Pittsburgh Steelers tight end
Jonnu Smith has seen limited work in the offense over the last few weeks. Since Week 10, Smith has seen a combined seven targets and two rushing attempts. The 30-year-old has yet to be a consistent fantasy option and has only had two productive weeks this season. Entering Week 13, Smith will face a tough Buffalo Bills passing defense that has allowed the fewest receiving yards this season. However, the Bills' run defense has allowed the third-most rushing yards this season. The Steelers' offense may want to establish the run game early against a run-funnel Bills defense and take pressure off quarterback
Aaron Rodgers (wrist), who is still battling a left wrist injury. Smith is difficult to trust for fantasy managers heading into Week 13 and is mainly an option in deep leagues.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver
David Sills V made the most of his opportunity last week with
Drake London (knee) absent, hauling in two of his three targets for 16 yards and one touchdown. London has been ruled out for Week 13 again, so Sills should get an opportunity to be fantasy relevant for a second straight game on Sunday. The 29-year-old will have to share looks with
Darnell Mooney,
Kyle Pitts Sr.,
Bijan Robinson, and others, so the veteran wideout is nothing more than a speculative flier in very deep leagues, especially given that Sunday's matchup versus the Jets is expected to be a low-scoring affair against a defense that has been fairly good against the pass in recent weeks.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver
Kendrick Bourne has been a non-factor in the offense over the last few weeks. In fact, Bourne hasn't hauled in a pass since Week 10. Honestly, Bourne hasn't been a factor in the offense since his five-catch performance against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 6. The 49ers are getting healthy on offense and Bourne is falling out of the offensive gameplan. Last week, Bourne saw a season-low nine percent of the offensive snaps during the win over the Carolina Panthers. Bourne is unlikely to help unless an injury happens, so the 30-year-old is best left on the bench ahead of Week 13.

Denver Broncos wide receiver
Pat Bryant is coming off his best performance of the season against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11. The rookie wideout hauled in five of his six targets for 82 yards in the win. This was a solid showing from Bryant who has been a non-factor in the offense outside of that. Bryant has been held to two receptions or less in every game besides his most recent performance. It remains to be seen what kind of involvement Bryant will have coming out of the bye week. He'll likely be a distant third option behind
Courtland Sutton and
Troy Franklin. Bryant is worth a stash in dynasty formats, but isn't a recommended starting option against the Washington Commanders this weekend.

Tennessee Titans running back
Tyjae Spears continues to have a limited upside while splitting up the reps in the backfield. Spears has good long term upside, but has a limited ceiling while he continues to split up the backfield duties with
Tony Pollard. At the moment, Pollard gets most of the ground work while Spears does the receiving work in the backfield. Last week, Spears rushed three times for four yards, while hauling in four receptions for 21 yards in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The 24-year-old is worth stashing in dynasty formats, but doesn't have great upside in redraft formats. At best, Spears offers low-end flex value for the upcoming matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Tennessee Titans tight end
Chig Okonkwo (foot) is officially listed as questionable ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Okonkwo has been limited in practice this week due to a lingering foot issue. When healthy, Okonkwo has been a lackluster option for fantasy managers this season. The 26-year-old has been playing better lately with six receptions for 96 yards over his last two games. Despite that, Okonkwo will still have limited upside due to the fact he'll continue splitting up the playing time with
Gunnar Helm. It doesn't seem like Okonkwo is going to be 100 percent healthy for this game. Fantasy managers should consider him on the lower end in the TE2 conversation for Week 13.

Tennessee Titans tight end
Gunnar Helm is coming off his best performance of the season. Helm hauled in six of his seven targets for 51 yards during the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The rookie tight end has stepped up his play recently with 10 receptions over his last two games. His role in the offense could increase this weekend with
Chig Okonkwo (foot) currently questionable for the Week 13 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. If he sits, Helm would take over as the primary tight end in this offense for at least one game. Regardless, Helm has done enough lately to be worth a look as a TE2 in deep leagues for this weekend.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver
Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) carries a questionable tag into the Week 13 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Ayomanor has been limited in practice all week due to a lingering hamstring injury that kept him out of last week's game. When healthy, Ayomanor hasn't offered fantasy managers much of anything all season long. The rookie wideout has been held to under 50 receiving yards in every game but two this season. Ayomanor has seen five targets or more in each of his last five games. Despite that, Ayomanor is having little success right now and shouldn't be viewed as anything more than a low-end flex option.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver
Chimere Dike tied for the team lead with seven targets in Week 12 against the Seattle Seahawks, recording five catches for 44 yards and a touchdown. Across 11 games this season, the rookie has hauled in 28 catches for 252 yards and two touchdowns on 43 targets. Dike could get some target competition back in the lineup in Week 13, as Titans wideout
Elic Ayomanor (hamstring) is questionable to play on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars after being sidelined in Week 12. Still, Dike has emerged as a relatively safe bet for playing time in Tennessee, playing at least 80% of his team's offensive snaps in three out of his last four games. The Jaguars also profile as a favorable matchup for opposing wide receivers, as they currently rank 22nd in the NFL in passing yards allowed (2,788) and 26th in passing touchdowns allowed (22). Dike profiles as a WR4/deep-league flex option for fantasy managers in Week 13.

Across 11 games this season, Tennessee Titans running back
Tony Pollard has recorded 690 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 166 touches. The 28-year-old's 4.2 yards-per-touch average is the lowest of his seven-year NFL career. Pollard has been particularly inefficient over his last two games, recording just 67 scrimmage yards on 28 touches. Making matters worse for fantasy managers, Pollard is stuck in a nearly dead-even playing time split with fellow Titans running back
Tyjae Spears. In Week 13, Pollard will face the stingy Jacksonville Jaguars run defense. Entering the week, the Jaguars' defense ranks seventh in the NFL in yards per carry allowed (3.9) and has allowed just seven rushing touchdowns on the season. Pollard appears unlikely to see a high volume of touches, nor be particularly efficient with the work he receives against Jacksonville. He profiles as a low-end RB3/flex option for fantasy managers in Week 13.

Tennessee Titans quarterback
Cameron Ward had arguably the best game of his young NFL career in Week 12 against the Seattle Seahawks, completing 28 of 42 pass attempts for 256 yards, one touchdown, and zero interceptions. Ward also recorded 37 rushing yards and a touchdown on six rushing attempts. The 23-year-old has been far more aggressive as a runner in recent weeks, recording 70 yards on nine attempts over his last two games after totaling just 46 yards on 18 attempts over his first nine contests. He now faces a favorable matchup on paper in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Through 12 weeks, Jacksonville ranks 22nd in the NFL in passing yards allowed (2,788) and 26th in passing touchdowns allowed (22). Fantasy managers should proceed with caution based on the overall struggles of Ward and the Titans' offense in 2025, but the arrow is tentatively pointed in the right direction for the rookie. Ward profiles as a low-end fantasy QB2 in Week 13 against the Jaguars.

Atlanta Falcons tight end
Kyle Pitts Sr. hauled in just two passes for 25 scoreless yards in Week 12, but despite the limited production, the 25-year-old is now 2-for-2 in leading the team in targets in the two games this season with
Kirk Cousins at the helm. The other commonality in those two contests was that
Drake London (knee) was absent, which will again be the case on Sunday against the Jets. While that is a positive for Pitts' prospects this week, the 6-foot-6 tight end has found the end zone just one time this season. The Jets are middle of the pack in terms of yielding fantasy points to opposing tight ends, but this game has one of the lowest expected totals on the slate (39.5) and with a low chance of scoring, the former first-rounder projects as a volume-dependent low-end TE1.

Miami Dolphins tight end
Darren Waller (pectoral) is being activated off Injured Reserve and will play in his team's Week 13 matchup against the New Orleans Saints, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Waller has been sidelined by a pectoral injury since Week 7. Across four games before getting injured, the 33-year-old recorded 10 catches for 117 yards and four touchdowns on 12 targets. Waller was emerging as a favorite end-zone target of Dolphins quarterback
Tua Tagovailoa, and he played a season-high 69% of Miami's offensive snaps in Week 6, his final full game before getting injured. Entering Week 13, the Saints rank in the bottom ten among all NFL teams in passing touchdowns allowed (20). Waller profiles as a borderline top-12 fantasy tight end in his matchup on Sunday against New Orleans.

Atlanta Falcons quarterback
Kirk Cousins threw for 199 yards and a pair of touchdowns (one interception, too) last week in his second start of the season and first since Week 8. The veteran was able to put that solid fantasy performance together despite completing just 16 passes (23 attempts). It could be tough sledding in Week 13 in a road matchup against the Jets, a defense that has yielded the tenth-fewest pass yards per game (194.6) on the season and eighth-fewest over the past three weeks (181.3). Not only that, the 37-year-old will be without the team's top receiving option,
Drake London (knee), for the second straight week. Fold in a low implied total of 39.5 for this game (21 for Atlanta) and the fact that the Falcons may lean more heavily on
Bijan Robinson and
Tyler Allgeier, it leaves Cousins as a low-end QB2 in Week 13.

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell called star wide receiver
Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) "day-to-day" with an ankle injury, and said he doesn't know what that means for St. Brown's status in Week 14 and 15, per Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press. St. Brown was forced to exit in the first quarter from Detroit's Thanksgiving Day loss to the Green Bay Packers after getting rolled up on. The 26-year-old has previously been classified as week-to-week, although it doesn't sound as though there's been much concrete change since his initial injury diagnosis. The Lions will take on the streaking Dallas Cowboys in Week 14 next Thursday night. In addition to St. Brown, Detroit may be without tight end
Brock Wright (neck) and wide receiver
Kalif Raymond (ankle) against Dallas. Lions wideout
Jameson Williams stepped up with a huge performance in Week 13 after St. Brown went down, and depth wide receivers
Isaac TeSlaa and
Tom Kennedy could also be forced into larger roles if St. Brown cannot play in Week 14.
