in the pocket. RotoBaller ranks McConkey as WR14 this week, and he should be considered a mid-tier WR2 who will be a primary focus in the passing game.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) has no injury designation and is good to go for Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Thomas practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and is set to return in Week 13 after missing three straight games with a high-ankle injury suffered during Jacksonville's win over the Raiders in Week 9. The second-year wideout hasn't been able to replicate his numbers from his historic rookie season so far, recording 30 receptions (60 targets) for 420 yards and two total touchdowns in eight games. Thomas will also have more competition for targets in his return, with the Jaguars acquiring
Jakobi Meyers at the trade deadline,
Brenton Strange returning in Week 12, and the emergence of
Parker Washington. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR30 in PPR leagues for Week 13 against the Titans.
