Pittsburgh Steelers

After a hot stretch in the middle of the campaign, Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris has quieted down in recent weeks with fewer than 70 rushing yards in three straight contests. He could struggle again in Week 13 in a tough divisional matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bengals give up plenty of points to opposing teams but have been shutting down the running game for most of the season. It is worth noting, however, that Cincinnati has surrendered the fifth-most rushing touchdowns to running backs. With Jaylen Warren mixing in to split touches with Harris, it's difficult to project Harris for a lot of yardage on Sunday, so fantasy managers may be disappointed with his output unless he falls into the end zone. Because of this, Harris should be viewed as just a low-end RB2 in most formats.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson has struggled over the past two weeks and will hope to bounce back against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 13. In addition to surrendering the fifth-most points in the NFL, Cincinnati allows the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks. Although AFC North matchups involving Pittsburgh tend to be low-scoring defensive battles, this contest is projected for a healthy amount of points with a 47.5-point over/under. Wilson hasn't been consistent enough as a starter this season to warrant consideration in single-quarterback fantasy formats, but he is certainly a viable QB2 with upside in superflex leagues.

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell connected on two of his three field goal attempts and drilled his lone extra-point try in a 24-19 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Boswell's 58-yard attempt on Pittsburgh's first possession of the contest was just his second missed field goal of the season. He later found success from 48 and 28 yards out despite consistent winds and snowfall in Cleveland. Although fantasy managers who were treated to Boswell's superb Week 11 performance may be disappointed in his showing on Thursday night, the 33-year-old proved that he can still offer a solid floor for fantasy in poor weather conditions. He'll continue to project as a high-end option heading into a Week 13 meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth finished with four receptions for 59 yards on four targets in a Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns. Although he didn't have a great fantasy performance, Freiermuth managed his highest yardage total of the campaign and was more involved offensively than in previous contests with Russell Wilson under center. The 26-year-old cannot be relied upon in most redraft leagues but could be an interesting streaming candidate down the stretch with plenty of enticing matchups coming up. He'll look to earn more opportunities against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 12.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III logged three receptions for 78 yards and a touchdown on three targets in a Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns. He was a bright spot for a Pittsburgh offense that otherwise struggled on Thursday night. He made an impact early on by catching a 46-yard deep ball in the second quarter that set up an eventual field goal. Austin's third touchdown of the campaign, a 23-yard strike over the middle of the field, was quarterback Russell Wilson's first touchdown pass in nearly eight quarters and gave Pittsburgh a 19-18 lead with just over six minutes remaining. The 25-year-old has flashed some potential this season working opposite George Pickens. While he is not on the fantasy radar in most redraft formats, Austin is worth stashing in deeper dynasty leagues. A matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals is on tap for Week 12.
