Tennessee Titans running back
Tyjae Spears remains firmly on the fantasy radar as an RB3/flex option in full-PPR leagues ahead of Sunday's Week 15 contest against the San Francisco 49ers. Spears lost key volume to
Tony Pollard (25 carries, 161 yards, two touchdowns) last week, but he still maintained a sizable role on passing downs. He has at least three targets in all eight of his games this season, and he's averaging an impressive 4.3 catches per game over the last four weeks. Spears' impressive pass-catching volume has allowed him to rank as the overall RB34 in fantasy points per game since Week 6 (minimum four games played). This week, he takes on a 49ers defense that has struggled against pass-catching backs. Specifically, the Niners have allowed the most catches, eighth-most receiving yards, and eighth-most receiving touchdowns to opposing running backs in 2025. While Pollard has generated most of the buzz after last week's big game, Spears should be the name to get excited about in this backfield, given how often pass-catching backs excel against this 49ers run defense. Spears should be viewed as a strong RB3/flex option in Week 15.

Baltimore Ravens running back
Derrick Henry continues to boast RB1 potential heading into the Week 15 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite finishing as the RB20 in half-PPR leagues against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14, Henry has a bounce back opportunity versus a weaker run defense. In Week 13 against the Bengals, Henry finished with 10 carries for 60 yards and a touchdown to go along with one reception for 44 yards. He could have been used even more in that matchup, and the Ravens' coaching staff took some heat for their decision to not give him the ball more often. The Bengals still rank last against opposing running backs and the Ravens are fighting for their playoff lives, so Henry still carries RB1 value in this game.

The Chicago Bears are "optimistic" that wide receiver
Rome Odunze (foot) will play in Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Cleveland Browns, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com. Odunze is currently listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. The 23-year-old is working his way back from a one-game absence. He has been a boom-or-bust receiver this year, scoring at least 18 fantasy points (full-PPR) in two of his last eight games, and fewer than 6.5 points in the remaining six of his last eight. Despite the inconsistent production, Odunze has been able to rank as the overall WR29 in fantasy scoring this year. He has been heavily involved, catching 44 of his 90 targets for 661 yards and six touchdowns. Windy conditions and temperatures in the single digits could have an impact on Odunze's fantasy value this week, but his upside as a big-play threat in the Bears'
Caleb Williams-led offense keeps him on the fantasy radar. As it stands, he's a solid WR3/flex play this week. However, managers must accept that he has a lower floor.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback
Lamar Jackson finally gave fantasy managers a bit of a bounce back against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14. He finished as the QB6 after failing to finish any better than the QB14 in each of the four weeks before that. Jackson even had a rushing touchdown last week, which was his first score on the ground since Week 1. In Week 15, he'll take on the Cincinnati Bengals again, after a huge disappointment against them in Week 13. The Bengals' defense still ranks 30th against opposing quarterbacks in fantasy, and they're even 30th over the last two weeks despite holding Jackson to under double-digit fantasy points. Jackson's talent is undeniable, but a weak offensive line and seemingly some injury issues have hampered his ceiling. With that being said, he still has mid-level QB1 potential against a weak defense.

Tennessee Titans running back
Tony Pollard had been an underwhelming fantasy contributor ever since
Tyjae Spears returned from injured reserve, but that all changed last week as Pollard exploded for 161 rushing yards and two touchdowns in the Titans' Week 14 win over the Cleveland Browns. The 28-year-old will look to carry the momentum from last weekend into this Sunday's Week 15 contest against the San Francisco 49ers. Tennessee seems to be riding the hot hand at running back, so Pollard will likely get the first crack at handling the every-down role this week. If he starts strong, he could have a shot at replicating last week's huge game. If Pollard can excel against a strong Browns run defense, he's capable of finding similar success against the Niners, who rank near the middle of the league in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this year. With that being said, we can't guarantee that Pollard will explode just because of one big, unexpected performance. There's still some risk here, making Pollard a low-floor, high-ceiling option for Week 15. He ranks as the overall RB34 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings and can be deployed as a flex in most formats.

Tennessee Titans quarterback
Cameron Ward remains off the fantasy radar heading into Sunday's Week 15 contest against the San Francisco 49ers. Ward has been very disappointing in his first pro season after being selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. The Miami product has 10 touchdowns and 13 touchdowns this season with a poor 59.1% completion rate. He also ranks as just the QB27 in fantasy leagues this year despite playing every offensive snap through 13 games. On a promising note, Ward has scored two touchdowns in two of his last three games. However, he's still struggling to accrue yardage, and the completion rate and turnover problems persist. Ward ranks as the overall QB30 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings and can be benched in all fantasy leagues.

Buffalo Bills kicker
Matt Prater has filled in admirably for
Tyler Bass (hip, groin) this season, but he's not a must-start fantasy option for Week 15 against the New England Patriots. Prater hasn't scored double-digit fantasy points since Week 8, and he ranks as the overall K20 in total scoring through 14 weeks this season. To his credit, the veteran kicker has been mostly accurate, going 18-for-20 on field goals and 38-for-41 on extra points. However, with just 1.4 field goals per game and only one successful attempt from beyond 50 yards, Prater hasn't delivered very many high-scoring kicks. He'll also get a tougher matchup this week against the Patriots, who have allowed the 12th-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers in 2025. Furthermore, he'll face questionable weather conditions with cold temperatures and snow forecasted for Foxborough, Massachusetts, on Sunday afternoon. Prater ranks as the #14 kicker in RotoBaller's Week 15 fantasy football rankings. Managers in leagues with 12 or fewer teams can find better options to fill the kicker spot this week.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Tyrell Shavers has been a consistent piece of the team's rotation at receiver this season. Shavers has played at least 20% of the snaps on offense in every game and has been closer to 50% over the last six games. The 26-year-old notched a career-high four receptions for 90 yards on five targets in Week 11, but has only one reception on one target for 16 yards in three games since. The second-year wideout doesn't have a reliable floor for targets in the Bills' low-volume passing offense, and he only profiles as a deep-league desperation flex option for Sunday's divisional matchup against the New England Patriots.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Gabe Davis has played in four games with the team this season after spending time on Injured Reserve due to a knee injury earlier in the season. Davis has played 53.8% of the offensive snaps, second-highest among Bills wideouts behind
Khalil Shakir in that time, and has compiled seven receptions for 88 yards on 10 targets. The 26-year-old receiver is a trusted veteran who knows the Bills' offensive system and is a reliable blocker in the running game, which has earned him the right to be on the field more often than not. The floor for production isn't high for Davis in a spread-out and low-volume Bills passing attack, though, and he profiles as a deep-league flex option in Week 15 against the New England Patriots.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver
Puka Nacua has been excellent this season, and he should continue to play at a high level in a favorable matchup against the Detroit Lions on Sunday in Week 15. He has been able to co-exist alongside
Davante Adams (hamstring), as both players rank within the top six wide receivers in fantasy scoring this year. Nacua himself is the overall WR2 in scoring, trailing only
Jaxon Smith-Njigba. The 24-year-old could shrink the gap between him and Smith-Njigba this week, given that Nacua has an extremely enticing matchup against the Lions. Detroit's defense has allowed the fifth-most receiving yards, second-most touchdowns, and second-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. Nacua ranks as the overall WR3 in RotoBaller's fantasy football rankings for Week 15.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver
Davante Adams (hamstring) is looking to bounce back against the Detroit Lions in Week 15 after a relatively disappointing performance last Sunday. Although he is currently listed as questionable to face Detroit, head coach Sean McVay indicated that the veteran receiver should suit up. Adams saw his six-game touchdown streak come to an end last weekend, but he has still been one of the NFL's most dangerous scoring threats with 14 touchdowns through 13 games. He is the sixth-highest-scoring fantasy receiver in 2025 and has shown that he can co-exist with
Puka Nacua in this elite
Matthew Stafford-led offense. Adams should excel this week against the Lions, who have allowed the fifth-most receiving yards, second-most touchdowns, and second-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. He ranks as the overall WR5 in RotoBaller's fantasy football rankings for Week 15.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Joshua Palmer (ankle) was limited every day in practice this week and heads into Sunday's divisional game against the New England Patriots listed as questionable. Palmer last suited up in the Week 12 Thursday night game against the Houston Texans, where he snagged two receptions for 21 yards on four targets. The 26-year-old has often been unavailable due to injury this season and hasn't emerged as a reliable option when he has been on the field. He's recorded exactly two receptions in each of the past five games he's played, and he's only surpassed 50 yards in two of eight games. Palmer is a tough player to trust in deeper leagues in Week 15 if he's active. If he's unable to go,
Gabe Davis and
Brandin Cooks would be in line to see more opportunities behind
Keon Coleman and
Khalil Shakir.

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver
Andre Baccellia is coming off season highs in targets and routes run in Week 14. The 28-year-old had to step into an expanded role and might be asked to fill a bigger role in the offense on Sunday. The Cardinals will be without
Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel),
Greg Dortch (chest), and
Xavier Weaver (hamstring) in Week 15. With a depleted receiving core, Baccellia will slide into the WR2 role in the offense. Entering Week 15, Baccellia will face a stout Houston Texans defense. The Texans' defense has allowed the fewest receiving touchdowns and the fourth-fewest receptions this season. The Cardinals' offense has funneled the majority of their targets to
Trey McBride and
Michael Wilson over the last few weeks. In the last three games Harrison has missed, McBride and Wilson have been targeted on just over 52 percent of
Jacoby Brissett's passing attempts. Despite an expanded role, Baccellia will be a desperation flex option in deeper leagues for fantasy managers.

Buffalo Bills tight end
Dalton Kincaid doesn't have an injury designation heading into Sunday's matchup against the New England Patriots. Kincaid returned in Week 14 after missing three straight games due to a hamstring injury, and he hauled in four of his five targets for 41 yards and a touchdown. The 26-year-old tight end has been Buffalo's best weapon in the passing game this season, averaging a career-best 54.3 receiving yards per game, and he has already more than doubled his previous career high of two touchdowns in a season. Kincaid will look to stay hot on Sunday in a big game versus the Patriots, who rank 20th in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing tight ends.

December 13, 2025
The Los Angeles Rams defense/special teams has been a top fantasy option for most of this season, but they'll face a tougher test this Sunday as they host the Detroit Lions in Week 15. Through 13 games so far, the Lions have allowed the third-fewest fantasy points to opposing D/ST units. They're catching the Rams at an inopportune time, too, as Los Angeles' defense has been somewhat underwhelming over the last two weeks. They surrendered 358 yards and 25 points to the Panthers in Week 13, tallying just two sacks and zero turnovers. Then, in Week 14, they allowed 314 yards and 17 points to the Cardinals, recording three sacks and one interception. Detroit's offense has been much stronger than both Carolina and Arizona, so we wouldn't be shocked to see the Rams D/ST post subpar numbers once again this week. The Rams currently rank as the #15 D/ST unit in the latest RotoBaller fantasy football rankings for Week 15.
