2022 Week 14 Fantasy Football Sleepers
🚨 HEADS UP 🚨 These are sleepers. They volition not mimic my rankings 100%. This is chasing upside and often carries much risk.
QUARTERBACK
POSSIBLY START: Jared Goff, DET — Goff is coming disconnected 2 bully games, which conscionable truthful hap to beryllium astatine home. Goff is amended indoors, with 18 of his 19 touchdowns coming wrong (nine games). Last clip helium faced the Vikings, Goff had 277-1-1 for 13.9 phantasy points, and that was a roadworthy game. Goff is worthy the hazard astatine location successful a bully matchup and with each of his receivers healthy… adjacent though I consciousness similar I’m moving into this mistake of a gamble again.
RUNNING BACK
POSSIBLY START: D’Onta Foreman, CAR — Foreman sounds acceptable to spell aft getting dinged up earlier the Panthers’ bye, and aft posting 118, 118, 130 and 113 rushing yards, respectively, successful his 4 games with 15+ carries, determination is bully crushed for excitement. The Seahawks can’t halt the tally — retrieve Josh Jacobs successful Week 12? — and conscionable fto Cam Akers enactment up a 17-60-2 rushing line. Foreman isn’t conscionable a imaginable start, he’s a must-start successful Week 14. Chuba Hubbard is simply a heavy flier play fixed this matchup if you’re needy.
HAIL MARY START: Raheem Mostert, MIA — Who knows what is going connected with Jeff Wilson and Mostert? Yes, the Dolphins fell down rapidly past week, but that doesn’t wholly excuse eliminating Wilson from the game. Nevertheless, we person 2 reasons some — but adjacent much truthful Mostert — are successful play this week. The Chargers are besides highly susceptible to moving backs, but their discourtesy is beardown capable to support gait with the Dolphins, oregon adjacent astonishment with an aboriginal lead. If Week 13 is immoderate indication, that would mean much Mostert, and a imaginable Top 20 finish.
WIDE RECEIVER
POSSIBLY START: Zay Jones, JAX — Jones had phantasy outputs of 10.8 and 20.0 successful the 2 weeks earlier the Lions letdown. He inactive saw 7 targets past week, and the matchup with the Titans tin assistance Jones rebound. The Titans person fixed up the fourth-most receptions (170), second-most yards (2,308 yards) and astir touchdowns (17) to wideouts this year.
POSSIBLY START: Courtland Sutton oregon Jerry Jeudy, DEN — If Sutton tin play, he’s successful enactment for a coagulated game, and if not, Jeudy tin measurement up for a Top 30 decorativeness of his own. The Chiefs are Top 10 successful allowing receptions and yards to wideouts, but the adjacent greater entreaty is that they’ve allowed the second-most touchdowns, which helps receivers person a startable week adjacent with mediocre yardage.
HAIL MARY START: Van Jefferson, LAR — The Raiders are connected pat for the Rams, and portion determination is astir thing near to similar connected this team, Van Jefferson is simply a good desperation play. He has a 19-11-136-2 receiving enactment successful the past 4 games. Okay, yes, those yards are gross. However, this is simply a touchdown anticipation (and prayer… and missive to Santa…), which would presumption Jefferson for 10 points and a Top 30 finish.
Oh, and with that GIF, marque definite to ticker Violent Night!

TIGHT END
HAIL MARY START: Chigoziem Okonkwo, TEN — Make the “bless you” jokes, but Okonkwo has 10-7-103 combined successful the past 2 games, and, hey, that’s bully capable for TE16 (#BanTEOnlySpots). Even portion lone allowing 4 touchdowns to choky ends connected the year, the Jaguars inactive let the 13th-most FPPG to choky ends, and their APA is eighth champion for Week 14.
Fun with Rankings!
