The Cleveland Browns will host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding QB Shedeur Sanders.
Is Shedeur Sanders Playing in Week 13?
Sanders is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.

Should You Start or Sit Sanders in Week 13?
There are some signs of viability in Sanders up to this point, but he’s not close to fantasy-relevant right now, and I’m not sure the roster around him, as it currently stands, gives him much of a chance.
The 52-yard completion to Isaiah Bond was a nice peek into what is possible, and his first touchdown pass (the screen that Dylan Sampson took to the house) at least showed the ability to be on time at this level.
Use this final month as an excuse to scout him for next season, but I’d be surprised if he is close to viable in one QB leagues in 2026 due to a lack of mobility and a below-average supporting cast.
