Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed is coming off a Thanksgiving night where he caught two touchdowns, and he'll look to keep that run going as the Packers head to Ford Field to take on the NFC North-leading Detroit Lions. Reed has been a volatile fantasy asset all season and his utilization has been sporadic too. One week, he's used almost exclusively at the line of scrimmage, the next week he's a deep threat. It's frustrating as a fantasy manager, but despite that, Reed has still been the most stable of the Packers' wide receivers in terms of fantasy scoring. The Lions are in the bottom-half of the NFL in terms of fantasy points allowed to wide receivers, so if I was going to hang my hat on the Packers' receiver on Thursday Night Football, it's Reed. He should be in fantasy lineups as a low-end WR2 with upside in Week 14.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft will have his work cut out for him in Week 14 as the Packers travel to Detroit to take on the division-leading Lions. Kraft has been a solidly producing fantasy tight end for much of the season and returned top-12 value at the position last week with a 6-78 line against the Miami Dolphins on Thursday Night Football. Up next are the Detroit Lions, who help Kraft in check in Week 9, to the tune of just four receptions for 34 yards. The Lions have given up the fewest fantasy points per game to the tight end position this season. If you're starting Kraft in fantasy lineups this week, you're hoping for a touchdown as a high-end streaming option.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks has a golden opportunity to produce in Week 14 as the Packers head to Ford Field to take on the Detroit Lions on Thursday Night Football. Wicks saw plenty of action in the Packers' home win against the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving night, where he earned five targets. He saw that action after Romeo Doubs (concussion) left the game and Doubs has been ruled out for this Thursday's game. On a per-route basis, Wicks has fallen off last season as he's caught just 21-of-50 targets on the season. With six teams on bye, Wicks could find his way into fantasy lineups as a low-end desperation flex in Week 14.

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates will aim to continue his strong season as the team takes on the Green Bay Packers in Week 14 on Thursday Night Football. Bates contributed nine points during Detroit's 23-20 Thanksgiving win over the Bears, converting three of four field goals while missing his first attempt of the season from 45 yards out. Despite the blemish, Bates remains one of the most consistent kickers in the league, going 19-for-20 on field goals and 44-for-45 on PATs through 12 games. The Lions' offense is the highest-scoring in the NFL, and continue to provide Bates with ample opportunities. Fantasy managers can confidently keep him in lineups. Bates is a safe, high-floor option against Green Bay.

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love has two multiple-touchdown games in a row over his last two weeks and looks to make it three in a divisional matchup with the Detroit Lions in Week 14. Love has picked up his production after a lull in Weeks 8 and 9; a Week 9 where he faced the Lions at home and had his second-worst fantasy performance of the season. Detroit has given up the fifth-fewest fantasy points to the quarterback position, and Love will have his work cut out for him in this second matchup. With Romeo Doubs (concussion) ruled out, Love will be down a receiving weapon on Thursday night, but should still be considered a borderline fantasy QB1 for this matchup.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson has been all over the map this season in terms of fantasy production, but he'll look to put his stamp on Thursday Night Football as the Packers head to Ford Field to take on the Detroit Lions. Watson's range of outcomes could be overall WR1, WR100, or anywhere in between. The main rub with Watson has been consistency, as he put up his best fantasy performance of the season in Week 11 with a 4-150 receiving line. He followed that up with 0.4 fantasy points in Week 12, then met in the middle as fantasy's WR52 against the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving night. With Romeo Doubs (concussion) ruled out, Watson should be on the field much more, but he's still a boom-or-bust flex option for fantasy managers, even with six teams on bye in Week 14.

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta will remain a focal point in Jared Goff's passing attack as the Lions gear up for a Thursday night showdown with the Packers in Week 14. LaPorta is coming off a mixed outing against Chicago, where he turned three receptions into just six yards but salvaged his fantasy value with two touchdowns. While his yardage production has dipped this seasonaveraging 35.5 yards per game compared to 52.3 as a rookieLaPorta's red-zone presence keeps him relevant in fantasy. Green Bay presents a favorable matchup for tight ends, allowing the sixth-most receptions and yards per game to the position. This could be the perfect opportunity for LaPorta to build on his 2024 campaign.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams aims to bounce back from a quiet Thanksgiving performance as Detroit hosts the Packers in Week 14. Despite seven targets against Chicago, Williams managed only 28 yards on five catches, marking just his third game this season with fewer than 50 yards. However, his consistent involvement in the passing gameseeing six or more targets in three consecutive weeksis a positive sign for fantasy managers. Additionally, Williams contributed 18 yards on two rushing attempts, showcasing his versatility. The Packers' defense has been stingy against wide receivers, allowing the eighth-fewest receptions and seventh-fewest receiving yards per game. However, Williams' growing role in Detroit's high-powered offense could provide him with opportunities to shine in this crucial NFC North battle.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown will aim to continue his steady production when Detroit hosts the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night in Week 14. St. Brown led the team in receiving during the Lions' close 23-20 Thanksgiving win over the Bears, catching five of seven targets for 73 yards. While Jared Goff looked to TE Sam LaPorta for both passing touchdowns, St. Brown remains the top option in Detroit's offense, which leads the NFL in points per game. The Packers' secondary presents a challenge, allowing the seventh-fewest receiving yards and eighth-fewest receptions to wideouts this season. However, if Jaire Alexander (knee) is limited or sidelined again, St. Brown's chances of capitalizing will significantly improve. Fantasy managers should continue treating St. Brown as a reliable WR1 despite the potentially stingy matchup.

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs will continue operating as arguably the NFL's most dangerous thunder-lightning duo as the Lions prepare for a Week 14 divisional tilt against the Packers on Thursday Night Football. Fresh off another Thursday contest, Montgomery carried the ball 21 times for 88 yards during Detroit's narrow win over the Bears on Thanksgiving Day. Montgomery's reliability in high-volume situations remains vital to Detroit's offense. Green Bay's run defense presents a challenge, ranking 8th in the league in rushing yards allowed per game (106.6). However, opportunities may still be plentiful for Montgomery, especially if Detroit leans on short passes to neutralize the Packers' front. Green Bay has allowed the eighth-most receptions and sixth-most receiving yards to running backs this season, making Montgomery a solid RB2 option with upside.

Seattle Seahawks OT Abraham Lucas (knee), DE Leonard Williams (foot), DT Jarran Reed (non-injury) and OG Laken Tomlinson (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 4. TE Brady Russell (foot), P Michael Dickson (back) and LB Ernest Jones (knee) were limited during practice. OT Stone Forsythe (hand), S AJ Finley (ankle), S Coby Bryant (ankle), LB Uchenna Nwosu (thigh) and CB Riq Woolen (ankle) fully participated in practice.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs will look to deliver a cleaner performance when the Lions face the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night in Week 14. Despite his efficiency in the Thanksgiving win over Chicagorushing for 87 yards on just nine carriesGibbs' fantasy output was dampened by a costly red-zone fumble and limited touches. He also caught two of four targets for 17 yards, ending the day with 11 total touches. This week, Gibbs will take on a Packers defense that allows the eighth most rushing yards per game but struggles against pass-catching backs, surrendering the eighth-most receptions and sixth-most receiving yards to the position. Gibbs' dual-threat ability keeps him in RB2 territory with upside, as Detroit's offense looks to remain the class of the NFC North.

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff will look to stay consistent in Week 14 as the Lions host the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night. Goff is coming off a solid performance in the Thanksgiving Day win over the Chicago Bears, where he threw for 221 yards and two touchdowns, both to Sam LaPorta. Despite the victory, the Lions' offense sputtered late, and Goff will need to bounce back against a Packers defense that allows the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to quarterbacks this season. With 22 touchdowns and nine interceptions on the year, Goff remains a reliable option for fantasy managers, especially with Detroit's potent offense. However, this week's matchup could limit his ceiling, making him a mid-tier QB2 in Week 14.

Seattle Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 4.

Fantasy Spin: Lockett has not been a big part of the passing game recently with three straight games of 20 yards or less. He likely will see a few targets this week but can be avoided in most leagues.

New Orleans Saints tight ends Juwan Johnson (foot) and Foster Moreau (shoulder) were listed on the Week 14 injury report after both were limited in the first practice of the week on Wednesday. The statuses of both Johnson and Moreau become more important for the final five games of the regular season after No. 1 TE Taysom Hill suffered a season-ending knee injury in the Week 13 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. In last Sunday's loss to LA, Johnson caught a season-high-tying five passes on a season-high seven targets for 36 yards after reaching the end zone for the second time this year in the previous game against the Cleveland Browns. Both Johnson and Moreau should be available this weekend against the New York Giants, but Johnson will be the TE to target in New Orleans as a touchdown-dependent streamer with six teams on bye in Week 14.

Los Angeles Rams TE Tyler Higbee (knee) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Dec. 4.

Fantasy Spin: Higbee is able to do everything during practice but is not expected to be available for the Week 14 game. Fantasy players can keep an eye on the situation but should look for other options to use.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (knee) was listed as a full participant in the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. Higbee, who has yet to play in 2024 due to tears in his ACL and MCL in his right knee in a playoff game on Jan. 14, also put in a full practice session last Friday. However, he's not expected to be activated off the Physically Unable to Perform list by Saturday in order to make his season debut on Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. The Rams aren't going to rush the 31-year-old veteran back, but he could make his debut next week and be eased in versus the division-rival San Francisco 49ers in Week 15 next Thursday night. Once Higbee does return, we wouldn't recommend him for starting fantasy lineups as he works alongside Davis Allen and Colby Parkinson. With receivers Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp eating up most of the targets, Rams tight ends have had little production.

From RotoBaller

The New Orleans Saints opened running back Kendre Miller's (hamstring) 21-day practice window on Wednesday to return from Injured Reserve, and he was able to put in a full practice. Miller injured his hamstring in the Week 8 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers and has missed the required four games on IR. The 22-year-old second-year back out of TCU will be eligible to return this weekend to face the New York Giants in Week 14, but it doesn't mean the Saints will rush him back. The Saints could use Miller back after just losing tight end Taysom Hill (knee) for the year. However, when Miller does return, he's likely to be eased in as the team's RB3 behind Alvin Kamara and Jamaal Williams. He's been a bust since being taken in the third round in 2023, playing in just 10 total games (two this year), averaging 4.2 yards per carry. Miller is rostered in only 3% of Yahoo leagues currently.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp (non-injury) did not participate in practice Wednesday, Dec. 4.

Fantasy Spin: Kupp was held to only 17 yards in the last game but has been targeted at least six times in every game he has played in 2024. He should see plenty of targets again this week and can be a starting option in fantasy leagues.

From TheHuddle

Los Angeles Rams WR Demarcus Robinson (hand) was limited during practice Wednesday, Dec. 4.

Fantasy Spin: Robinson has been held to under 50 yards in each of the last four games but does have a touchdown in each of the last two games. He will see a handful of targets this week if active and could be a possible flex option deeper leagues.
