Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams has continued to lead his team to victory despite less-than-ideal fantasy numbers. In Week 13, Williams completed just 47% of his passes for 154 yards and added a touchdown and an interception, but a strong run game and defensive play helped the Bears get their ninth win in their last ten games. Despite his inconsistent production, the second-year quarterback is averaging 18.9 fantasy points per game, which places him inside the top 10 at his position. His Week 14 matchup against the Green Bay Packers will be his toughest one yet, as they have allowed just the sixth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Not only that, top target Rome Odunze (foot) has been ruled out, and with how well the Bears have been running the ball, Williams could be in line for another low-volume outing in Week 14. Expectations should be lower for the breakout quarterback, who will need to utilize his rushing skillset to be productive against this tough Packers' defense.--Nathan Harvey

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has carved out a fantasy-relevant role lately, and he should remain involved during Sunday's Week 14 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. Offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur recently said the Rams found that an increased workload for Corum allowed Kyren Williams to remain fresh deep into the season. This trend should continue as Los Angeles aims to keep Williams healthy and productive ahead of the playoffs. As a result, we can expect Corum to maintain his trend of handling roughly one-third of the offensive snaps and 7-10 touches per game. He was particularly effective last Sunday against the Carolina Panthers, carrying the ball seven times for 81 yards and one touchdown. However, his touchdown came in a brief period where Williams was being evaluated for an injury. We expect that the goal-line role will remain with Williams as long as he stays healthy. Furthermore, Corum isn't much of a receiving threat, catching just five passes for 10 receiving yards this year. Therefore, fantasy managers will need him to deliver high efficiency on the ground. He's a riskier play for Week 14, but he should still benefit from a matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, who have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. He ranks as the overall RB33 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings for this week, which means managers in 12-team leagues can feel comfortable deploying him as an RB3 or flex.--Andersen Pickard

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams remains the primary option out of the team's backfield, but his floor has declined with the emergence of Blake Corum. Offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur recently noted that allowing Corum to spell Williams more often has allowed the latter running back to stay fresh over the course of the whole season, and that trend should continue as the playoffs get closer. Managers shouldn't be surprised to see Williams finish with around 15 touches per game while Corum handles roughly seven to 10. With that said, Williams does remain a low-end RB1 in fantasy football, largely due to his ability to catch passes and score touchdowns. He has 24 receptions and 10 trips to the end zone so far in 2025. That bodes well for his outlook in Week 14 against the Arizona Cardinals, who have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points and second-most receiving touchdowns to opposing running backs in 2025. While Williams is no longer the high-end RB1 that managers consistently depended on when he was handling north of 20 carries per game, he's still a top-12 fantasy running back for the rest of the season. Specifically, he ranks as the overall RB10 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings for Week 14.--Andersen Pickard

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is looking to bounce back after playing his worst game of the season last Sunday against the Carolina Panthers. In the Rams' loss to the Panthers, Stafford broke an eight-game turnover-free streak as he was intercepted twice and also lost a fumble. This was his first multi-turnover game of the year, as well as his first three-turnover performance since Week 1 of the 2022 season. Needless to say, Week 13 was an uncharacteristic showing for Stafford, who had previously been neck-and-neck with Drake Maye in the race for MVP. Despite the blemish, the 37-year-old still ranks as the overall QB6 in fantasy scoring this year. He should return to top-five form against the Arizona Cardinals, who have allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks in 2025 but have also surrendered the ninth-most total scoring to opposing offenses. Stafford ranks as the overall QB3 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings and should be started in all leagues.--Andersen Pickard

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson continues to produce despite his team losing six of the last seven games, as he's currently the fourth-ranked running back in PPR formats after adding five receptions for 51 yards to his 142-yard rushing total in last week's 27-24 loss to the Jets. The 23-year-old's seven targets were an encouraging development with Kirk Cousins under center after totaling just five in Cousins' previous two starts. Week 14 brings a home matchup with the Seahawks, a defense that has yielded the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs, but that has also allowed the second-most receptions per game (5.7) and fourth-most receiving yards per game (39.7) to opposing backs. Whether the Falcons are playing from behind or with a lead, Robinson should be heavily involved regardless and is once again a rock-solid RB1 for Sunday's contest.--Jarod Rupp

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud got a big win over the Colts in his return from a concussion last week, and he'll be in another huge matchup this week against the tough Chiefs' defense on Sunday Night Football. Stroud completed 22 of 35 passes for 276 yards with no touchdowns and one interception in last week's win, but looked very sharp overall, even though his fantasy numbers weren't huge. One encouraging sign is that he did have 35 pass attempts, continuing the team's recent trend of throwing the ball more during their current winning streak. If that trend continues again this week, Stroud has good upside if he can convert touchdowns. He's the No. 21 QB in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, making him a low-end QB2 that does bring potential upside despite his tough primetime matchup.--Zach Thompson

Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb has settled in as a change-of-pace option in the Texans' backfield, playing behind rookie Woody Marks, but he still does get enough work to be on the radar in very deep formats. He had his third touchdown of the season in last week's win over the Colts, finishing with nine carries for 34 rushing yards to go with his score. He is no longer the big-play threat or the workhorse that he was earlier in his career, but he is still getting about a third of the snaps in Houston's backfield timeshare. Chubb is the No. 45 RB in RotoBaller's rankings this week as the Texans face the tough Chiefs' run defense on Sunday Night Football. In most standard-sized leagues, there are better options available, but in very deep leagues, he can be a touchdown-reliant flex play.--Zach Thompson

Houston Texans running back Woody Marks has taken over most of the work in the backfield for the Texans, so he'll be a solid flex play on Sunday Night Football in Kansas City. Marks played 54% of snaps last week and led the team with 64 rushing yards on 19 carries against the Colts. The rookie from USC added a three-yard catch on his only target of the day, but Nick Chubb got the running back touchdown, and wide receiver Nico Collins also ran in a score. Marks missed practice early in the week with a foot injury but was able to get in a full session on Friday and avoid an injury designation. He hasn't been able to convert his workload to huge yardage or touchdowns, but he's getting enough volume to be a low-end RB2 or high-end flex option this week, even in a tough matchup against the Chiefs. Marks is the No. 23 RB in RotoBaller's rankings for this week, as he and the Texans look to claim a fifth straight victory.--Zach Thompson

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk still played about half of the team's snaps last week against the Colts, but did not have a catch or a target in the team's 20-16 victory. He'll be in a tough matchup this week on Sunday Night Football against the Chiefs, making him an option best left on the bench or waiver wire. The veteran slot receiver did have five catches for 54 yards and a touchdown in Week 12 against the Bills, so he still does have some potential, but he's extremely high-risk since he's playing behind Nico Collins, rookie Jayden Higgins, and Xavier Hutchinson, and also splitting time with rookie Jaylin Noel, who has been logging about 20 snaps per game. Kirk is the No. 75 WR in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, so he isn't a strong start this week.--Zach Thompson

Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins is having a strong second half to his rookie season, and he has emerged as enough of a threat to be on the radar in deep leagues. The early second-round pick has emerged as the team's second receiver behind Nico Collins in the last few weeks and has at least four catches in each of his four games during the team's current winning streak. In those four games, Higgins has totaled 18 catches on 28 targets for 200 yards and two touchdowns. He had a personal-best 65 receiving yards last week against the Colts and caught all five of his targets from returning QB C.J. Stroud. He should remain involved enough to be a fringe flex play this week against the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. It won't be an easy matchup, but if the Texans keep throwing the ball so much, the rookie has a solid chance to continue his production. He's the WR37 in RotoBaller's rankings for Week 14, so he is still best left on the bench in standard-sized leagues.--Zach Thompson

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins should continue to get plenty of targets as his team faces an important matchup in Week 14 against the Chiefs, as both teams try to stay in the playoff race heading into the final few weeks of the regular season. Collins has drawn at least 10 targets in five of his last six games and is up to 95 targets in 11 games this season. He has converted those looks into 57 catches for 795 yards and four touchdowns on the year, and last week, he finished with five catches for 98 yards against the Colts, while adding the first rushing touchdown of his career. Collins is one of the top options in the Texans' passing game, which has been effectively high-volume in the past few weeks. He remains a top-10 option with good upside even in a tough matchup against the Chiefs, who have been a slightly below-average matchup for receivers this season. In RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, Collins is the No. 8 wide receiver, making him still a top receiver in most leagues and a strong start in almost all formats this week.--Zach Thompson

Houston Texans tight end Cade Stover had a new role in Week 13, serving as the team's short-yardage specialist and taking four carries for three yards in addition to catching both of his targets for 16 yards as the team's second tight end. Stover's four carries came on 3rd- or 4th-and-one situations, and he converted two of the four chances for first downs. Three of the carries came in the red zone, and he has the potential to score a short-yardage touchdown in the package if the opportunity arises in the coming weeks. Stover has played three games this season and has six catches for 38 yards, so he's a little involved in the passing game as well. The second-year tight end from Ohio State is only the No. 48 TE in RotoBaller's rankings in Week 14 against the Chiefs, so he can be left on the waiver wire in most formats, but it is interesting that he's getting short-yardage work since it does raise his potential production.--Zach Thompson

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz is a solid fill-in or streaming play when he visits the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football if you're searching for a solution at the position this week. Schultz hasn't been an elite option this year, but he has posted very steady numbers, especially in PPR leagues. The eighth-year veteran caught seven of his eight targets for 55 yards in Week 13 against the Colts and has at least six catches in four of his last five games. He is up to 59 catches for 552 yards and one touchdown on the season, and he has been a steady contributor of targets and catches this year, even though his yardage totals have been fairly mediocre. Schultz is the No. 15 TE in RotoBaller's rankings for Week 14, making him a fringe starting option this week against the Chiefs, who have been solid against TE this season.--Zach Thompson

The Houston Texans D/ST will face a tough matchup in Week 14 as they travel to Kansas City to face Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs. They are still a strong starting option, although they aren't in an elite matchup to deliver a big total. Last week, the Texans held the Colts to 16 points but had a quiet day with just one sack and no takeaways. The previous week, they dominated the Bills in primetime, racking up eight sacks and three takeaways in one of their best games of the season. The Texans' elite pass rush has totaled 34 sacks in 12 games this season, while the team has 19 takeaways and a pair of defensive touchdowns. Houston is making a playoff push after winning four straight, and the defense has been leading the way in its recent surge. The Chiefs have been a tough matchup for DST, though, so even though they have been excellent, they're only the No. 7 DST in RotoBaller's rankings this week.--Zach Thompson

Houston Texans kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn and the Texans have a huge game this week against the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. Fairbairn made two field goals and two extra points in his team's win over the Colts, which extended his streak to seven straight games with multiple field-goal makes. In his 10 games this season, Fairbairn has converted 27 of his 30 field-goal tries and all 16 of his extra-point attempts. He has gone 5-for-8 from 50 yards or longer, and he brings good upside even though he'll be kicking outside at Arrowhead Stadium this week. Fairbairn is the No. 8 kicker in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings, so he's a solid start in most leagues.--Zach Thompson
