It’s crunch time in fantasy football.
A little scouting and you can avoid a crucial late-season loss or do just enough to cross the finish line with a win this week. We’ve got you covered with a quick scouting report to help you out.
Here are five sleepers to start and five starters you’ve got to sit in fantasy football Week 13:
Starts
QB Nick Foles
Since returning to the starting lineup, Nick Foles hasn’t won. But that doesn’t mean he hasn’t been productive. He’s completing 68 percent of his passes this season and has two scores and a pick in two games since returning, including a 296-yard outing. In Week 13, he’s facing the Buccaneers, the second-worst pass defense in the NFL, who’ve also allowed 26 passing scores. Because of their poor secondary, the Bucs have gotten into some shootouts this year, too. Bodes well for Foles and his decent weapons he has to work with.
RB Ronald Jones
Speaking of the Jaguars, you might want to go with Ronald Jones instead of a guy like Jameis Winston in this matchup. Jones is fresh off a productive 4.3 yards per carry (51 yards) and touchdown outing against the Falcons last week, who’ve had their fair share of defensive struggles this year. In the Jags, Jones is facing the No. 29 overall run defense, which also allows a league-worst 5.4 yards per carry and has surrendered 15 rushing scores.
