Buffalo Bills tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring, knee) is officially active for Sunday's Week 14 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity. Kincaid returns from a three-game absence and will reclaim his role atop the depth chart. He has a fantastic opportunity to produce this week against a Bengals team that has been historically poor when defending opposing tight ends. In fact, the Bengals have allowed the most catches, receiving yards, touchdowns, and fantasy points to tight ends in 2025. Assuming Kincaid is healthy enough to handle a full or near-full workload, he'll be a mid-range TE1 with high-end upside. He's not a lock to play a full dose of snaps, but even if he's limited, this matchup is too favorable not to take advantage of. Kincaid should be started in all fantasy leagues.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said that he would not be surprised if the Minnesota Vikings brought in a veteran quarterback next season to enhance their QB room and "maybe push J.J. McCarthy a little bit." After moving on from Sam Darnold following a career-best season in 2024, the Vikings added veteran Carson Wentz as insurance behind McCarthy to begin the 2025 campaign. Wentz suffered a season-ending shoulder surgery, leaving undrafted rookie Max Brosmer as the backup for McCarthy. Brosmer was forced into action in Week 13 against Seattle after McCarthy suffered a concussion, and he had a disastrous four-interception performance last weekend. McCarthy missed his entire rookie season in 2024 following knee surgery, and he has mostly struggled in his first six NFL starts, completing 54.1% of his 159 pass attempts for 929 yards, six touchdowns, and 10 interceptions. If McCarthy continues to struggle to close out 2025, he might not be a lock for the starting QB job going into the 2026 season.

Philadelphia Eagles right tackle Lane Johnson (foot) did not practice on Saturday, and he has been ruled out ahead of Monday's Week 14 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. Johnson has allowed seven hurries and zero sacks in 2025, serving as a key protector for Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley, and the entire Eagles offense. Week 14 is the first time he has completely missed a game this year, leaving Fred Johnson in line to step up as Philadelphia's starting right tackle.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce's strong season continues with a favorable matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 14. The 25-year-old is this year's WR41 with 33 catches, 689 yards, and two touchdowns, but he has come on particularly strong lately with an average of 13.5 fantasy points per game (PPR) over his last six contests. He has established himself as Daniel Jones' second-favorite target behind Michael Pittman Jr., though we also have to factor in the strong presence of Jonathan Taylor, who commands heavy volume on the ground. Still, despite losing opportunities to Pittman and Taylor, Pierce is having the best season of his young career and continues to find himself on the fantasy radar every week. This week, he ranks as the WR33 in RotoBaller's fantasy rankings, making him a strong WR3/flex in most leagues. He also gets a relatively favorable matchup against the Jaguars, who have allowed the 15th-most fantasy points and 11th-most touchdowns to wide receivers in 2025.

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai remains the No. 2 option on the depth chart behind D'Andre Swift, but he should still be viewed as a high-end RB3/flex with additional upside heading into Sunday's Week 14 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. The Bears have emerged as a run-heavy offense, allowing both Monangai and Swift to carry fantasy relevance in any given week. Now, with wide receiver Rome Odunze (foot) inactive, Chicago may be more motivated than ever to run the football early and often. Monangai handled 22 carries last week, and we would not be surprised to see him register at least another 15-20 rushing attempts this week. A matchup against the Packers' run defense isn't ideal, but Monangai's impressive efficiency so far this year (4.88 YPC) should be enough to counteract the effect of Green Bay's defense. He ranks as the overall RB25 in this week's RotoBaller fantasy rankings.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Luther Burden III will step into the No. 2 receiver role against the Green Bay Packers with Rome Odunze (foot) sidelined. This elevated role comes at an opportune time for the rookie, who had already been seeing his workload steadily increase. With both DJ Moore and Odunze on the field over the last four weeks, Burden totaled 19 targets, 13 catches, and 157 yards. Now that Odunze is sidelined, he should handle even greater volume. The Bears are a run-first offense, so it's not guaranteed that Moore or Burden will break out this week. However, if there's a time for it to happen, it will be with Odunze inactive. Burden, a Missouri product, ranks as the overall WR36 in RotoBaller's Week 14 fantasy rankings. He should be deployed as a low-end WR3/flex against a Green Bay defense that allowed over 300 passing yards to Detroit in Week 13.

There is a possibility that Tampa Bay Buccaneers WR Mike Evans (collarbone) could play in Week 15's game versus the Atlanta Falcons Thursday, Dec. 11, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. If he is not ready to return by then, it appears realistic that he could play in Week 16 against the Carolina Panthers.

Fantasy Spin: Evans has been sidelined since Week 7, when he sustained a broken clavicle in the game against the Detroit Lions. He participated in all three of Tampa Bay's practice sessions on a limited basis over the past week and can be considered a flex candidate for fantasy leagues upon his return to action.

New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) has been sidelined since Week 10 with relatively few updates on his status. Now, despite the Jets trending toward missing the playoffs, Connor Hughes of SNY speculates that Wilson will be activated and will return to the lineup before the end of the regular season. When explaining his belief that Wilson will play again this year, Hughes cited the receiver's desire to contribute. "Garrett is such a different guy," Hughes said. "He wants to win so bad, and he wants to be on the field so bad that when he is healthy and he can clear and pass all the tests, I don't see the Jets being able to keep Garrett out of the lineup. He is going to want to be out there, and the Jets are ultimately going to have to put him back out there." The exact timetable for Wilson's return is unclear, but presumably, he'll be back for some or all of the fantasy football playoffs. He should benefit from having Tyrod Taylor under center, as his best game of the season came with the veteran quarterback throwing him passes. That happened back in Week 3, and Wilson caught 10 passes for 84 yards and one touchdown. Upon his return, Wilson will rank as a low-end WR1 in fantasy football.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden (wrist) carries a questionable tag into Sunday's Week 14 matchup against the Chicago Bears. Golden has been limited in practice all week due to a lingering wrist issue. He has missed the last two games due to the injury, but is hopeful of playing on Sunday. When healthy, Golden hasn't been much of an asset for fantasy managers lately. The rookie wideout has been held to under 40 receiving yards in each of his last four games. He played a season-low 35 percent of the offensive snaps during his latest appearance in Week 11. His role is expected to be reduced with Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) making his return from the IR. Golden isn't someone who should be trusted for Week 14 outside of deep leagues.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson has been on a tear lately, and he should continue to be quite productive during Sunday's Week 14 contest against the Chicago Bears. Specifically, Watson has 13 catches, 175 yards, and three touchdowns over his last three games, ranking as the WR10 in half-PPR leagues during that span. Although Watson will find himself with a little more competition this week after the Packers activated Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder), he should still be started in most leagues. It appears that Watson has established himself as Jordan Love's favorite target, which bodes well for his volume and productivity against a Bears defense that has allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. Watson ranks as the overall WR24 in RotoBaller's Week 14 fantasy rankings. He should be started in all leagues.

From RotoBaller

Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant is starting to finally get more involved in the offense. Over the last two games, Bryant has hauled in eight receptions for 124 yards. He has finished with 40 or more receiving yards in four of his last five games. The rookie wideout is becoming a more trustworthy option Denver's offense. He played a season-high 70 percent of the offensive snaps during last week's win over the Washington Commanders. Given his success, Bryant continues to be more involved in the offense. Bryant is still the third or fourth option in the receiving game, which doesn't offer great weekly value. He should be viewed as a low-end flex option for the upcoming Week 14 matchup versus the Las Vegas Raiders.

From RotoBaller

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth continues to play less than half of the offensive snaps, and he seems to be third on the tight end pecking order behind both Darnell Washington and Jonnu Smith. Freiermuth was held without a target last Sunday, and he has a modest seven catches over his last four games. The 27-year-old ranks as the overall TE24 so far this season, and his fantasy value has been largely dependent on scoring touchdowns. He has exceeded 6.5 fantasy points (PPR) just three times this year, and it happened in the three games where he scored at least one touchdown. His chances of getting back on track this week are very slim as he takes on the Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore has played strong defense against tight ends in 2025, allowing the seventh-fewest fantasy points to the position. Freiermuth ranks as the overall TE30 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy rankings. He can be avoided in most leagues during Week 14.

From RotoBaller

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten experienced a breakout performance during the Week 11 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers. The rookie back rushed 15 times for 74 yards and a touchdown during the victory. Outside of that, Tuten has been held to under 45 rushing yards in every other game. He remains the No. 2 option with Travis Etienne Jr. leading the way. The 23-year-old is set to back up Etienne once again in Sunday's matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Most weeks, Tuten doesn't even see 30 percent of the offensive snaps. However, the forecast for Jacksonville calls for heavy rain, so Tuten could see more opportunities as the Jaguars might lean on the run more with inclement weather. Tuten hasn't been consistent enough to trust yet and is a low-end flex option in Week 14.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans (collarbone) appears to be on the verge of returning to game action. Evans has been sidelined since breaking his collarbone in Week 7. Before that, Evans missed three games due to a hamstring injury. The veteran wideout hasn't really made an impact on the field since Week 3. He returned to practice this week but was already ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Evans is pushing to suit up for next week's Thursday Night matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. His return would be a significant boost for Tampa Bay's offense down the stretch of the season. If he's not able to play on Thursday, Evans would more than likely return versus the Carolina Panthers in Week 16. Fantasy managers should continue to stash Evans as he's expected to return for the fantasy playoffs. Emeka Egbuka, Chris Godwin Jr., and Tez Johnson will continue to see an increase in targets while Evans remains out.

From RotoBaller

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Jermaine Burton (undisclosed) has been ruled out for the upcoming Week 14 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Burton didn't travel with the team, and his absence from this contest is non-injury related. The second-year wideout hasn't played this season and isn't guaranteed to suit up at all in 2025. Burton hauled in four receptions for 107 yards and was held out of the end zone in 14 games during his rookie campaign. He's too far down on the depth chart to likely make an impact even if an injury happens. Burton is mainly a dynasty stash but doesn't carry much value with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins being the focal points in the Bengals' receiving game.

From RotoBaller

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) has possibly already taken his last snap this season. Benson has been working his way back from a knee injury he suffered in Week 4 that landed him on injured reserve. He had his practice window opened two weeks ago, logging a few limited sessions before not practicing last week. Per the rules, Benson must be activated within the 21-day window to play again this season. If not, he will remain on injured reserve. Time is running out for Benson to return, as he will need to be activated by next week to play again this year. Fantasy managers with an IR spot should continue to stash Benson until he's officially ruled out for the year. Bam Knight, Michael Carter, and Emari Demercado (ankle) will likely continue to split up the carries in the backfield with Benson sidelined.

From RotoBaller

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III has been able to rank as an RB2 in fantasy football despite sharing touches with Zach Charbonnet, and that trend should continue in Week 14 against the Atlanta Falcons. Walker has been impressive lately, tallying double-digit fantasy points (PPR) in each of his last three games. During that three-week span, he has 40 carries, 194 rushing yards, nine catches, 92 receiving yards, and one touchdown. He has consistently played around 55% to 60% of the offensive snaps, leaving roughly 10 touches and a snap share around 40% for Charbonnet. The two have shown that they can co-exist, with Walker still being the preferred option out of the backfield. This week, he can be a strong RB2 option against a Falcons defense that has allowed the 12th-most fantasy points to running backs in 2025. Walker ranks as the overall RB18 in RotoBaller's latest rankings for Week 14. He should be started with confidence in most leagues.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (foot, shoulder) has been activated from injured reserve and will play in Week 14 against the Chicago Bears, instantly putting him back on the fantasy radar for the final stretch of the 2025 season. Reed has been sidelined since Week 2, when he only played a handful of snaps before getting injured. His performance in the season opener was impressive, as he caught three passes for 45 yards and a touchdown in Week 1. The biggest obstacle between Reed and a fantasy-relevant role is Christian Watson, who has 13 catches, 175 yards, and two touchdowns over his last three games. Aside from Watson, though, players like Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden, and Dontayvion Wicks don't pose a major threat of competition to Reed. In his first game back, he'll get a juicy matchup against the Bears, who have allowed the fifth-most fantasy points and third-most receiving touchdowns to wide receivers in 2025. Reed could be deployed as a low-end WR3/flex in most fantasy leagues.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore continues to be an inconsistent fantasy football option. He ranks as the overall WR37 in PPR leagues so far, failing to establish himself as a truly reliable fantasy receiver despite previous optimism that he would be the Bears' top receiver in 2025 and beyond. The 28-year-old had a 64-yard, two-touchdown performance a couple of weeks ago, but aside from that big game, he has been a significant disappointment. With that said, he does have a chance to bounce back on Sunday in Week 14 against the Green Bay Packers, who most recently surrendered 309 passing yards to Detroit. Moore could still capitalize on this matchup and, thus, should be started as an RB3/flex. RotoBaller's Week 14 fantasy rankings have Moore listed as the WR34.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Xavier Weaver (hamstring) is expected to be inactive for Sunday's home matchup with their division-rival Los Angeles Rams. The second-year pro was a midweek addition to Arizona's practice report, with his status declining from a limited session on Thursday to a DNP on Friday. Now, labeled questionable, Weaver doesn't appear to be in line to suit up against the visiting Rams. With the news, Arizona's WR corps is alarmingly depleted, considering teammates Marvin Harrison Jr. (heel) and Greg Dortch (chest) have already been ruled out for the contest. As it stands, Michael Wilson, Trent Sherfield Sr., Andre Baccellia, and Jalen Brooks are the only active wideouts without a designation heading into this weekend's bout.
