3 days agoThe Las Vegas Raiders defense/special teams scored exactly zero points in fantasy leagues that use normal scoring rules in Week 12. There was no reason to start them in Week 12, and there was exactly zero reward for doing it. They are the second-worst fantasy defense on the season. They allowed 29 points and 325 offensive yards to the Denver Broncos while recording a single sack. Their turnover margin continues to sink. They now wear a minus-17 turnover differential badge of shame. They've recorded just five takeaways (worst in the league). Next they'll face the Kansas City Chiefs, who may have fantastic running back
Isiah Pacheco (fibula) back from injury. It could be another dismal game from a 2-9 team that has little reason to play with high effort. They won't make the playoffs.

3 days agoLas Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Tre Tucker caught seven of his eight targets against the Denver Broncos in Week 12. It was a bounce-back game for him. He had failed to gain more than 41 receiving yards in any contest since Week 3 before today. The Denver defense is typically lockdown against opposing receivers. However, Denver sold out to stop tight end
Brock Bowers from gashing them, which left much more room for the wideouts to shine. The Broncos seemed content with slowing down Las Vegas' best weapon. The offense as a whole has struggled mightily this season, though, and Tucker isn't a very good starting option in any leagues yet. It's worth stashing him on benches in very deep leagues, but this is a lost season for the Silver and Black. They'll face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13. Not a fun matchup.

3 days agoLas Vegas Raiders tight end
Brock Bowers had his second-least productive game of the season in Week 12. His team's opponent, the Denver Broncos, seemed to get the message -- slow down Bowers if you want to win. They bracketed him early and often, holding him to just four catches on his 10 targets. He gained only 38 receiving yards, his lowest total since Week 4 against the Cleveland Browns. That team has been excellent against tight ends this year as well. Sometimes bad matchups happen, but that shouldn't deter you away from the rookie in fantasy football. No serious team should bench him in fantasy football. He's a top-3 option moving forward and could still finish as the overall TE1. HIs team will face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13, and while they're a solid defense, you must start BB.

3 days agoLas Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Jakobi Meyers snagged 10 of his 15 targets for 121 receiving yards in his team's Week 12 loss to the Denver Broncos. He's proven to be a surprisingly good player for how he's perceived by the general public of NFL fans, though he's still stuck on a poor team. The Broncos defense preferred to bracket tight end
Brock Bowers, allowing Meyers to enjoy softer coverage. While Denver shuts down most receivers, the former Patriots WR has enjoyed two good games against them now. He'll face a presumably tougher test in Week 13, when he'll face the Kansas City Chiefs and likely draw the attention of elite cornerback Trent McDuffie. It won't help that he may have to catch passes from quarterback
Desmond Ridder, since the starter from Week 12,
Gardner Minshew II (collarbone), won't play again this season. He's still a must-start in PPR leagues though.

3 days agoLas Vegas Raiders quarterback
Desmond Ridder stepped in for starting QB
Gardner Minshew II (collarbone), who suffered a season-ending injury near the end of the team's Week 12 loss to the Denver Broncos. Ridder completed five of ten passes for 64 yards, carried the ball one time for three yards, and was sacked twice. He lost a fumble on one of his sacks. He only played the final 2:50 of the game, so he didn't have many chances to make an impact, as the game was out of reach at that point. But what he showed wasn't great. It's not yet known if the former Falcon will start in Week 13 --
Aidan O'Connell (thumb) remains on injured reserve with a broken thumb. The team will face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13, who've looked mortal lately, but Ridder is tough to justify starting even in 2QB/Superflex leagues.

3 days agoSan Francisco 49ers tight end
George Kittle was the only fantasy non-disappointment on his team's side of the ball during a 38-10 loss to the Packers in Green Bay on Sunday. The colorful 31-year-old scored San Francisco's only touchdown, a three-yard reception from backup quarterback
Brandon Allen in the second quarter. Including the TD, he would finish with six catches on as many targets for 82 yards. As San Francisco's most consistent fantasy asset in 2024, Kittle is leading all tight ends in half-PPR points, despite missing two games due to injury. While all other Niners offensive players struggled to produce with starting quarterback
Brock Purdy (shoulder) and left tackle Trent Williams (ankle) sidelined, Kittle once again showed out. As a result, whether San Francisco's offense is healthy or not in Week 13 at Buffalo, Kittle will remain a no-brainer fantasy start in all formats.

3 days agoLos Angeles Rams wide receiver
Demarcus Robinson caught two of his three targets for 15 yards and one touchdown during Sunday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He was one of two Rams receivers who caught a touchdown pass from
Matthew Stafford, joining
Cooper Kupp in that regard. He has been an impressive scoring threat, catching 26 passes, 384 yards, and six touchdowns through 11 games so far this season. Despite his solid stats this season, Robinson finds himself behind Kupp and
Puka Nacua, keeping him off the fantasy radar in most leagues.

3 days agoLos Angeles Rams wide receiver
Cooper Kupp caught eight of his 11 targets for 60 yards and one touchdown during Sunday night's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. His touchdown came on a 27-yard pass from
Matthew Stafford with just 72 seconds left in the fourth quarter. He now has 55 catches, 548 yards, and five touchdowns through seven games this season. Even though he has been less productive than teammate
Puka Nacua over the last few weeks, Kupp should continue to be treated as a solid WR1 option heading into next week's game against the New Orleans Saints.

3 days agoNew York Giants tight end
Theo Johnson caught three of his six targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 30-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Johnson showcased his big-play ability with a 23-yard reception, the longest play of the game for the Giants, but was otherwise limited in an offense that managed just 192 passing yards. His 5.4 fantasy points highlight the challenge of relying on him in fantasy formats, especially with inconsistent quarterback play from
Tommy Devito. While Johnson's athleticism is evident, the Giants' offensive struggles cap his potential, leaving him as a deep-league streaming option at best.

3 days agoNew York Giants wide receiver
Wan'Dale Robinson caught all five of his targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 30-7 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, averaging 9.4 yards per reception. His 16-yard longest catch was a solid contribution in a game where the Giants offense was largely ineffective, with just 192 total passing yards and a 23-0 deficit at halftime. Robinson's 7.2 fantasy points fell slightly below his season average of 8.12, reflecting the struggles of the Giants' passing game under quarterback
Tommy Devito. While Robinson's reliability in catching all his targets is encouraging, the team's offensive woes and lack of scoring opportunities make him a low-ceiling flex option in most fantasy formats.

3 days agoSan Francisco 49ers wide receiver
Jauan Jennings had a muted performance during a 38-10 loss to the Packers in Green Bay on Sunday. The 6-foot-3 former seventh-rounder caught five of seven targets for 40 yards. Except for tight end
George Kittle, San Francisco's entire offense struggled to put up numbers during a game in which they were fighting through the absence of quarterback
Brock Purdy (shoulder) and left tackle Trent Williams (ankle). On the bright side, Jennings' target total led all 49ers and he continues to out-produce both
Deebo Samuel Sr. and rookie
Ricky Pearsall. However, there is no guarantee that the 49ers will be any healthier when they play the Bills in Week 13. Jennings managers will need to monitor the status of Purdy -- and to a lesser degree, Williams -- before setting expectations for the emergent wideout in Buffalo on Sunday Night Football.
--Brad Beltz - RotoBallerSource: ESPN.COM
3 days agoLos Angeles Rams wide receiver
Puka Nacua caught nine of his 13 targets for 117 yards during Sunday's Week 12 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Nacua led the team in all three of those stats, serving as
Matthew Stafford's favorite target once again. He has 25 catches, 338 yards, and one touchdown over his last three games, ranking as the overall WR3 in PPR leagues during that span. He should be deployed as a top-five fantasy receiver heading into a Week 13 battle with the New Orleans Saints.
