It’s Week 13 of the NFL regular season, which means two things for most fantasy team owners: it’s probably the last day of your fantasy football regular season, and there are only two teams on bye this week for you to consider.
While there are mainly just three notable names that won’t see action this week (Tennessee’s Marcus Mariota and Rishard Matthews, and Cleveland’s Terrelle Pryor Sr.), it’s still worth taking note of how the remaining players are expected to perform as you strengthen or solidify your case for the virtual postseason. Let’s run down each Week 13 game below along with the projected numbers for each key fantasy player in those contests.
