Cincinnati Bengals

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has arguably been the league's top signal-caller during the 2024-25 campaign. The AFC Player of the Month has been stellar, throwing for 3,337 yards, 30 touchdowns, and five interceptions while completing 67.7% of his throws. However, his efficiency hasn't resulted in a winning record for Cincinnati. With the Bengals barely clinging on to hope of making the playoffs, Burrow and company will try to keep the team alive by earning a win over the Cowboys on Monday night. With the Dallas defense allowing 28.3 points per game this season, Burrow should be in line for a potent fantasy showing. His ceiling will increase even more if Nick Vigil (foot) and Trevon Diggs (knee) aren't on the field in Week 14.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has been banged up this season. However, he has been productive during his seven appearances, catching 43 of his 68 targets for 558 yards and five touchdowns. With the Bengals barely holding on to playoff hopes, the wideout will need to remain productive the rest of the way. Fortunately, Higgins has a favorable matchup against a Cowboys defense that has struggled during the 2024-25 campaign. The Dallas defense may have more issues if Nick Vigil (foot) and Trevon Diggs (knee) aren't available, with both players carrying questionable tags heading into Monday's contest.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (ankle) began the week by logging a limited practice session on Thursday. However, he practiced in full the last two days and no longer carries an injury designation heading into the Monday Night Football meeting with the Cowboys. The 2021 No. 5 overall pick is the best wide receiver in the National Football League, catching 79 passes for 1,142 yards and 13 touchdowns. Unfortunately, his success on the field hasn't resulted in a winning record, with the Bengals not expected to make the postseason. But there is still hope, so Chase will remain a top fantasy option versus a Dallas defense that has allowed 28.3 points per game this season, the third-worst mark in the league.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (ankle), who was limited in the team's first practice of the week on Thursday, upgraded to a full practice session on Friday. Chase should be just fine to be ready to play on Monday night in Dallas against the Cowboys to close out Week 14 action. Although the Bengals as a whole have been a huge disappointment, the 24-year-old Chase is cementing himself as one of the best wideouts in the league, if not the best. The LSU product has developed an even stronger chemistry with quarterback Joe Burrow and leads all receivers in overall PPR fantasy points thanks to 79 receptions on 109 targets for a league-high 1,142 receiving yards and a league-high 13 touchdowns scored in 12 starts in 2024. Chase is unlikely to carry an injury designation in Monday's contest against Dallas and is a must-start everywhere.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (ankle) opened the week as a limited participant during Thursday's practice. Fantasy managers should not be overly concerned with the superstar's status but should continue to monitor his status ahead of Monday's tilt against the Dallas Cowboys. Last weekend, Chase continued his stellar campaign by bringing in six of his nine targets for 86 yards and a score during their loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Overall, the LSU product has averaged a stellar 95.2 yards per game with 13 TDs across 12 games. Fantasy managers should continue to view Chase as a high-end WR1 in all matchups and a top option in DFS. On Monday, he has a great matchup against the Cowboys, who have allowed the 12th-most PPR points to opposing wideouts this season.
