Cincinnati Bengals running back
Chase Brown handled 12 carries for just 23 yards while adding three receptions (four targets) for 12 yards and another touchdown as a receiver in Sunday's loss in snowy Buffalo. Brown continues his stretch of strong production for fantasy managers, averaging 19.2 PPR points per game over his last six outings. The 25-year-old running back surprisingly had his lowest yards-per-carry mark in a game this season against a Bills defense that allowed 5.2 yards a pop entering the game, the second-worst mark in the league. It comes after three straight games in which the speedy back averaged over five yards per tote. But Brown made up for his lack of efficiency by posting his second two-touchdown game of the season. He will remain a high-end fantasy option in Week 15's divisional matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver
Jerry Jeudy broke out with one of his best games of the season in Week 14's loss to the Tennessee Titans, catching three of his five targets for 76 yards and a touchdown. It was the 26-year-old's first touchdown since Week 10 versus the New York Jets, which is also his only other game this season with 75 or more receiving yards. The former Denver Broncos wideout hasn't found much production since rookie quarterback
Shedeur Sanders took over in Week 12, averaging just 8.4 PPR points per game, but perhaps the promising performances by both players in this game will provide some positive momentum just in time for the fantasy playoffs in most leagues in Weeks 15-17. Jeudy will look to stay productive in Week 15 as the Browns go on the road to take on the Chicago Bears.

Cincinnati Bengals tight end
Mike Gesicki scored his first touchdown of the season while also recording a season high in receptions and receiving yards, hauling in all six of his targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills. Gesicki hasn't played a big role in Cincinnati's offense this season, but he has been surging recently and tied receiver
Tee Higgins for the team lead in receptions in Sunday's shootout with the Bills in the snow. The 30-year-old has totaled 12 receptions for 140 yards and a touchdown on 16 targets over the past three games. In Cincinnati's high-volume passing offense with quarterback
Joe Burrow back in the fold, Gesicki could be in for a productive end to the season as the No. 3 option behind Higgins and
Ja'Marr Chase.

Houston Texans wide receiver
Nico Collins posted four receptions for 121 yards on eight targets during Sunday night's 20-10 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. Even in a tough matchup, Collins continued his strong stretch of production in recent weeks, clearing 100 yards for the third time this season. The star wideout has gone over 90 receiving yards in four of the past five games after a somewhat slow start to the season. The 26-year-old is the clear alpha of the Texans' passing attack and remains a top-10 wide receiver in fantasy football. Collins will profile as a high-end option again in Week 15 against an Arizona Cardinals defense that just allowed Rams wideout
Puka Nacua to rack up 167 yards and two touchdowns in Week 14.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Alec Pierce (undisclosed) suffered an undisclosed injury in Sunday's 36-19 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14. Pierce got up slowly after making an apparent touchdown catch on the final drive of the game (the catch was eventually overturned). The 25-year-old caught five of his eight targets for a team-high 80 receiving yards on the day. There was speculation that Pierce was being put through the concussion protocol after landing hard late in the game, but that turned out to be false. It appears that Pierce avoided a serious injury, but we should know more early next week as the team prepares to face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Pierce has become a valid flex play in fantasy as he earns more targets in Indy's passing attack, but with quarterback
Daniel Jones feared to have suffered a season-ending torn Achilles, that could quickly change with the start of the fantasy playoffs looming in most leagues next week.

Houston Texans running back
Nick Chubb (rib) suffered a rib injury in the first half of the Sunday night game against the Kansas City Chiefs and has been ruled out for the rest of the contest, according to KPRC 2 Sports' Aaron Wilson. Before getting hurt, Chubb had just one rushing attempt for three yards. The 29-year-old was not targeted in the passing game. Rookie
Woody Marks, who had already taken over Houston's backfield in the absence of
Joe Mixon (ankle, foot), hasn't been very efficient on the ground against the Chiefs, but he was able to haul in a short touchdown pass in the first quarter. Regardless of whether Chubb is able to return for a Week 15 game against the Arizona Cardinals, Marks should be Houston's RB1 the rest of the season. If Chubb can't make it back next week,
Dare Ogunbowale would likely operate as the RB2 for the Texans behind Marks.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback
Jacoby Brissett completed 25 of 44 pass attempts for 271 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in his team's 45-17 Week 14 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Arizona's pass-happy attack continues to allow Brissett to post solid numbers. Across 10 games (eight starts) worth of action in 2025, the 32-year-old has thrown for 2,459 yards, 15 touchdowns, and five picks. Brissett has thrown for at least 258 yards in all eight of his starts and topped 300 passing yards in four separate contests. He's also attempted at least 40 pass attempts in five straight weeks and is averaging an incredible 43.3 pass attempts per start so far in 2025. As long as the Cardinals continue to find themselves in pass-heavy game scripts every week, Brissett profiles as a viable starting fantasy quarterback. However, Arizona has a difficult matchup in Week 15 against the Houston Texans.

Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love had a highly efficient day in his team's Week 14 win over the Chicago Bears, completing 17 of 25 pass attempts for 234 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. The 27-year-old's 9.4 yards per pass attempt against Chicago was his best single-game mark since Week 8. Love is also on a touchdown-throwing tear, as he's now thrown for seven scores over the last two weeks. Across 13 games overall, Love has thrown for 3,028 yards, 22 touchdowns, and four picks. While Green Bay prefers to play a run-heavy offensive style, Love's ability to be efficient gives him a chance at solid fantasy production every week. He profiles as a borderline fantasy QB1 heading into a difficult Week 15 matchup on the road against the Denver Broncos.

Houston Texans running back
Nick Chubb (ribs) is questionable to return to his team's Week 14 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs due to a rib injury. Chubb recorded one carry for three yards before exiting the game. Chubb entered Week 14 with 469 rushing yards and three touchdowns across 12 games played in 2025. However, he has not recorded double-digit carries in any game since Week 9 as Texans rookie back
Woody Marks has taken over as the lead rusher in Houston. If Chubb is unable to return in Week 14, Marks will likely dominate backfield work for the remainder of the game against Kansas City.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback
Trevor Lawrence completed 17 of 30 pass attempts for 244 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions in his team's 36-19 Week 14 win over the Indianapolis Colts. The 26-year-old also rushed for 16 yards on 4 attempts. Lawrence entered Week 14 having thrown six interceptions over his last five games, but he was able to play clean football and lead his team to a win against Indianapolis. Across 13 games this season, Lawrence has now thrown for 2,880 yards, 18 touchdowns, and 11 picks. While he might not be considered a true dual-threat quarterback, Lawrence has been a threat with his legs this season, recording 251 rushing yards and five touchdowns on 61 attempts. He could have low-end fantasy QB1 appeal in Week 15 when the Jaguars take on the New York Jets.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back
Travis Etienne Jr. had a big day in his team's Week 14 win over the Indianapolis Colts, recording 74 rushing yards and two touchdowns on 20 carries. The 26-year-old also hauled in his lone target for an eight-yard reception. Etienne Jr. has now recorded at least 18 touches in six out of his last seven games played. Across 13 contests in 2025, he's logged 1,098 scrimmage yards and nine touchdowns on 227 touches. While the Jaguars have split work between Etienne Jr. and rookie running back
Bhayshul Tuten at times this season, Etienne Jr. out-touched Tuten 20 to two in a crucial division matchup against Indianapolis. Etienne Jr. has established himself as a must-start fantasy running back heading into his Week 15 matchup against the New York Jets.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback
Matthew Stafford completed 22 of his 31 pass attempts for 281 yards, three touchdowns, and zero turnovers during Sunday's Week 14 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Stafford bounced back from an ugly three-turnover game against the Panthers last Sunday and should remain under consideration for the NFL MVP award. The 37-year-old has 30 touchdowns over his last 10 games, benefitting tremendously from the superstar-caliber play of wide receivers
Puka Nacua and
Davante Adams. Stafford will continue to rank as a top-five fantasy quarterback heading into a Week 15 matchup against his old team, the Detroit Lions.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback
Aaron Rodgers completed 23 of 34 pass attempts for 284 yards and a touchdown in his team's crucial Week 14 win over the Baltimore Ravens. The 42-year-old also turned back the clock by recording his first rushing touchdown since the 2022 season. Making his second start since suffering multiple fractures in his left wrist, Rodgers appeared far more comfortable in Week 14 against Baltimore than he did in Pittsburgh's Week 13 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Across 12 games this season, Rodgers has now thrown for 2,370 yards, 20 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. He profiles as a mid-tier fantasy QB2 heading into Pittsburgh's Week 15 showdown with the Miami Dolphins.

December 7, 2025
Baltimore Ravens quarterback
Lamar Jackson had a mediocre day as a passer in his team's Week 14 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, completing 19 of 35 pass attempts for 219 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. However, Jackson recorded 43 rushing yards on seven attempts and scored his first rushing touchdown since Week 1. The 28-year-old missed four games in October due to a hamstring injury and hasn't quite been himself since his return, averaging under 20 rushing yards per game over his last five contests heading into Week 14. While Jackson's work through the air remained below his usual standard against Pittsburgh, fantasy managers can draw some hope from the work he did with his legs in Week 14. Even amidst his relative struggles, Jackson has explosive upside and remains a must-start fantasy quarterback heading into his Week 15 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson caught all four of his targets for 89 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 14 win over the Chicago Bears. Even with
Jayden Reed returning to the lineup, Watson continued to operate as the Packers' top receiver. He now has five touchdowns over the last four weeks, and he has at least four catches in each of those four games. The 26-year-old continues to perform quite well in this crowded receiver room, largely thanks to
Jordan Love's strong passing season. He has quietly ranked as the eighth-highest-scoring receiver in half-PPR leagues since making his season debut in Week 8. Watson ranks as a strong WR2 option heading into Week 15 against the Denver Broncos.
