Seattle Seahawks wide receiver
Jaxon Smith-Njigba continued his historic season in a 21-19 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, catching nine of his 12 targets for 105 yards. Smith-Njigba failed to surpass the 100-yard mark last week against the Cardinals as he didn't play much in the second half, but he has cleared it in four of his past five games and seven of 10 games overall this season. The 23-year-old managed to post a dominant line despite quarterback
Sam Darnold having his roughest game as a Seahawk with four interceptions. Smith-Njigba's floor for production is incredibly high, and the ceiling is also massive when Seattle plays in more high-scoring games, which we haven't seen many of this season. The superstar wideout has ascended to a new level this season and will rank as one of the best wide receivers in fantasy for Week 12 against the Titans.

Los Angeles Rams running back
Kyren Williams scored his fourth rushing touchdown in the past three games in their 21-19 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 11. Williams was efficient with 91 rushing yards on 12 carries to go with one reception (two targets) for five yards. The 25-year-old has had a standout season as a big piece of the Rams' high-powered offense and again ranks as one of the best backs in fantasy. Williams isn't known for his explosive rush ability, but he ripped off a few in this game, including his longest run of the season with a 34-yard gash in the first quarter. It was a tough matchup on paper against a Seattle defense that entered the day ranked third in yards per carry allowed (3.7), and the Rams didn't have their best offensive performance, but Williams still came through for fantasy managers.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver
Xavier Legette caught four of his eight targets for 83 yards and a touchdown in a 30-27 overtime win against the Atlanta Falcons. Legette bounced back with one of his best performances of the season after going catchless last week against the Saints. The 2024 first-round pick hasn't been very involved in recent weeks, with Carolina leaning more run-heavy and not having much pass volume, but finished second on the team in receiving in Week 11, with
Bryce Young throwing for a career high 448 yards on 45 attempts. The 24-year-old wideout will look to build on this performance and find week-to-week consistency to become fantasy relevant.

Detroit Lions running back
Jahmyr Gibbs struggled to find running room in Sunday night's 16-9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, handling 12 carries for 39 yards, but he was dynamic as a receiver with a team-high five catches (eight targets) for 107 yards. Gibbs has now topped 140 yards or more from scrimmage in three of the past four games and was one of the few bright spots in a tough offensive showing from the Lions. The 23-year-old posted his highest receiving total of the season and his most receptions in a game since Week 3. That could be a featured part of Detroit's offense moving forward, with
Sam LaPorta (back) placed on injured reserve earlier this week. Gibbs will again rank as one of the elite RBs in fantasy in Week 12 against the New York Giants.

Detroit Lions wide receiver
Jameson Williams recorded four receptions for 88 yards and a touchdown on seven targets in Sunday night's 16-9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Williams scored the Lions' only touchdown of the night on an explosive 40-yard catch and run in the second quarter in what was otherwise a tough offensive performance against the Eagles' stout defense. The 24-year-old wideout continued his strong run of production in recent games, now totaling 14 catches on 20 targets for 273 yards and three touchdowns over the past three weeks after their Week 8 bye, averaging 20.1 PPR points per game. With
Sam LaPorta (back) placed on injured reserve earlier this week, Williams will have a runway for a strong second half of the season after a disappointing first seven games.

New York Giants running back
Devin Singletary averaged only 2.8 yards per carry on the ground (44 yards) in the 27-20 loss to the visiting Green Bay Packers at MetLife Stadium on Sunday, but he scored two touchdowns and had a season-high 16 rushing attempts. It was a high-volume day for New York's rushing attack, as
Tyrone Tracy Jr. led the team with 19 carries and 88 rushing yards. Singletary's 16 rushing attempts doubled his previous high of eight, which he had in each of the last two games since
Cam Skattebo's season-ending ankle injury. The 28-year-old caught one of his three targets for three yards through the air. Singletary will remain involved going into a tough Week 12 matchup against the Detroit Lions, but he's the clear No. 2 behind Tracy and should be viewed as a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex in fantasy. His two TDs on Sunday were his first of the year, and he entered the day averaging a career-low 3.3 yards per tote.

It wasn't an amazing statistical day for Green Bay Packers quarterback
Jordan Love in the 27-20 victory in Week 11 over the New York Giants on Sunday, but he did manage to throw a touchdown pass for the first time since Week 8. Love finished the game going 13-for-24 passing for 174 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions while carrying the ball only twice for seven yards. The 27-year-old was sacked twice for a loss of 12 yards and also tossed a successful two-point conversion. He briefly left the contest due to a left-shoulder injury, but he was able to return and lead the Packers to their sixth win of the season. Love's TDs went to
Josh Whyle and
Christian Watson, who scored twice on the day. The fifth-year signal-caller has limited turnovers this year, but otherwise, he hasn't been anything special for fantasy managers. Going into a tough Week 12 matchup against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings (possibly without star RB
Josh Jacobs), Love will be a midrange QB2 in fantasy.

Seattle Seahawks running back
Kenneth Walker III got into the end zone for only the third time this year and the first time since Week 3 in the 21-19 loss to the division-rival Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium on Sunday. Walker led Seattle with 16 carries for 67 yards on the ground and a touchdown, adding three catches (three targets) for a season-high 44 yards in the passing game. In a game in which quarterback
Sam Darnold struggled and threw four interceptions, the 25-year-old Walker stabilized the Seahawks' offense and scored their only touchdown of the game. It was only the third time in 2025 that he has surpassed 100 scrimmage yards despite a healthy 4.5 yard-per-carry average. Walker has been very efficient this year with his touches, but more importantly, he's managed to stay healthy and hold off backfield mate
Zach Charbonnet. Keep him in your fantasy lineups as an RB2 with more upside next week in a juicy matchup against the Tennessee Titans.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver
Christian Watson broke out in his fourth game of the season in Sunday's 27-20 win on the road at MetLife Stadium against the New York Giants, catching four of his five targets for 46 yards and his first two touchdowns of the season. Watson didn't make his 2025 debut until Week 8 after tearing the ACL in his knee in the Week 18 regular-season finale last year. In his first three games, he caught eight of his 12 targets for 188 yards and no scores. The 26-year-old scored in the first and fourth quarters in the Week 11 win, with his second TD reception being a contested-catch grab with multiple receivers draped all over him in the end zone. Targets might be harder to come by when
Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) returns from Injured Reserve, but for now, Watson should remain a key contributor and big-play specialist in the Packers' offense. Watson will be in play as a WR4/flex with big-play upside in a Week 12 divisional clash against the Minnesota Vikings.

Buffalo Bills running back
James Cook wasn't very efficient on the ground in Sunday's 44-32 win over the visiting Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 11, but he still managed to go over 100 scrimmage yards while securing his first receiving touchdown of the year. Cook had 16 rushing attempts for 48 yards on the ground (3.0 yards per carry) while adding three catches on three targets for a season-high 66 yards through the air and his first receiving TD (eighth total in 2025). The 26-year-old had a tough time finding space to run on Sunday against a stout Buccaneers defensive front, but he salvaged his day for fantasy managers by contributing as a pass-catcher, finishing as Buffalo's second leading receiver. Cook's TD came on a 25-yard reception. He's a must-start in all fantasy formats, but Cook might need more contributions as a pass-catcher again in Week 12 in a tough matchup on the ground against the Houston Texans on Thursday Night Football.

In his first game since Week 4, San Francisco 49ers quarterback
Brock Purdy completed 19 of 26 pass attempts for 200 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions in his team's 41-22 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Purdy missed six games due to a toe injury, but he appears to be regaining his health at the perfect time for San Francisco. Across three starts in 2025, Purdy has now thrown for 786 yards, seven touchdowns, and four interceptions. In addition to Purdy, the 49ers also got wide receiver
Ricky Pearsall back from a knee injury that has sidelined him from Week 4. The return of both players helped San Francisco put up a season-high 41 points against Arizona. Purdy profiles as a low-end starting quarterback option in single-QB fantasy leagues and a must-start quarterback in two-QB formats heading into a Week 12 matchup against the Carolina Panthers.

Kansas City Chiefs tight end
Travis Kelce was the focal point of his team's passing offense in their 22-19 Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos. Kelce was targeted a team-high 13 times, recording nine catches for 91 yards and a touchdown. The 36-year-old has now recorded 50 receptions for 631 yards and four scores on 66 targets across 10 games so far this season. Kelce has played some of his best football of late, recording 19 catches for 256 yards and two touchdowns on 26 targets over his last three games. Even with star wideout
Rashee Rice back in the lineup after missing the first six games of 2025 due to suspension, Kelce has still been a priority target-earner for Chiefs quarterback
Patrick Mahomes. Kelce profiles as a must-start fantasy tight end heading into a Week 12 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

Baltimore Ravens running back
Derrick Henry broke his two-game touchdown drought in his team's Week 11 win over the Cleveland Browns. Henry rushed for 103 yards and a score on 18 carries and added two catches for 19 yards on two targets. The 31-year-old has now recorded 807 rushing yards and seven touchdowns across 10 games so far this season. In the three games since Ravens quarterback
Lamar Jackson returned from the hamstring injury that sidelined him for over a month, Henry is averaging 99 rushing yards per game. With Baltimore getting back to its winning ways and the offense finding itself in more favorable game scripts, Henry looks to be back to his old self. He profiles as a must-start fantasy running back heading into a Week 12 matchup against the New York Jets.

The Cleveland Browns defense played well in a 23-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11. Cleveland's only touchdown of the game came on a Devin Bush 23-yard pick-six in the second quarter. The Browns also added five sacks and forced two more turnovers in addition to the pick-six, but it wasn't enough to bring home the win against the division-rival Ravens. The team also wasted an elite performance from Myles Garrett, who notched four of the team's five sacks in the contest, giving him 15 on the season. The Browns will be a high-end fantasy D/ST in Week 12's road matchup against a struggling Las Vegas Raiders offense.

Cleveland Browns tight end
David Njoku continued his recent quiet stretch in a 23-16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11. Njoku finished the game with just one catch for seven yards on two targets. The veteran tight end has only caught three passes for 28 yards and one touchdown over his past two games as the Browns have not been looking his way frequently when they drop back to pass. Extremely hard to trust as a fantasy starter going forward, Njoku will hope to get his season jump-started in Week 12 on the road against the Las Vegas Raiders.
