New York Jets tight end
Mason Taylor has struggled to make an impact in recent weeks and is trending down ahead of a home matchup with the Atlanta Falcons in Week 13. Taylor began the season seemingly on the rise as a highly targeted asset in New York's offense. However, even wide receiver
Garrett Wilson's (knee) extended absence hasn't been enough for the rookie to crack the startable options at his position. Wilson may be out with a knee injury, but new teammates
Adonai Mitchell and
John Metchie III have immediately sucked up a sizable target share as the Jets' attack piles up more competent weapons. Taylor profiles to eventually be a reliable fantasy tight end, but the path to that outcome in 2025 is much more narrow at this time than it was earlier in the campaign. The LSU product is RotoBaller's PPR TE26 for Week 13's clash.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end
Darnell Washington has seen a slight uptick in playing time over the past two weeks, playing 69.3% of offensive snaps and recording six receptions on seven targets for 89 yards. Up until that point, Washington was playing 56.9% of snaps and had 14 receptions for 142 yards on 21 targets in nine games. The 24-year-old tight end is an outstanding blocker who has also flashed incredible ball-in-hand ability as a receiver, consistently making defenders look silly when trying to tackle him. Washington has an elite 0.35 missed tackles forced per reception this season, best among all tight ends and tied for second among wide receivers with at least 20 targets this season, per Fantasy Points Data Suite. He doesn't see a ton of targets as the No. 2 tight end option behind
Pat Freiermuth, but he has some appeal in deeper leagues in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills with
Aaron Rodgers (wrist) returning.

New York Jets wide receiver
John Metchie III has garnered an increased role in the team's offense and will look to keep it rolling against the Atlanta Falcons at home in Week 13. Sunday's clash with Atlanta will be the 25-year-old's fourth appearance as a Jet, and third as a starter, accruing greater than 80% of snaps in the previous two contests. Over that time, Metchie III led the team in receiving yards during their loss to New England (45), and posted the most receptions of any Jets' pass-catcher in Week 12 (six). If the offensive attack can remain somewhat competent with quarterback
Tyrod Taylor under center, there's hope that Metchie III might boast some decent PPR appeal moving forward. For now, he's a low-end flex play in deep leagues, and, officially, RotoBaller's PPR WR52 for Sunday's meeting with Atlanta.

New York Jets running back
Breece Hall found little room to run against the Ravens in Week 12, although it was inspiring to see him be more involved in the passing game. Hall reeled in all four of his targets for 75 yards - his most looks and receptions in a game since Week 5, and his most receiving yards in a contest all season. Hopefully, the switch to quarterback
Tyrod Taylor will produce more outcomes like this over the campaign's final stretch, boosting the fourth-year pro's weekly floor. For Week 13, at least, Hall will be afforded a far more exploitable rush defense in the visiting Atlanta Falcons. On the season, Atlanta has been a favorable matchup for RBs, yielding the fourth-most fantasy points per outing (24.76) and the seventh-most rush yards per game (133.1) to the position. If the 24-year-old can retain his elevated role in the pass attack, he'll be in store for a productive afternoon. Hall is RotoBaller's PPR RB15 ahead of Week 13.

New York Jets quarterback
Tyrod Taylor performed well in his second start of the season last weekend and will try to build off of it against a fickle Atlanta Falcons defense this Sunday. The veteran wasn't exactly a fantasy-viable option in Week 12, although New York's offense encouragingly showed a bit of rhythm for at least one game. Atlanta has been formidable at times this season, affording opposing QBs the eleventh-fewest fantasy points per outing (15.41). Furthermore, their 190.4 passing yards per game allowed is the eighth-best mark in the league. While a porous rush defense may contribute to the overall numbers, it doesn't change Taylor's status as a risky play, making him only a low-ceiling streaming option in superflex/2QB formats. The 36-year-old is RotoBaller's QB26 in Week 13's ranks.

Washington Commanders tight end
Ben Sinnott (ankle) heads into Sunday night's matchup against the Denver Broncos without an injury designation after missing Week 11 due to an ankle injury. Sinnott hasn't played a big role as a receiver for Washington this season as the third tight end behind
Zach Ertz and
John Bates, but he could see more opportunities down the stretch with the state of the Commanders' season. The 2024 second-round pick caught his first touchdown of the season the last time he played in Week 10 versus the Detroit Lions. For the season, the 23-year-old has played 28.5% of the snaps on offense with just three receptions (three targets) for 33 yards and a touchdown. Sinnott has shown promise as a blocker, but hasn't flashed much as a receiver yet. He has high-end athletic traits, but hasn't seen many opportunities with Ertz holding down the pass-catching role. Sinnott is still a solid stash in dynasty leagues and will be a player to watch down the stretch.

Buffalo Bills running back
Ty Johnson does not boast fantasy appeal in Week 13 despite operating as the primary handcuff to backfield mate
James Cook. The 28-year-old has actually seen his role in the passing game remain steady since Week 9, collecting at least two targets and receptions over the four-game sample. Still, he's failed to carry the ball more than twice in any game over that stretch, and has done so just twice on the season as a whole, with Cook handily leading the backfield. Furthermore, quarterback
Josh Allen has more than tripled Johnson's carry total (70-21), leaving little volume left to go around on the ground. Johnson is worthy of a stash in the deepest of PPR formats for his stable work in the receiving game, but his floor is low, and the ceiling is nearly nonexistent. He's RotoBaller's PPR RB64 ahead of Week 13.

Miami Dolphins running back
Jaylen Wright slid back down the team's backfield hierarchy in Week 11's 16-13 win against the Washington Commanders, handling one tote for a gain of four yards. Wright picked up a decent amount of carries (five) in the game prior, with teammate
Ollie Gordon II battling an ankle issue. However, he was back to third in the pecking order, with the latter injury-free, and, for the most part, has played a tertiary role in Miami's attack while dealing with injuries of his own in 2025. With Gordon II working as the primary change-of-pace option, and
De'Von Achane dominating touches at the position, Wright can be left to waiver-wire fodder in redraft leagues for the time being.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back
Kaleb Johnson won't be on the fantasy radar for this weekend's clash with the visiting Buffalo Bills. The former third-round pick has had a quiet rookie season, amassing 58 yards on 22 carries across seven appearances. At the beginning of the campaign, Johnson appeared to be on his way to playing a sizable snap share in a backfield ripe for the taking. That didn't come to fruition, though, as teammates
Jaylen Warren and
Kenneth Gainwell have formed a formidable duo for the Steelers. Furthermore, opportunities in Pittsburgh are hard to come by, considering the team boasts the third-slowest pace of play (56.7 plays per game). As it stands, the University of Iowa alum is a talented athlete, but his path to playing time -- at least in 2025 -- is less clear than we'd like for fantasy. Either way, he's still a nice stash in dynasty leagues.

In Week 12, Carolina Panthers tight end
Tommy Tremble failed to catch his only target and did not score a single fantasy point for the fourth time in the last five games. Tremble was mainly utilized as a blocker in this game and played on 48% of snaps. In Week 13, Carolina will face the Los Angeles Rams, who rank 19th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to the TE position. Although this is a favorable matchup for TEs, Tremble is not worthy of any fantasy consideration, even in TE-premium formats. Tremble has only been targeted at least twice in only three games this year.

Carolina Panthers tight end
Ja'Tavion Sanders was a complete afterthought in the Panthers' passing game in Week 12. The Carolina TE caught his only target, which resulted in six yards. For the first time since Week 8, Sanders played the most snaps of all Panthers TEs at 57%. In nine games played this year, Sanders has averaged 4.7 PPR Points Per Game. Week 13 brings a decent matchup for Sanders against the Los Angeles Rams, who rank 19th in the league in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to TEs. However, Sanders will not be able to take advantage of the draw. In 25 games played in two seasons in his NFL career, Sanders has caught one single TD pass, a prime stat that signifies why he is not on the fantasy radar for Week 13.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver
Xavier Legette finished Week 12 with 22 yards on three receptions and totaled 5.2 PPR points. This marked the fourth time in the last five games that Legette registered fewer than 10 PPR points. Legette has a middling matchup this week as the Panthers will take on the Rams. Los Angeles ranks 16th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to WRs. Legette's volume has been inconsistent this season, as he has been targeted 5+ times in only three games since Week 5. Considering his mediocre fantasy output and variable volume, fantasy players should not consider Legette for Week 13.

November 28, 2025
Carolina Panthers wide receiver
Jalen Coker had three receptions for 32 yards and finished with 6.2 PPR points in Week 12. Carolina will face the LA Rams in Week 13. They rank 16th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to the WR position this season. Despite drawing a middling matchup for his position, Coker has not delivered enough production to be on fantasy rosters right now. He has yet to be targeted more than four times in a single game this season. Through six games played, Coker has not caught a single TD pass or reached 55 receiving yards. Fantasy players won't be considering him for lineups this late in their regular season.

Carolina Panthers rookie first-round wide receiver
Tetairoa McMillan posted underwhelming numbers in Week 12 against the 49ers. The rookie WR had two receptions for 35 yards and one touchdown that salvaged his fantasy day. It was only the third time this year that McMillan totaled less than 40 yards in a single game. The Panthers take on the Los Angeles Rams in Week 13. The Rams' defense held Buccaneers WR
Emeka Egbuka to three catches for 32 yards last week and has only given up three TDs to WRs since Week 5. McMillan has displayed a respectable statistical floor throughout the season, so he should remain in lineups for Week 13.
Bryce Young may be able to elevate McMillan's fantasy totals in catch-up mode. Carolina's top WR has been targeted by Young at least six times in the last five games.

Green Bay Packers tight end
Luke Musgrave gained 23 yards on his lone reception in Thursday's 31-24 win over their division-rival Detroit Lions. Musgrave was targeted just once on Thanksgiving and has now recorded exactly one reception in three straight outings. It was thought that the third-year pro would assume Green Bay's TE1 duties after teammate
Tucker Kraft (knee) went down for the season with a knee injury. However, that hasn't been the case, as TE
John FitzPatrick had out-snapped Musgrave in the previous two games before Week 13's win. Moreover,
Jordan Love and the offense have leaned even less on the passing game recently, averaging just 25 pass attempts over the last three contests. Despite a decent amount of playing time, Musgrave can be safely avoided for fantasy purposes until the situation around him shifts.
