Fantasy football managers are scrambling to fill final lineup gaps as Week 12 approaches. Wide receiver remains one of the most unpredictable positions. We have seen sudden injuries, shifting depth charts, and volatile quarterback play. These have created both pitfalls and opportunities. Fortunately, several receivers enter Week 12 with expanded roles and favorable matchups. Whether you need a high-volume target hog or a touchdown-dependent upside swing, these last-minute streaming options can help steady your roster.
Ahead of Week 12 of the 2025 NFL Season, it’s time to see which Wide Receivers are among the last-minute fantasy football streaming options.
Michael Wilson is the clear headliner among Week 12 streaming candidates. That’s after one of the biggest breakout performances of the entire fantasy football week. With Marvin Harrison Jr sidelined, Wilson became the focal point of Jacoby Brissett’s historic passing barrage. Wilson turned a staggering 18 targets into 15 receptions and 185 yards. It was easily the best outing of his career.
Sure, it’s unrealistic to expect Arizona to replicate the 57 pass attempts in Week 11. Still, Wilson should still be in line for a hefty workload with Harrison ruled out again. The Cardinals trust him as their top perimeter option. His chemistry with Brissett has taken a significant step forward. A double-digit target projection is not out of the question given.
The Jaguars defense presents a middling matchup. That said, opportunities alone make Wilson one of the most attractive PPR streamers this week. Until Harrison returns, Wilson is a must-start caliber option in most formats.
Christian Watson remains one of the NFL’s most explosive red-zone threats when healthy. Week 11 reminded fantasy football managers exactly why. Watson secured four of five targets for 46 yards and two touchdowns.
The challenge with Watson has always been availability and consistency. Still, his usage in the Packers’ offense remains encouraging whenever he’s active. Green Bay’s Week 12 matchup against Minnesota is an appealing spot for another productive outing. The Vikings defense can be vulnerable to big plays. Watson remains the Packers’ best downfield and scoring-area weapon.
Watson enters Week 12 as a premium streamer with multi-touchdown upside. He’s more volatile than Wilson, but his ceiling remains extremely attractive.
The Bengals’ receiving corps could shift dramatically in Week 12. That depends on the outcome of Ja’Marr Chase’s appeal. If Chase is ultimately sidelined, Andrei Iosivas becomes a compelling add-and-start option across all leagues.
Iosivas has already delivered strong production when given meaningful volume. He has two games this season with seven targets. He scored at least 13.2 PPR points in both. On Sunday against Pittsburgh, he played 48 offensive snaps. That suggests the coaching staff trusts him when additional opportunities arise.
Joe Flacco is likely to funnel targets toward Tee Higgins if Chase sits. That said, Iosivas has the ability to command complementary volume. His biggest challenge will be getting consistent separation. However, the potential...
