Brenton Strange - Fantasy Football Rankings, Waiver Wire, TE Streamers, NFL DFS

The Week 14 waiver wire adds lightning round for 2025 fantasy football. Our free agent list includes Kyle Monangai, Bam Knight, Dontayvion Wicks, Devaughn Vele, Jalen Coker, Brenton Strange, Jayden Daniels, Trevor Lawrence, more.

We hope you had many victories to be grateful for over the drawn-out holiday slate! We saw several underdogs win, which meant many of our stars in favorable spots wound up flopping, while other unexpected heroes rose to the top. Let's work our way into playoff form with our fantasy football waiver wire pickups lightning round heading into Week 14 of the 2025 NFL season.

This rapid reaction is brought to you for fantasy-relevant players heading into Week 14, whether you're coasting into the playoffs or fighting for those final spots. Key injuries to monitor are Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle), Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel), Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder), Justin Herbert (hand), Tyrone Tracy Jr. (hip), Parker Washington (hip), and Dylan Sampson (calf), as well as sweating returns for players such as Drake London and Omarion Hampton. Keep yourself one step ahead with our league-leading news feed bookmarked and set up for app alerts for the best and most accurate information out there!

This column will be published early in the week and will be updated daily as the site brings you in-depth waiver wire analysis for all positions. Waiver pickups are listed in priority order and broken down by position as we stick to those rostered in roughly less than 70% of Yahoo! leagues, ranging from shallow standard options to deep PPR options. Please be aware that we must now endure the final four byes of the year, with the 49ers, Giants, Panthers, and Patriots unavailable in Week 14.
