DraftKings Daily Fantasy Football Picks (Week 14): NFL DFS Lineups

This is an intriguing slate in Week 14. With the Chiefs, Steelers, Chargers, and Saints all on the slate, there is plenty of firepower.

Evan Engram Not Worth A Fantasy Play In Week 14

Jonathan Stewart Won't Come Off Injured Reserve

New York Giants running back Jonathan Stewart (foot) will remain on Injured Reserve for the rest of the season. J-Stew had six carries for 17 yards (2.8 yards per carry) in his three games this season. He'll turn 32 next March and won't even be an attractive handcuff to Saquon Barkley in his second and […]

Sterling Shepard Not Fantasy Viable Against Redskins

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard is not worth a fantasy play in Week 14 despite a positive matchup against the Redskins. Washington's defense is allowing the fifth most fantasy points to opposing receivers this season but Shepard is averaging only 32.5 receiving yards a game over his last four played. The Redskins have […]

Barkley has posted more than 100 yards from scrimmage […]

Eli Manning Still The Starter Heading To Week 14

New York Giants head coach Pat Shurmur said "Eli's our starter" heading into Week 14 against the Redskins.
