Week 12 FLEX Outlooks for Fantasy Football
Jayden Reed, Green Bay Packers - Fantasy Football Outlook
Green 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.

DeAndre Hopkins, Kansas City Chiefs - Fantasy Football Outlook
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins will take on the Carolina Panthers in Week 12. Hopkins had limited success in last week's 21-30 loss to the Buffalo Bills. The veteran receiver reeled in three catches for 29 yards in the team's first loss of the season.
Hopkins will be in a more favorable matchup this week against the Panthers, who rank 12th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. The Panthers defense is much more beatable than their fantasy points allowed would suggest since most teams do not need to pass very much against them. Hopkins should be capable of producing a great fantasy performance in this week's matchup.
The 32-year-old is ranked WR23 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings this week, making him a low-end WR2/WR3 option against the Panthers. Fantasy managers should feel confident starting Hopkins in this matchup despite his inconsistent usage.

Tyrone Tracy Jr., New York Giants - Fantasy Football Outlook
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. enters Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with momentum after rushing for 103 yards in Week 10 against Carolina despite a costly fumble in overtime. Tracy has averaged 15.2 fantasy points per game since becoming the starter in Week 5, ranking as the RB22 during that span.
Facing a Buccaneers defense ranked 28th against fantasy RBs and allowing 125.2 rushing yards per game (16th in the NFL), Tracy is positioned for another productive outing. His 77% snap share in Week 10 underscores his workhorse role, and with Tampa struggling to stop the run, Tracy is a solid RB2 with upside in Week 12.
