It’s almost Sunday, which means today is one of the last days you have to make any more waiver wire moves this week. Below we’ll be breaking down four sleepers who may still be available for you to add to your fantasy football team.
In order to set a baseline of which players are eligible, all players must be under 50% rostered in ESPN leagues. Although a few of these players may not be available for you, if you’re able to grab at least one, that should help your team.
1. Christian Watson (46.2% Rostered)
Since coming back from injury this year, Christian Watson is averaging 11.8 PPG (PPR). That includes two games with at least 12.5 points.
While Watson is a bit inconsistent because he’s a deep threat, he’s drawn at least four targets in every game. Not only that, but with Tucker Kraft out for the year, the Green Bay Packers are in need of a playmaker to step up, and Watson has shown he can be that player at times.
2. Sean Tucker (37.1% Rostered)
Sean Tucker may be picked up in most leagues already because of his 34 point explosion last week, but he’s under 50% rostered. Tucker just had 19 carries for 106 yards, and when you watch his film, it’s evident the talent is there.
If Bucky Irving is ruled out for Week 12, there’s a good chance that Tucker will become the Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB1. Rachaad White is still in the mix, but he had just 10 carries compared to Tucker at 19 last week.

3. Bhayshul Tuten (27.2% Rostered)
There’s some injury concerns around Travis Etienne this week and the next man up should be Bhayshul Tuten. Etienne is a bit banged up right now, and there’s a chance that he could miss Week 12.
However, Tuten himself was also limited in the Jaguars most recent practice. Adding Tuten is a dart throw, and you’re betting on Tuten becoming fully healthy and ready to play in Week 12 while Etienne sits out.
If that happens, you would have a good chance to get a starting running back for at least one week. Tuten was selected in the 4th round of the 2025 NFL Draft, and he’s an extremely explosive player.
We also just saw Tuten have a season high in terms of carries in Week 11, which he turned into 13.4 fantasy points and 4.9 YPC. Again, Tuten doesn’t have a very high floor, but if you’re looking for a player to add onto the end of your bench, upside is really all that matters.
4. Luther Burden (6.9% Rostered)
For the last player on this list, we have yet another rookie in Luther Burden. Typically, rookies tend to get more involved as the season goes on, which is why Burden should be rostered.
Although Burden has only had over 10 points once this year, last week he had a season high in targets with five. That only turned into 5.7 fantasy points, but that slight spike in usage is encouraging.
If Burden is able to carve a role into this Chicago Bears offense, he could be a great start in your flex spot. Burden was the 39th overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft (2nd round), and many people, including myself, really liked him as a prospect.
At this point, it seems like the talent is there, but the opportunity isn’t. It’s also worth noting that the Bears are scoring the 8th most PPG (25.8) in the NFL right now per Team Rankings.
It’s not a guarantee by any means, but if Burden can earn a meaningful role in this Bears offense, he should have a meaningful role on your fantasy football team.
