Updated Week 12 Fantasy Football Rankings

Here are my updated Week 12 Fantasy Football Rankings. They include all my positional, flex, and IDP rankings for Week 12 of the NFL season. We have 6 teams on a bye this week, so the decisions get a little harder as we go deeper into the bench. We had some major QB news with Daniel Jones getting released and now Brock Purdy is expected to miss Week 12. This will have a ripple effect on the rest of the rankings. We thought Isiah Pacheco would be back, but he is out another week. We have several players we are waiting for injury updates on.

At Quarterback I really like your AFC West options in my week 12 fantasy football rankings. Justin Herbert has been playing extremely well in this Greg Roman system and he gets the 3rd best matchup. Patrick Mahomes gets the Panthers and the only concern is that this game is not very competitive. Bo Nix has been playing really well against tough competition, this week he gets the Las Vegas Raiders. Loved Minshew Mania, but that ship has sailed.

Kareem Hunt is back in the lineup for one last ride before Isaiah Pacheco returns. He gets a dreamy matchup and someone you are starting with confidence this week could be a multi-TD week.  Brian Robinson Jr. is back, I am very high on him this week. That does not rule out Austin Ekeler if you are in a PPR league, he is a big part of their passing game. Both Buccaneers backs are in play this week against a Giants team that is preparing for the 2025 NFL Draft.

We have a ton of injuries to monitor with a ton of Questionable big-named WRs including Malik Nabers and Mike Evans. Their injury news will change week 12 fantasy football rankings quite a bit. Brandon Allen starting for the 49ers has the San Francisco pass-catchers trending down and running backs trending up. Courtland Sutton and DeAndre Hopkins are in my starting lineups this week with plus matchups. Jakobi Meyers is a player I would sit if I could this week against a tough Denver defense. While the Chargers pass catchers are moving up the rankings against Baltimore.

If you are struggling to find a tight end to start, Dallas Goedert should be wheels up with Devonta Smith. It’s time to start trusting Will Dissly, Jonnu Smith, and Hunter Henry. We have six teams out this week, so you may have to make some uncomfortable plays. Sam LaPorta, T.J. Hockenson, Mark Andrews, and Tucker Kraft all should be in play this week.  Here are the top 5 teams in allowing fantasy points per game to each position. I will adjust my week 12 fantasy football rankings as more news comes in this weekend.
