Week 13 Player Notes & Start/Sit Advice

As noted by FantasyPoints.com’s Scott Barrett (@ScottBarrettDFB), Dalton Schultz is averaging 15.0 PPR fantasy points over the last 10 games he’s played with Dak Prescott, while Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb is averaging 13.5 FPPG over his last 10 games with Dak. Now seemingly healthy after trying to play through a PCL injury earlier in the season, Schultz is back inside the circle of trust.

Greg Dulcich had a TD catch nullified by a penalty in Week 12. Without the score, he finished with 2-11-0 on three targets. Over his last three games, the rookie has produced just 7-52-0 on 12 targets. As the Denver offense continues to struggle, Dulcich is no longer a must-start.

When he returned from a high-ankle sprain in Week 11, David Njoku had 2-17-0 against the Bills with a 37% snap share. Against the Buccaneers in Week 12, Njoku had an 81% snap share and was good for 5-29-1, highlighted by an acrobatic TD catch against with under a minute left to force overtime in a game the Browns eventually won. It’s safe to put Njoku back in your lineup.

Seattle’s defense has been getting crushed by TEs all season, giving up 13.0 fantasy points per game to the position. But can we trust Tyler Higbee against the Seahawks this week after he was held without a catch in Week 11? Despite the promising matchup, I’m not inclined to trust Higbee when he’s catching passes from backup QB Bryce Perkins.

Jelani Woods has our attention after an 8-98-0 performance against the Steelers on Monday night. But dare we start him in Week 12? Not against a Dallas defense that has yielded only 392 receiving yards and one TD catch to tight ends this season.

Also on the TE watch list: Daniel Bellinger, who’s been out with an eye injury since Week 8. Bellinger had 16-152-2 in his first seven games, and he could play an even bigger role in the passing game down the stretch since injuries have left the Giants so thin at wide receiver.
