Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III is a high-end RB2 in Week 12. The Seahawks host the Arizona Cardinals who are the No. 25 defense against opposing running backs in fantasy. Walker has been held in check of late in fantasy, but this is a great matchup for him to get things going. His volume continues to be excellent, particularly his passing game usage. It is only a matter of time before Walker begins to hit on big plays once again. As long as the Seahawks keep this game close, Walker has a chance to push for 20 carries. He should see around three targets as well. Additionally, the Seahawks made an effort to be more balanced in Week 11 after having time to evaluate their offense after their Week 10 bye. As a result, the offense was more efficient, and Walker had plenty of touches. Look for the Seahawks to strive for the same balance in Week 12 and for Walker to deliver for fantasy.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III scored a touchdown in Week 11 for the first time since Week 7. The San Francisco 49ers were able to hold Walker in check on the ground, but his two receptions and his touchdown kept him afloat in fantasy. Walker has now scored at least 13.9 PPR fantasy points in every game but one this season. He has scored seven total touchdowns in seven games played, and he now has a career-high in receptions with a little under half a season to go. While Walker is not delivering the top five weeks he was at the beginning of the season, he has still been a high-end RB2. The Seahawks seem to have found defensive success in Week 11 as they held the 49ers to just 17 points. If that keeps up, then Walker should have plenty of opportunities on the ground and through the air. Look for him to keep up his scoring in a Week 12 clash with the Arizona Cardinals.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III should be an RB2 in fantasy in Week 11. The Seahawks will travel to San Francisco to play the 49ers who are vulnerable to opposing running backs in fantasy. Prior to the Seahawks' Week 10 bye, Walker had a couple of down games after setting the league on fire for several weeks before that. His rushing numbers over the last couple of games have been poor, but his passing game volume continues to keep him afloat in fantasy. With the Seahawks likely to be trailing for much of this game, Walker should see plenty of targets. Hopefully, he can get off to a solid start on the ground, especially with the Seahawks projected to have offensive tackle Abraham Lucas (knee) back in the lineup. Walker is an automatic start every week and he should deliver solid value once again in Week 11.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown heads into a Week 12 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts as one of the most reliable WR1 options in fantasy football. St. Brown is coming off an elite performance in Week 11, catching all 11 targets for 161 yards and two touchdowns, extending his touchdown streak to eight consecutive games. He ranks as the WR2 on the season, trailing only Ja'Marr Chase in fantasy points. St. Brown has exceeded 100 receiving yards in three games this season and thrives against zone defenses like the Colts, who rank 26th against the pass. Fantasy managers should continue to trust him as an elite WR1 option.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 11, catching all 11 of his targets for 161 yards and two touchdowns in a 52-6 rout. St. Brown extended his touchdown streak to eight consecutive games, cementing his status as a top-tier fantasy option. Heading into Sunday night, he ranks as the WR1 for the week and No. 2 fantasy scorer overall. This was his fifth game this season with 20 or more PPR fantasy points, showcasing his elite consistency in Detroit's high-powered offense. St. Brown remains a must-start WR1 heading into Week 12 as the Lions face the Indianapolis Colts.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown enters Week 11 against the Jacksonville Jaguars as a top fantasy option with a favorable matchup. St. Brown has scored in seven straight games, with a consistent 29% target share and 17 fantasy points per game average. While his yardage has been modest, averaging 56 receiving yards over the past seven games, his knack for finding the end zone bolsters his fantasy floor. This week, St. Brown faces a Jaguars defense that ranks last in both EPA and DVOA against the pass and allows the sixth-most fantasy points to wide receivers. Jacksonville's secondary has struggled with big plays, surrendering the most 20+ yard receptions per game. With Detroit's high-powered offense averaging 31.6 points per game, St. Brown's red zone involvement and touchdown potential make him an elite WR1 start.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers is in his first year of the pros, but he already looks like an elite player at his position. He might be the best TE in the NFL right now. He'll face the Denver Broncos in Week 12. They had no answer for him in Week 5, when he caught eight of his 12 targets for 97 yards and a touchdown. That was his best game for fantasy football of the season... until last week, when he caught 13 of 16 targets for 126 yards and a touchdown. He was considered to be one of the best tight end prospects in NFL Draft history, and he's easily living up to those expectations. Start him in every league every week he plays without blinking an eye. He could be a league-winner.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers was targeted 16 times in Week 11 against the Miami Dolphins, catching 13 of those passes for 126 yards and a touchdown. He was once again the lone bright spot in the team's loss, as no other offensive or defensive player on his team shined as bright as he did. It's becoming a common theme in his inaugural season, and it seems set to continue. As long as quarterback Gardner Minshew II starts, at least. But he's an elite player at his position already, and it seems that any QB that plays for this team would be well served in spamming the ball in his direction. He's an elite TE option in fantasy and should be started every week from now on, even in Week 11 against a tough Denver Broncos defense.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers should remain a sure lock for fantasy football starting lineups when he plays against the Miami Dolphins in Week 11 of NFL action. The rookie pass-catcher has had a stellar season so far, especially considering the low production of the offense he's on. He's caught 57 of his 73 targets for 580 yards and two touchdowns, and while his scoring number leaves something to be desired, his value in PPR leagues can't be understated. This hasn't been a great year for tight end production, and he's been a nice reprieve from the misery many fantasy managers face. Set and forget him in your lineups. He's the TE2 in PPR despite having been on bye in Week 10.

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson looks to continue his steady progression in Week 12 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers after a solid Week 10 showing with four receptions on six targets for 37 yards. Johnson has been quietly consistent this season, tallying 21 receptions for 238 yards and a touchdown while averaging 11.3 yards per catch and 5.08 fantasy points per game. The Buccaneers present an enticing matchup, ranking 28th against fantasy tight ends and 30th in pass defense, allowing 264.1 yards per game through the air. With Tampa struggling to contain tight ends and having given up 20 passing touchdowns this season, Johnson offers sneaky streaming appeal in deeper leagues, especially with his increased reliability in recent games.

New York Giants rookie tight end Theo Johnson (back) was listed as a full participant in Thursday's practice after he went down as limited on the injury report on Wednesday. Johnson has been dealing with a back injury of late but didn't miss the Week 10 loss to the Carolina Panthers in Germany and had extra time to heal up during last week's bye. He had three catches for a season-high 51 yards and the first touchdown of his NFL career in the Week 9 loss to the division-rival Washington Commanders. Johnson has some intriguing long-term upside for those in dynasty/keeper leagues, but he hasn't really moved the needle as more of a TE3 in his first year in the league. The 23-year-old's fantasy stock in 2024 will likely be negatively affected by quarterback Daniel Jones' benching, as well as the impending return of receiver Darius Slayton (concussion).

New York Giants rookie tight end Theo Johnson (back) finds himself on the Week 12 injury report after being listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday. Johnson played through the back injury before the Week 11 bye in the loss to the Carolina Panthers in Germany and caught four of his six targets for 37 yards. The 23-year-old should be able to play again this Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, barring a setback in practice later this week. At best, Johnson is a low-end TE2/high-end TE3 in fantasy, although perhaps he's more involved in the offense moving forward with the Giants benching quarterback Daniel Jones for Tommy Devito. Johnson has caught 21 of 32 targets for 238 yards and one touchdown in his first 10 NFL games. He's mostly rostered in dynasty/keeper leagues.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet is expected to remain in his limited role in the Seattle offense, making him a low-end RB3 in Week 12 facing the Arizona Cardinals. While Kenneth Walker III has continued to dominate snaps in the Seattle backfield, Charbonnet has operated as the clear No.2 option. Last weekend, he saw just four carries and two targets. Since Week 8, Charbonnet has averaged just 3.0 rushing attempts per game. In addition, during this span, Walker logged more than 20 more offensive snaps than Charbonnet on two occasions. As a result, fantasy managers should continue to view Charbonnet as a high-upside handcuff with little to no standalone value while Walker is healthy. This weekend, facing the Cardinals, fantasy managers should view him as a desperation flex option in 14+ team formats.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet is coming off his bye week and will continue to serve as the backup to Kenneth Walker III for a big divisional game in Week 11 on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers. In the Week 9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, Charbonnet saw only two rushing attempts for eight yards and caught two of his three targets for 25 yards. The 49ers defense hasn't been as strong as recent seasons and they have allowed the 13th-most half-PPR points per game to RBs this year, but as long as Walker is healthy in Seattle's backfield, Charbonnet is only going to be provided with scraps. The 23-year-old is a great handcuff for those that have Walker rostered, but there's little standalone fantasy value to speak of. In the first meeting against San Fran on Oct. 10, Charbonnet had five carries for 20 yards and caught his only target for a 15-yard gain.

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum had plenty of hype entering the 2024-25 campaign, considering head coach Sean McVay made it seem the rookie would have a routine role in the offense. Unfortunately, that hasn't happened, with the 2024 No. 83 overall pick accumulating only 28 carries for 101 yards in 10 games this season. Without a doubt, Kyren Williams is the top option out of the backfield, so unless he goes down with an injury, Corum has no business in any fantasy lineup, including for the Rams' Sunday Night Football clash with the Philadelphia Eagles.

Baltimore Ravens offensive coordinator Todd Monken acknowledged last week that the team has had a tough time finding ways to involve new wide receiver Diontae Johnson into their offense after acquiring him at the trade deadline from the Carolina Panthers. ESPN's Dan Graziano gets the sense that Baltimore considered Johnson too good of a player to pass on at the price that the Panthers were asking. He also gives the Ravens an option to use more three-receiver sets than they typically utilize if they want to go in that direction. Baltimore doesn't roll with many three-receiver sets, though, and aren't expected to have a major midseason scheme shakeup, which means that Johnson could just end up being a veteran insurance policy for top receiver Zay Flowers. He has only one catch on four targets for six yards in his three games with the Ravens and should be left on benches in Week 12 versus the Chargers.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Diontae Johnson has yet to find the amount of success he enjoyed when catching passes from Andy Dalton earlier this season. Head coach John Harbaugh did say that Johnson's involvement would be ramped up, but the Ravens have a tougher matchup in Week 11. They take on the Pittsburgh Steelers, Johnson's former team, who are one of the tougher defenses against opposing passing games. Zay Flowers, Mark Andrews, and Rashod Bateman have all been big pieces to this offense, so it's still unknown how Johnson fits into the mix. He could be a flex play in very deep leagues, but he's not much of a trustworthy option.

Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh said he'd expect new wide receiver Diontae Johnson to ramp up his snaps now that he's had enough practices with the team under his belt. Johnson was dealt from the Carolina Panthers to the Ravens before the trade deadline, but he's been a non-factor in his two games with the Ravens, catching just one of two targets for a six-yard gain. He wasn't targeted at all in his debut with Baltimore in the Week 9 win over the Denver Broncos. But now that the former Steeler has had enough practice reps, we should start to see him get more involved in the offense, starting in Week 11 in a big divisional clash against his former team in Pittsburgh. Still, Johnson will be a shaky WR3/flex option for fantasy managers in an offense with plenty of mouths to feed. Johnson's increased involvement is bad news for wideouts Zay Flowers, Rashod Bateman and Nelson Agholor.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks should be left on all benches in Week 12 when the Packers face the San Francisco 49ers. Wicks has not caught a pass in each of the past two games and has averaged just 2.0 targets during this span. Wicks has only surpassed double-digit PPR points on three occasions this season but fell below 7.0 PPR points in each of the other seven contests. Playing in a crowded Green Bay wide receiver room, Wicks has shown flashes of potential at times but has been unable to see a consistent dose of targets. As a result, fantasy managers in all formats should keep Wicks on their bench. However, managers in deeper formats should continue to stash Wicks on their roster as he could find a path to fantasy stardom if he can find his way toward the top of the depth chart down the stretch.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks comes off his bye week to face a tough Chicago Bears defense on the road on Sunday in Week 11. The Bears secondary has allowed the third-fewest half-PPR points to opposing receivers in 2024, so the Packers passing attack could struggle to move the ball consistently this weekend. Wicks, meanwhile, will hope to contribute something after going catchless on three targets in the Week 9 loss to the division-rival Detroit Lions. He does have four touchdowns on the season, but he has only eclipsed 50 receiving yards in a game once in nine games and not since Sept. 29 against the Minnesota Vikings. The 23-year-old has 16 receptions for 192 total yards and is outside the top-50 wideout in average fantasy points per game. Wicks profiles as a low-upside, touchdown-dependent flex option in deeper fantasy leagues against Chicago.
