JuJu Smith-Schuster Expected To Play In Week 10
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (toe) is expected to play against the Los Angeles Rams. The 22-year-old was a late add to the injury report on Friday, though it appears the injury won't prevent him from suiting up. Smith-Schuster will face off with Pro Bowl corner Jalen Ramsey. He's a low-end WR2 because of […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoSaints Defense A Solid Option In Week 10
The New Orleans Saints Defense gets a good matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints have 24 sacks in eight games, 11th in the league. They'll face a Falcons team that has thrown nine interceptions so far, the seventh-most in the league. The Falcons have also allowed the fifth-most quarterback hits so far this year. […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoWil Lutz Set Up Nicely Against Atlanta
New Orleans Saints kicker Wil Lutz is set up for a busy day against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. The 25-year-old has missed three field goals in his last two games but has made eight extra points.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoJared Cook A Sleeper In Week 10
New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook has sleeper potential in a game against the Atlanta Falcons. The veteran tight end has yet to exceed 50 receiving yards in any contest this year, though he managed to find the end zone in back-to-back games with Teddy Bridgewater under center. With Brees back in the saddle, […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoTre'Quan Smith A Risky Flex Option
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith will face a struggling Atlanta Falcons Defense in Week 10. The 23-year-old was a popular sleeper pick ahead of this year, but ankle and knee injuries have cost him five games this year. The bye week came at the right time for Smith, who is healthy going into […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoTed Ginn A Good Flex Option In Week 10
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Ted Ginn will take on the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. The 34-year-old struggled a bit with Teddy Bridgewater under center, as he failed to eclipse 50 receiving yards in any of the games-and caught just one touchdown. In Brees' Week 8 return, he connected with Ginn on two 21-yard […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMichael Thomas Gets Excellent Matchup Against Falcons
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas draws an excellent home matchup against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. The All-Pro receiver enjoyed a bye last week and still paces the NFL in catches, 73 and receiving yards, 875. Thomas is the only player who has 15+ fantasy points in every game this season, showing […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoLatavius Murray A Flex Option In Week 10
New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray will face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. The 29-year-old compiled at least 150 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in both games without starter Alvin Kamara. Kamara said he wouldn't kind sharing more touches with Murray-and Coach Sean Payton seemed to endorse the idea. It's good news for […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAlvin Kamara Good To Go For Matchup Against Atlanta
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) is good to go for Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. It's a great welcome back to the lineup spot for Kamara, as the Falcons rank 21st in the league in rushing yards allowed. The 24-year-old has averaged 20 touches per game this year and has […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDavante Adams Good To Go Sunday
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) does not have an injury designation on Friday's report and is good to go for Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. Fellow wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (ankle, knee) and tight end Jimmy Graham (veteran's rest) are also going to play in Week 10. Adams is a must-start […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDrew Brees Poised For Huge Game In Week 10

In his highly-anticipated return to the field in Week 8, the 40-year-old completed 34 of 43 passes for 373 yards, three touchdowns and one interception. On Sunday, he'll face a struggling Falcons Defense with a full complement […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoPackers Defense Not A Great Option Against Carolina
The Green Bay Packers Defense will face off against Christian McCaffrey and the Carolina Panthers offense. It's not a great matchup for Green Bay, as the Panthers have scored at least 27 points in five of their eight games this year. Panthers rookie quarterback Kyle Allen has only thrown four interceptions, three of them against […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMason Crosby A Good Option In Week 10
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby gets a good matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Week 10. The 35-year-old was negatively affected by the collective dud the Packers offense put up in Week 9. Expect a bounce-back performance from the Pack, helping Crosby's value this week. The veteran kicker is 12 of 13 on field […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJimmy Graham Gets Tough Matchup In Week 10
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (veteran's rest) will face a tough Carolina Panthers pass defense in Week 10. The Panthers rank ninth against the pass and have only surrendered two touchdowns to tight ends in eight games. Graham has exceeded 50 receiving yards in just two of nine games and has gone without […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoGeronimo Allison, Allen Lazard Shouldn't Be Started
Green Bay Packers wide receivers Geronimo Allison and Allen Lazard are not recommended fantasy options in Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers. Allison has recorded just 20 catches on 34 targets for 205 yards and two touchdowns in nine games. He's only been fantasy-relevant when he's caught a touchdown. In five games without Davante Adams […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAlvin Kamara Willing To Share Carries With Latavius Murray
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is comfortable sharing carries with fellow back Latavius Murray, per ESPN's Mike Triplett. In two games without Kamara, Murray racked up over 150 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in each of them, earning himself a bigger slice. Expect touches to look something similar to last year's timeshare, where […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDavante Adams, Jimmy Graham Limited On Thursday
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) and tight end Jimmy Graham (veteran's rest) were limited in Thursday's practice. Wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (ankle, knee) also was limited. The Packers are likely just being smart with workloads. They should have all three veteran pass-catchers for their Week 10 matchup with the Carolina Panthers. Their […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAlvin Kamara, Jared Cook Good To Go In Week 10
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) was a full participant in the team's practice on Thursday.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoMarquez Valdes-Scantling Can't Be Trusted In Week 10
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling (ankle, knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday. The 25-year-old was also limited early on last week but ultimately was able to play. Unfortunately, Valdes-Scantling failed to record a catch against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. He's seen only nine targets in his last four games. […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDavante Adams A Must-Start Despite Tough Matchup
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (toe) returned to the lineup last week and received 11 targets but only caught seven of them for 41 yards in a rough day for his team's offense. The 26-year-old was limited in practice yesterday, not due to a setback but to the Packers being extra careful with […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJamaal Williams Gets Great Matchup Against Panthers
Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams will look to continue his success into Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers. The 24-year-old has caught a touchdown in four straight games. Williams has out-touched fellow back Aaron Jones in just two of the eight games he's played, though he's managed to remain fantasy-relevant. He should be […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJimmy Graham Given Veteran Rest Day
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (veteran rest) did not practice on Wednesday. It's a smart move by the Packers, as the 32-year-old was limited early on last week. He'll have two days to get in a limited or full practice session before game day. He's not a recommended start against the Carolina Panthers, […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoDavante Adams, Marquez Valdes-Scantling Limited
Green Bay Packers wide receivers Davante Adams (toe) and Marquez Valdes-Scantling (ankle, knee) were both limited participants in Wednesday's snowy practice.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoAaron Jones Gets Juicy Matchup In Week 10
Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones gets a prime bounce-back opportunity against the Carolina Panthers in Week 10. Jones has seen at least 15 touches in six of nine games played this year, compared to one such game for fellow back Jamaal Williams. The 24-year-old gets a juicy matchup in Week 10 against the […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAlvin Kamara, Jared Cook, Tre'Quan Smith Return To Practice
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) and tight end Jared Cook (ankle) both returned to practice on Wednesday. Wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) also practiced. For the first time since Week 2, the Saints offense will be operating with all of its playmakers at full strength. It's excellent timing for fantasy owners as […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoAaron Rodgers A QB1 Against Panthers
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will look to bounce back against the Carolina Panthers in Week 10 following his worst game of the season. In nine games, the 35-year-old has averaged 35.3 pass attempts with 7.8 yards per attempt and has thrown 17 touchdowns and just two interceptions. The Panthers present a pretty tough […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoPackers Defense Gashed By Chargers
The Green Bay Packers Defense struggled to make an impact against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. The unit gave up 159 rushing yards and 26 points, as they failed to get off the field. Perhaps worse, they managed to record just two sacks and couldn't create any turnovers. It was a day to […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoMason Crosby Makes Lone Field-Goal Attempt
Green Bay Packers kicker Mason Crosby made his only field goal attempt from 54 yards out. It's hard to blame the 35-year-old Crosby for the quiet day, as his offense totaled just 184 yards and one trip to the red zone. The veteran kicker has now made 12 of 13 field goals and all 26 […]
Tim Capurso 5 years agoJimmy Graham Posts Just 17 Receiving Yards In Loss
Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham caught all four of his targets for 17 yards in his team's Week 9 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.

Tim Capurso 5 years agoAllen Lazard Catches Three Passes
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Allen Lazard caught three of his four targets for 44 yards against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 23-year-old stepped up in the absence of star wideout Davante Adams with 12 catches on 14 targets for 149 yards and a touchdown. It was nice to see Lazard involved even with Adams […]
