Larry Fitzgerald held in check, but Cardinals upset the Jaguars in Week 12.

Fitzgerald caught three passes for 12 yards, as Jacksonville wouldn’t let the future Hall-of-Famer beat them. Wade Phillips’ defense could do the same thing next week when the Rams come to town, as Fitz was held to just 29 yards in their first meeting. Still he’s a WR2 in PPR leagues, but should be downgraded to FLEX status in standard leagues.

Alshon Jeffery scores against former team.

This was Jeffery’s first game against the Bears, who he spent the first five years of his career with, and it was a good one. Jeffery caught five of nine targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in another Eagles win, with the touchdown coming on a pass near the end zone where he easily got behind zone coverage and caught a lofted pass from Carson Wentz. This makes four straight games with a touchdown for Jeffery, and he remains a solid option in fantasy lineups for Week 13 against Seattle.

Marcedes Lewis held to one reception in Week 12 loss.

It went for 10 yards. Lewis isn’t a recommended fantasy option against the Colts next Sunday.

Chiefs fall to 6-5 with Week 12 loss to Buffalo.

Kansas City’s offense continues to struggle, as they can’t get anything going on the ground and are also struggling to move it through the air. Alex Smith was 23/36 for 199 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the loss, while also adding five carries for a team-high 35 yards. The touchdown was on on a bubble screen to Albert Wilson for 19 yards, and the interception was a game-sealer for the Bills on a bad decision by Smith while the team was attempting to score a go-ahead touchdown. Smith and the offense are clearly struggling right now, but they have the coaching staff to turn it around. Still, it’s probably best to keep Smith out of fantasy lineups until the turnaround occurs.

Jermaine Gresham caught two passes for 13 yards in Sunday’s win.

Gresham took a backseat to Ricky Seals-Jones for the second-straight week, and he also had fewer yards than Troy Niklas. The veteran isn’t a fantasy option in Week 13.

Andy Dalton, Bengals handle business against the Browns with 30-16 win.

Dalton was 18/28 for 214 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. He also rushed four times for 26 yards. Cincinnati is now 5-6 and squarely in the wild-card conversation in the AFC, but they have a date with the 9-2 Steelers on Monday Night Football in Week 13. However, Pittsburgh just allowed Brett Hundley to have the best game of his career in Week 12, so Dalton could be in for a nice game with the season potentially on the line. He’ll still likely fall outside QB1 territory in next week’s rankings.

Devontae Booker gets eight touches in Week 12.

Booker carried six times for 11 yards and added two receptions (on two targets) for 22 yards against the Raiders. Denver couldn’t run the ball at all against Oakland, so Booker wasn’t alone in his subpar rushing performance. However, it’s good to see the Broncos continue to get Booker involved as a receiver, including deep down the field where he caught a pass just short of the goal line—and it looked like he might’ve been in, but he officials disagreed. In PPR leagues, Booker is in the FLEX conversation for Week 13.
