Tyler Boyd-WR-Cincinnati Bengals (34.7%)

The most added RB last week was Wendell Smallwood, and the most added WR was fellow-rookie Tyler Boyd of the Bengals. Like Smallwood, Boyd is still available in many leagues, though, and should keep getting plenty of attention from the waiver wire week 13.

He got nine targets on Sunday against the Ravens and hauled in five catches for 62 yards. With A.J. Green out, Boyd was second on the team in targets behind only Tyler Eifert. The rookie out of Pitt scored his first NFL touchdown in Week 11, and will keep getting plenty of passes thrown his yaw the next few weeks in good matchups against the Eagles, Browns, and Steelers.

Boyd’s value will definitely take a hit when A.J. Green returns, but with the Bengals sinking quickly out of the playoff race there isn’t much reason to rush him back. Coach Marvin Lewis didn’t totally close the door, but it looks like a long shot that he’ll be back Week 13.
