The Pittsburgh Steelers' defense surrendered 32 points to the Cincinnati Bengals but recorded four sacks, two forced fumbles, an interception, and a defensive touchdown in a 44-38 victory. Although Cincinnati had no issues moving the ball and scoring on Sunday, Pittsburgh's star defensive players stepped up to make plays in crucial moments. T.J. Watt and Cameron Heyward combined for three sacks while Payton Wilson and Nick Herbig worked in tandem on the fumble recovery for a touchdown that gave the Steelers a 16-point advantage early in the fourth quarter. The Steelers DST continues to be a reliable fantasy option, even against potent offenses. It can be trusted in fantasy lineups of all shapes and sizes next week against the Cleveland Browns.

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen carried the ball five times for 11 yards and added two catches for 16 yards in a 26-21 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13. With Breece Hall nursing a knee injury heading into the game, Allen turned in his most productive game in the passing attack since late September while the normally productive Hall failed to catch his lone target. Allen remains a high-end handcuff in fantasy but he continues to have very little standalone value with Hall active. That being said, he needs to stay rostered in all fantasy leagues in case Hall's knee injury becomes more of an issue late in the season. Allen will take on the Miami Dolphins in Week 14.

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson caught 3-of-6 targets for 28 yards in Sunday's 23-22 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. It was a quiet day for the Iowa alum, registering his third outing of fewer than 30 receiving yards in his first five games back from injury. Minnesota generally had no issue moving the ball against the Cardinals this afternoon. However, Hockenson wasn't deployed much outside of the short passing game. It's a disappointment for fantasy managers relying on him, though a silver lining is that his target total was tied for second on the team with wide receiver Jordan Addison. He'll look to rebound next week when his team takes on the visiting Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons D is letting up a robust number of yards through the air in 2024 (229.9) and 12.7 fantasy points per game to the TE position.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (knee) won't return to Sunday's game against the Eagles. The 25-year-old entered Week 13 by catching a touchdown in two of the last three games. However, he'll finish this one without making any statistical contributions. Fortunately, the Ravens are off in Week 14, so he'll have more time to recover. But until he's back on the field, Zay Flowers and Mark Andrews should benefit the most.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison brought in 4-of-6 targets for 54 yards in Week 13's 23-22 win over the Arizona Cardinals. Addison's targets, reception total, and yardage output were all good for second on the team behind superstar wideout Justin Jefferson (7/99). While it wasn't anything eye-popping, it's the second-year WRs fifth straight outing with at least five targets. It will be difficult for him to consistently put together monster stat lines, as he did back in Week 12 (8/162/1). Still, he's a quality WR2 for an NFL squad and should continue to see a good amount of looks while in the lineup. He'll get a soft spot in Week 14 against an Atlanta Falcons defense that allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to wide receivers (421.6) through 11 games.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall carried the ball 12 times for 60 yards and failed to catch his lone target in a 26-21 loss to the Seattle Seahawks in Week 13. He also converted a two-point conversion and lost a fumble in the outing. Hall turned in a quiet outing in yet another disappointing loss for the Jets, who led 14-0 after the first quarter. He dealt with a knee injury throughout the week before ultimately taking the field in Week 13, but he surprisingly failed to make an impact in the passing game, an aspect of his game that has carried many of his fantasy performances this season. Hall will look to regroup heading into a Week 14 matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell connected on three of his four field goal attempts and drilled all five of his extra-point tries in a 44-38 victory over the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals. Boswell was good from 50, 34, and 30 yards out, but unfortunately had a 42-yard attempt blocked by the Bengals in the third quarter. Still, Boswell was excellent for fantasy purposes as Pittsburgh's offense had no trouble moving the football and managed to find the end zone four times. With how dominant Boswell has been this season, fantasy managers need to keep him locked into starting lineups regardless of his opponent. That said, he'll face a difficult Cleveland Browns defense in Week 14.

The Los Angeles Chargers defense had an excellent game in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. The Bolts scored a defensive touchdown on a pick-six, one of four interceptions they recorded in a dominant performance. Tarheeb Still made two picks and scored the touchdown, and Marcus Maye and Derwin James had one pick each. The defense also recorded one sack for an 11-yard loss and allowed just 13 points, all good for a standard league fantasy score of 17. They're likely to land as the top scoring defense in fantasy leagues this week, but they have a harder challenge coming up in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman (wrist) won't play on Sunday night against the 49ers. The wideout has missed the last two games. While he's making progress, the team will play it safe by keeping him off the field for the snowy encounter versus San Francisco. Of course, without Coleman and Dalton Kincaid (knee), Amari Cooper, Mack Hollins, and Khalil Shakir could see more attention from Josh Allen. James Cook may also get a few more touches, with Dawson Knox also in line to log additional snaps.

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones rushed five times for 22 yards in Sunday's 23-22 win over the Arizona Cardinals -- adding another six yards and a touchdown on 3-of-4 receiving. He'd also fumble twice, losing one of them. It wasn't the 29-year-old's most memorable performance, as he easily set new lows in rushing and receiving while matching his fewest touch count of the season. Jones also fumbled on the first play of each of the Vikings' first two possessions -- his third straight game with a fumble. However, he'd somewhat save his day with a late five-yard touchdown grab that ultimately sealed the victory for his squad. The eighth-year back will get a chance to redeem himself next Sunday when he lines up against the visiting Atlanta Falcons.

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer made just one catch in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Palmer saw just one target thrown his way and turned it into an 11-yard catch. Those 11 yards were good enough for third on the team in receiving yards in a game where the Chargers pass game focused in on rookie Ladd McConkey (knee). Palmer should see at least a few more targets next week against the Kansas City Chiefs, especially if McConkey is forced to miss time.

From RotoBaller

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson reeled in 7-of-9 targets for 99 yards in his team's 23-22 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13. The fifth-year wideout was held to just two receptions and 32 yards during the first two frames as Minnesota's drives stalled near Arizona's red zone. He came alive in the second half, though, commanding another seven targets and drawing a 28-yard pass interference penalty. His highlight of the day was a 30-yard catch-and-run early in the fourth quarter that put him over 1,000 yards on the season -- making him just the fourth player in NFL history to amass at least 1,000 receiving yards in each of their first five seasons. Incredible. Jefferson has a favorable matchup on tap in Week 14. He'll get an Atlanta Falcons squad that gave up an average of 38.3 fantasy points per game to the wide receiver position heading into this weekend -- the fifth-most in the NFL.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers linebacker K.J. Britt (ankle) exited Sunday's game against the Panthers. He is questionable to return. The 25-year-old entered Week 13 ranked third on the team in total tackles. He has also played in 566 of the snaps on the defensive end, one of the highest on the team. With Tampa struggling versus Carolina, the Bucs need him back on the field as soon as possible. But until that happens, Anthony Nelson and J.J. Russell could see more action.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Will Dissly put up a zero in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Dissly was on the injury report earlier in the week with a groin injury, but he practiced in full on Friday and came into the game with no injury designation. Still, he ended up with only one target thrown his way and was unable to make a catch on the play. The shutout was unexpected, as Dissly has been a high-floor tight end option most of the season, but the Chargers passing game went almost exclusively through Ladd McConkey. McConkey made nine catches while no one else on the Chargers made more than two. It was likely an anomaly, and as long as he's healthy, Dissly should return to his solid, reliable production next week against the Kansas City Chiefs.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker made all three of his field goal tries in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Dicker did not get a chance to attempt any extra points. His three field goals came from 45, 51, and 34 yards out. It was another solid and predictably consistent performance from one of the NFL's most reliable kickers. He should once again be near the top of the kicker ranks in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Kimani Vidal recorded four carries in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Active for the first time since Week 8, Vidal played alongside nominal starter Gus Edwards with J.K. Dobbins (knee) on IR. Vidal ended up gaining 20 yards with his four carries, most of it on a solid 16-yard run. He wasn't targeted in the passing game. His role could grow as the Chargers will need some different looks out of the backfield next week against the Kansas City Chiefs.

From RotoBaller

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren turned three carries into nine yards and gained 55 yards on four receptions in a Week 13 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. Warren, who out-snapped and outproduced Najee Harris last week, took a backseat on Sunday but still was effective as a weapon in the passing game. He has looked explosive when given opportunities, but with Cordarelle Patterson mixing in for six touches this week, it's difficult to predict what Pittsburgh's backfield rotation will look like moving forward. Warren is worth rostering in most formats but should only be viewed as a flex option in PPR leagues next week against the Cleveland Browns.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston made two catches in a 17-13 Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Johnston was second on the team in targets with four, catches with two, and receiving yards with 12. It was the Ladd McConkey show (nine catches on 12 targets for 117 yards), so other Bolts relievers didn't get too many chances even though McConkey was forced to leave the game early with a knee injury. Johnston's role would obviously grow significantly if McConkey is forced to miss time, but he'll still be a risky fantasy option in Week 14 against the Kansas City Chiefs.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert game managed his way to a 17-13 win over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 13. Herbert didn't put up a strong fantasy performance despite a good matchup, but despite the close final score, the Chargers seemed mostly in control throughout the game. Herbert ended up attempting 23 passes, completing 16 of them for 147 yards. He took five sacks, losing 19 yards, but didn't throw any touchdowns or interceptions. On the ground, Herbert turned five "carries" into one total yard. The Bolts will face the Chiefs in Week 14, where Herbert will almost certainly have to do a lot more.

From RotoBaller

Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards carried the ball six times in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He gained 32 yards on the ground, with a long of 12 yards. In the passing game, he was targeted once, making a one-yard catch on the play. As expected, Edwards took the starting role in the backfield with J.K. Dobbins (knee) on IR, but the touches just weren't there, as the Bolts ran the ball only 17 times total, split between five different players. Edwards and the whole Chargers offense will likely need to do a lot more next week when they take on the division-leading Kansas City Chiefs.
