Injuries and bye weeks continue to leave holes in our rosters, so Sam Wallace has dropped by with his favorite Week 14 fantasy football sleepers to help you fill those voids.

We've reached the final week of the fantasy regular season. For most leagues, the playoffs will run from Weeks 15-17, which means this is your last chance to either secure a playoff spot or hang onto that coveted first-round bye.

There's only one problem—there are six NFL teams on bye this week. The Ravens, Broncos, Texans, Colts, Patriots, and Commanders will enjoy their week off as fantasy managers scramble to fill roster spots ahead of the most important week of the season.

Here are several sleepers for you to consider ahead of Week 14.

Top Fantasy Football Sleeper For Week 14

Adam Thielen, WR

  • @ Philadelphia Eagles
  • 72% available

Maybe the Panthers were onto something when they selected Bryce Young ahead of C.J. Stroud last season.

I know, I know, it's easy to become a prisoner of the moment, but it's been awesome to see Young's progression over the last several weeks. I'm sure he's glad to have Adam Thielen back in the fold as well. The 34-year-old veteran popped off last weekend to the tune of 8/99/1 on 10 targets and even left some production on the field.

With so many viable fantasy options on bye this weekend, Thielen could be the lifeline your squad needs to make that final push into the postseason.

It's easy to forget just how dominant Thielen was for fantasy at the start of last season. Despite the fact that so much attention was given to Young and his struggles, Thielen was a fantasy superstar to open the 2023 campaign.

<a target=

From Weeks 2-11 of last season, Thielen averaged nearly 19 fantasy points per game and rarely came off the field. The target-earning monster was putting up elite numbers for the rookie QB, and he looks ready to close out this season much the same way.

Regardless of your league size, format, or scoring, Thielen needs to be on your roster heading into Week 14.

More Sleepers For Fantasy Football Week 14

Russell Wilson, QB

  • vs. Cleveland Browns
  • 57% available

Lamar Jackson. Bo Nix. Anthony Richardson. Drake Maye. Jayden Daniels. Toss in the aforementioned Stroud and those are the QBs who are unavailable this weekend.

At least it's not the first week of the playoffs. Yay?

He doesn't care if you like his antics or appreciate his persona; Russell Wilson is going to win people some fantasy championships this season. After blitzing the admittedly poor Bengals defense last weekend, Wilson looks every bit the part of a franchise QB.

<a target=

Ignore the previous numbers in his most recent game against Cleveland (weather was a much bigger factor than it's projected to be this weekend) and prioritize Wilson if you need to fill your QB1 (or QB2) slot.

It's been awesome watching Mr. Unlimited revitalize his career under Mike Tomlin as the Steelers suddenly find themselves in position to make a potentially deep playoff run. Let Wilson also carry your fantasy team for one more week as you gear up for your own playoff run.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, WR

  • vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
  • 80% available

I … I don't even know what to say.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has shattered every rule (law) of regression this season. If you haven't been paying attention, the fifth-year player, who never topped 40 receptions or 480 receiving yards in any of his previous seasons, has scored eight TDs in his last eight games.

Eight. Touchdowns.

To make matters worse (or better), he's scored those eight TDs on just 20 measly receptions. He can't keep getting away with this, right? Right?!

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me eight times? I might have to finally get on board. If you are truly desperate for a plug-and-play option this weekend, I have a wonderful timeshare for you to consider. Just don't be surprised when the fantasy gods, in their cruel sense of humor, decide to have Westbrook-Ikhine put up a giant zero in the most important week of the season.

It could be fun, but don't say I didn't warn you.

Pat Freiermuth, TE

  • vs. Cleveland Browns
  • 58% available

The resurgence of Wilson and the rest of the Steelers offense has led to Pat Freiermuth finally becoming a fantasy-viable TE. He's now up to four TDs on the season and has either a TD or 55+ receiving yards in three of his last four games.

<a target=

He's not as widely available as some other options at the position, but he's firmly entrenched as a key component of a suddenly high-powered offense. If you are desperate, you could do much worse than someone who is available in over half of leagues.

Juwan Johnson, TE

  • @ New York Giants
  • 95% available

The New Orleans Saints are running out of weapons, fast. With Taysom Hill out for the year, it falls to Juwan Johnson to step up as the pass-catching TE. Even before his Week 12 bye, Johnson was beginning to turn it on a little bit.

<a target=

He stepped up in a big way once Hill went down, posting season-high marks across the board. It's especially important to note his route participation, target share, air yards share, and Utilization Score. Each of those, if they hold strong, could firmly place Johnson into your starting lineups this weekend.

Dwain McFarland even went so far as to say, “Johnson UPGRADES to mid-range TE2 territory and offers low-end TE1 upside if his route participation holds.”
