Week 12 Fantasy Football Rankings: Tight Ends

George Kittle remains a red-hot option.

Welcome to Week 12 of the fantasy football season!

With three games on Thanksgiving and one on Friday, the most important thing to remember this week is that you need to set those lineups early. As always. I’ve used a full-point PPR scoring system, which you can use in addition to the Week 12 edition of Start Em, Sit Em.

At Sports Illustrated, we always have you covered!

At tight end, George Kittle is red hot and a top-three player at the position. David Njoku busts into the top 10 after a 15-target game last week, and Isaiah Likely has moved way up in the rankings with Mark Andrews expected to miss playing time.

Be sure to check back for updates … and Happy Thanksgiving!
