8 Fantasy Football Sleepers for Week 12
With Kerryon Johnson unlikely to play, Theo Riddick should see no shortage of volume on Thursday. What other players are flying under the radar?

Pierre Garcon, WR, San Francisco 49ers

Pierre Garcon missed the San Francisco 49ers' last game before their bye week, but he is expected to be back at practice this week, so he should be good to go against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday.

Garcon hasn't had an especially strong season, but he does have at least five targets in four of his last five games, averaging 6.2 per game in that stretch and 5.6 per game on the season.

In his lone game with Nick Mullens at the helm, Garcon accounted for a team-high 22.7% target market share.

This week's matchup is a dreamy one, as the Bucs sit 30th in Adjusted Defensive Passing NEP per play while allowing top-three fantasy numbers to opposing wideouts. Garcon shouldn't have much trouble converting volume to production here.
