Week 14 of the 2024 fantasy football season kicks off with a Thursday Night Football showdown between the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions. Both offenses have performed well this year and include many strong options for weekly lineups. Here are some of the best targets and fades in what could be a potential shootout.

Packers vs Lions TNF Fantasy Football Week 14 Start 'Em picks

Jayden Reed has been inconsistent in the 2024 fantasy football season, but he has flashed his elite weekly upside in the right situations. This includes finishing among the top 25 weekly wide receivers six times in 12 games for the Packers. One of those was a WR19 finish against the Lions in their first meeting this season on Nov. 3, giving Reed plenty of upside for this game that is projected to be high-scoring.

He is joined by David Montgomery, who is having another strong season for the Lions. He has scored 11 touchdowns in 12 games, including at least one in 10 of them. He also recorded his second-most touches and scrimmage yards last week against the Chicago Bears, so Montgomery has momentum entering this matchup.

Packers vs Lions TNF Fantasy Football Week 14 Sit 'Em picks

Using Sportskeeda's Who Should I Start tool is one of the best ways to determine which players to target and fade for lineups each week. This valuable tool gives lineup suggestions and fantasy projections to make these crucial decisions easier. Managers who utilize it regularly often gain a significant advantage over the rest of their competition, resulting in better odds of winning fantasy leagues.

The generator has identified Jared Goff as a player to fade in this Thursday Night Football matchup. When the Packers and Lions first met five weeks ago, Goff turned in a disappointing QB27 finish. He has also finished better than QB12 just four times in 12 games this year, contributing to why he is better left on the bench for Week 14 fantasy football lineups.
