We’re officially 11 weeks until the NFL season, meaning it’s the home stretch before the fantasy football playoffs. With more teams on the bye and plenty of injuries around the league, our Week 12 fantasy rankings will be missing quite a few names this week.

In Week 12, there are six teams on the bye week including the Atlanta Falcons, Buffalo Bills and Cincinnati Bengals. It means that some of the best fantasy players – Josh Allen, Joe Burrow, Bijan Robinson, Ja’Marr Chase and Drake London – won’t be available. While those absences certainly hurt, our Week 12 fantasy rankings will take you through every position for the week ahead.
