Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Josh Downs has been quiet of late, having caught just three of his eight targets for 13 scoreless yards over his past two games. Downs will look to get back on track at home against the Houston Texans in Week 13. The Texans represent a difficult matchup for Downs as they are allowing just the 29th-most fantasy points per game to opposing receivers this season. Downs has not been a priority target in the Indy passing attack this season, which has cut into his fantasy value. He sets up as a WR5 and is not a safe fantasy option heading into Week 13.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Michael Pittman Jr. continued to show a nose for the end zone in a Week 12 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, catching his seventh touchdown in 11 games. He will look to keep it going at home against the Houston Texans in Week 13. The Texans have been a difficult matchup for receivers this season, allowing just the 29th-most fantasy points per game to the position thus far. Pittman has operated as the Colts' No. 1 receiver this season and should continue to see plenty of targets, which keeps him in the low-end WR2 conversation for Week 13 despite the tough matchup.

Indianapolis Colts running back
Jonathan Taylor is coming off a rare slow outing for him as he gained just 58 scoreless yards in a loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12. Taylor will look to bounce back at home against the Houston Texans in Week 13. The Texans have been solid against the run this season, allowing just the 22nd-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs thus far. Taylor has been one of the most dominant fantasy players in the league this season with 17 all-purpose touchdowns in 11 games and should be locked into starting lineups on a weekly basis regardless of his opponent. He sets up as a top-three fantasy running back for Week 13.

New England Patriots kicker
Andy Borregales carries spectacular momentum into Monday's Week 13 contest against the New York Giants. The rookie had the best game of his young career last weekend, going 2-for-2 on extra points and 4-for-4 on field goals, including one from beyond 50 yards out. As a result, he was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week and is now the 10th-highest-scoring fantasy kicker in 2025. Borregales' big game wasn't a fluke, and he should carry his momentum into another strong performance on Monday night. The Giants have allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to kickers in 2025, and they most recently let
Jake Bates of the Lions go 4-for-4 on extra points and 2-for-2 on field goals, including one from at least 50 yards. Borregales' kicking skills, favorable matchup, and role in a high-scoring offense make him a very appealing fantasy option for Week 13 against the Giants. He currently ranks as the overall K8 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy football rankings.

The New England Patriots D/ST unit is a borderline fantasy option heading into Monday's Week 13 contest against the New York Giants. New York's offense still has plenty of holes, but the unit is certainly trending up with the return of
Jaxson Dart (concussion) on Monday night. The rookie has played clean football with just three interceptions through nine games, and he's been able to rack up a total of 17 touchdowns on the ground and through the air. While the Giants are hurting with players like
Malik Nabers (knee) and
Cam Skattebo (ankle) done for the year, their offense should still put up a significant fight against New England's solid defense. New England's D/ST has the sixth-most fantasy points among defenses this season, but the Pats have also forced just two turnovers over their last three games. Taking on the Giants won't be easy. New England ranks as the #11 D/ST unit in this week's RotoBaller expert fantasy rankings.

The Los Angeles Rams D/ST continues to be a must-start unit in most fantasy leagues ahead of Sunday's Week 13 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. The Rams' defense ranks #2 in fantasy scoring this year, and now, they'll face a Panthers offense that has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing D/ST units in 2025. Carolina has 10 interceptions and seven lost fumbles this year, whereas Los Angeles has 12 interceptions and seven fumble recoveries. Los Angeles should have no trouble slowing down the Panthers both on the ground and through the air this weekend. The Rams D/ST ranks #3 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings, and they have the upside to finish Week 13 in the #1 slot.

Los Angeles Rams kicker
Harrison Mevis finally kicked his first NFL field goal during his third game last Sunday. He remains perfect on kicks this season, and his strong stretch of games prompted the Rams to release fellow kicker
Joshua Karty on Friday. Mevis now has the position group all to himself, and he's surging at the right time. He went 4-for-4 on extra points and 2-for-2 on field goals last week, including one from beyond 50 yards out. He remains a perfect 13-for-13 on extra points and 2-for-2 on field goals since joining the Rams and making his NFL debut. This week, Mevis takes on a Panthers team allowing the 10th-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers in 2025. Despite this tougher matchup, Mevis is a promising fantasy kicker thanks to how frequently the Rams get into scoring position. He's certainly worth streaming and starting this weekend. After all, he ranks as the overall K6 in RotoBaller's Week 13 fantasy rankings.

Los Angeles Rams tight end
Colby Parkinson has caught a touchdown pass in each of his last three games while cementing himself atop the depth chart. The 26-year-old has been quite productive in the wake of
Tyler Higbee (ankle) landing on injured reserve, and he's firmly on the fantasy radar for his Week 13 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Over his last three games, Parkinson has 10 catches, 96 yards, and three touchdowns, ranking as the overall TE3 in PPR leagues during that span. While that's admittedly a small sample size and the touchdown streak may not be sustainable, Parkinson is still a solid streamer for this weekend. It certainly helps that the Panthers have allowed the second-most receiving yards and fifth-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends in 2025. The 26-year-old ranks in the TE2 tier, but he can certainly be deployed as a starter this week in leagues with at least 12 teams.

Los Angeles Rams running back
Blake Corum continues to carve out a modest role behind
Kyren Williams. However, the bulk of his volume has been short-yardage runs, leaving him off the fantasy radar in most leagues. Over the last two weeks, Corum has a respectable 15 carries, but he has totaled just 34 rushing yards (2.27 yards per carry). He also has zero touchdowns and just one reception during that span. Williams remains the clear lead-back in Los Angeles, which leaves Corum as a bench-worthy running back in most fantasy leagues. Even against the Panthers, who have allowed the eighth-most rushing yards and seventh-most fantasy points to running backs in 2025, Corum isn't a dependable fantasy option. He ranks as the overall RB49 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver
Jordan Whittington remains off the fantasy radar in his role behind
Puka Nacua and
Davante Adams. Whittington is nothing more than a fantasy handcuff, and he's not a reliable fantasy option for Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. He's coming off a game against the Buccaneers in which he tied his season-high with three receptions, and he added 17 yards on a 61% snap share. Evidently, even when Whittington is having one of his best games of the year, he's still seeing relatively modest target and snap share numbers. Plus, this week, he's facing off against a Panthers defense allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. Whittington can be left on waivers in all leagues. He ranks as the overall WR84 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings for Week 13.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver
Davante Adams has emerged as one of the most surefire touchdown threats in the NFL. He has an impressive five-game touchdown streak in the works, and during those five weeks, he has amassed a total of nine touchdowns. On the year, he ranks as the overall WR6 in PPR leagues with 48 catches, 631 yards, and 12 trips to the end zone. Adams was already one of the most talented receivers in the NFL, but he has taken his fantasy stock to the next level with his high-volume role inside one of the league's most prolific passing offenses led by MVP quarterback
Matthew Stafford. Even while sharing volume with
Puka Nacua, Adams has shown that he and the young receiver can co-exist inside this offense. Both are top-six receivers in terms of fantasy scoring this season and show no signs of slowing down. Despite Carolina allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025, Adams ranks as the overall WR6 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver
Puka Nacua continues to rank as a top fantasy option ahead of Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Nacua has back-to-back seven-catch games, racking up 97 yards last weekend. He has gone without a touchdown in two consecutive contests but still ranks as the overall WR12 in PPR leagues during that span. For the full season, he has been the overall WR5. Nacua continues to reward fantasy managers with his high target share, route-running skills, and role in a high-powered passing offense led by MVP candidate quarterback
Matthew Stafford. As long as Nacua and Stafford remain healthy, the former will be a must-start receiver in fantasy football. That remains the case in Week 13, despite Carolina allowing the sixth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. This week, Nacua ranks as the overall WR5 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings.

Los Angeles Rams running back
Kyren Williams is coming off a disappointing fantasy performance, but he'll have an opportunity to bounce back during Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Williams had just 12 carries for 46 rushing yards in his last outing against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, struggling to maintain efficiency against a strong run defense while also losing some opportunities to
Blake Corum. While Corum remains a thorn in his side for Week 13, he should improve his yardage and scoring efficiency. After all, the Panthers have allowed the seventh-most fantasy points, eighth-most rushing yards, and eighth-most rushing touchdowns to opposing running backs in 2025. Williams ranks as the overall RB10 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings ahead of his matchup against Carolina.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback
Matthew Stafford continues to rank as a strong fantasy QB1 as he carries his MVP candidacy into Sunday's Week 13 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Stafford continues to play at an elite level, amassing 25 touchdowns and zero interceptions over his last eight games. Between his prolific passing skills and the strong supporting cast around him, Stafford has not only cemented himself as a must-start quarterback in fantasy football, but he's also putting together a very strong bid to win MVP. He'll build on both of those campaigns against the Panthers, who have allowed the 11th-fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks in 2025, but also the 13th-most passing yards. Stafford, who is a must-start regardless of matchup, ranks as the overall QB6 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Houston Texans tight end
Dalton Schultz has been very busy this season and emerged as a PPR contributor in his team's passing attack. Last week against the Bills, he only had one catch, snapping a streak of 10 straight games with multiple receptions to start the season. He had at least six catches in three straight games before last Thursday's letdown, and he'll look to bounce back in Week 13 as the Texans head to Indianapolis to face the Colts in a divisional matchup. The Colts have been a favorable matchup for tight ends, and Schultz will get
C.J. Stroud back at QB after he missed three weeks with a concussion. Stroud and Schultz have a strong connection, which is enough to make Schultz the No. 13 TE in the RotoBaller Week 13 rankings. He's not quite a "must-start" in this matchup, but he definitely makes a strong option in 12-team leagues or if you need some help at the position due to injury or ineffectiveness of the other options available this week.
