Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers missed his only field goal attempt in Week 13, making it the third consecutive week he has logged a miss. Each of the whiffs came from 40 yards out or more. On the plus side, he went 5-for-5 on extra-point tries, keeping his perfect record in that category intact. On Sunday, Seattle plays the San Francisco 49ers in a rematch from Thanksgiving night. Myers went 2-for-3 in the previous battle and had a single extra-point opportunity to cash in. On Sunday, the Seahawks will have to be in shootout mode to keep up with the 49ers or they will be held to driving and stalling short of the end zone as happened in Week 12. Either way, Myers has the potential for several opportunities to get points up, making him a worthwhile streamer in Week 14.

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant caught three passes for 43 yards against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13. The fact that that was his most productive game since Week 4 should say something about his viability in fantasy football. With a receiver group that includes DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and rookie Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Seattle's tight ends are not a priority in the team's passing game. Fant is the only one of the Seahawks' tight ends who runs routes more often than is used as a blocker, but the results of that speak for themselves. On Sunday, Seattle visits the Bay Area to take on the San Francisco 49ers for the second time in three weeks. In their last meeting, Fant caught two passes for 25 yards. On the season, the 49ers have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points, receiving yards, and touchdowns to opposing tight ends, making Fant an easy sit in Week 14.

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle was useful to fantasy managers in the team's 42-19 victory over the Seattle Seahawks last week with a six-target, four-reception, 68-yard performance. It was one of the rare times this year that Kittle avoided grossly over- or underperforming his projections. Kittle draws the Seattle Seahawks this week at home, who held him three receptions for 19 yards just two weeks ago. Seattle's pass defense has been suspect overall, ranking in the bottom third of the league in yards allowed but they've been pretty good at containing tight ends, allowing only 6.5 standard fantasy points to the position per game. Kittle is a must-start boom/bust TE1 in Week 14.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel heads into Sunday's home matchup against the Seattle Seahawks with momentum. Last week, Samuel won games for fantasy managers by catching four of four targets for 116 yards and two touchdowns to go with three carries for 22 yards and another touchdown. In the showdown with the Eagles, Samuel obliterated the same defense he had been smack-talking for months with huge plays after the catch. He's now scored five touchdowns in the last four games, including one against these same Seahawks in Week 12. The matchup is good -- Seattle has allowed the eighth-most points to fantasy receivers -- but it remains difficult to predict which of San Francisco's many talented pass-catchers will star. As the 49ers' current hot hand, Samuel checks in near his teammate Brandon Aiyuk on the WR1/WR2 border.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba set new personal bests in receptions and targets last week, grabbing seven of his 11 looks for 62 yards against the Dallas Cowboys. He nearly had a 30-yard touchdown pass to add to his numbers but the play was overturned on review. In Week 14, the Seahawks face the San Francisco 49ers for the second time in three weeks. In their last meeting, Smith-Njigba was limited to just two catches for 41 yards. Aside from the challenging matchup, Seattle's quarterback situation is in flux as Geno Smith (groin) is questionable for Sunday, which would mean Drew Lock may be in line for a start. Smith-Njigba has evolved into a somewhat stable floor play in PPR leagues but managers should consider Smith's potential absence before relying too heavily on the rookie in Week 14.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver had five receptions for 47 yards in Week 13 against the Dallas Cowboys, again coming up just shy of a double-digit fantasy score in PPR leagues. Lockett has had a few big weeks this season, but for the most part, he has not made a big impact in fantasy in 2023. That said, the 31-year-old veteran has seen at least seven targets in eight of Seattle's 12 games thus far, so the potential for a breakout always looms. Lockett faces two threats to his productivity in Week 14. First, he is up against the San Francisco 49ers, who held him to three catches for 30 yards in their last meeting two weeks ago. Second, quarterback Geno Smith (groin) is questionable for Sunday's game and Drew Lock may draw the start instead. A healthy Smith would qualify Lockett as a WR3 with upside, but if Lock is under center then Lockett would sink into the WR4 range.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk has been a valuable fantasy asset lately despite averaging just 3.75 receptions over his last four games. Aiyuk has shown a nose for the endzone to compensate for the lack of volume. He has now scored a touchdown in four consecutive games, the longest touchdown streak of his career. The former first-rounder's talents are blossoming but San Francisco's other playmakers are just as explosive, and there are only so many targets and touchdowns to go around. Aiyuk will line up against the 23rd-ranked (234.4 YDS/G) Seattle Seahawks pass defense which has allowed the eight-most wide receiver fantasy points per game. Start Aiyuk in Week 14 as a fringe WR1.

From RotoBaller

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf turned in his best performance of this season in Week 13, catching six of his eight targets for 134 yards and three touchdowns. His production came as something of a surprise against a dominant Dallas Cowboys defense and lends hope to a better turnout against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 14 after they held him to just three catches for 32 yards on Thanksgiving. San Francisco's tough defense may not be the only obstacle blocking Metcalf from another great day on Sunday. Quarterback Geno Smith (groin) popped up on the team's injury report and is questionable for the divisional matchup. If Drew Lock draws the start then Metcalf would still have WR2 potential, though his upside would be stunted and expectations should be set to the lower end of that tier.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan Mason will be in line for snaps behind Christian McCaffrey on Sunday versus the Seattle Seahawks with regular backup Elijah Mitchell (knee) expected to be sidelined. Though the 49ers may work Mason into the game plan -- he has shown some burst, averaging 5.5 yards per carry this year -- the safest bet is that he takes on as much work as Mitchell did, which is not fantasy-useful. Mitchell has only averaged 5.5 carries in the last four games and has gotten virtually no work in the passing game. Depending on future developments with Mitchell's knee and Mason's Week 14 outing, Mason could become the playoff stash to have in San Francisco, but he isn't startable versus Seattle.

From RotoBaller

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey took 17 carries for 93 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 13 statement win at the Philadelphia Eagles. He also turned four targets in the passing game into three receptions for 40 yards. Part of McCaffrey's historic reliability in fantasy has been his near-complete domination of backfield touches, which makes backup Elijah Mitchell's (knee) likely absence in Week 14 irrelevant. McCaffrey has a tasty home matchup on Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks who have the 22nd-ranked rush defense at 119.3 yards per game allowed while allowing the sixth-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs. Start CMC in Week 14 as the overall RB1 with an extremely high floor and a week-winning ceiling.

Last week San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy was fantastic, putting up some of the best fantasy numbers of his career. In the Week 14 42-19 defeat of the Eagles in Philadelphia, Purdy completed 19 of 27 attempts for 314 yards and four touchdowns. This summer the 23-year-old was off the radar in standard leagues, with most analysts expressing doubts concerning Purdy's surgically repaired elbow while figuring that a lack of rushing numbers and downfield throws would limit him to streamer status. He's now vaulted himself to consistent QB1 billing despite that by masterfully piloting one of the league's most explosive offenses. Purdy will be a worthy start at home on Sunday when the 49ers host a middling Seattle Seahawks pass defense.

New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger (illness) didn't practice on Friday. He's under the weather, so Saturday's practice session could tell a lot about his availability for Monday night's showdown with the Packers. Unfortunately, the 23-year-old hasn't played well all season, catching three passes or less in all his appearances. He also hasn't found the end zone. With this in mind, Bellinger should be left out of fantasy lineups even if he is active in Week 14.

From RotoBaller

Green Bay Packers defensive end Rashan Gary has an excellent matchup against the New York Giants in Week 14. Gary has made at least half a sack in each of the past three games and has nine sacks on the season. The Giants have allowed 5.8 sacks per game this season and 6.7 in the past three games. They are on pace to allow 99 sacks in the season, which would be just five fewer than the record held by the 1986 Eagles. While allowing the most sacks of all teams, the Giants have also allowed the third-most pressures. Gary approaches must-start status in this juicy matchup.

From RotoBaller

New York Giants quarterback Tyrod Taylor (ribs) practiced on Friday. It was his second consecutive full session, so it appears he's trending in a favorable direction toward a return after missing his last four contests. That said, although Taylor has a chance to get cleared for Monday's encounter with the Green Bay Packers, Tommy Devito will remain the starting quarterback. But DeVito has struggled at times since taking over, meaning Taylor could be back under center, potentially sometime in the next few games. However, the Giants offense hasn't looked great all year, making any signal-caller on the roster hard to trust in any fantasy format.

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Fred Warner ranks as the No. 17 IDP LB in Week 14 in RotoBaller's IDP rankings, as Warner goes up against the Seattle Seahawks. While Warner is one of the most talented linebackers in the league, his IDP production is hit or miss. He relies on tackles more than impact plays to make the bulk of his scoring, and his tackle production can fluctuate from as low as four, as it did last week, to as high as 13. His high-end is not as high as other top linebackers such as Foyesade Oluokun. While there is a lot of variability in linebacker production, the Seahawks do not provide an ideal matchup for linebacker production. They rank as only the 22nd-most favorable matchup in terms of average points allowed to LBs. Warner should be started in leagues that use two or more starting linebackers, but he can be benched in single-LB IDP leagues.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has struggled all year, with the 2020 No. 33 overall pick catching only 30 of his 54 targets for 364 yards. He's also missed time because of various injuries. At this point, fantasy managers will have a tough time placing Higgins in their starting lineups. However, while he's a risky option in Week 14, he could turn things around versus an underwhelming Colts defense.

From RotoBaller

Jacksonville Jaguars linebacker Foyesade Oluokun has a favorable matchup against the Cleveland Browns in Week 14. Opposing IDP linebackers score more points against the Browns than against two-thirds of the other offenses, as the Browns rush the ball often. Rams linebacker Ernest Jones, who, like Oluokun, excels at stopping running plays, made 15 combined tackles against the Browns last week. Oluokun has made double-digit tackles in two straight games and eight times in total this season. He has also made more impact plays than he has in the past, as he has tied his career high in fumble recoveries and is close to setting a new career high in sacks. Oluokun is an every-week IDP starter, and this week, he could have a stellar performance.

From RotoBaller

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase had one of the best performances of the season in the overtime win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. The wideout finished that one by catching 11 of his 12 targets for 149 yards and a touchdown, a significant improvement from his previous appearance. It seems Chase and quarterback Jake Browning are building a better rapport with each other, which is good news, considering the 23-year-old hasn't looked the best at times this season. Fortunately, he may have a few more impressive outings on the horizon, similar to the one he had in Week 13. Keep him going in all fantasy formats versus a miserable Colts defense.

From RotoBaller

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon played well in the Week 13 overtime victory over the Jaguars. He ran the ball 19 times, amassing 68 yards and scoring two touchdowns. The former Sooner also collected six of his seven targets for 49 yards. Of course, Mixon still has work to do as a runner, considering he hasn't surpassed the 100-yard rushing mark this season. However, he's found the end zone at least once in five of his previous six appearances, giving him plenty of upside for fantasy managers in Week 14 versus a vulnerable Colts defense.

From RotoBaller

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Jake Browning is entering the Week 14 meeting with the Colts having played the best game of his career. In the Week 13 overtime win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, the 27-year-old threw for 354 yards and a touchdown. He also completed 86.5% of his throws and had 22 yards and a score off two carries. Without question, Browning is becoming more comfortable as the Bengals quarterback. With this in mind, he'll make an ideal streaming option for those needing a fantasy signal-caller, especially versus a Colts defense that's struggled throughout the 2023-24 campaign.
