Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott has emerged as a potential must-start fantasy option heading into Week 14 against the Carolina Panthers. Elliott ranks 20th among kickers in fantasy points this season, but he has played well lately, going 4-for-4 on field goals and 7-for-7 on extra points over his last two games. In addition to his latest accuracy, Elliott gets a very favorable Week 14 matchup against the Panthers, who have allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing kickers in 2024. Carolina has surrendered an average of 2.9 extra points and 2.2 field goals per game, and those numbers could jump even higher after this week's contest against a strong Eagles offense. Scoring opportunities will be plentiful for Elliott on Sunday. He's a top option ahead of this week's fantasy football matchups.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary remains an unreliable fantasy option for Week 14 against the New Orleans Saints. On one hand, Singletary did draw the start last week, getting a potentially expanded role after Tyrone Tracy Jr. had fumbled three times over the two previous games. However, Tracy ended up handling the bulk of the backfield work as Singletary finished with just seven carries for 23 yards. The 27-year-old has tallied a career-low 4.01 yards per carry this year and remains the Giants' No. 2 option out of the backfield heading into Sunday's contest. Even against a Saints defense struggling to defend the run, Singletary is not a trustworthy fantasy option. He can be benched in all leagues with 14 or fewer teams.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Will Levis faces the reeling Jacksonville Jaguars this weekend in a divisional battle. The young quarterback has shown marked improvement since returning from injury, finishing as a top-20 quarterback each of the past four weeks, including one top-10 finish. The bar was extremely low for the Kentucky product, as he had failed to reach even that threshold in four out of five weeks to begin the year. While it's not pretty all of the time, Levis has thrown for seven touchdowns to two interceptions since Week 10 and looks much more comfortable in this offense. Unfortunately, the Titans are No. 1 in the league in sacks allowed during this time, but it's promising that Levis has still managed to put up decent numbers instead of this issue. This week, Levis faces a Jaguars defense that is 31st against opposing quarterbacks, which puts him as a potential streamer with six teams on the bye. It's possible that Tennessee opts to go with a more ground-heavy offensive approach, given Jacksonville's struggles in that department. Still, Levis at home against an atrocious secondary should give fantasy managers a nice floor.

New Orleans Saints tight end Foster Moreau (shoulder) practiced in full on Friday after logging limited sessions on the two preceding days. He will not carry a designation going into Sunday's game against the New York Giants. In Week 13, fellow tight end Taysom Hill (knee) tore his ACL, ending his season and thus bumping Moreau up in the pecking order on offense. It should be noted that during Hill's previous multi-week absence earlier this season, Moreau had minimal involvement as a pass-catcher. To date, he has 17 catches for 223 yards and three touchdowns on 25 targets. Fantasy managers in a bind at tight end thanks to this week's bye-pocalypse should look elsewhere for help. The Giants allow the second-fewest fantasy points per game to the position and Moreau is used as an extra blocker more than twice as often as he runs a route. If desperation drives investment in the Saints for roster help, look to Juwan Johnson rather than Moreau for a streaming tight end.

New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe hit a pair of 54-yard field goals in Week 13 but also missed a 36-yarder in the 21-14 loss to the Rams. The miss was his first since Week 8 and just his second missed field goal of the year. He is now 5-for-5 on attempts from 50 yards or more. On the season Grupe has been good on 20 out of 22 field goal attempts and has converted 26 of 28 extra point tries. In Week 14 the Saints face the New York Giants, who rank in the bottom half of the league in fantasy points allowed to opposing kickers. Grupe has not been spectacular by any stretch but his long-range accuracy offers some appeal. With six teams on bye this week, it may be necessary to shop the wire to fill the kicker slot. Grupe is a decent option but fantasy managers will be best served to shop for a more lucrative matchup as the Saints-Giants pairing is expected to be a low-scoring affair.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Adam Thielen will look to stay hot as Carolina travels to the hostile Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday to take on the Philadelphia Eagles. For the veteran wideout, the matchup will test if Thielen can continue to be productive for fantasy managers in a tough matchup. Thielen recorded eight receptions for 99 yards and a touchdown in last Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 34-year-old also had an incredible one-handed reception in overtime and a controversial circus catch that was wrongfully ruled not a touchdown. Still, the Philadelphia secondary offers major problems for Thielen and company, leading to RotoBaller's WR39 tag on the veteran this week.

Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen will look to continue his strong play in Week 14 as he faces a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers' secondary. The 49ers rank 4th in passing yards allowed, giving up just 190 yards per game. Meanwhile, Allen's fellow star wide receiver, DJ Moore (quadriceps), is listed as questionable for the game after being limited in Friday's practice following missed sessions on Wednesday and Thursday. While Moore is optimistic he'll play, if he's unable to suit up, it would open the door for other pass catchers to step up in the Bears' offense. Allen has been a key part of Chicago's passing attack, coming off a Week 13 performance where he caught five passes for 73 yards and two touchdowns. Even with Moore potentially active, Allen remains a solid flex play, but if Moore is ruled out, Allen becomes a near must-start option in all formats.

Chicago Bears rookie wide receiver Rome Odunze will look to bounce back from a quiet performance in Week 13 as he faces a tough San Francisco defense in Week 14. The 49ers rank 4th in passing yards allowed, limiting opponents to just 190 yards per game. Meanwhile, Odunze's fellow star wide receiver, DJ Moore (quadriceps), is listed as questionable after being limited in Friday's practice following missed sessions on Wednesday and Thursday. While Moore remains optimistic about playing, if he's unable to go, it would open up more opportunities for the Bears' other pass catchers. Odunze will need to step up after a modest Week 13 performance in which he recorded just two catches for 25 yards. If Moore is ruled out, Odunze will become a boom-or-bust option with the potential for a more prominent role in the passing game. However, if Moore plays, it's difficult to confidently start Odunze, given the competition for targets in the Bears' offense.

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet is a risky fantasy start in Week 14 as he faces a solid San Francisco defense. The 49ers rank 4th in passing yards allowed, giving up only 190 yards per game. Meanwhile, Kmet's star wide receiver teammate, DJ Moore (quadriceps), is listed as questionable after being limited in Friday's practice following missed sessions on Wednesday and Thursday. While Moore is optimistic about playing, if he's unable to suit up, it would significantly boost the other pass catchers in the Bears' offense. However, Kmet has been a secondary option in the passing game all season, making him a volatile fantasy choice. He managed just three receptions for 26 yards last week. If Moore is ruled out, Kmet becomes a borderline TE1 with the potential for more targets, but if Moore plays, it will be hard to confidently start Kmet, given the competition for touches in the Bears' offense.

The Chicago Bears defense and special teams will look to bounce back in Week 14 as they face the explosive San Francisco 49ers offense. After a mixed performance in Week 13, where the Bears allowed several big plays to the Detroit Lions, they now turn their attention to Brock Purdy and a potent 49ers attack. San Francisco boasts a balanced offense, ranking 9th in passing yards per game and 7th in rushing yards per game. The Bears' task may be a bit easier with star running back Christian McCaffrey (knee) out for the rest of the season, but the 49ers still have plenty of weapons. With playmakers like George Kittle, Deebo Samuel, and Jauan Jennings, San Francisco can strike quickly and dominate through both the air and on the ground. Given the tough matchup, it's advisable to look for another defense to stream in Week 14. The Bears' defense, despite the potential for a bounce-back, will have a hard time limiting this high-powered offense.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Bears kicker Cairo Santos is a solid but unexciting fantasy option in Week 14 as he faces the San Francisco 49ers. Santos' most recent outing was limited, as he only had the opportunity to attempt two extra points during the game, both of which he successfully converted. This highlights how the Bears' offense can often cap his fantasy upside, as he doesn't always get many scoring opportunities. While Santos could have a decent game this Sunday, better options are likely available for those looking to stream a kicker. Given the matchup with a tough 49ers defense, it's worth exploring other kickers who may see more chances to score.

When Marquez Valdes-Scantling scored his touchdown in Week 13, he joined Donte Stallworth as the only players in Saints' history with four receiving touchdowns in their first four games with the franchise. Valdes-Scantling will look for a fifth come Sunday when New Orleans takes on the New York Giants. With Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee) sidelined with injuries, MVS has emerged as the Saints' most productive wide receiver. However, with 237 yards and four touchdowns on just eight catches with the team, MVS is as boom-or-bust as they come. As unlikely as it may seem, another boom may be in the works against the Giants. While New York has seen the fewest deep targets (20-plus air yards) in the league, they are allowing the highest completion rate on those passes (20-for-29). MVS has an average depth of target of 22.8 as a Saint and should see a couple of deep shots in Week 14. With six teams on bye, he makes for a high-risk, high-reward flex play.

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson (foot) was limited in practice all week but carries no designation on the team's final injury report going into their matchup with the New York Giants. In Week 13, Johnson tied Taysom Hill (knee) for the team lead in targets. Hill suffered a torn ACL during the game and will now miss the rest of the season, which may force New Orleans to turn to Johnson more in the last weeks of the season. There is no guarantee for success in Week 14, though, as the Giants have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points per game and just one touchdown all season to opposing tight ends. Johnson may rip off a chunk play or two, as he has done routinely this season, but he shouldn't be counted on for a big game. With six teams on bye in Week 14, Johnson is a desperation streamer this Sunday.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Derek Carr has two top-15 performances since returning from injury in Week 9. His sudden resurgence is surprising as he has been missing receivers Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee), among others. Down his best pass-catchers, Carr has spread the ball out more and developed a rapport with Marquez Valdes-Scantling, to whom he has thrown four touchdown passes over the Saints' last three games. Since his return, Carr has thrown six touchdowns and no interceptions, and he has the seventh-highest completion percentage (68.5%) among regular starters since Week 10. On deck for New Orleans are the New York Giants, who have allowed a top-14 finish to opposing quarterbacks in seven of their last nine games. The Giants also allow the highest completion rate of pass attempts over 20 yards, setting Carr and MVS up for another big play on Sunday. With six teams on bye in Week 14, Carr holds appeal in two-QB formats and even in deeper single-QB leagues where the wire will be thinner.

This Sunday, rookie quarterback Caleb Williams presents a high-risk, high-reward fantasy option as he faces off against the San Francisco 49ers. Williams will look to build on his strong performance from Week 13, where he completed 20 of 39 passes for 256 yards and three touchdowns in a win over the Detroit Lions. However, this week presents a far more formidable challenge. The 49ers rank 4th in the NFL in passing yards allowed, limiting opponents to just 190 yards per game. Adding to Williams' concerns are the injuries to two of his top playmakers, D'Andre Swift (quadriceps) and DJ Moore (quadriceps), both of whom are listed as questionable. While both players practiced on a limited basis Friday, their availability for Sunday remains uncertain. If Swift and Moore can suit up, Williams could be a borderline QB1 for Week 14. However, without them, it's hard to feel confident starting him in most fantasy leagues.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is set up for a big game in Week 14 against the New York Giants. The Giants allow the second-highest yards per carry (5.04) and the fifth-most PPR points per game to opposing running backs. Kamara ranks third in touches per game (22.1), and he will see plenty of action again on Sunday as the Saints are short on playmakers. Backup Jamaal Williams has been ineffective in his role, and Kendre Miller (hamstring) is listed as questionable. The Saints have been down multiple receivers for weeks, including top options Chris Olave (concussion) and Rashid Shaheed (knee). The most recent blow came in Week 13 when Taysom Hill (knee) suffered a season-ending injury, robbing New Orleans of another weapon. Since quarterback Derek Carr returned from injury in Week 9, Kamara has seen the most total targets, and he should be among the team's leaders in the category in Week 14. Starting Kamara against the Giants is as easy of a decision as it gets for fantasy managers.

Due to injuries to key teammates, Travis Homer may transition from special teams ace to starting running back for the Chicago Bears in Week 14. Both D'Andre Swift (quadriceps) and Roschon Johnson (concussion) are dealing with injuries, which could open the door for Homer to get the nod. Swift was limited in Friday's practice after missing Wednesday and Thursday's sessions, while Johnson has already been ruled out for the game. With Johnson unavailable, Darrynton Evans is likely to serve as the backup to Homer, as he is currently on the Bears' practice squad. The 49ers defense is traditionally stronger against the pass than the run, making this an intriguing opportunity for the Bears' running backs. San Francisco is allowing 119.9 rushing yards per game, which could lead to significant fantasy production for whoever gets the start. If Swift and Johnson are both sidelined, Homer becomes an appealing deep-league play, especially for fantasy managers dealing with injuries or bye-week dilemmas.

From RotoBaller

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (hamstring) is listed as questionable in the team's final injury report ahead of its Week 14 matchup against the New York Giants. The second-year back spent the first six weeks on the sidelines while recovering from a preseason hamstring injury, only to see minimal action in two games before landing back on injured reserve. Interim head coach Darren Rizzi indicated in comments to the media on Friday that Miller was trending in the right direction, though he stopped short of confirming that he will take the field. Should the Saints deem him healthy enough for action, he will give the team an alternative to Jamaal Williams when Alvin Kamara needs a breather. Seeing as how Miller will be vying for playing time behind one of the most heavily used backs in the league, fantasy managers don't need to be in a rush to add him ahead of Sunday's game.

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard will test his legs against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 14, who rank third in fewest points allowed to halfbacks. In Week 13, Hubbard had his worst performance since Week 1, recording just 43 yards on 12 carries, no receiving targets, and a game-losing fumble in overtime. The concerns don't stop there, as Hubbard saw just 79% of offensive snaps on Sunday while rookie running back Jonathon Brooks took on a more significant role in the game plan. This was always the preseason concern for Hubbard managers, and it seems their fears could be coming true at an inopportune time. RotoBaller has Hubbard ranked as RB24 for Week 14.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson aims to bounce back in Week 14 against the New Orleans Saints after a quiet Week 13 performance against Dallas, where he managed just 6 yards on two catches. Robinson has been a steady, short-area target this season, logging 63 receptions on 91 targets for 447 yards and two touchdowns, though his 7.1 yards per reception limits his big-play upside. The Saints defense, ranked 25th against fantasy wide receivers and 29th against the pass overall (249.1 yards allowed per game), provides an opportunity for a rebound, especially if Malik Nabers misses the game. Robinson's high floor as a possession receiver could see a boost in targets, making him a low-end flex option in PPR leagues for Week 14.
