Here’s a little peek behind the curtain of what it’s like to write this column on Wednesdays when teams are practicing for the first time all week. I might like a player, but I have to wait for his injury status in certain cases to see if he’s worth mentioning as a start.<\/p>\n

That was the case with D’Onta Foreman for Week 14. I like him a lot this week with his matchup at Seattle, and I even considered him as the Start of the Week. But he missed practice Wednesday with a foot injury, so I didn’t even mention him in the running back Start ‘Em & Sit ‘Em<\/span>which we published earlier in the day.<\/p>\n

Then, Foreman said he feels like he is “95 percent sure” he will play against the Seahawks, so I’m more encouraged by his status. So now, I’ll write about him here, but make sure you check the Panthers’ practice reports leading up to Sunday. If Foreman is out, Chuba Hubbard would be worth starting in all leagues.<\/p>\n

Here was my initial write-up for Foreman:<\/p>\n

Foreman was great in his last game against Denver in Week 12 with 24 carries for 113 yards. He now has four games with at least 100 rushing yards and at least 11 PPR points in the seven games since the Panthers traded Christian McCaffrey to the 49ers.<\/p>\n

This week, Foreman should stay hot against the Seahawks, who have been awful against opposing running backs of late. In Seattle’s last three games against Tampa Bay, Las Vegas and the Rams, the Seahawks have allowed six total touchdowns and four running backs to score at least 12 PPR points. Foreman is a solid No. 2 running back in all leagues with top-10 upside.<\/p>\n

Let’s hope he stays healthy so I don’t have to do many edits to this column. Good luck with all your lineup decisions in Week 14.<\/p>\n

Swift popped up on the injury report Wednesday as being limited with an ankle problem, but I don’t have any worries about his status. That’s because he was on Fantasy Football Today on CBS Sports HQ on Tuesday, and he told me in our interview he feels great.<\/p>\n

He looked great in Week 13 against Jacksonville when he played 51 percent of the snaps and had 14 carries for 62 yards and a touchdown and four catches for 49 yards. It was the most work he’s had since Week 1, and he said the ankle and shoulder weapons he’s dealt with this season should be in the past.<\/p>\n

And now he’s ready for his matchup with the Vikings, who have allowed five running backs to score at least 16 PPR points in the past four games, including Devin Singletary, Tony Pollard, Ezekiel Elliott, Rhamondre Stevenson and Zonovan Knight. Those running backs combined for six touchdowns, and Pollard, Stevenson and Knight each had over 100 total yards.<\/p>\n

Swift should have the chance to finish as a top-10 Fantasy running back in Week 14. Jamaal Williams will likely find the end zone — he has 14 rushing touchdowns this year — but Swift has a higher ceiling if his workload from Week 13 Carry over to this week.<\/p>\n

It should also be a high-scoring contest in Detroit, and the Lions have played themselves into playoff contention, making this an important game. Fantasy managers are happy to see Swift healthy again with the Fantasy playoffs on the horizon, and he should be a great Fantasy option in all leagues for Week 14.<\/p>\n

Chiefs (at DEN)<\/strong><\/p>\n

Russell Wilson has been bad for the Broncos offense this season but great for opposing defenses, and the Chiefs DST should benefit this week. Denver has scored 16 points or less in four games in a row, and Wilson has been sacked at least three times in four of his past five games, with 17 total sacks over that span. The Chiefs DST just had a similar matchup like this in Week 12 against the Rams and gave up 10 points with three sacks and two interceptions. I like the Chiefs DST as a top-five unit in Week 14.<\/p>\n
