Week 11 was a weird fantasy week for wide receivers with regular contributors coming up almost empty and some players from the fringe absolutely going off with big games. How much of Week 11 was weirdness and how much will impact things going forward? Let’s find out by running down my top 30 WR Rankings in Week 12 after a quick look back at the best of Week 11.
With Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) out unexpectedly midweek, the WR weirdness started early and culminated in Michael Wilson (36.5 FPTS) leading the way with the highest score of the week (coming into Monday Night Football). Tetairoa McMillan (36 FPTS), Nico Collins (24.2 FPTS), Jaxon Smith-Njigba (23.6 FPTS) and Stefon Diggs (22.5 FPTS) rounded out the top five.
In Week 12, the Saints and Colts are back in action after a bye week, while the Dolphins, Commanders, Chargers and Broncos get the week off.
