The 2024 NFL season is upon us, so it’s time to scour the waiver wire to bolster our fantasy football rosters.

This page will include players that are rostered in the 50% range or lower in Yahoo leagues.

So without further ado, let’s dive into the top Week 14 waiver wire pickups.

QB Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

Will Levis, Tennessee Titans (12% rostered in Yahoo leagues)

Since reclaiming the starting quarterback role, Will Levis is averaging 17.3 fantasy points per game (QB21).

During this stretch, Levis has thrown for 270+ yards twice and rushed for 40+ yards twice.

There are six teams on the bye this week, so you if you’re without Lamar Jackson or Jayden Daniels, Levis looks like a strong streamer.

It’s a good matchup at home vs the Jaguars, who rank 32nd in Dropback EPA.

Check out where Levis lands in our Week 14 fantasy football rankings.

RB Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

Braelon Allen, New York Jets (32%)

There’s a good chance that Breece Hall is going to end up getting shut down at some point, as he’s playing through a knee injury and the Jets are eliminated from playoff contention.

That would allow Braelon Allen to take over the lead role in this backfield.

This is a back who runs with power and would immediately be an upside RB2 in that scenario.

Kimani Vidal, Los Angeles Chargers (16%)

Kimani Vidal is working as the Chargers’ no.2 running back with J.K. Dobbins out.

Gus Edwards has not been impressive this season, and Hassan Haskins has never shown much at the professional level.

Vidal looks like a solid stash for the stretch run.

Isaac Guerendo, San Francisco 49ers (3%)

Jordan Mason was surprisingly placed on IR along with Christian McCaffrey, leaving Isaac Guerendo as the lead back for the 49ers.

The rookie put up 19 yards and a touchdown in the blowout loss vs the Bills.

While this team is trending downward in a major way, having the top option in the Niners’ backfield could pay major dividends.

WR Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

Adam Thielen, Carolina Panthers (32%)

Adam Thielen had a huge game vs the Bucs, catching 8-of-10 targets for 99 yards and a touchdown.

While a tough matchup with the Eagles awaits, Thielen gets the Cowboys, Cardinals, and Buccaneers for the fantasy playoffs.

With Bryce Young looking much better under center, Thielen could be an impact player when you need it most.

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine, Tennessee Titans (18%)

Nick Westbrook-Ikhine is on an absurd run where he’s scored eight touchdowns in his last eight games.

During this stretch, Westbrook-Ikhine has only 38 targets, which is why it’s been such a surprise.

Having said that, we could see him keep it rolling against the Jaguars (32nd in Dropback EPA).

Tre Tucker, Las Vegas Raiders (4%)

Tre Tucker has been a big-play threat for the Raiders in the last two weeks, combining for 140 yards and a touchdown during this stretch.

Las Vegas has a terrific rest-of-season schedule that includes matchups with the Buccaneers, Falcons, Jaguars, and Saints.

If you’re in a deep league, it makes sense to give Tucker a shot.

TE Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

Luke Schoonmaker, Dallas Cowboys (10%)

Luke Schoonmaker has caught 8-of-10 targets for 88 yards and a touchdown in his last two games.

If Jake Ferguson is out for another game, you can fire up Schoonmaker in what could be a high-scoring game vs the Bengals.

Schoonmaker looks like a rock-solid streamer for Week 14.

Defense Streamers for Week 14

Tennessee Titans (5%)

Trevor Lawrence is currently dealing with a concussion, so it’s likely that Mac Jones will get another start this week.

That’s good news for the Titans’ defense. This is a group that has two double-digit fantasy performances in their last four games.

It wouldn’t shock me to see another strong outing in this favorable spot at home.

Kicker Adds for Week 14

Parker Romo, Minnesota Vikings (12%)

My kicker streams were N/A in Week 13, as my pick Spencer Shrader was ruled out leading up to the matchup.

  • Matt Prater: 14 fantasy points
  • Chris Boswell: 26 fantasy points
  • Daniel Carlson: 2 fantasy points
  • Blake Grupe: 7 fantasy points
  • Joshua Karty: 1 fantasy points
  • Will Lutz: 5 fantasy points
  • Austin Seibert: 17 fantasy points
  • Will Reichard: 8 fantasy points
  • Dustin Hopkins: 4 fantasy points
  • Matt Gay: 8 fantasy points
  • Joshua Karty: 4 fantasy points
  • Chase McLaughlin: 6 fantasy points
  • Spencer Shrader: OUT

My pick for Week 14 is Parker Romo, who has 12+ fantasy points in three of his last four games.
