Six teams are on a bye, including the Buffalo Bills who handed the defending back-to-back Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs their first loss last weekend. The other teams off this week are the Atlanta Falcons, Cincinnati Bengals, New Orleans Saints, New York Jets and Jacksonville Jaguars.
That said, DAZN lists players you should target on fantasy football waivers for Week 12.
Quarterbacks
Bo Nix
The Las Vegas Raiders gave up 288 yards and three touchdowns in the air in a loss to Tua Tagovailoa and the Miami Dolphins last week.
That makes the Denver Broncos’ rookie quarterback Nix an attractive pickup off the waivers this week.
Anthony Richardson
If you’re in a bind this week, consider the Indianapolis Colts’ quarterback.
Richardson had an eye-opening 272 yards passing and a touchdown last week in a late win over the New York Jets and while the Colts’ matchup this week in the Detroit Lions is a tough one, Indy is fighting for their playoff lives.
At 5-6, they will be desperately trying to return to .500.
Jameis Winston
The Cleveland Browns’ season is a wash at 2-8. But Jameis Winston is still available in a majority of fantasy leagues and should be a real option coming off a 395 yards passing, two-touchdown performance last week in a loss to the New Orleans Saints.
The Pittsburgh Steelers are a much better team, but Winston can air it out freely with nothing to lose.
Running backs
Roschon Johnson
Quiet as kept, Johnson had a nice fantasy performance last week with 33 rushing yards and a touchdown on 10 carries in a Chicago Bears’ close loss to the Green Bay Packers.
What will he be able to do against another NFC North rival at home against the Minnesota Vikings this week? It’s possible for Johnson to deliver a very similar performance with those kind of touches.
Jaylen Warren
The Steelers’ Warren’s 41 yards rushing on nine carries last week could see an uptick against the lowly Browns this week.

Trey Benson
Ten carries for 62 yards is a promising enough workload that could see an uptick in an NFC West division matchup when his Arizona Cardinals clash with the Seattle Seahawks this weekend.
Wide receivers
Quentin Johnston
I told you about Johnston a few times here and if you haven’t taken heed just yet, make sure you do this week.
The Los Angeles Chargers’ wideout has delivered a receiving touchdown for three weeks straight now, including the TD he hauled in last week in a win against the Cincinnati Bengals.
I like him for another receiving TD — or two — against the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football.
Marques Valdes-Scantling
Valdes-Scantling was another player mentioned here. Last week, he posted two receptions for 87 yards and a touchdown for the Saints.
Like Johnston, it’d be a great idea to snatch Valdes-Scantling off the waivers this week.
Rome Odunze
The rookie wideout is being trusted more and more in the Bears’ offense.
He’s coming off of a weekend where he was targeted 10 times, delivering six receptions for 65 yards.
Expect a similar or greater performance against the Minnesota Vikings this week.
