Week 12 Fantasy Football Rankings: Wide Receivers /

Welcome to Week 12 of the fantasy football season!

With three games on Thanksgiving and one on Friday, the most important thing to remember this week is that you need to set those lineups early. As always. I’ve used a full-point PPR scoring system, which you can use in addition to the Week 12 edition of Start Em, Sit Em.

At Sports Illustrated, we always have you covered!

At wide receiver, A.J. Brown is in the top five even after last week’s stinker against the Chiefs. Puka Nacua moves up into the top 10 with Cooper Kupp injured, while Ja’Marr Chase and Garrett Wilson both take a dive with their respective situations at quarterback. Tank Dell, on the flip side, continues to rise up the rank lists.

Be sure to check back for updates … and Happy Thanksgiving!
