The fantasy football schedule is into Week 11 and some sleepers and free agent options include Matt Jones, Kirk Cousins, Michael Floyd, Dwayne Harris, Jamison Crowder, Jeremy Langford, Charcandrick West, Jay Ajayi, Kamar Aiken, Allen Hurns, Brock Osweiler and Rishard Matthews for fantasy team owners.

Players like Peyton Manning, Matt Forte and Eddie Lacy are banged up and that has pushed Jeremy Langford, James Starks and Brock Osweiler into bigger roles. Osweiler is going to start this week for the Broncos and he could be a sleeper pick against the Bears for Week 11 with Manning out. Matt Forte continues to deal with a knee injury and after the way Langford has been playing, the Bears are likely going to give him more touches moving forward.

James Starks has overtaken Eddie Lacy as the lead back for the Packers and this comes as Lacy is dealing with a groin injury. Lacy has not been very effective when healthy and that has given Starks the chance to take over as the starter. Kamar Aiken and Charcandrick West have stepped up after earlier injuries to Steve Smith and Jamaal Charles, while Dwayne Harris has stepped in with Victor Cruz unable to return for the Giants this season.

Starks is a solid option for this week despite a tough matchup with Minnesota, as the Packers have been getting more consistent play out of Starks than Eddie Lacy this season. Lacy is dealing with a groin injury and was out last week and that gives Starks another chance to start on Sunday in Week 11. Starks comes in after rushing for 42 yards and he also added six catches for 54 yards in the loss against the Lions. Starks now has 376 rushing yards this season and is worth a start for fantasy owners.

Jeremy Langford has been one of the best fantasy football options in the league over the past couple weeks and he could keep the Bears from rushing back Matt Forte. Langford has had at least 140 total yards in each of the past two games and on Sunday he scored two touchdowns in the win for the Bears. Langford had 73 yards rushing on 20 carries and he also added seven catches for 109 yards against the Rams.

The Redskins offense has been getting production from Kirk Cousins, Matt Jones and Jamison Crowder in recent weeks and those players are worth checking out for fantasy owners. The Redskins have a tough matchup with the undefeated Panthers this week, but Cousins has been playing well and he comes in after throwing for 324 yards and four touchdowns in the win on Sunday. Jones has been getting more touches than Alfred Morris on offense and Crowder has stepped up with DeSean Jackson still working to get his speed back from an injury.

Kamar Aiken has stepped up since Steve Smith went down with an injury and he had seven catches for 73 yards this week on 14 targets. Osweiler is getting the start for Peyton Manning and while he may not put up crazy numbers this week, Osweiler has a good matchup with the Bears and could be a nice fantasy start option for Manning owners. Charcandrick West has played well for the Chiefs and he put up over 160 total yards against the Broncos and is worth looking at for fantasy owners going forward.
