If you’re setting your Week 13 DFS lineups and looking for salary relief, you’ve come to the right place.
Today’s list features players that are considered bargains based on what they could return. Use these options and spend up for players such as Tyreek Hill or Najee Harris this week, and we bet you’ll be glad you did.
Let’s take a look.

Quarterbacks
Russell Wilson, Broncos
We are hoping for a shootout between Wilson and C.J. Stroud and though there may not be a super high ceiling for Wilson, he should at least be able to get you a solid floor.

Alabama vs. Georgia for the SEC title, and a likely College Football Playoff berth. Sound familiar?
It’s a last-of-its-kind SEC championship game featuring East vs. West. Of the Power 5’s title games: The Pac-12 title game is a unique swan song, the Big Ten has its Harbaugh hysterics, the wind is out of the ACC’s sails, and the Big 12 has the likelihood to be a blowout, while the SEC’s run-up feels the most familiar. It’s two good teams getting together in Atlanta. We’ve done this particular game four out of the last six seasons.

The NFL pulled the credential of Kevin Fitzgibbons, a videographer who covers the Miami Dolphins, following Tyreek Hill’s viral backflip touchdown celebration against the Carolina Panthers in October. Everyone sees the ridiculousness of the situation, including Hill, who is stepping up and paying the salary of the media member now out of a job.
“I told him I was gonna cover his salary, whatever the NFL was gonna pay him. I told him I was going to make sure that I do what’s right and take care of (Fitzgibbons),” Hill said, per USA Today. “Make sure you’re not out of a job.

EA Sports’ upcoming college football game is racing towards being released this summer.
The video game company stunned people in February 2021 when it was announced a new college football video game would be released for the first time since 2013.
Legal issues involving name, likeness and no compensation caused the popular series to be halted indefinitely. However, the game changed with the announcement nearly three years ago, and players will now be paid an amount that remains undetermined at this time.

This call, like so many calls from 2008, was beyond strange. It had been prearranged, by a source, for someone other than the source to phone on a scheduled day at an appointed time. I would never know the identity of this person, and they would tell me which games were on the videotapes at the center of an investigation into the Patriots.
For those of us who lived Spygate, who reported and wrote amid lakes of misinformation and more than a few death threats, reaction to Michigan’s recent scandal fell somewhere between two questions.

The quarterback turnstile for the Cleveland Browns continues this week because rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson is in the concussion protocol and has missed the first two days of practice in preparation for Sunday’s game at the Los Angeles Rams.
The Browns haven’t ruled out Thompson Robinson. And haven’t, as of this writing, officially said Joe Flacco is starting.
But OutKick contributor Dr. David Chao, who served 17 years as the San Diego Chargers team doctor, knows how this goes: DTR is sitting. And Flacco is the starter against the Rams.

There are many problems with allowing trans-identifying biological males to compete against women and girls. Of course, there’s the competitive advantage that males enjoy, enabling them to dominate their female counterparts. But, there’s a more important reason why it needs to end: safety.
On Thursday, Reduxx reported a story of a 17-year-old female who suffered a concussion at a California high school in October after a trans-identifying opponent (biological male) spiked a ball into her face.

Welcome to December football.
This weekend, the NFL has a dozen games going off between Sunday and Monday. Of those contests, only the Patriots-Chargers has two teams that are more than one game out of their respective playoff pictures.
So what is going to determine the key games of the weekend? Let’s run through the slate.
Indianapolis Colts (6–5) vs. Tennessee Titans (4–7)
Key matchup: Tennessee’s offensive line vs. Colts’ front four
The Colts have won three straight, and if they make it four, look for the defensive line to play a big part.

Mitchell Robinson’s former high school coach shared a touching story of how he became roommates with the Knicks center.
Mitchell Robinson’s high school coach was interviewed by sideline reporter Rebecca Haarlow during the second quarter of the New York Knicks vs. Detroit Pistons game on Thursday night, and shared a beautiful and touching story about his former player.
Butch Stockton coached Robinson at Louisiana’s Chalmette High School where he became recognized as a five-star recruit and future pro.

Thursday night’s Seattle Seahawks – Dallas Cowboys contest was more of an officiating showcase with a little football mixed in, and Seattle head coach Pete Carroll wasn’t thrilled about the ref show that broke out.
The flags were aplenty in Jerry World during the Cowboys’ 41-35 win. The two teams combined for 19 penalties for a total of 257 penalty yards. The Seahawks led the charge with 10 flags for 130 yards in penalties with the Cowboys picking up nine flags of their own.
