There is plenty to be thankful for at wide receiver in fantasy football in Week 13. With all 32 teams in action during this week, the top 25 to start list below is overflowing with good options for your lineups.
In Week 12, several star receivers were on their bye week and others had down games. Stepping into the void at the top of the standings were Jordan Addison ($5,100; 33.2 FPTS), Jaylen Waddle ($5,300; 31.4 FPTS), DJ Moore ($5,500; 29.9 FPTS) and Courtland Sutton ($5,500; 29.7 FPTS). A.J. Brown ($7,800; 25.9 FPTS) and Puka Nacua ($7,100; 23.7 FPTS) had good games on Sunday Night Football, but other than that the top options were mostly letdowns in Week 12.
Do any of those options have staying power in a crowded top 25 this week or will they get pushed back down the rankings with the Jets, Jaguars, Bengals, Bills and Falcons re-entering the player pool. Mike Evans and Nico Collins have also made recent returns from their injuries and remain near the top of the rankings for this week.
With so many options in play, here’s how I rank the top 25 WRs to start in Week 13:
- Nico Collins (at JAC)
- A.J. Brown (at BAL)
- Ja’Marr Chase (vs. PIT)
