NFL byes Week 13: Ravens, Colts, Raiders and Jets

Four teams are on bye in Week 13 of the 2026 NFL season: the Baltimore Ravens, Indianapolis Colts, Las Vegas Raiders and New York Jets. That takes 21 ranked fantasy players off the field, led by Brock Bowers (TE2), Jonathan Taylor (RB5) and Garrett Wilson (WR8). Below is every player you lose, by position, and the best ranked replacements outside the usual starter range who do play that week.

  • TE is hit hardest: Brock Bowers (TE2), Tyler Warren (TE5) and Mark Andrews (TE11) are off, 3 of the top 12 at the position.
  • The Raiders take the most fantasy players with them: 6.
  • Four team defenses are off too, so a defense and a kicker may need streaming.
