1 day agoSeattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf should have a strong game in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals are a middle-of-the-road matchup for wide receivers in fantasy but Metcalf has been excellent for much of the season. He tends to also have strong showings against Arizona given that he faces them twice a year. The Seahawks moved to a more run-heavy attack in Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers. They wound up winning the game so that may be prescriptive moving forward. As such, Metcalf could see a dip in volume but he still earned nine targets in Week 11. This game should be close, but Metcalf is still in prime position to succeed as the team's No. 1 wide receiver. He should also be much healthier this week now that he is several weeks removed from his MCL sprain. Fire up Metcalf as a WR2 in Week 12.Source: RotoBaller

1 day agoSeattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is in a great position to succeed against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 12. The Cardinals are allowing 218.5 passing yards per game which is No. 21 in the league. The Seahawks were much more efficient as an offense and displayed balance in Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers. If the team made substantial changes during their Week 10 bye, then Smith should be able to take advantage of this positive matchup. The Cardinals roll into Seattle hot off a four-game winning streak and will be well-rested after a Week 11 bye. However, the Seahawks' receiving core should be fully healthy with wide receiver DK Metcalf off the injury report. Smith should be able to pass for over 200 yards and deliver a couple of touchdowns. In a week in which six teams are on a bye, Smith deserves to be in fantasy lineups.Source: RotoBaller
1 day agoSeattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III is a high-end RB2 in Week 12. The Seahawks host the Arizona Cardinals who are the No. 25 defense against opposing running backs in fantasy. Walker has been held in check of late in fantasy, but this is a great matchup for him to get things going. His volume continues to be excellent, particularly his passing game usage. It is only a matter of time before Walker begins to hit on big plays once again. As long as the Seahawks keep this game close, Walker has a chance to push for 20 carries. He should see around three targets as well. Additionally, the Seahawks made an effort to be more balanced in Week 11 after having time to evaluate their offense after their Week 10 bye. As a result, the offense was more efficient, and Walker had plenty of touches. Look for the Seahawks to strive for the same balance in Week 12 and for Walker to deliver for fantasy.Source: RotoBaller
1 day agoThe Seattle Seahawks defense/special teams showed up against a talented San Francisco 49ers offense in Week 11 but should be left on waivers in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals are No. 10 against opposing D/STs in fantasy. Their offense has been relatively inconsistent this season, but they always are a threat to score 30 or more points. The Seahawks' defense is getting healthier as the season wears on, but they are still difficult to trust in fantasy. The run defense for the Seahawks has been especially problematic and the Cardinals have the fifth-best running game in the league. The Seahawks are likely to be torn up by running backs James Conner and Trey Benson in this game. They are not worth the risk in Week 12.Source: Brady Henderson
1 day agoSeattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers could have a solid outing in Week 12 against the Arizona Cardinals. With the Seahawks likely able to move the ball well against the Cardinals, Myers should be in plenty of solid scoring positions. Myers matched his season high with 12 fantasy points against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 11. With the Seahawks looking more cohesive on offense last week, the arrow could be pointing up for Myers. Myers has connected on 14 of 17 field goals this year, including five from over 50 yards. His accuracy has not been an issue; however, his opportunities have. He should continue to display his talent this week. With six teams on a bye, Myers is a solid target as a fill-in attached to a good offense.Source: RotoBaller
1 day agoGreen Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed has been a volatile pass-catching option for the Packers but looks to be on the good side of variance as the Packers host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. Reed followed up a Week 9 where he had 113 receiving yards with a dud outing after the team's Week 10 bye. With just two receptions and 23 yards, Reed's performance was very disappointing, but at the very least, he did catch a touchdown to soften the blow. Against slot receivers, the 49ers have been incredibly stout, allowing just the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game. While Reed is the most dynamic pass-catching weapon the Packers have, he hasn't been immune to the team's offensive struggles. For Week 12, Reed is a low-end WR2 that we know has the upside for much more.Source: RotoBaller
1 day agoGreen Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (quadricep, calf) will suit up for the Packers in Week 12 after practicing in a limited fashion on Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Jacobs was left off the injury report for their matchup with the San Francisco 49ers this week, and he could have some success against a 49ers' run defense that is much more susceptible. The 49ers are just 17th in EPA per rush attempt this season and since Week 6, have the second-highest missed-tackle rate since Week 6 and a middle-of-the-road success rate allowed (13th). Jacobs has been reliant on volume for the most part and that's been readily available to him this season in Green Bay. He'll be incredibly important for the Packers if they are to have success, so Jacobs could be in line for solid production as a back end RB1 for fantasy purposes.Source: RotoBaller
1 day agoMiami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) has been removed from the team's final Week 12 injury report on Friday and will play on Sunday versus the division-rival New England Patriots at Hard Rock Stadium. Hill was limited in practice on Wednesday and Friday while being a full-go on Thursday. He's reportedly dealing with a torn wrist ligament but hasn't missed any games because of it and should be considered a must-start in fantasy lineups this weekend. The eight-time Pro Bowler has a disappointing season line to this point (44-523-3) for his standards, but he's found the end zone in each of the last two weeks and appears to be finding his rhythm with quarterback Tua Tagovailoa again. The 30-year-old speedster has a good matchup on tap against a Patriots defense that has been a top-12 matchup for receivers this year in terms of half-PPR points allowed per game.Source: MiamiDolphins.com
1 day agoGreen Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has been shaky to say the least over the past few weeks and he'll look to steady the ship as the Packers play host to the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. Love has thrown just one touchdown pass in the past three games after starting his season with five consecutive games of multiple touchdown passes. The Packers are going to need Love to find his footing if the Packers are going to make some noise in the NFC, but the 49ers represent a stiff test. San Francisco has given up the sixth-fewest passing yards per game and the fourth-least passing touchdowns allowed. Love is just a high-end QB2 this week against the 49ers but has the upside to produce in a tough matchup.Source: RotoBaller
1 day agoLos Angeles Chargers tight end Hayden Hurst (hip) was added to the Week 12 injury report on Friday and was listed as a limited practice participant. It's something to watch as the Chargers head into their final practice day of the week on Saturday. The 31-year-old won't be on the fantasy radar as a starting option if he's active on Monday night against the Baltimore Ravens, though, with Will Dissly being the clear-cut top tight end receiving option for quarterback Justin Herbert this year. Hurst has yet to find the end zone in his first season with the Bolts and only has seven reception (12 targets) for 65 yards in his seven games played. Fantasy managers should steer clear of Hurst as he faces his former team in primetime on Monday despite six teams being on bye in Week 12.Source: Los Angeles Chargers
1 day agoGreen Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has had a tough go of things over the last couple of weeks, but he looks to right the ship as the Packers square off with the visiting San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. Despite running the most routes per dropback each week for the Packers, Doubs hasn't had the production come with that time on the field as he has just seven targets, five receptions, and 45 receiving yards in his last two games. It hasn't been as fruitful of a time for the Packers' passing game as quarterback Jordan Love hasn't thrown for multiple touchdown passes in his last three games. With Doubs' falling production and the stingy 49ers pass defense set to take on the Packers, Doubs should be considered a mid-range flex play at best with a lower ceiling and a somewhat-shaky floor.Source: RotoBaller
1 day agoGreen Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson is looking to build off the best game of his 2024 season as the Packers host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. Watson amassed four receptions and 150 receiving yards and was hugely efficient for the Packers in their win over the Chicago Bears in Week 11. Besides that outburst, Watson has been kept relatively in check by defenses and hasn't been given a full complement of snaps and routes as he's rotated with Dontayvion Wicks and Jayden Reed at times. Still, Watson hasn't been able to make the most of his opportunities, which makes him a volatile fantasy asset to start. That puts Watson squarely into flex territory in a tough matchup with the 49ers in Week 12.Source: RotoBaller
1 day agoSan Francisco 49ers rookie wide receiver/kick returner Jacob Cowing (concussion) was unable to clear the league's concussion protocol and has been ruled out for Week 12 versus the Green Bay Packers. Cowing suffered his concussion in last Sunday's loss to the division-rival Seattle Seahawks and will now be hoping to clear the concussion protocol next week in order to face the Buffalo Bills in Week 13. Unexpectedly, the 23-year-old has mostly factored in on special teams (returning punts) in his first year in the NFL, despite Brandon Aiyuk (knee) being lost for the season. In nine games in 2024, the Arizona product only has two receptions on three targets for 50 yards. With Cowing out of action this Sunday at Lambeau Field, Ronnie Bell will most likely serve as the team's punt returner.Source: San Jose Mercury News - Cam Inman
