On Thursday, we've got a three-game NFL slate for Thanksgiving. That means you'll need to make your start/sit decisions even earlier than usual.
Three players you might be curious about on Thursday are Tua Tagovailoa, Jordan Love, and Jayden Reed.
Should you start Tua Tagovailoa, Jordan Love, and Jayden Reed in fantasy leagues in Week 13?
Should I Start Tua Tagovailoa for Fantasy Football?
Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins take on the Green Bay Packers on Thursday in Green Bay. Tagovailoa is coming off a strong showing last week against the Patriots, throwing a season-high four touchdowns and finishing as the overall QB3.
That performance gives Tagovailoa seven touchdown passes over the past two games. However, he only has six touchdowns in all the other games he's played, and his first three games post-injury saw him finish as the QB22, QB19, and QB22.

These last two games have raised expectations for Tagovailoa, but in a week where the entire league is in action, he only ranks as a solid QB2 play.
Should I Start Jordan Love for Fantasy Football?
Jordan Love and the Green Bay Packers are at home on Thursday to face the Miami Dolphins. Jordan Love is coming off a game last week where he was 13-f0r-23 for 163 yards and two touchdowns, finishing as the overall QB16.
After a strong start to the year where he finished as a fantasy QB1 in four of his first five starts, Love has faded a bit, with two finishes outside the top 20 in the last four games.
In Jordan Love’s last 17 starts:
- 12-5 record
- 26.2 ppg
- 36 TD passes (3 rushing)
- 12 INTs (21 sacks)
- 4394 passing yards (7.9 YPA)
- 102.4 QB rating pic.twitter.com/cTloFimoH1— Bay of Cheese 🧀 (@LeroyLeap) November 25, 2024
Love's recent struggles make him a mid-range QB2 play on Thursday.
Should I Start Jayden Reed for Fantasy Football?
The Green Bay Packers will be without Romeo Doubs this week, putting wide receiver Jayden Reed in solid shape for a strong showing.
Feels like we're getting a Jayden Reed spike week on Thanksgiving.
No Romeo Doubs, plus a matchup vs a pass-funnel Dolphins defense that has given up production in the slot. pic.twitter.com/S8DHBTtPkp

While Reed has struggled to make much impact lately and is averaging just 2.5 receptions per game since the Week 10 bye, he remains a high-end WR3 with upside in Week 13.
