Miles Sanders handles a career-high 22 touches in Week 13 loss.

Sanders rushed 17 times for 83 yards, also adding five receptions for 22 yards and a touchdown. The score came via a simple swing into the flat where no one covered him on the game’s opening possession, but it was the defense that let Philadelphia down by allowing 37 points in Miami. Sanders will continue leading the backfield for as long as Jordan Howard (shoulder) remains out, so consider him a high-upside RB2 for next week against the Giants on Monday Night Football.

Alshon Jeffery goes for 9/137/1 line in return to the lineup.

It felt like a big game was coming for Jeffery against a beatable Miami secondary, and that’s what happened for what turned out to be a high-scoring, 37-31 loss. Jeffery looked healthy and should be a difference-maker down the stretch with games against the Giants (twice), Redskins, and Cowboys over the final four weeks.

James Washington stays hot in win over the Browns.

Washington caught four passes for 111 yards and a touchdown, which came on a highlight grab in the first half as he was grabbed by defenders and made a phenomenal adjustment on the ball. Whether it’s been Devlin Hodges or Mason Rudolph under center, the second-year receiver now has 90+ yards and a touchdown in three of the past four games. He will be firmly on the FLEX radar whether or not JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) is active next week against the Cardinals.

Benny Snell churns out tough yardage in 20-13 win over Cleveland.

The game got off to a less-than-encouraging start with Jaylen Samuels seeing most of the work and the Browns jumping out to a 10-0 lead, but Snell eventually took over, finishing with 16 carries for 63 yards and a touchdown. If James Conner (shoulder) misses another week, Snell should be a low-end RB2/FLEX option thanks in large part to his touchdown potential, but it’s worth noting that game flow could be a concern in Arizona.

Tevin Coleman handles just five carries in Week 13 loss.

They went for six yards, and he also caught a nine-yard pass. Coleman drew the start, but Raheem Mostert ended up leading the backfield with 21 touches for 154 yards and a touchdown, surely leading to frustration for fantasy owners. The San Francisco backfield is expected to get Matt Breida (ankle) back next week against the Saints, so all three backs will be risky FLEX options to start the fantasy playoffs.

Raheem Mostert surprisingly leads San Francisco backfield in 20-17 loss to the Ravens.

Mostert rushed 19 times for 146 yards and a touchdown, also adding two receptions for eight yards. The veteran speedster worked clearly ahead of starter Tevin Coleman (six touches for 15 yards) against a stingy Baltimore defense, and this backfield will be extremely difficult to predict next week for a huge matchup in New Orleans. At worst, Mostert should be considered a high-upside FLEX play.

Jonathan Williams sees limited work in loss to the Titans.

Williams rushed eight times for 14 yards and caught one pass for 11 yards, working behind Jordan Wilkins (11 carries for 47 yards) and ceding two goal-line carries to Nyheim Hines (six touches for 40 yards and one touchdown). The Colts had said Williams could see another 20 attempts following back-to-back 100-yard games, but a full-blown timeshare broke out, and the most concerning part is that it was a close game throughout. Many fantasy owners spent a high waiver priority on Williams, but he’s now droppable with Marlon Mack (hand) potentially returning for Week 14.
