Ashton Jeanty Saves His Week 12 Production with Heavy Pass-Game Involvement
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty had an underwhelming day on the ground in his team's Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns, recording just 50 rushing yards on 17 carries. However, the 21-year-old saved his fantasy production with a monster day as a receiver, recording eight catches for 58 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. With the Raiders' depleted offensive line struggling to open up holes in the ground game, receiving work has become an increasingly important part of Jeanty's repertoire in recent weeks. Across his last four games, Jeanty has hauled in 22 receptions for 135 yards and two touchdowns on 26 targets. He's been targeted eight times in each of the last two weeks. The Raiders' overall inability to consistently move the ball limits Jeanty's ceiling, but he still profiles as a high-volume fantasy RB2 heading into a Week 13 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers.

A.J. Brown Delivers Vintage Performance in Week 12
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown delivered a vintage performance in his team's 24-21 Week 12 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, hauling in eight receptions for 110 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. The 28-year-old has spent most of the 2025 season publicly agitated by his role in Philadelphia's underwhelming pass game. However, Brown has now seen double-digit targets in each of the last two weeks. Across 10 games for the season, he's recorded 46 catches for 567 yards and four touchdowns on 75 targets. Brown's increased involvement in recent games could be a sign that he is getting back on the same page with Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts. While Brown hasn't provided the consistent production fantasy managers were hoping for before the start of the season, he remains a starting fantasy wide receiver heading into a Week 13 matchup against the Chicago Bears.

Browns Decline to Name Starting QB for Week 13 Following Week 12 Win
Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski declined to name a starting quarterback for his team's Week 13 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers following their win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 12, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. With quarterback Dillon Gabriel (concussion) sidelined by a concussion, fellow rookie QB Shedeur Sanders made the first start of his NFL career against Las Vegas. The 23-year-old completed 11 of 20 pass attempts for 207 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. Across eight games (six starts) before getting injured, Gabriel had completed 59.2% of his pass attempts for 937 yards, seven touchdowns, and two interceptions. While Sanders didn't exactly light up the stat sheet against Las Vegas, it may be hard for Stefanski to go back to Gabriel after his team secured a rare win in Week 12. Neither Gabriel nor Sanders profiles as a fantasy-relevant quarterback in Week 13.

Chiefs Sign Dameon Pierce to Practice Squad
The Kansas City Chiefs are signing former Houston Texans running back Dameon Pierce to their practice squad, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. He was recently cut loose by the Texans. Once a promising, young running back, Pierce endured a fall from grace and eventually became the odd man out in Houston's backfield. He went from having over 1,100 yards and five touchdowns as a rookie in 2022 to just 26 yards on 10 carries through four games this year. Although he's no longer an impact name in the NFL or fantasy football, the Chiefs hope they can tap into some of his potential, starting by getting him reps on the practice squad. Kansas City needed running back depth with Isiah Pacheco (knee) sidelined and Elijah Mitchell (healthy scratch) losing relevance. It's unlikely that Pierce will have any sort of short-term fantasy value in Kansas City, but the fresh start is promising nonetheless.

Travis Etienne Jr. Delivers Another Terrific Outing on Sunday
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Travis Etienne Jr. rushed for 86 yards on 15 carries during Sunday's Week 12 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. He also caught three of his four targets for 30 receiving yards and a touchdown. After a bit of a lull earlier in the season, Etienne has bounced back as a highly effective RB1 in fantasy football ever since his bye week. In four games since the bye, he has 301 rushing yards, 80 receiving yards, and four touchdowns while ranking as the overall RB6 in PPR leagues during that span. Unlike last week, Etienne was able to fend off a strong game from backfield-mate Bhayshul Tuten this Sunday. It appears as though Etienne still has a firm grasp on the lead-back role in Jacksonville, keeping him in the top-10 range for next week's matchup against a struggling Tennessee Titans run defense.

Dak Prescott Totals Three Touchdowns in Comeback Win on Sunday
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott completed 23 of 36 pass attempts for 354 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. He also had nine rushing yards and one rushing touchdown. The Cowboys were held scoreless until the final seconds of the first half, when Dallas finally started to chip into its 21-0 deficit. From there, Prescott led three touchdown drives and ultimately got the Cowboys in position to kick a game-winning field goal in overtime. The 32-year-old has seven total touchdowns over his last two games and ranks as the overall QB5 in fantasy scoring so far. He should continue to be started in all leagues ahead of an intriguing showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs on Thanksgiving Day in Week 13.

George Pickens at the Center of Cowboys Offense Once Again
Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens caught all nine of his targets for 146 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. The 24-year-old has drastically exceeded expectations in his first season with Dallas; not only does he have higher stats than superstar teammate CeeDee Lamb, but he's also been more productive than nearly every receiver in the league. He currently ranks as the overall WR3 in PPR leagues this season, and he shows no signs of slowing down. Pickens' next chance of producing will come in Week 13 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Thanksgiving. He continues to be a must-start WR1 in all fantasy leagues despite Kansas City allowing the second-fewest points to wide receivers this year.

Alvin Kamara Getting an MRI on His Knee
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee) will undergo an MRI as the team continues to evaluate his status, according to Nick Underhill of New Orleans Football. Kamara exited during the first half of Sunday's loss against the Atlanta Falcons and was quickly ruled out. He finished the game with just five touches and 15 scrimmage yards. New Orleans can't exactly afford another long-term running back injury, as Kendre Miller (knee) is already on injured reserve. If Kamara misses extended time, the Saints will be forced to proceed with rookie Devin Neal as their lead back. Neal has intriguing draft capital as a sixth-round pick, but he had just 17 total touches prior to this week. Kamara will have seven days to get healthy before the Saints return to action against the Miami Dolphins next Sunday.

Jalen Hurts Totals Three Touchdowns as Eagles' Leading Rusher
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 27 of his 39 pass attempts for 289 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 12 loss against the Dallas Cowboys. He also had seven rushing attempts for a team-high 33 rushing yards, plus two additional touchdowns on the ground. Although the Eagles lost, fantasy managers will chalk this up to a productive game for the 27-year-old, especially since he hadn't scored multiple touchdowns in a single game since Week 8. In addition to his touchdown total and rushing yardage, it was very encouraging to see Hurts complete nearly 70% of his passes for almost 300 yards. He should be trusted as a strong QB1 option heading into Week 13 against the Chicago Bears.

Chris Godwin Officially Active for Sunday Night Football in Week 12
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (fibula) is officially active for Sunday Night Football against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 12. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity this past Friday. Godwin has appeared in just two games this season, registering three catches for 26 yards in each of them. His latest absence spanned five games, but he's returning at a perfect time for the Bucs, who'll need all the help they can get against a strong Rams defense. Los Angeles has allowed the fourth-fewest touchdowns and 12th-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. Godwin ranks as an RB3/flex in his role behind Emeka Egbuka.

Sam Darnold Cleans Up His Mistakes Against Titans
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold completed 16 of his 26 pass attempts for 244 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Tennessee Titans. Darnold had seven turnovers over his last two games coming into this week, so it was refreshing to see him play clean, turnover-free football, albeit in a softer matchup against a subpar Titans defense. The veteran quarterback had his best fantasy performance since Week 9 and will remain in the mix as a high-end QB2 for Week 13 against the Minnesota Vikings in an exciting revenge game scenario. With that being said, Seattle could opt to go run-heavy against the Vikings, taking the ball out of Darnold's hands from time to time. Minnesota surrendered 146 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns to the Packers in Week 12, whereas Jordan Love only threw for 139 yards and no scores.

Kareem Hunt Totals 33 Touches in Productive Outing Sunday
Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt had 33 carries for 104 rushing yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Indianapolis Colts. He also caught all three of his targets for an additional 26 receiving yards. The veteran running back hadn't handled more than 13 carries or 14 touches in a single game this season, so it was a bit surprising to see him finish with more than double both of those totals. The increased volume led to inflated counting stats, so while his 3.5 yards per carry aren't very intriguing, he still racked up enough yardage to produce as a top-12 running back in fantasy football this week. Isiah Pacheco (knee) could return next week and complicate the backfield dynamic, but Hunt should still be able to carve out a role for himself with standalone value as an RB3/flex.

Chimere Dike Scores Long Special Teams Touchdown in Week 12
Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Chimere Dike caught five of his seven targets for 44 yards and one receiving touchdown during Sunday's Week 12 loss against the Seattle Seahawks. He also had a 90-yard punt return touchdown. Dike's two touchdowns gave him a nice boost in fantasy football, rewarding managers who started him with the expectation that he'd perform well amidst injuries to Calvin Ridley (leg) and Elic Ayomanor (hamstring). The rookie will remain the top receiving option even after Ayomanor returns to action. He's a solid WR2 in an anticipated negative game script situation against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 13.

DJ Moore Scores Twice in Narrow Win at Home
Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore caught five of his seven targets for 64 yards and two touchdowns during Sunday's Week 12 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. After two very underwhelming performances, Moore bounced back by tying his season-high in catches while scoring his second and third touchdowns of the season. Neither Moore nor teammate Rome Odunze has been consistent this season, but the latter has typically been more productive, so Sunday's performance certainly bucked a trend within the Bears' offense. The veteran receiver isn't guaranteed to have fantasy relevance every week going forward, but Week 12 showed that he's still capable of producing at an elite level. Moore is back in the high-end WR3 tier for Week 13 against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Caleb Williams Scores Three Times in Victory
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams gave fantasy managers a show during Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. It was mostly good for Williams, but he did have some bad moments as well. The worst of the day was when Williams fumbled in the end zone which led to a Steelers touchdown. Outside of that, Williams was mostly solid as he completed 19-of-35 passing attempts for 239 yards and three touchdowns in the win. He didn't throw any interceptions and his lone turnover was that fumble in the first half. There have been some bad games, but fantasy managers have mostly been able to trust Williams on a weekly basis. He'll head into a tough matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles next week. Fantasy managers should trust him as a QB2 for that one.
