Across 12 games this season, Miami Dolphins quarterback
Tua Tagovailoa has completed 67.2% of his pass attempts for 2,280 yards, 17 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions. While the 27-year-old's numbers do not jump off the page, Miami has played its best football in recent weeks, winning three straight games and four out of its last five heading into Week 14. Tagovailoa should have an opportunity to post solid numbers in a favorable matchup in Week 14 against the New York Jets. In his first matchup against New York back in Week 4, Tagovailoa threw for 177 yards and two touchdowns. His lack of rushing ability limits his fantasy upside. However, in deeper fantasy leagues or two-quarterback formats, Tagovailoa could be a solid streaming option off the waiver wire in Week 14.

Houston Texans quarterback
C.J. Stroud returned to the field in Week 13 after missing three games with a concussion and completed 22 of 35 pass attempts for 276 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception against the Indianapolis Colts. Across nine games this season, Stroud has completed 66.1% of his pass attempts for 1,978 yards, 11 touchdowns, and six interceptions. However, the Texans have turned to a much more pass-heavy approach in recent weeks. Over his last three full games, Stroud is averaging 41 pass attempts per contest. The high-volume approach gives Stroud an opportunity for fantasy production every week, even if Houston's offense struggles to be efficient. In deeper fantasy leagues, Stroud could be a solid streaming option at the quarterback position heading into a Week 14 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

New England Patriots wide receiver
Kayshon Boutte scored his team-leading sixth touchdown of the season in Monday night's win over the New York Giants. Boutte has been an impactful player for New England in his third season, leading the league with 12.7 yards per target. When healthy, the 23-year-old has operated as one of the Patriots' starting wide receivers, leading their wide receiver group in route share (67.3%). Boutte isn't a major target-earner, but he's been an explosive playmaker for breakout quarterback
Drake Maye. Boutte and the Patriots head into their Week 14 bye on a high note and will prepare for a big divisional matchup against the Buffalo Bills in Week 15. Boutte is a low-floor, high-ceiling player who could be worth adding off the waiver wire this week to have as a flex option for the rest of the season.

Arizona Cardinals quarterback
Jacoby Brissett has delivered multiple standout fantasy performances since becoming the team's starter in Week 6 while filling in for an injured
Kyler Murray (foot). Brissett is averaging 312.6 passing yards on 43 attempts per game with 14 total touchdowns and four interceptions during that time. His 43 passes per game would be the highest in the league if he qualified. The high passing volume has made the 32-year-old signal-caller a strong streaming option, as he's cleared 300 yards passing in three straight games. Brissett draws a tougher matchup in Week 14, however, against a Los Angeles Rams defense that has allowed the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Josh Downs has struggled lately, recording just five catches for 57 yards on 13 targets over the past three games. The 24-year-old hasn't been a major factor in the Colts' passing attack, taking a back seat to the team's other primary weapons. Downs mostly operates out of the slot, limiting him to three-wide receiver sets. The former 2022 third-round pick is still a useful player in deeper PPR leagues, but it's tough to trust him in 12-team leagues. He's totaled 40 receptions (59 targets) for 370 yards and three touchdowns in 11 games this season, averaging 8.5 PPR points. Downs at least has a more favorable Week 14 matchup against the Jaguars after facing the elite Texans defense last week.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver
Brandon Aiyuk (knee) has yet to be physically cleared to return from a torn ACL, MCL, and meniscus suffered in Week 7 last season, and it remains to be seen if he will. The 49ers reportedly voided guarantees in Aiyuk's four-year contract extension, which could lead to Aiyuk not suiting up for the 49ers this season. The Washington Commanders are one team to watch for if Aiyuk becomes available, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. The 27-year-old Aiyuk is close with Commanders quarterback
Jayden Daniels, his former teammate at Arizona State. In addition, general manager Adam Peters was on staff when the 49ers drafted and extended Aiyuk, so he has a good understanding of Aiyuk as a player and person. Aiyuk, when healthy, is still an excellent player. He recorded 75 receptions for 1,342 yards and seven touchdowns on 105 targets in his last full season in 2023. Aiyuk would draw interest from multiple teams if he reaches free agency, and Washington is expected to be one of the top suitors.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Tre Tucker only had three catches for 20 yards in Week 13 against the Chargers, but he still served as the team's No. 1 wide receiver, playing 96% of snaps. No other receiver played more than 56% of snaps, and Tucker's three targets were behind only RB
Ashton Jeanty's and TE
Brock Bowers' target totals. Tucker had been even busier in the previous two weeks, drawing 18 targets in those two games from
Geno Smith. He has multiple catches in each of his 12 games this season, totaling 44 catches for 550 yards and five touchdowns. The third-year receiver should stay very involved as the Raiders' top wide receiver moving forward, but he has tough matchups in Week 14 against the Broncos and Week 16 against the Texans. He does have potential upside, but will remain unreliable since the Raiders' offense has been scuffling so badly in recent weeks.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver
Chimere Dike has shown lots of big-play potential this season on both special teams and as a receiver. The fourth-round pick has a pair of punt return touchdowns and a pair of receiving scores this season and has hauled in 12 of his 17 targets for a total of 361 yards. With
Calvin Ridley (fibula) done for the season, Dike and fellow rookie
Elic Ayomanor should continue to get plenty of opportunities to work with
Cam Ward. Dike has at least three targets in eight straight games and has been involved as a rusher. His big-play potential makes him a high-risk option in a flex spot, but he does bring upside if you're searching for receiver depth on the waiver wire. In Week 14, he faces the Browns before a more favorable matchup against the 49ers in Week 15.

December 2, 2025
Detroit Lions wide receiver
Isaac TeSlaa caught both of his two targets for 35 yards and one touchdown in the Lions' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Packers. The third-round rookie could be lined up for even more work in the next few weeks since both
Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) and
Kalif Raymond (ankle) are battling injuries, which could move him up to second on the depth chart behind only
Jameson Williams. With tight end
Sam LaPorta (back) already out as well, the Lions will need pass-catchers to step up in Week 14's Thursday Night Football matchup with the Cowboys, who have been a great matchup for receivers this season. Even though he only has six catches for 100 yards this season, TeSlaa has three touchdowns, and in an expanded role, he's a high-risk option that you can plug straight into a flex spot as a strong streaming option in Week 14 if Raymond and St. Brown are sidelined.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver
Andrei Iosivas has gotten extra playing time the last two weeks with
Ja'Marr Chase (suspension) and
Tee Higgins (concussion) missing time. Iosivas had four catches for 61 yards against the Patriots without Chase, but he only managed one catch for 29 yards against the Ravens. He still had a solid fantasy day, though, since his 29-yard catch went for a touchdown. With Higgins still in the concussion protocol as the week of preparation begins for the Bengals' trip to Buffalo, Iosivas could be in an expanded role again this week. If Higgins is out again, Iosivas will be a high-risk flex play with good upside since he should be set for more targets once again as
Joe Burrow settles in and the Bengals try to make a late playoff push. Until Higgins is cleared, Iosivas still has solid fantasy value and potential.

New York Giants running back
Devin Singletary had 12 carries for 68 yards and a touchdown against the Patriots on Monday Night Football and added three catches for 34 more yards. He played 28 snaps (51%) compared to 27 for
Tyrone Tracy Jr. (49%), who took some big hits and was ultimately carted to the locker room. Tracy has been banged up, and the Giants will likely be careful with him going forward, leaving more work potentially for Singletary. The Giants are on a bye in Week 14, but they have favorable matchups against the Commanders and Raiders in two of their next three contests. After getting double-digit carries in three straight games and scoring three touchdowns in that span, Singletary is definitely a low-end flex option in those favorable matchups following the bye.

Chicago Bears wide receiver
Luther Burden III has at least three catches in four straight games and has at least five targets in each of his last three. He led the team with four catches in their Black Friday win over the Eagles on a windy day in Philadelphia. While his yardage totals have been mediocre, the second-round rookie from Missouri is getting enough looks to eventually show off his big-play potential. Burden is clearly operating as the team's third receiver behind
Rome Odunze and
DJ Moore, playing over 50% of snaps the last two weeks ahead of
Olamide Zaccheaus. Burden will remain a risky flex play against Green Bay in Week 14 with so many other options in the offense, but if you are looking for receiver depth, he's one of the top widely available options.
--Zach ThompsonSource: ESPN
December 2, 2025
New England Patriots wide receiver
Kayshon Boutte posted four catches for 35 yards and a touchdown on five targets in Monday night's win over the New York Giants. Boutte finished the game tied with tight end
Hunter Henry for the team lead in receptions and continued his breakout campaign. The 23-year-old has emerged as a legitimate threat for New England in his third season, recording 29 receptions (38 targets) for 481 yards and a team-leading six touchdowns in 11 games. He's developed a great connection with breakout quarterback
Drake Maye on downfield targets and ranks third in the league among wide receivers with 16.6 yards per reception. Boutte should remain a viable flex option in fantasy football following New England's Week 14 bye, when the Patriots take on the division-rival Buffalo Bills.

December 2, 2025
New York Giants wide receiver
Darius Slayton hauled in two of his three targets for 41 yards and his first touchdown of the season in Monday night's loss to the New England Patriots. Slayton led the Giants in receiving in the game and found the end zone for the first time since Week 17 of last season. The 28-year-old hasn't been a huge factor for the Giants this season, totaling 26 receptions for 407 yards and one touchdown on 39 targets in 10 games. He's operated as the No. 3 option in the passing game behind
Wan'Dale Robinson and tight end
Theo Johnson in recent weeks and has returned fringe flex value in fantasy football. Slayton and the Giants head into their Week 14 bye before facing the Washington Commanders in Week 15.

December 2, 2025
New York Giants rookie quarterback
Jaxson Dart returned in Week 13 against the New England Patriots after missing the past two games due to a concussion, completing 17 of 24 passes for 139 yards and a touchdown while adding four rushes for 20 yards on the ground. Dart wasn't as active as a runner in his first game back from injury, with the four carries being his fewest in a game as a starter. He still took a huge hit on a scramble on the Giants' second drive of the game, but he managed to avoid any big collisions from that point forward. Despite the blowout loss on Monday night, the 22-year-old has been impressive in eight starts this season, completing 63.6% of his passes for 1,556 yards with 11 touchdowns and three interceptions to go with 61 carries for 337 yards and seven touchdowns as a runner. Dart will get a chance to regroup during the team's bye in Week 14. The first-rounder will next take the field in Week 15 against the division-rival Commanders, the first week of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues.
