The Top DSTs To Start in Week 14
Houston Texans, DST (at NYJ)
If you’re looking for an offense to attack in fantasy football, the New England Patriots are probably the top option. However, right behind them are the New York Jets with Zach Wilson (or anyone else they can trot out) at QB.
This offense is struggling to generate anything positive right now, and the Houston Texans’ defense certainly knows how to create pressure and get after the QB.

We could see a couple of turnovers in this matchup, and we know that the Jets aren’t going to be lighting up the scoreboard. They’re a top plug-and-play option going into Week 14 for fantasy football.
Miami Dolphins, DST (vs. TEN)
This DST has scored at least 13.0 fantasy points in all three games since the bye and has now reached 7.0 fantasy points in eight straight.
With multiple sacks in 11 of 12 games and eight interceptions in their past six, this defense is making plays left and right while their offense puts pressure on their opponents to be aggressive.
If Miami jumps out to a lead, Tennessee falls into a dangerous game script with the developing Will Levis. This defense is rolling, and nothing suggests that their elite production run slows in this spot.
