Week 13 of the 2025 NFL season rolls on this afternoon with a matchup featuring the New Orleans Saints visiting the Miami Dolphins at 1 p.m. ET on FOX.
The Saints were unable to fend off the Falcons in the Superdome last Sunday, falling to their hated rival in a 24-10 loss that dropped them to 2-10 for the year. Running back Devin Neal got plenty of reps in the setback and his services will be needed in today’s showdown.

Below, we’ll go over Neal’s outlook in fantasy football for Week 13.
Fantasy Football analysis: Saints RB Devin Neal
Neal was heavily involved in the Saints’ offensive gameplan against the Falcons last Sunday, recording seven carries for 18 yards on the ground and five receptions for 43 yards through the air. This was mostly due to Alvin Kamara exiting the game in the first quarter with a knee injury, but the rookie out of Kansas had already seen an uptick in snaps in recent weeks .
Kamara has already been ruled out of today’s game with an MCL strain and could be potentially sidelined for a few weeks, meaning Neal will be toting the rock as the Saints’ starter as they head into the holiday season. This could be an audition for a bigger role for him in 2026, so we’ll see how the first-year back handles the increased workload.

Start or sit in Week 13?
Start. The Saints should be in full roster evaluation mode for the rest of the season, so expect Neal to get plenty of touches against the Dolphins this afternoon. I like his upside as a Flex play, so if you picked him up off the waiver wire this week, go ahead and start him
