Best fantasy football matchups to exploit in Week 12: 3. Jeff Wilson Jr., RB, Miami Dolphins (vs. HOU)

Jeff Wilson Jr. has become a focal part of the Miami Dolphins offense. Following the trade deadline deal that sent Wilson to Miami, he’s out-snapped Raheem Mostert and out-produced him too. For fantasy managers that held onto him after the 49ers acquired Christian McCaffrey, he’s been a revelation.

Wilson is the exact type of running back that Head Coach Mike McDaniel loves to have, as he excelled in the San Francisco running schemes that McDaniel employs in Miami. In fact, both he and Mostert are former 49ers themselves.

With all that being said, Wilson is set up for another huge day against the worst running defense in the league in the Houston Texans. They’ve given up big rushing days to just about every running back they’ve faced this season. Wilson won’t be an exception, and he can be safely started as an RB2 in Week 12.
