The Carolina Panthers will visit the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Ja’Tavion Sanders.
Is Ja’Tavion Sanders Playing in Week 12?
Sanders is not on the injury report and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Panthers’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Sanders in Week 12?
Bryce Young goes bonkers and his tight end finishes with under 35 receiving yards for the sixth straight game.
Not ideal.
Ja’Tavion Sanders hasn’t seen an end zone target in a month and it’s been two full months since he’s cleared 20 air yards in a contest. I don’t think the Xavier Legette production from last week is real, but I’m also not positive that any dialing back of his numbers puts more usage on the plate of Sanders.
