Andy's potential Week 14 busts, fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for players who may disappoint. You should consider benching these players in Week 14.
The fantasy playoffs are officially just one week away. As a result, getting those lineups correct is even more crucial as it could be the difference between you clinching a spot in the postseason or falling just short of the last wildcard.
In this piece, we will identify four lineup regulars (one at each position) who may be best off staying on the bench in the final week of the fantasy regular season.
Who should fantasy managers bench in Week 14? Let's dive in!

Potential Fantasy Football Lineup Busts
QB Jacoby Brissett (ARI) vs. LAR
With Kyler Murray (foot) set to miss another game on the IR, veteran Jacoby Brissett will once again lead the Arizona offense. As the replacement, Brissett has been a viable QB1 in all formats, averaging an impressive 25.6 PPR points per game through seven games of action. He has been given an ample volume (43.0 attempts per game) and has racked up yards at an impressive rate, averaging a hefty 312.6 yards per game.
However, managers should take caution streaming him this weekend. On Sunday, he will face a potent Rams defense that has allowed the 12th-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs this season. While they had a modest showing last weekend against Carolina, expect a major bounce-back for this top unit.

RB Woody Marks (HOU) at KC
Even though Marks had a brief exit during Sunday's contest due to a foot injury, the rookie continued to lead the Houston backfield. In this contest, Marks took 19 carries for 64 yards and brought in his lone target for three yards. Since Week 11, Marks has averaged 17.7 attempts per game and has seen one target per game as well.
Even though he enters Week 14 as a clear RB1 over the veteran Nick Chubb, given that Chubb has logged less than 30% of the snaps in all but one of his last three, Marks is still a risky RB2 this weekend. On Sunday, he will face the Kansas City Chiefs, who have shut down several top RBs. They enter Week 14 allowing the sixth-fewest PPR points per gam to the position.
Managers who have alternate RB2s should pivot elsewhere this weekend. Marks will be extremely touchdown-dependent on Sunday. If he cannot find the back of the end zone, expect a single-digit PPR showing.
WR Xavier Worthy (KC) vs. HOU
I would also suggest sitting another player in this matchup. Xavier Worthy has been a WR3 in most weeks but began to show flashes of his rookie self on Thanksgiving. During their loss to the Cowboys, Worthy brought in four of his six targets for 61 yards.

He has now eclipsed the 55-yard mark in back-to-back games and has seen at least six targets in these games. However, he will now line up against a Houston secondary that has shut down opposing wideouts, surrendering the third-fewest PPR points to the position.
Given that they just held Michael Pittman Jr. to one catch last weekend, Worthy is a high-risk boom-or-bust FLEX play. Managers with WR3s that carry a high floor should pivot to them instead.
TE Colston Loveland (CHI) at GB
The rookie tight end has slowly begun to earn the trust of fantasy managers, but faces a tough task in the final week of the fantasy regular season. This weekend, Loveland will face a surging Green Bay defense that has allowed the 12th-fewest PPR points to opposing TEs.
Since Week 9, the Michigan product has begun to carve out a role, despite sharing targets with DJ Moore, Rome Odunze, and Luther Burden III. During this five-game stretch, Loveland has seen 5.2 targets per game and is averaging 13.4 PPR points per game. However, his matchup is too risky to trust, especially if this is a "win or go home" situation for managers.
