The fantasy football playoffs have begun, and through the first round, it’s a lot of familiar names at the top of the wide receiver hierarchy.
USA TODAY NETWORK-Wisconsin-USA TODAY Sports
In Week 14, the highest-scoring fantasy receivers were Antonio Brown and DeAndre Hopkins, who just so happened to rank first and second there through the first 13 weeks.
However, the guy who scored the third-most points among receivers in Week 14 was Davante Adams. Even with Aaron Rodgers out of the lineup and the inexperienced Brett Hundley under center, Adams has remained an elite fantasy receiver.
Another receiver who’s remained elite despite quarterback changes has been Adam Thielen. Whether it’s been Sam Bradford or Case Keenum, Thielen has been producing all season. He currently ranks fifth in fantasy scoring among receivers this season.
Who will step up in Week 15 and for the rest of the fantasy playoffs? To help you find out, here is a new ranking of the top 50 wide receivers in standard leagues for Week 15.
