The NFL fantasy football schedule is into Week 12 and some sleepers and start options include Tevin Coleman, Theo Riddick, Davante Adams, Ted Ginn, Kamar Aiken, Devin Funchess, Buck Allen, Ahmad Bradshaw, Alfred Blue and Thomas Rawls for owners. Injuries to Justin Forsett, Devonta Freeman and Marshawn Lynch have Rawls, Allen and Coleman options, while Riddick had a strong game for the Lions last week.

Tevin Coleman is a solid start option this week for the Falcons, as Pro Football Talk reports that Devonta Freeman is in the concussion protocol. Thomas Rawls is going to be the starter in Seattle for a stretch, as Marshawn Lynch is dealing with a hernia and could be out for the rest of the season. Buck Allen is set to take over with Justin Forsett out for the season with a broken arm, while Kamar Aiken has stepped up in recent weeks with Steve Smith done for the year.

Davante Adams, Theo Riddick, Devin Funchess, Terrance Williams and Ted Ginn are all playing on Thursday and those names could be solid starter options for Thanksgiving. Ahmad Bradshaw had a strong performance for the Colts last week and could be worth picking up, while Coleman is going to get the chance to step up if Freeman can't play. Freeman is having a strong season with 764 rushing yards and nine touchdowns, but if he is out, expect Coleman to get a full load for the Falcons.

Theo Riddick had a bounce back game last week and on Thursday he could be a solid option for fantasy owners. Riddick is a good start pick in PPR leagues and he comes after making five catches for 72 yards in the win over the Raiders. Riddick had over 80 total yards and he rotated with Ameer Abdullah and Joique Bell, but he has the chance to make an impact on Thursday against the Eagles after a strong performance.

The Ravens have options after the team dealt with numerous injuries in Week 11, including Matt Schaub, Buck Allen and Kamar Aiken. Aiken has been stepping up with Steve Smith out and now Allen will get another chance with Forsett done for the season. Allen had 27 touches in the game and went for over 110 yards and he should see a steady flow of touches for the team moving forward. Aiken had five catches for 50 yards and found the endzone for the Ravens and he will be the number one receiver option for the team when they play against the Browns.

Bradshaw broke out with two touchdowns for the Colts and he is a solid option in PPR leagues for the rest of the season. Alfred Blue has been starting with Arian Foster out for the season and he comes in after putting up over 90 yards and a touchdown in the Week 11 win against the Jets. Davante Adams had a down game against the Vikings for the Packers, but he has played well in recent weeks and should bounce back. Devin Funchess and Ted Ginn are solid sleeper picks against the Cowboys, as the Panthers saw Cam Newton go for five touchdowns last week.
