Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb caught just two of six targets for 39 yards during Thursday's Week 13 win over the New York Giants. Lamb finished the contest having played a season-low 68 percent of the offensive snaps, spending a good portion of the second half on the sideline without his helmet. It's unclear if Lamb was sidelined due to performance or injury. It's worth noting that he did seem to react to a potential shoulder injury after being taken down by a defender, but the Cowboys never made any sort of injury report announcement regarding Lamb. Regardless of whether he's injured, fantasy managers can be rightfully disappointed about Lamb's quiet showing in a game where other Dallas pass-catchers, such as Brandin Cooks, KaVontae Turpin, and Luke Schoonmaker, thrived. If healthy, Lamb will look to bounce back as a low-end WR1 in fantasy football against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14.

Detroit Lions kicker Jake Bates went three-for-four on field goal attempts and converted both extra point tries in the Lions' 23-20 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 13. Bates' performance marked his sixth double-digit fantasy output of the season, bolstered by Detroit's ability to consistently create scoring opportunities. Bates remains one of the most reliable kickers in fantasy football this year. He'll aim for another strong showing as the Lions host the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football in Week 14.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Luke Schoonmaker caught five of six targets for 33 yards during Thursday's Week 13 win over the New York Giants. Schoonmaker established himself early in the contest as four of his five catches came within the first 32 minutes of the game. The 26-year-old has been playing quite admirably in the absence of Jake Ferguson (concussion). Over the last three games, he has 14 catches, 144 yards, one touchdown, and 34.4 fantasy points (PPR). Schoonmaker projects to drop off the fantasy radar as soon as Ferguson returns. However, if Ferguson can't play in Week 14, Schoonmaker would remain an intriguing low-end TE1 option.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams caught five passes for 28 yards and added two rushing attempts for 18 yards in the Lions' 23-20 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 13. Despite being involved in both the passing and rushing game, Williams was unable to deliver a strong fantasy performance, marking just the third time this season he failed to reach double-digit fantasy points. He will aim to bounce back in a divisional matchup when Detroit hosts the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football in Week 14.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Brandin Cooks found paydirt for the first time since Week 1 during the team's Thanksgiving win over the New York Giants. He hauled in three of his seven targets for 16 yards and a touchdown. This was his first game back after a seven-game absence and he tied his season-high in targets. Despite his lack of production, Cooks averages 6.5 targets per game this season. His next chance to capitalize on those targets will be against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14.

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta caught three passes for just six yards but managed to find the end zone twice in the Lions' 23-20 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 13. LaPorta's touchdowns were crucial for both the Lions' victory and his fantasy output, tying his second-highest fantasy performance of the season. While the volume left much to be desired, his red zone involvement keeps him as a streamable option moving forward. LaPorta will look to retain his scoring streak when Detroit hosts the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football in Week 14.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs turned in a mediocre fantasy output during the team's 23-20 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 13. Gibbs managed nine carries for 87 rushing yards, including several chunk gains, and added two receptions for 17 yards in the passing game. Despite his strong production, Gibbs' fantasy performance was dampened by a costly fumble and his inability to reach the end zone. The Lions will look to lean on Gibbs' explosiveness in their upcoming Week 14 Thursday Night Football showdown against the Green Bay Packers.

From RotoBaller

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery carried the load during the team's 23-20 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 13. Montgomery logged 21 rush attempts, his second-highest total this season, for 88 yards, while also catching all three of his targets for an additional 36 yards. Montgomery's steady volume led to yet another reliable fantasy outing, marking his eighth game this season with 15 or more fantasy points. As a cornerstone of Detroit's offense, he'll aim to maintain his momentum in a Week 14 Thursday Night Football matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown recorded five receptions on seven targets for 73 yards in the Lions' 23-20 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 13. After an impressive eight-game touchdown streak, St. Brown has now gone back-to-back weeks without finding the end zone. Still, his consistency remains a bright spot, as he has hauled in at least five catches in nine of 12 games this year. St. Brown will look to regain his scoring touch when the Lions host the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football in Week 14.

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Cooper Rush won the battle of backups on Thanksgiving by a score of 27-20 over the New York Giants. The Central Michigan product finished the game with 195 yards and one touchdown on 21-for-36 throwing. He also had five carries for zero yards and one fumble which he recovered. His touchdown pass came during the early parts of the third quarter where he found Brandin Cooks in the end zone to take a 20-10 lead at the time. Rush will look to build a little winning streak as they take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14.

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff completed 21 of 34 passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns in a 23-20 victory over the Chicago Bears in Week 13. Goff leaned on efficiency rather than volume, with both of his touchdowns going to rookie tight end Sam LaPorta. However, Detroit's heavy reliance on their dynamic backfield duo of Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery continues to limit Goff's ceiling for fantasy managers. While the Lions' offense continues to shine overall, Goff has now finished with fewer than 17 fantasy points in eight of 12 games this season, making him a volatile QB option. Goff and the Lions will face another NFC North rival in Week 14 as they host the Green Bay Packers on Thursday Night Football.

Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle posted his first-ever 100-yard rushing game in the 27-20 division win on Thanksgiving. The 26-year-old finished with 112 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries with three receptions for 11 yards on three targets. Dowdle's top six rushing outputs have all come this season now that he's seeing a higher snap share. In fact, this game against the Giants was his second-highest snap share of the year with 70%. Dowdle should continue to be one of the fantasy bright spots in this offense for the rest of the year and will look to keep the momentum rolling against the Bengals in Week 14.

The Packers' defense and special teams' unit were very busy on Thanksgiving night as they beat the Miami Dolphins 30-17. The Packers D/ST got to Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa five times on the night as the pass rush from Green Bay was relentless. Green Bay also capitalized on a muffed punt by Malik Washington that the Packers pounced on and that swing in field position led to the Packers' first touchdown of the game. With the Packers heading to Ford Field to take on the Detroit Lions in Week 13's Thursday Night Football, it's probably a good idea to leave the Packers D/ST on your bench or on waivers given the potency of the Lions' offense.

Las Vegas Raiders kicker Daniel Carlson is one of the league's most accurate players at his position. He's hit the bullseye on 91.7% of his kick attempts and has yet to miss an extra point try this weekend. He hasn't been a great starting option due to the lack of opportunities he's gotten this season. The Raiders offense is pretty anemic overall. However, he's made the most of them. He did score 10 fantasy points against the Chiefs just a few weeks ago. While every game script is different, KC allows the 10th-fewest fantasy points to opposing kickers this season. Carlson doesn't have a ton of upside even though he maximizes his opportunities well. He's a risky start, even in deeper fantasy leagues. It's better to stick to reasonably accurate kickers on more consistent offenses.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers is the team's clear No. 1 receiver, and he'll continue to fill in that role when he takes on the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13. While he has significant target competition from tight end Brock Bowers, who's elite in his own right, there are plenty of targets to go around for each of them. Meyers is coming off a huge game in Week 12 that saw him catch 10 of his 15 targets for 121 yards. That amounted to 22.1 PPR fantasy points. The opposing Denver Broncos defense made a point of bracketing Bowers, limiting his production severely. The Chiefs actually played him similarly in Week 8, and the Chiefs have given up a ton of points to receivers the last few games. Meyers should be started in all PPR leagues, though, regardless of matchup. He's an extremely skillful wideout.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker (hip) was cleared from the team's injury report, and will suit up in his Week 13 game against the Kansas City Chiefs. It's not a great matchup, at least not if you look at season-long stats. Curiously, though, the Chiefs have allowed 44.3 PPR fantasy points per game to opposing WRs in their last three matchups. That's second-most in the NFL to only the Atlanta Falcons. Tucker hasn't had many good games this season, though. He had seven catches for 82 yards last week, but will now have yet another starting quarterback change, as QB Aidan O'Connell (thumb) is set to return. Tucker is a risky player to trust in fantasy starting lineups. He's best left on the bench for now.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers caught just four of his 10 targets for 38 yards in Week 12. You shouldn't care. He'll face a tough Kansas City Chiefs defense in Week 13. You shouldn't care about that either. He'll also have to adapt to another change in his team's starting quarterback position -- Aidan O'Connell (thumb) will be the team's signal-caller on Friday. You still shouldn't care at all because Bowers is one of the best tight ends in the league, and he should continue to earn massive target volume and produce mightily for fantasy managers. Lock him into your starting lineups. He could still finish as the TE1 on the year. He's a beast, and you're lucky or just plain smart if you drafted him.

The Las Vegas Raiders D/ST aren't worth starting in any remotely normally structured fantasy football leagues in Week 13, when they'll face the Kansas City Chiefs They scored exactly zero fantasy points against the Denver Broncos in Week 12. They rank near the bottom -- or actually at the bottom by a significant margin -- in most of the important statistical categories defenses are described by, like turnover margin, fumble recoveries, interceptions, sacks, and points allowed. It probably won't be very fun starting them against head coach Andy Reid and quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Leave the Raiders D/ST where it belongs, in free agency.

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell (thumb) is set to return to play in Week 13, when he'll take on the Kansas City Chiefs. Interestingly, he led (sort of) his team to a victory over KC last season, though it was an odd, flukey game that saw him pass for only 62 yards. This season, things will be different. We can expect him to have more production, as he'll have elite tight end Brock Bowers and an excellent wide receiver in Jakobi Meyers to throw to. The run game hasn't been very good, though. The team is just 2-9, with virtually zero chance of making the playoffs, and the offense hasn't played very well this season. In fantasy football, AOC is a decent starting option in 2QB/Superflex leagues. In the rest, he should be benched, but is a decent stash.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ameer Abdullah could have another chance to dominate the backfield work for his team. LV will face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 13. Team lead RB Alexander Mattison (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game with an ankle injury, and his backup, Zamir White (quadricep), has been ruled out. Abdullah surprisingly had a good outing in Week 12, scoring 17.5 PPR fantasy points by rushing eight times for 28 yards and catching five passes for 37 yards and a touchdown. He has a brutal matchup ahead of him, though -- Kansas City allows the least PPR fantasy points per game to opposing running backs. They've done well at stymying tailback receiving production as well. He's an okay-ish RB3/FLEX option in PPR leagues with 12 or more teams.
