ESPN fantasy ownership: 49.6%

Week 14 stats: 147 passing yards, two passing touchdowns, 71 rushing yards — 19 fantasy points

One thing to know: Lamar Jackson has now rushed for at least 70 yards in four straight starts, and next week faces the somewhat questionable defense of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. If you need a late addition at quarterback, Jackson could come through for you.

Derrick Henry, RB, Tennessee Titans

15. Tennessee Titans BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership:56.2%

Week 14 stats: 238 rushing yards, four touchdowns — 47.8 fantasy points

One thing to know: The top add this week, Derrick Henry ruined plenty of fantasy players days last week, though most owners left him benched. While there is no chance he'll have another day as big as his four-touchdown explosion on Thursday, it is clear that Henry has something to offer for those still alive in their leagues.

Damien Williams, RB, Kansas City Chiefs

Damien Williams, RB, Kansas City Chiefs BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 14%

Week 14 stats: 14 rushing yards, four receptions, 16 receiving yards, two touchdowns — 19 fantasy points

One thing to know:

Elijah McGuire, RB, New York Jets

Elijah McGuire, RB, New York Jets BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 11.3%

Week 14 stats: 60 rushing yards, three receptions, 23 receiving yards, one touchdown — 17.3 fantasy points

One thing to know: Jets running back Isaiah Crowell exited the game with an injury Sunday, leaving Elijah McGuire to pick up the slack. Should Crowell's injury keep him out next week, McGuire will have plenty of value as the Jets top back against the Texans.

Darren Sproles, RB, Philadelphia Eagles

Darren Sproles, RB, Philadelphia Eagles BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 4.8%

Week 14 stats: Three receptions, 34 receiving yards, one touchdown — 12.6 fantasy points

One thing to know: Darren Sproles didn't see a ton of action on Sunday, but with Corey Clement adding himself to the long list of Eagles running back injuries, his workload is likely to increase next week.

Kenny Stills, WR, Miami Dolphins

Kenny Stills, WR, Miami Dolphins BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 25.7%

Week 14 stats: Eight receptions, 135 receiving yards, one touchdown — 27.5 fantasy points

One thing to know: Kenny Stills has been relatively quiet this season, but showed he still has the potential for a game-changing fantasy day with his huge performance against the Patriots on Sunday. He's available in a ton of leagues but does have some tough matchups coming up, with the Vikings and Jaguars next on his schedule.

Dede Westbrook, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars

Dede Westbrook, WR, Jacksonville Jaguars BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 27.9%

Week 14 stats: Seven receptions, 88 receiving yards, one touchdown — 21.8 fantasy points

One thing to know: Dede Westbrook appears to have found a rhythm with Cody Kessler after a few games together, and should have a good chance at another big day next week with Washington playing the Jaguars in Jacksonville.

DaeSean Hamilton, WR, Denver Broncos

DaeSean Hamilton, WR, Denver Broncos BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 5.5%

Week 14 stats: Seven receptions, 47 receiving yards, one touchdown — 17.7 fantasy points

One thing to know:

Robby Anderson, WR, New York Jets

Robby Anderson, WR, New York Jets BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 14.7%

Week 14 stats: Four receptions, 76 receiving yards, one touchdown — 17.6 fantasy points

One thing to know: Robby Anderson has largely been a disappointment this season, but had one of his best games of the year against the Bills on Sunday. With seven targets, he is a part of the Jets' game plan but is likely a desperation move for your fantasy team.

Ian Thomas, TE, Carolina Panthers

Ian Thomas, TE, Carolina Panthers BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 25.5%

Week 14 stats: Nine receptions, 77 receiving yards — 16.7 fantasy points

One thing to know: Greg Olsen may be gone, but the Panthers offense is still working to get the ball to their tight end. With nine receptions on Sunday, Ian Thomas is a great addition for PPR players.

Dallas Goedert, TE, Philadelphia Eagles

Dallas Goedert, TE, Philadelphia Eagles BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 2.2%

Week 14 stats: Four receptions, 44 receiving yards, one touchdown — 14.4 fantasy points

One thing to know: While Zach Ertz is the top guy in the Eagles' pass game, Goedert has consistently gotten red zone looks for Philadelphia and would have scored twice on Sunday if not for a questionable penalty bringing his 75-yard touchdown back late in the fourth quarter.

New York Giants Defense

New York Giants Defense BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 16%

Week 14 stats: 16 points against, three interceptions, five sacks, one touchdown — 20 fantasy points

One thing to know: The Giants have been one of the top two defenses in fantasy for two straight weeks now, and next week they face the Titans, who have been far from consistent when it comes to scoring.

Detroit Lions Defense

Detroit Lions Defense BusinessInsider

ESPN fantasy ownership: 24.4%

Week 14 stats: Three points against, one interception, three sacks, one touchdown — 17 fantasy points

One thing to know: The Lions defense has been solid for three weeks now, and heads to Buffalo next Sunday. If you're streaming defenses for the postseason, Detroit is worth a look.
