Welcome to Week 13 and Happy Thanksgiving!

The NFL schedule doesn’t include any byes this week (there are four teams off in Week 14, at which point the byes are over). There are three games on Thursday this week, as the Packers face the Lions, the Chiefs battle the Cowboys, and the Ravens host the Bengals.

There is also a Friday game (the NFL’s Black Friday contest) that features the Bears and the Eagles, so fantasy managers will have four days of NFL football in total this week.

This week’s defense ranking risers include the Jaguars, 49ers, and Dolphins, all of whom have great matchups next on the schedule. On the flip side, defensive units like the Chiefs, Texans, and Vikings could struggle versus tougher foes.

With that said, here are my complete fantasy football defense rankings for Week 13 of the NFL season.

Be sure to check back all week for daily updates!

All Positions: QBs | RBs | WRs | TEs | FLEX | Ks
