There is only a three-game late slate for Week 14 but there are some really good plays in that small-sized slate. Let’s take a look at who you can play here to make your DFS pay off in a big way. We will take a look at some great plays for the Late Slate right now!
Week 14 NFL DFS for the Late Slate
Quarterbacks
Josh Allen
In Week 13 Allen literally did it all. He threw, caught, and rushed for a touchdown in one game. In Week 14 he is playing the Rams. The Rams are a middle-of-the-pack defense against the pass. They do not defend the run well at all. I expect Allen to run one in this week as well. Look for him to do a little of it all as the Bills look to get win number 12 on the season.

Caleb Williams
Since the coaching changes in Chicago, Williams has passed for 596 yards and 5 touchdowns in the last two games. He has also rushed for over 30 yards in each of those games. This week, Williams will play the Niners which is a bad matchup on paper. But when you dig a little deeper you see that they have given up multiple touchdowns to quarterbacks in each of the past two games. Williams is a sneaky good play in Week 14.

Running Backs
Kyren Williams
Kyren Williams has been the definition of consistency this season, scoring at least eight fantasy points in every game. In Week 14, he faces a Bills defense that defends the pass well but struggles against the run, allowing the third-most fantasy points to running backs.
Williams is set to be heavily involved, both as a ball carrier and a pass-catcher out of the backfield—exactly the kind of usage the Bills’ defense tends to allow. With touches likely funneled his way, Kyren is a rock-solid option once again this week.

James Cook
In Week 13 Cook ripped the Niners for 107 yards and a touchdown. In Week 14 he gets to play the Rams. The Rams give up the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing teams running backs. Cook has scored double-digit fantasy points in eight out of 11 games he has played this season. Against poor running defenses he has averaged over 15 fantasy points per game this season. He should hit that in Week 14. James will be cooking.

Travis Homer
I wrote about D’Andre Swift in Money Makers and Heart Breakers. That was before he missed his second day of practice. Roschon Johnson also missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday. If both of those guys are out, Homer is the next guy up. He gets a tasty match-up against the Niners who give up the sixth most fantasy points to opposing teams running backs. Running backs average 95 yards and a touchdown rushing against the Niners. Travis takes me home.

Isaac Guerendo
The waiver wire darling Guerendo is here to save your fantasy season. Well, that is unlikely. But he does get to play a Bears defense in Week 14 that gives up the 10th most fantasy points to running backs. I am all for paying down for Isaac in DFS this week.

Wide Receivers
Keenan Allen
Keenan Allen may be the receiver that has benefited the most from the coaching changes in Chicago. In the past two games, he has 23 targets, 14 receptions 159 yards, and 3 touchdowns. The Niners defend the pass well, but the volume will be there to pick Allen up in Week 14.

Khalil Shakir
Shakir leads the Bills in targets this season with 76. That is a 20% target share. The Rams are fairly generous when it comes to allowing wide receivers production. Look for Shakir to see those targets this week as usual for the Bills.

DJ Moore
I know, I know, I already said to play Keenan Allen. Well, DJ Moore has seen 23 targets in the past two weeks as well. He has turned that into 15 receptions, 203 yards and 2 touchdowns. One touchdown each week. I am trusting the volume with these guys and looking at a double stack.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba
In Week 14 the Seahawks will play the Cardinals. They just played in Week 12. JSN, let’s call him JSN for short, had 7 targets, 6 receptions, 77 yards and a touchdown in that game. It is no fluke that JSN had production that day. He leads the Seahawks in targets with 97. JSN also leads the Seahawks with receiving yards (829) and touchdowns (4). These guys with hyphenated last names seem to be producing all over the place at wide receiver lately.

Tight Ends
Trey McBride
McBride leads the Cardinals in target share with 26% of the targets. That is a total of 92 targets. He also leads the Cardinals in receiving yards. Shockingly he has not caught a touchdown this season. The Cardinals’ opponent this week is the Seahawks. They last played in Week 12. In Tha game McBride saw 15 targets. He caught 12 of them for 133 yards. In Week 13 he saw 12 more targets and caught them all for 96 yards. History repeats itself in Week 14.

Dawson Knox
Dalton Kincaid last played in Week 10. This means Knox will most likely be getting the start for the Bills again in Week 14. Knox is not being heavily involved in the passing attack but, he has over 40 yards in three straight games. The Rams, who give up the eighth most fantasy points to tight ends, are the opponent in Week 14. HE is a nice floor play this week, and let’s face it everyone loves a little floor play to get us going.

Defense
Cardinals
The Cardinals’ defense is shaping up to be a strong play for Week 14 after posting 11 fantasy points against the Seahawks in Week 12. The Seahawks have been generous to opposing defenses, allowing the fifth-most fantasy points per game. Over their last four games, the Cardinals have racked up an impressive 19 sacks, and they’ll have plenty of chances to pressure Geno Smith again.
