Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin has been one of the more consistent kicking options this season. Last week, McLaughlin knocked down his only field goal attempt and made three-of-four extra point kicks in the win over the New York Giants. The Bucs offense has been finding the end zone so frequently that McLaughlin hasn't needed to kick many field goals lately. In fact, McLaughlin has only five field goal attempts over his last four games. The Bucs offense should continue rolling against the Carolina Panthers in Week 13. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect a huge game from McLaughlin, but he should be able to produce enough value worth streaming him this weekend.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Ladd McConkey should have another good game in a Week 13 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. McConkey has been a top-20 fantasy wide receiver in four of his last eight games and is the overall WR31 this season. He's been putting up solid catch and yard numbers consistently, but hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 8 and has only seen two red zone targets in the last five Chargers games. This week, he'll go up against a Falcons secondary that has been below average against wide receivers all season. He should be a solid WR2 option with upside if he gets more involved in the red zone again.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Hassan Haskins could have some sneaky fantasy value in a Week 13 game against the Atlanta Falcons. With starter J.K. Dobbins (knee) out for this week, Haskins should mix in with fellow running backs Gus Edwards and Kimani Vidal. Last week, after Dobbins was forced to leave the game, Edwards played most of the early downs and Haskins played passing downs and red zone situations. Assuming Vidal is active this week, which he should be, he'll likely eat into Haskins' role, but both could still end up with some solid fantasy production especially in PPR leagues. Haskins is available for free in almost every league right now.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton was helping carry the load on offense while wide receiver Mike Evans was sidelined. Last week, Evans made his return to the field and Otton saw his workload take a significant hit. The third-year tight end was able to haul in one of his three targets for 30 yards in the win over the New York Giants. The expectation is that Otton is going to see his value decrease with Evans back in the mix. However, Otton has shown he's capable of being a legitimate contributor, so he should still remain in the offensive gameplan. Fantasy managers should expect a bounce back outing from Otton against the Carolina Panthers this weekend. Although, fantasy managers should keep their expectations in check as his eight-catch games are probably behind him now.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp gets a favorable Week 13 matchup when he squares off against the New Orleans Saints on the road. Kupp and fellow wideout Puka Nacua have been stellar in the Rams' offense since returning from their respective injuries, dominating the target share of quarterback Matthew Stafford. They'll get another opportunity to shine this weekend against a Saints defense that has been a sieve for opposing offenses -- particularly their passing attacks. New Orleans has allowed the second-most passing yards per game in the NFL through Week 12 and is giving up 37.9 fantasy points per game to wide receivers -- the sixth-highest of all squads. With his pristine role in Los Angeles' pass attack fully secured, fantasy managers can trust the 31-year-old as a top-flight option at his position. He's RotoBaller's PPR WR7 in this week's rankings.

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert is set for a good matchup in a Week 13 game against the Atlanta Falcons. Herbert ended up as the overall fantasy QB12 last week against the Ravens, giving him five straight QB1 finishes. This week is another good matchup against a Falcons defense that has allowed the eighth-most points to opposing quarterbacks. With starting running back J.K. Dobbins (knee) out for this game, the Chargers offense will likely rely on Herbert's arm a bit more, but we may see him work in a few more rushing attempts as well. All in all, Herbert is shaping up as a top-half QB1 this week.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans made his return to the field during last week's game against the New York Giants. Evans looked solid as he hauled in five of his six targets for 68 yards in the win. It didn't appear that Evans and quarterback Baker Mayfield lost any chemistry during the three-game absence. Fantasy managers should expect Evans to be the primary focus in the passing game especially with Chris Godwin (ankle) sidelined. That means, Evans should see a heavy usage which is good news heading into a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Fantasy managers should go ahead and plug in Evans as a WR1 for this weekend.

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams will square off with a vulnerable New Orleans Saints defense this Sunday in a road tilt. The Notre Dame alum got back into the end zone in Week 12's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles after no such trips in his previous three outings. Curiously, he did not record a target for the second consecutive contest. He could find trouble in that aspect again when he lines up against a Saints defense that has limited running backs to 44 receptions in 2024 -- the eleventh-fewest in the league. However, New Orleans allows 134.2 yards on the ground per game to opposing rushing attacks -- the ninth-most in the NFL -- and an average of 5.0 yards per carry, the second-highest. Fantasy managers can confidently rely on Williams as a locked-in RB1, and he ranks as RotoBaller's PPR RB9 ahead of Week 13.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards is expected to get the start in a Week 13 game against the Atlanta Falcons. Edwards spent some time on IR this season, but even when healthy, he's played mostly a depth role behind starter J.K. Dobbins (knee). With Dobbins out this week though, Edwards should get bumped up to the starting role, at least on clear rushing downs. He's not a factor in the passing game, so his usage will be somewhat game script dependent, and he may need to find the end zone in order to put up a significant fantasy score. Last week, after Dobbins was injured, Edwards played a lot of early downs, but Hassan Haskins was in for passing plays and red zone drives. Edwards is a risky play with a somewhat high floor but not a high ceiling.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard was expected to take a backseat in the passing game last week. However, Shepard actually saw a season-high seven targets during the win over the New York Giants. He hauled in five of those targets for 16 yards, which is a bummer for fantasy managers. The return of fellow wideout Mike Evans will likely take away most of the fantasy value from Shepard. For now, fantasy managers can keep Shepard as a low-end flex option because the seven targets is a promising look. However, there should be better options available to stream ahead of Sunday's Week 13 games. Shepard might be able to surprise everyone against a struggling Carolina Panthers defense.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White has been unable to find much success on the ground this season. Luckily, White has been able to find the end zone in each of his last five games. The 25-year-old is starting to become a touchdown-dependent option with the way he's looking on the ground. Last week, White rushed 12 times for 37 yards with one score in the win over the New York Giants. He did very little through the air with only one reception for 10 yards. The return of wide receiver Mike Evans will likely take away some of White's targets going forward. That being said, White could be a bit of a shaky fantasy option down the stretch of the season. However, fantasy managers shouldn't have to worry too much yet with a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers this weekend. White should be able to produce in that game and offer low-end RB2 value.

New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin heads out of his bye to face off against the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 13. Conklin has been one of the main Jets pass catchers negatively affected by the trade that brought Davante Adams to the team as he has just 10 catches in the five games since the latter joined the team. The Seahawks represent a decent matchup for tight ends as they are allowing the 13th-most fantasy points per game to the position but Conklin isn't a big enough piece of the offense to take advantage of this in fantasy. He settles in as a low-end TE3 in fantasy and should not be in consideration for starting lineups this weekend.

From RotoBaller

New York Jets kicker Anders Carlson comes out of his bye to kick against the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 13. Carlson, who has appeared in one game for New York this season, made both of his field-goal attempts in a loss to the Indianapolis Colts. The Seahawks have been stingy against kickers this season, allowing the 25th-most fantasy points per game to the position thus far. Carlson is not a recommended fantasy option heading into Week 13 against Seattle.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving posted arguably his best performance of the season against the New York Giants last week. Irving rushed for a season-high 88 yards and found the end zone as well. He also set career highs in receptions with six and 64 additional yards through the air in the win. The 22-year-old continues to earn himself a bigger role on the team with the way he's looking on the field. It's worth noting that he's still sharing carries with Rachaad White in the backfield. Despite that, Irving should be able to produce RB2 value in a favorable matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Baker Mayfield (neck) is good to go after getting a little banged up at the end of last week's win over the New York Giants. The 29-year-old is fine now and is ready to for a divisional matchup against the Carolina Panthers this weekend. Last week, Mayfield completed 24-of-30 passing attempts for 294 yards, but didn't throw a touchdown or interception. Mayfield did find his way to the end zone on the ground, which helped his fantasy value. The expectation is that Mayfield should be in for a strong performance against a struggling Panthers secondary. Mayfield has been an elite fantasy option throughout most of the season so fantasy managers need to keep riding with him.

From RotoBaller

New York Jets wide receiver Davante Adams comes off his bye week to take on the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 13. Adams has been playing well for the Jets of late, posting 19 catches for 193 yards and one touchdown on 31 targets over his past three contests. The veteran wideout draws a decent matchup against a Seattle defense that is allowing the 16th-most fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts this season. Adams checks in as a mid-range WR2 in fantasy this weekend.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is presented with an exploitable matchup this Sunday when he lines up against the New Orleans Saints. The second-year wideout has been on fire since returning from an IR stint in Week 8. Over that stretch, Nacua is the overall WR7 in PPR formats, recording four games of at least seven receptions and 98 or more receiving yards. He'll get an excellent opportunity to continue his hot streak in Week 13 in a Saints defense that ranks second to last in yards allowed per game (390.8). The Saints let up 256.6 of those yards through the air, the third-most per contest in the NFL. With the 23-year-old playing at a high level and a blow-up spot ahead of him, the BYU product ranks as RotoBaller's PPR WR5 ahead of this Sunday's slate.

From RotoBaller

Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers has been inconsistent for fantasy in 2024. After a huge 12-point outing in Week 11, Myers followed it up with a six-point outing in Week 12. The Seahawks' offense has been in scoring positions all season, but Myers has not reaped the benefits with field goals. The Seahawks hit the road for a tilt against the New York Jets in Week 13. The Seahawks defense should hold the Jets to a relatively low score and the offense could look to slow the game down and control the pace. Myers projects to hit a few kicks this week, but he is unlikely to be a significant contributor in fantasy. With no teams on a bye in Week 13, there are going to be plenty of kickers to choose from. As such, Myers is not worth the risk of starting in Week 13.

From RotoBaller

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen comes out of his bye to face off against the Seattle Seahawks at home in Week 13. Allen has been mostly phased out of the team's offense of late as he has just 13 total carries over his last three contests. That being said, Breece Hall (knee) is listed as questionable with a knee injury for Week 13's contest. While recent reports are that Hall is expected to play, Allen is worth a look as a potential lead back in case Hall has a setback and ultimately doesn't end up taking the field. If Hall does end up playing, Allen won't be startable in fantasy but he needs to be rostered as a high-end handcuff nonetheless.

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (groin) will be back in the Seahawks' lineup in Week 13. Fant was almost good to go in Week 12 but was ultimately made inactive. Fant will play in his first game since Week 8. Fant's return will relegate tight end AJ Barner to a backup role once again and give Seattle another weapon in the passing game. Fant had not been much of a fantasy contributor prior to his injury, and he will now be matched up against the No. 5 defense against opposing tight ends in fantasy when the Seahawks visit the New York Jets this week. With DK Metcalf (shoulder) and Tyler Lockett (knee) banged up, Fant's return could not have come sooner. However, with both players good to go in Week 13, Fant is unlikely to be a very good fantasy option coming off a multiple-week injury.
