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.

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.

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.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver
Khalil Shakir has been quiet over the recent stretch of games. Shakir broke out for a season-high eight receptions for 110 yards on 10 targets against the Texans in Week 12, but in three games since, he's totaled just four receptions for 18 yards on 10 targets. The 25-year-old wideout is the only Bills wide receiver to average double-digit PPR points per game this season. However, Shakir has become tough to trust with how run-heavy the Bills have become, in addition to how spread out they are in the passing game. He profiles as a mid-tier WR3/flex option in Week 15 against a New England Patriots defense that ranks in the middle of the pack in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers.

Arizona Cardinals running back
Michael Carter fell under double-digit touches in the Week 14 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Carter was quickly phased out of the offense and was only able to garner five touches for 31 scrimmage yards. The 26-year-old's role in the offense will remain up in the air with
Emari Demercado (ankle) listed as questionable in Week 15. Demercado has missed the last three games with an ankle injury, but was able to be a limited participant in each practice this week. In a murky situation, Carter will face a difficult matchup against the Houston Texans. The Texans' defense has allowed the fourth-fewest receptions and the fifth-fewest rushing yards this season. It will be tough sliding for Carter on Sunday, even as a pass-catcher, going against a solid Texans' linebacker core. In a difficult Week 15 matchup, Carter will be a risky desperation flex option in deep PPR leagues.

Los Angeles Rams running back
Blake Corum has plenty of momentum on his side ahead of Week 15 against the Detroit Lions. Over the last two weeks, Corum has totaled 19 carries for 209 rushing yards and three rushing touchdowns, plus a three-yard reception. He has continued to play around one-third of the offensive snaps, and he has posted otherworldly efficiency with 11.0 yards per carry between his last two games. Corum's increased role and productivity have come as a result of the Rams lightening
Kyren Williams' workload to keep him fresh for the playoffs. Williams had just one more rush attempt than Corum last week, and the two have combined for five touchdowns over the last two games. While we expect Corum to remain heavily involved for the final few weeks of the regular season, his efficiency may come back down to earth this week. After all, the Lions have allowed the eighth-fewest rushing yards, sixth-fewest rushing touchdowns, and second-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. Still, Corum has proven that he has standalone value in fantasy football. He ranks as the overall RB36 in RotoBaller's fantasy football rankings for Week 15.

Los Angeles Rams running back
Kyren Williams continues to handle a reduced role as the team looks to keep him fresh heading into the 2025 NFL playoffs. While Williams is now averaging 14.0 touches per game over the last five weeks (compared to 21.9 touches per game last season), he has been able to stay on the fantasy radar as a low-end RB1 thanks to his yardage and touchdown efficiency. He averaged 6.5 yards per carry on the ground last week, and he's averaging 5.7 yards per carry over his last five games combined. He also has five touchdowns during those five games, including a trip to the end zone in back-to-back contests. Williams ranks as the overall RB9 in PPR leagues this year while starting to co-exist with
Blake Corum, who has taken on a much larger role lately. He has also proven to be matchup-proof, which means managers shouldn't be too concerned about this week's game against the Lions, who have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs. Even with Corum making an impact and a tough Lions run defense on tap, we expect Williams to remain a very strong running back option ahead of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues. He ranks as the overall RB12 in the latest RotoBaller fantasy rankings for Week 15.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback
Matthew Stafford meets his old team, the Detroit Lions, for a revenge game on Sunday in Week 15. Stafford is having the best season of his storied career, completing exactly one-third of his pass attempts for 3,354 yards, 35 touchdowns, and just four interceptions. He has supported fantasy-relevant roles for a wide variety of Rams skill players, including
Puka Nacua,
Davante Adams, and
Colby Parkinson, as well as running backs
Kyren Williams and
Blake Corum. Stafford's strong campaign should continue this week. While he was already quite matchup-proof, he should find plenty of success against the Lions, who have allowed the fifth-most passing touchdowns and sixth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2025. He ranks as the overall QB2 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings and should be started in all leagues.

Arizona Cardinals running back
Bam Knight saw a season high of six targets in Week 14's loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Knight was able to stay involved in the Cardinals' offense despite the team flipping to a pass-heavy game script early in the game. The 24-year-old will keep the RB1 role on Sunday with
Trey Benson (knee) ruled out for the remainder of the 2025 season. Heading into Week 15, Knight is RotoBaller's 38th-ranked running back in Half-PPR leagues in a difficult matchup against the Houston Texans. The Texans' defense has allowed the fifth-fewest rushing yards and the 10th-fewest rushing touchdowns this season. Knight has been a touchdown-dependent running back and has yet to produce over eight fantasy points in a game without scoring a touchdown in half-PPR formats. Knight should be viewed as a low-end RB3 and a desperation flex option in a tough Week 15 matchup.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver
Demarcus Robinson appears to be holding onto his spot on the depth chart behind
Jauan Jennings and
Ricky Pearsall. Robinson drew more snaps than
Kendrick Bourne for the third straight game in Week 13, leading into the 49ers' bye. The extra time on the field did not amount to any significant production, however, and Robinson finished the game with one carry for a six-yard gain. Despite injuries to Jennings, Pearsall, and
George Kittle earlier this season, Robinson was unable to establish a greater role for himself. On the season, he has 13 receptions for 163 yards on 24 targets. He is unlikely to make an impact in Sunday's matchup against the Titans. Despite a forgiving matchup against a bottom-tier defense, Robinson can be left off of fantasy football rosters entirely in Week 15.
