Week 13 fantasy football quarterback rankings: Sit 'Em

Here are the quarterbacks you should consider benching in Fantasy football in Week 13.

Russell Wilson, Seattle Seahawks vs. San Francisco 49ers

Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks suffered yet another tough loss in Week 12, this time to the Washington Football Team. He has not looked his usual self since returning from a finger injury and the Seahawks are thus in the basement of the NFC West.

His reputation needs to be thrown out the window when setting up a fantasy football lineup for Week 13. The opponent is the San Francisco 49ers, but that does not matter. Wilson does not have it this year and proved that again Monday night. It is best to avoid him in fantasy football until 2022.

Kyler Murray, Arizona Cardinals vs. Chicago Bears

Kyler Murray showing up in this section has nothing to do with his overall NFL abilities. It just has to do with the fact he has not played in weeks and his status is still not determined for Week 13.

Murray has been given time to rest his ankle injury and the Arizona Cardinals have gone 2-1 in his absence. Given he has missed so much time, he may be eased into action upon his return. James Conner can carry the load on offense and the Cardinals can wait another week or two before letting Murray take over the offense once again. The same is true for fantasy football owners relying on Murray again.

The Cardinals should still take home an easy win in Week 13. Yet fantasy football owners need to be cautious with Murray until he proves he is fully back.

Kirk Cousins, Minnesota Vikings vs. Detroit Lions

It is easy to see Kirk Cousins taking on the lowly Detroit Lions this week and assume he will put up huge numbers. But it may not play out like that.

The Minnesota Vikings took on the Lions earlier this year and it was a close game, with the Vikings taking home a 19-17 win. Cousins only had 275 yards and a touchdown, along with an interception.

The Lions are winless, but they do play hard and nearly beat the Vikings once already this season. Cousins has had sporadic great performances this year, but fantasy football owners want consistency this late in the season. It may be best to seek help elsewhere to avoid being frustrated by Cousins playing average against the Lions.
