Indianapolis Colts defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo is expected to receive strong consideration for the New York Giants' head-coaching vacancy this upcoming cycle, a league source told NFL insider Josina Anderson. Anarumo has familiarity and a relationship with current general manager Joe Schoen, but it remains to be seen how much that connection will influence the team's ownership. The Giants fired former head coach Brian Daboll in the middle of the 2025 season, and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka has taken over as the interim head coach. The G-Men also just fired their defensive coordinator and could be looking for a defensive-minded head coach in the upcoming coaching cycle. Anarumo has put his name on the map for a head-coaching job next year after improving Indy's defense in his first year with the team in 2025.

Washington Commanders quarterback
Jayden Daniels (elbow) said he has been throwing, according to John Keim of ESPN. Daniels started throwing the football around last week, but there remains no clear timetable on when he might return. "If I'm healthy and ready to go, I want to be out there," Daniels said when asked about the possibility of returning this year despite the injury risk. The 24-year-old is expected to resume practicing with the team this week (likely in a limited fashion), but he's not expected to play on Sunday Night Football against the Denver Broncos in Week 13. The second-year QB suffered a dislocation of his left (non-throwing) elbow in Week 9 and has been out since. With the Commanders well out of playoff contention, it remains to be seen if Washington will even consider bringing Daniels back this year. Veteran
Marcus Mariota has been starting with Daniels sidelined, and he should make another start this weekend in a tough matchup against the Broncos.

Tennessee Titans quarterback
Cameron Ward completed 28 of 42 pass attempts for 256 yards and a touchdown and added 37 yards and a touchdown on six rushing attempts in his team's Week 12 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. After the game, Titans interim head coach Mike McCoy said that Ward's ability to take what the defense was giving with his legs is the "next part of his growth." The 23-year-old has now rushed for 70 yards over the last two weeks after recording 46 rushing yards over the first nine games of his NFL career. If Ward is going to continue to utilize his legs, it would obviously be a boost to his fantasy value. The rookie has struggled overall this season, but his performance against Seattle in Week 12 could be a sign of a late-season breakout. Ward could profile as a solid fantasy QB2 in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Long-time NFL insider Josina Anderson reports that "at least two" NFL teams are expected to have interest in talking to current University of North Carolina head coach Bill Belichick, with "a third team (that) could also enter the mix." Anderson also reports that Belichick's "own desires and preferences regarding workplace dynamics" played more of a part in why he did not wind up with an NFL job for the 2025 season than has previously been discussed. Belichick spent 24 seasons as the head coach of the New England Patriots, winning 68.7% of his regular-season games and six Super Bowl rings. In his first season at the helm for North Carolina, Belichick's Tar Heels have a 4-7 record. Belichick's NFL resume obviously speaks for itself, but it's still fair to wonder if he hasn't lost a step and is still capable of leading an NFL franchise at 73 years old.

Denver Broncos linebacker Alex Singleton (illness) is reportedly "eyeing a return" in his team's Week 13 matchup against the Washington Commanders, per Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. Singleton had surgery to remove a cancerous testicular tumor on the day after Denver's Week 10 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Remarkably, with the Broncos having their bye in Week 12, it appears Singleton may end up missing just one game. The 31-year-old has recorded 36 solo tackles, one sack, and a forced fumble across 10 games played this season. His return would strengthen what is already one of the NFL's best defenses from top to bottom.

Across 11 games this season, Atlanta Falcons running back
Tyler Allgeier has recorded 89 catches for 324 yards and seven touchdowns. As long as star Falcons back
Bijan Robinson remains healthy, Allgeier's production upside is limited. However, the Falcons have consistently demonstrated a willingness to use Allgeier in goal-to-go situations, which gives him touchdown-scoring potential every week. Additionally, should Robinson get injured, Allgeier holds fantasy league-winning potential. As the fantasy playoffs draw closer in most leagues, Allgeier is worth rostering for his handcuff upside alone. In the right matchups, such as Atlanta's Week 13 game against the New York Jets, Allgeier has standalone value as a flex option. He should be rostered in all leagues with 12 or more teams heading into Week 13.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver
Xavier Legette delivered another underwhelming result in the Panthers' 20-9 defeat in Week 12 to the 49ers. The Carolina WR had three receptions for 22 yards and posted 5.2 PPR points. In 10 games played this season, Legette has logged double-digit PPR points only three times. The Panthers will next take on the Los Angeles Rams, who rank 16th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to WRs this season. However, Legette has not shown enough promise through the season to take advantage of the decent matchup. Plus, the Los Angeles pass rush may make it a very long day for Carolina QB
Bryce Young. Legette registered more than 22 receiving yards only once in the past five weeks. Due to his lack of consistent quality results and volume, fantasy players should continue to leave Legette on their free agent lists.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver
Jalen Coker caught three of his four targets for 32 yards in the Panthers' 20-9 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. The Carolina WR totaled 6.2 PPR points, marking the first time he had back-to-back weeks with over 6.0 points. This year's fantasy totals for Coker are still unremarkable, and he has yet to be targeted more than four times in a single game. Carolina is facing the Rams in Week 13. Los Angeles ranks 16th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to the WR position this year. Despite the middling matchup for his position, Coker has not delivered enough quality results this season to be a factor for fantasy lineups. Fantasy players should not even consider picking him up, as his volume is too low to justify a roster spot. No Carolina WR other than
Tetairoa McMillan is worth a fantasy roster spot, and Coker has not displayed any unique playmaking abilities that the team desperately needs.

Carolina Panthers running back
Chuba Hubbard rushed for 16 yards on three carries in Carolina's 20-9 defeat to the 49ers. He saw more production in the passing game as he caught all four of his targets for 27 yards. The Carolina RB posted 8.3 PPR points, which was his most since Week 8. Hubbard also played the most snaps in a single game this year since Week 8, at 35%. At this point in the season, Hubbard remains a backup RB for the Panthers and is only worth rostering as a fantasy handcuff to
Rico Dowdle. Fantasy players who do not have Dowdle, but do have Hubbard, can cut the Panthers' backup RB if he is still on their rosters. He will work on many passing downs for Carolina, but not enough to post quality fantasy totals.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Alec Pierce put up a dud in his team's Week 12 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, recording just one catch for 26 yards on two targets. It was a disappointing result for the 25-year-old, as he had been showing signs of a breakout before the team's Week 11 bye. Across nine games this season, Pierce leads the NFL in yards per reception (21.1). At the same time, he's averaging a career-best six targets per game. Across four games before Indianapolis' Week 11 bye, Pierce's target rate had spiked even higher to 8.8 per contest. While Week 12 showcases that Pierce can still have bust weeks, he also holds explosive upside. Pierce should remain a waiver-wire priority in fantasy leagues with 12 or more teams heading into his Week 13 matchup against the Houston Texans.

Carolina Panthers quarterback
Bryce Young followed up his best performance of the season in Week 11 with another underwhelming outing in Week 12's 20-9 loss to the 49ers. The third-year QB went 18-for-29 for 169 yards with one TD pass. He also threw two interceptions, including one in the end zone, and registered only 10.3 fantasy points. Through 11 games, Young has scored 20-plus points only twice while averaging 13.3 Fantasy Points Per Game. The Panthers will have a tough matchup for Young in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams, who rank fifth in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to QBs. The Rams' pass defense has registered 12 interceptions this season, which is tied for the third-most in the league. Considering his mediocre fantasy totals for the year and the terrible matchup against Los Angeles, fantasy players should leave Young on the bench in all formats. You should even consider an alternative in superflex leagues if possible.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback
Sam Darnold avoided mistakes and delivered another efficient performance in a Week 12 win over the Tennessee Titans, completing 16 of 26 passes for 244 yards and two touchdowns. After turning it over seven times in the past two games, Darnold took advantage of a poor Titans defense and put up his best fantasy performance since eviscerating the Washington Commanders for 330 yards and four touchdowns in Week 9. The 28-year-old repeatedly looked for superstar wideout
Jaxon Smith-Njigba and delivered a few beautiful deep balls for explosive gains, including a 63-yard touchdown. Darnold likely shouldn't be viewed as an every-week starter for fantasy purposes due to the low pass volume and poor track record against top-flight defenses. But he gets a revenge spot in Week 13 against his former team, the Minnesota Vikings.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Tre Tucker had a modest outing in Week 12 against the Cleveland Browns, recording just three catches for 28 yards. However, Tucker was targeted 10 times and has now earned 18 targets over the last two weeks. With the Raiders having traded
Jakobi Meyers to the Jacksonville Jaguars at the trade deadline, Tucker now profiles as the clear WR1 in Las Vegas. The team's overall offensive struggles hold down the 24-year-old's upside to some degree. However, if he continues to earn close to double-digit targets every week, Tucker should see his overall production spike. In any PPR fantasy league with 12 or more teams where he's not already rostered, Tucker should be a waiver-wire target heading into a Week 13 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver
Mike Evans (collarbone) has been on Injured Reserve since late October after suffering a broken collarbone in Week 7. Evans is now technically eligible to have his return window opened, but he is not expected to be active for Tampa Bay's Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. However, Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles said on Monday that Evans is on track to return before the end of the regular season. Across four games so far in 2025, the 32-year-old has recorded 14 catches for 140 yards and a touchdown on 30 targets. While the Buccaneers have a breakout star in rookie wide receiver
Emeka Egbuka, Evans should re-assume his role as the team's WR1 once he is able to return to the field. In fantasy leagues where Evans may have been dropped, managers may be wise to pick him up and stash him for a few weeks before he garners heavy attention on the waiver wire.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver
Malik Washington hasn't been a major fantasy contributor this season, but has maintained a consistent role in the offense as a gadget piece. Washington has at least three touches in every game this season, but hasn't recorded more than six in a game. The second-year wideout has scored both of his touchdowns on the season in the past four weeks, totaling 12 catches (14 targets) for 135 yards and two touchdowns, along with four carries for 17 yards. He ranks as the WR32 in total PPR points during that time. Washington is a viable option in deeper PPR leagues thanks to his reliable floor for receptions in Miami's passing attack, and is worth adding ahead of their Week 13 matchup against the New Orleans Saints.
