Top Starters for Week 14 Fantasy Football
Quarterbacks
- Start of the Week: Jacoby Brissett (vs LAR) – Brissett has consistently scored at least 18.7 points in all seven starts this season, making him a reliable option.
- Ice Start of the Week: Patrick Mahomes (vs HOU) – Mahomes faces a tough matchup against the Houston Texans, who are allowing the fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks.
Running Backs
- Start of the Week: Quinshon Judkins (vs TEN) – Expect Judkins to perform well against the Titans, who rank among the bottom in fantasy points allowed to running backs.
- Ice Start of the Week: Woody Marks (at KC) – Marks has struggled recently, failing to score touchdowns and facing a tough Chiefs defense.
Wide Receivers
- Start of the Week: Michael Wilson (vs LAR) – With Marvin Harrison Jr. out, Wilson is set to take on a key role in the Cardinals’ offense.
- Ice Start of the Week: A.J. Brown (at LAC) – Despite a strong recent performance, Brown faces a Chargers defense that limits wide receiver scoring.
Tight Ends
- Start of the Week: Tyler Warren (at JAX) – The Jaguars have been vulnerable to tight ends, potentially giving Warren a chance at a big week.
- Ice Start of the Week: Oronde Gadsden II (at PHI) – Gadsden has not performed well recently and is up against a tough Eagles defense.
Sleepers to Consider
Quarterback
- Daniel Jones (at JAX) – Jones has the potential to rebound against a Jaguars defense that has struggled against quarterbacks.
Running Back
- Devin Neal (at TB) – Neal has the workload to perform admirably if Alvin Kamara is ruled out again.
Wide Receiver
- Jakobi Meyers (vs. IND) – Recently active in the Jaguars offense, Meyers has been consistently scoring points.
