Mark Andrews Holding TE1 Value Against Steelers
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews is fresh off of signing a new extension and becoming the triple-crown record breaker in franchise history (receiving touchdowns, receiving yards, and receptions). While his season hasn't been as consistent in years past, Andrews sits at TE13 overall in half-PPR formats. Isaiah Likely was predicted to cut into his production even more this season, but that hasn't happened yet. Andrews will go up against the Pittsburgh Steelers defense in Week 14, which presents a strong matchup for some fantasy points. They give up 15.81 fantasy points per game and have allowed 73 catches for 765 yards and seven touchdowns (6.1 catches and 63.8 yards on average). That lends to him currently projected as TE9 for half-PPR formats on RotoBaller's rankings.

Kirk Cousins a Low-End Option Vs. Seahawks Without Top Receiver
Atlanta Falcons quarterback Kirk Cousins threw for 234 yards and one touchdown in last week's 27-24 loss to the Jets, spreading the ball around to seven different receivers, each with at least two targets apiece. The veteran QB now has an unremarkable 3:1 TD:INT in three starts this season, and heads into a tough matchup in Week 14 against the Seahawks. Seattle's defense has yielded just 152.7 yards per game passing over their last three contests (sixth-fewest) and is middle of the pack in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing QBs. The game will be played indoors in Atlanta, but with the Falcons missing their top receiver, Drake London (knee), and with an implied team total of just 19 points, they are not expected to find the end zone frequently. It all points to Cousins being a very low-end QB2 for Sunday's showdown.

Rams Defense Gets Opportunity to Bounce Back Against Struggling Cardinals
The Los Angeles Rams D/ST was incredibly underwhelming in last week's loss to the Carolina Panthers, surrendering 25 points with just two sacks and zero turnovers. It was an uncharacteristic performance from the Rams' defense, which had ranked as the #2 D/ST unit in fantasy scoring prior to Week 13. They'll have an appealing opportunity to bounce back in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals, who continue to operate without key players such as Kyler Murray (foot), James Conner (foot), and Trey Benson (knee). To make matters worse, the Cardinals will be without wide receivers Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) and Greg Dortch (chest). Jacoby Brissett and Michael Wilson have looked solid in place of Murray and Harrison, respectively. However, the absence of so many key playmakers puts Arizona at an even greater disadvantage against a very strong Rams defense. Los Angeles should capitalize on this fantastic opportunity to bounce back from last week's ugly loss. The Rams D/ST ranks #6 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Zay Flowers Aiming for a Bounce Back Performance Vs. Steelers
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers registered the worst game of his career in Week 13 and it was the first time he failed to reach 10 receiving yards since Week 15 in 2023 where he had one catch for seven yards against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Finishing as the WR106 looks even worse against a defense as bad as the Cincinnati Bengals though. Now, he'll take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14 who are ranked 30th against opposing receivers. They've allowed 37.39 fantasy points per contest and have let receivers accrue a total of 2,061 yards and 14 touchdowns. Flowers and the Ravens' offense have hit some very low lows this year, but his talent and the struggling Steelers secondary has given him WR2 value.

Harrison Mevis a High-Upside Fantasy Kicker Despite Fewer Opportunities
Los Angeles Rams kicker Harrison Mevis has been incredibly accurate since replacing Joshua Karty, but a limited number of field goal attempts has lowered his ceiling and floor in fantasy football. Nevertheless, the Rams' dominant offense keeps Mevis near the top of the fantasy rankings, given that Los Angeles consistently gets into scoring range. The big obstacle in regard to Mevis' fantasy value is that the Rams end a lot of drives with touchdowns, rather than field goals. As a result, he has been accumulating plenty of one-point extra points, but missing out on frequent opportunities to rack up between three and five fantasy points on field goals. In fact, in four games since joining the Rams, Mevis is a whopping 17-for-17 on extra points, but just 2-for-2 on field goals. Accuracy hasn't been an issue, so now, fantasy managers will have to hope that the longer-distance kicks start to show up. Karty averaged 1.9 field goals per game when he was the Rams' kicker, so managers should feel optimistic that Mevis' reduced opportunities are a fluke and he'll handle a larger volume of high-value kicking opportunities as the sample size increases. RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings reflect this upside, as Mevis ranks as the overall K5 for Week 14. A matchup against the Arizona Cardinals could work in his favor, as Arizona has surrendered the second-most fantasy points and third-most field goals to opposing kickers in 2025.

Derrick Henry Carries Low-End RB1 Value in Week 14
Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry is coming off of a RB1 level finish against the Cincinnati Bengals where there were plenty of points left on the table after receiving just 10 carries. Head coach John Harbaugh talked about getting Henry more carries, but this isn't the first time he's said it, even over the course of this season. Plus, in Week 14, Henry faces off against the Pittsburgh Steelers who are currently ranked as the eighth toughest defense against opposing backfields. They allow 19.37 fantasy points per game to running backs and have only given up five rushing touchdowns all season. Henry has had a better time finding the end zone at home which still gives him a bit of a value boost, but he's projected as the RB11 in half-PPR formats on the RotoBaller rankings.

Colby Parkinson Remains Atop Depth Chart, Carries Fantasy Value for Week 14
Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson has established himself as a fantasy-relevant option heading into Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals. Parkinson has emerged as the Rams' top tight end with Tyler Higbee (ankle) on injured reserve, catching 14 of 16 targets for 123 yards and three touchdowns over his last four games. During that four-week window, he ranks as the overall TE6 in half-PPR leagues. Parkinson should continue to find success this week against the Cardinals, who have allowed the 11th-most fantasy points to oppsoing tight ends in 2025. Perhaps the biggest indication that Parkinson faces minimal competition atop the depth chart is that rookie Terrance Ferguson, who had made some big plays when Higbee was healthy, has just three targets and zero catches over the last three weeks. Parkinson has played well enough that Matthew Stafford trusts throwing him the ball, which is enough to preserve his fantasy relevance for another week. He ranks as the overall TE23 in RotoBaller's Week 14 fantasy rankings, but he clearly has top-10 upside. Managers should feel comfortable starting him in leagues with at least 10 teams, especially with bye weeks and injuries limiting the pool of viable streamers at the tight end position.

Jonathan Taylor Remains an Elite RB1 in Week 14 vs. Jaguars
Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor is one of the short favorites to win Offensive Player of the Year as he's put together a historically great season through 12 games so far. Taylor has recorded 226 carries for a league-leading 1,282 rushing yards and 15 touchdowns while adding 35 receptions for 304 yards and two more touchdowns on 40 targets as a receiver. Taylor is averaging 24.8 PPR points per game, only trailing Christian McCaffrey among running backs this season. The superstar running back has cooled off in the past two games, though, totaling 143 yards and no touchdowns on 37 carries following his monster day against the Falcons in Week 10, when he racked up 244 rushing yards and three touchdowns. That was the second-most rushing yards in a game for his career, trailing only his 253-yard outing against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 17 of 2021. Taylor will be looking for a repeat of that performance on Sunday against the Jaguars and ranks as RotoBaller's RB3 in PPR leagues for Week 14.

Lamar Jackson a Low-End QB1 Against Steelers
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has endured quite the rough stretch of fantasy finishes and injuries over the last few weeks. He's dealt with a toe issue, ankle issue, and a hamstring injury earlier in the season. While Jackson has looked rough due to the injuries or not, the Ravens haven't helped him out by making sloppy plays like fumbling at the goal line and getting touchdowns called back. In Week 14, Jackson and company will be going up against their AFC North rivals, the Pittsburgh Steelers, which is a battle for first in the division. With his uncharacteristic struggles this year along with his issues against the Steelers (3-5 record, eight touchdowns and nine interceptions), the two-time MVP is projected as QB11 in RotoBaller's rankings. That's despite the fact that the Steelers' defense has been very generous to opposing quarterbacks (ranked 25th).

Daniel Jones a Borderline QB1 in Week 14 Against Jacksonville
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones has been managing a fractured fibula in recent weeks, which has noticeably impacted his mobility. His production has fallen off after an outstanding start to his Colts tenure early in the season. Over his first eight games, the former New York Giant completed 71.2% of his passes for 2,062 passing yards with 13 touchdowns to three interceptions, while adding 30 carries for 86 yards and four more scores on the ground. He ranked as the QB5 in total fantasy points per game during that time. Jones has remained solid overall, but as the schedule has gotten more challenging and injuries have mounted, he's become more mistake-prone, committing seven turnovers and taking 13 sacks in the past four games. He'll have an opportunity to bounce back in Week 14 against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars, who have been a bottom-10 defense in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks this season.

Darnell Mooney a Low-End WR3 in Tough Matchup Against Seattle
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney underwhelmed last week with his opportunity to produce while the team's top receiver, Drake London (knee), was out with an injury, catching just two of his five targets for 25 scoreless yards. It would be misguided to expect the same production as London out of Mooney, though, as the latter is more of a downfield threat and is five inches shorter, which tends to limit his effectiveness in the red zone. Nevertheless, the 28-year-old will have another opportunity to produce in Week 14 at home against the Seahawks, with London once again ruled out. Seattle has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers for the season and is yielding just 152.7 yards per game through the air over their last three games. Combined with Kirk Cousins' propensity to spread the ball around, Mooney sets up as a low-end WR3 in Week 14.

Jake Moody a Solid Streaming Option in Week 14 Against Vikings
Washington Commanders kicker Jake Moody was perfect in his team debut last week against the Denver Broncos, nailing both field-goal attempts and two extra points. Moody has made 10 of his last 11 attempts since missing two kicks in Week 1 with the San Francisco 49ers and subsequently being released. The 26-year-old profiles as a solid option in Week 14 against the Minnesota Vikings, with Washington's offense consistently able to move the ball into scoring position. The return of quarterback Jayden Daniels (elbow) also boosts the appeal of streaming Moody in fantasy football with Washington's offense as close to full health as it's been all season.

Commanders Defense has Top-10 Potential in Week 14 Against Vikings
The Washington Commanders' defense has been ravaged by injury this season, losing their top three edge rushers and two starting cornerbacks. They've gotten healthier recently with the return of safety Will Harris, but they still profile as one of the worst defenses in the league. However, Washington is in a great spot to perform well against the J.J. McCarthy-led Vikings in Week 14. McCarthy has been a turnover machine this season, committing turnovers in each one of his starts and throwing multiple interceptions in four of his six starts. The second-year quarterback also owns the second-highest sack rate in the league at 11.17%. Washington has struggled to generate consistent pressure and could have trouble defending the run, but they've performed better in the past two games with head coach Dan Quinn taking over the play-calling duties. Quinn has opted to play a heavy amount of zone coverage with a bend-but-don't-break style of defense, which still concedes plenty of yards, but tightens up in the red zone. With how inept the Vikings offense has looked lately, Washington projects as a potential top-10 fantasy defense in Week 14.

Colston Loveland Set for Expanded Week 14 Role
Chicago Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland should see an improved target share in Week 14 against the Green Bay Packers. The 2025 first-round pick has stuttered as of late, totaling just 14 receptions for 172 yards and a touchdown in his last four games. Despite his high draft capital and immense upside, veteran Cole Kmet continues to out-snap the rookie, playing 69% of the snaps in Week 14, while Loveland played just 60%. With Rome Odunze (foot) ruled out for Week 14, the Bears could rely on two-TE sets a lot against the Packers, especially with star pass rusher Micah Parsons demanding double-teams. The Packers have allowed the 12th fewest fantasy points to tight ends this season, but this all comes down to whether the Bears can add more passing volume in Week 14. Loveland offers low-end starting upside in Week 14, who should be a top target in the red zone with Odunze out.

Olamide Zaccheaus Still Risky Despite Vacated Targets
Chicago Bears wide receiver Olamide Zaccheaus enters Week 14 with an uptick in volume expected. Zaccheaus has been phased out of the Bears' offense as of late, totaling just four receptions for 30 yards in his last four games. With the emergence of rookie receiver Luther Burden III, Zaccheaus has played just 27% of the snaps in the past three games. Now, top target Rome Odunze (foot) has been ruled out for Week 14's game against the Green Bay Packers, which should open up targets for Zaccheaus and the other receivers. There are still concerns surrounding Zaccheaus' outlook this week, including the lack of volume from the offense. Caleb Williams currently ranks 23rd in the NFL in completions this season, which makes it very difficult for Zaccheaus to be an option this week, with his limited workload. While the veteran receiver should be a factor in Green Bay this week, he does not offer enough upside to be a starting option.
