10 Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Targets Heading Into Week 13

Carlos Hyde, RB, Jacksonville Jaguars

Leonard Fournette got himself ejected in Week 12 for throwing punches, and there's a non-zero percent chance he gets slapped with a suspension of some kind.

If Fournette gets banned for a game, Carlos Hyde would be next in line for an offense that desperately wants to pass as little as possible. Hyde carried the rock 10 times in Sunday's loss at Buffalo. While he is averaging a mere 3.4 yards per run in his four games with the Jaguars, volume alone would put him on at least the flex radar if Fournette is out.

If the Jags fall behind, Hyde would be at risk of getting game-scripted out in favor of T.J. Yeldon, but Jacksonville's Week 13 matchup is a home date with the Colts, a game which should be a tight affair (Jags are 2.5-point 'dogs, per early lines).

Hyde isn't as much of a priority add as the other backs on this list, but if we get news of a Fournette suspension, he'd be an appealing pickup for Week 13.
