It’s crunch time, folks. Week 14 marks the final week of the regular season for most fantasy football leagues. With playoffs around the corner and six teams on bye, you may need to dig deeper to find quarterbacks who can bolster your fantasy lineups this week. But don’t sweat it. The Week 14 quarterback rankings will put you in the best position to succeed with playoff spots on the line. Good luck!
Quarterbacks on Bye in Week 14
Lamar Jackson, Bo Nix, C.J. Stroud, Anthony Richardson, Drake Maye, Jayden Daniels
Injury Notes for Week 14
- Trevor Lawrence is in the league’s concussion protocol after taking an unnecessary hit to the head in Week 13. His Week 14 status is unclear. Mac Jones will suit up if Lawrence misses time.
- Matthew Stafford suffered a lateral ankle sprain last week but is expected to make his start against the Bills in Week 14.
Quarterback Notes
Bye Weeks: BAL, DEN, HOU, IND, NE, WAS
- Sam Darnold has been one of the steadier quarterbacks of late. He has scored over 18.2 fantasy points in five of his last six games. Plus, his 1,582 passing yards and 11 passing touchdowns in that span are good for eighth- and fifth-best at the position, respectively. Darnold should continue to produce in Week 14. He faces a leaky Falcons defense that’s ceded the fourth-most passing touchdowns to the position. Additionally, opposing quarterbacks are averaging 21.1 fantasy points against Atlanta this year. Darnold is a strong start this week and ranks as QB6 in the Week 14 quarterback rankings.
- Russell Wilson is coming off his best start of the season, hanging 414 passing yards and three touchdowns on the Bengals in Week 13. He’ll look to keep things going against a Browns defense giving up 20.6 fantasy points to quarterbacks this year. Cleveland has had trouble containing the pass recently, ceding an average of 276.6 passing yards in the past five weeks. The defense has also allowed multiple touchdowns in three of those five games. Wilson last faced the Browns in Week 12 and scored just 13.8 fantasy points. However, despite snow impacting the game, Wilson still threw for 270 yards and a touchdown. Wilson is a back-end QB1 in the Week 14 quarterback rankings.
- Will Levis has hit his stride recently. He’s thrown multiple touchdowns in three of his last four games, averaging 240 passing yards and 16.8 fantasy points in that stretch. Up next is a juicy matchup against a Jacksonville team allowing the most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. The Jaguars have been especially vulnerable in the air, allowing the second-most passing yards and touchdowns to signal-callers through 12 weeks. They’ve also been beatable on the ground, ceding the third-most rushing yards to the position. While Levis isn’t a huge rushing threat, he averages just over 19 ground yards per game and could take advantage. Levis is a top-tier QB2 in the Week 14 quarterback rankings and is a solid option if you’re in a bind at the position this week.
- Aidan O’Connell surprised in his Week 13 start against the Chiefs, throwing for 340 yards and two touchdowns. He should be able to follow that up with another strong showing in Week 14, as he has one of the better matchups on paper this week. O’Connell faces a Buccaneers team allowing 23.4 fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks on the year (second-most). Tampa Bay has also ceded the third-most passing yards and is tied for the fourth-most passing touchdowns allowed to the position. Game script will likely require O’Connell to throw a lot this week, and he could make some noise. There’s risk here, but it’s slim pickings at the quarterback position this week. O’Connell is a nice Week 14 streamer in two-quarterback leagues.
