Let’s break down 10 wide receiver sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 13.
Week 13 of the NFL season will mark the bye week for the Arizona Cardinals and Carolina Panthers. As a result, several impactful fantasy football wide receivers, including DeAndre Hopkins, Marquise Brown, and D.J. Moore, will be unavailable.
If you are looking for a sleeper, here are ten options. Every player listed is widely available in ESPN leagues.
10. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 13: Kendall Hinton, Denver Broncos
Rostered: 0.6%
In the absence of Jerry Jeudy, Hinton has played an expanded role. He had five receptions for 35 yards on nine targets last Sunday. It is extremely difficult to trust any receiver in the Broncos offense right now, but Hinton’s target share makes him an intriguing pickup in deeper leagues.
Jeudy is listed as questionable, and he did not practice on Thursday. If Jeudy is ruled out, Hinton will have value this week.
9. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 13: Quez Watkins, Philadelphia Eagles
Rostered: 1.0%
Watkins has scored a touchdown in back-to-back games. In Week 11, he had two receptions for 31 yards and a touchdown on two targets. In Week 13, he had three receptions for 35 yards and a touchdown on five targets. With Dallas Goedert on IR, he has seen an increase in usage, but he is still not playing a massive role. He is a touchdown-dependent streaming option.
This week, he has some extra appeal as he takes on the Tennessee Titans, who are allowing the second-most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers this season.
