The Cincinnati Bengals will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 13. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding QB Joe Burrow.
Is Joe Burrow Playing in Week 13?
Burrow (right wrist) fully practiced this week and will face the Steelers on Sunday. He did not receive any injury designation on the final report of the week.

Should You Start or Sit Joe Burrow in Week 13?
If you remove the weird Week 1 loss to the Patriots, Joe Burrow’s 17-game pace is 4,869 passing yards, 46 touchdowns, and seven interceptions (2011 MVP Aaron Rodgers: 4,643 yards, 45 touchdowns, and six interceptions).
Burrow has strung together three straight top-two finishes (in those games: 1,035 passing yards with 12 touchdowns and just one interception), and while projecting that level of success against an elite defense that gets the benefit of the mini-bye, there’s no way to drop him outside of the top six at the position this week.
