DeShone Kizer throws a touchdown as Browns drop to 0-12.

Kizer was 15/32 for 215 yards, one touchdown, one interception, and a fumble lost, along with five carries for 56 yards int he loss to the Chargers. The touchdown was on a seam route to rookie tight end David Njoku, and the interception was just a really terrible decision thrown into triple coverage. Kizer did try to connect with Josh Gordon 11 times, and they had 85 yards in the game, but even the All-Pro’s presence probably isn’t enough to make Kizer a viable fantasy quarterback this season.

Leonard Fournette scores against the Colts.

Indy did a solid job of limiting Fournette, who carried 20 times for 57 yards and a touchdown while adding three receptions for 22 yards in the win. The score is what made it a really good fantasy day for Fournette, and he might need another score next week against the stingy Seahawks defense to deliver in the first week of the fantasy playoffs.

Mark Ingram turns 20 touches into 122 yards and a score in Week 13 win.

Ingram rushed 14 times for 85 yards and a score, adding six receptions for 37 yards. The highlight was a 72-yard run that he nearly housed, and it was a good sign for fantasy owners that both Ingram and Alvin Kamara could put up big-time numbers in a difficult matchup with Carolina. The former first-round pick will be a solid RB1 for the fantasy playoffs, including against the Falcons on Thursday night.

Demaryius Thomas, Broncos passing does nothing in Week 13.

Thomas caught two passes for 27 yards, but he and Emmanuel Sanders were both held without a reception for most of the day. Trevor Siemian looked uncomfortable behind a bad offensive line, and DT couldn’t capitalize on a good matchup. If Siemian is back under center next Sunday against the Jets, it’s hard to trust Thomas for the first week of the fantasy playoffs. Brock Oswieler would be a safer option and leave Demaryius as a solid WR2.

Drew Brees, Saints top the Panthers, 31-21, in big NFC matchup.

Brees was 25/34 for 269 yards, one touchdown, and no interceptions. The Saints had Mark Ingram and Alvin Kamara do most of the damage on Sunday with a combined 248 total yards, and Brees didn’t have to really air it out as they played ahead. New Orleans is now 9-3 and basically two games ahead of both the Falcons and Panthers in the NFC South, though Atlanta gets to face them twice, including on Thursday night. Brees will be a solid QB1 in that matchup and for the entirety of the fantasy playoffs.

Kendall Wright catches two passes in Week 13.

Wright gained 25 yards on his two receptions. While he fits the offense in the slot position for Chicago, Wright doesn’t get enough targets to be a reliable fantasy option right now.

Damiere Byrd makes first reception of the season in Week 13 loss.

It went for 12 yards, and is the New Jersey native’s second career catch. Byrd isn’t a fantasy option down the stretch.
