Tom Savage throws for 365 yards in Week 13 loss.

Savage played what was probably his best game of the season against the Titans, going 31/49 for 365 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. The touchdown was on a low throw to Stephen Anderson in the end zone. Next week against the 49ers would be as good of a matchup as any for Savage, but he’s best left out of fantasy lineups.

Amari Cooper (concussion/ankle) has been ruled out for Week 13.

This isn’t a surprise, as Cooper is dealing with both a concussion and a sprained ankle. The good news, for fantasy owners at least, is that they have clarity on the situation ahead of the weekend. Hopefully Cooper is feeling better soon, especially from the concussion, and it’d be great to see him healthy for the first week of the fantasy playoffs in Week 14. Now down his top two receiving options (Michael Crabtree is suspended) Derek Carr does have some risk against the Giants this week.

Dion Lewis leads the backfield with 15 carries in win over the Bills.

Lewis rushed 15 times for 92 yards, but he was held without a reception, and Rex Burkhead scored twice in the red zone. Still, Lewis has turned into an every-week RB2 heading into the fantasy playoffs, including in Week 14 against the Dolphins. The 27-year-old is averaging 5.3 yards per carry this season.

Lamar Miller (knee) is off the injury report.

There was some slight concern with Miller’s knee after he was banged up Monday night versus Baltimore, but he’ll officially be out there this Sunday against Tennessee. You can feel safe about inserting Miller into your lineup as a high-volume option in the final week of the fantasy regular season.

Tom Brady held in check, but Patriots defeat Bills 23-3 in Week 13.

Brady was 21/30 for 258 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. Despite the modest numbers, Brady is still on pace for 4,843 yards, 35 touchdowns, and five interceptions heading into the fantasy playoffs. He should be the top option every week, including on Monday night against the Dolphins. The only concern fantasy owners should have is a potential rest in Week 17 if New England locks up the top seed in the AFC by then.

Aaron Jones (knee) is questionable for Week 13.

Jones was limited in practice all week and looks like he’ll be a game-time decision for Sunday. Jamaal Williams is still likely to lead the backfield even if Jones does play, so he’s best left out of fantasy lineups if active. Check back in Sunday for Jones’ status.

Benjamin Watson scores in Week 13 win.

Watson caught three passes for 24 yards, including a one-yard touchdown in the first quarter. The veteran tight end isn’t a recommended fantasy option for the fantasy playoffs, but he should be a reliable target underneath for Joe Flacco down the stretch.
