11 hours agoNew York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers remains the team's top weapon heading into Week 10's matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Munich. Last week, Nabers led the Giants with nine receptions, though he was held to just 59 yards as the Commanders contained his big-play ability. This week, he faces a Panthers defense that ranks 12th against fantasy WRs and has allowed 18 passing touchdowns this season, despite limiting overall passing yards to 232.6 per game. Nabers' steady target volume and six end-zone targets make him a reliable fantasy option, and against Carolina's vulnerable red-zone defense, he has a solid chance to add to his three touchdowns this season, making him a high-floor WR1 for Week 10.Source: NFL.com

11 hours agoTennessee Titans wide receiver Tyler Boyd (shoulder) was removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 10 matchup with the Chargers. The veteran was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday. But he was a full-go for Friday's session. With DeAndre Hopkins now a Kansas City Chief, others had a chance to step up. While Calvin Ridley and Nick Westbrook-Ikhine have been useful for fantasy managers, Boyd remains irrelevant on the offensive end for the Titans. That's not expected to change anytime soon, so he shouldn't draw any attention from fantasy managers, especially with a difficult game on the horizon.Source: Tennessee Titans
11 hours agoNew York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. heads into Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers with momentum after a solid 66-yard rushing performance in Week 9, further asserting himself as the team's lead back with a 68.3% timeshare. Tracy has been productive since becoming the starter in Week 5, averaging 14.76 fantasy points per game, ranking him 22nd among RBs in that span. Facing a struggling Panthers run defense that ranks last in both overall and fantasy RB defense, allowing 159.3 rushing yards per game, Tracy has a prime opportunity for a breakout game in Munich. With his 5.0 yards-per-carry average, Tracy could see strong fantasy value against Carolina's generous defensive front.Source: NFL.com
11 hours agoNew York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones heads into Week 10 against the Carolina Panthers looking to build on a solid performance in Week 9, where he rushed for his first touchdown of the season and threw for two scores in a 27-22 loss to the Commanders. Jones has tallied 1,880 passing yards, eight touchdowns, and five interceptions this season, but he's still without a 300-yard game. Facing Carolina's 25th-ranked pass defense, which allows 232.6 passing yards per game and has surrendered 18 touchdown passes on the season, Jones has a favorable matchup for fantasy production. Although Jones ranks 27th in fantasy points per game (16.21), the Panthers' defense has allowed an average of 19.28 points per game to opposing quarterbacks, suggesting a potential opportunity for Jones to deliver a strong fantasy outing in Munich.Source: NFL.com
13 hours agoArizona Cardinals running back James Conner (finger) is a high-end RB2 in Week 10 when the Cardinals host the New York Jets. Conner has been dealing with a finger injury that limited his practice participation earlier in the week; however, he practiced in full on Friday and appears to be good to go for Sunday. Conner is a workhorse back, and his volume has translated into a high number of touchdown opportunities. While there are concerns that his volume might decrease due to the injury and the emergence of rookie running back Trey Benson, his snap count should remain high enough to warrant RB2 consideration. Conner still possesses significant touchdown upside and should receive enough volume to remain a solid RB2 in Week 10 against the Jets.Source: RotoBaller
13 hours agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Mike Williams will make his first appearance for the team in a Week 10 showdown with the 7-2 Washington Commanders. Williams was unable to get on the same page as quarterback Aaron Rodgers in New York but will hope to quickly establish chemistry with Russell Wilson. The Steelers have been linked to Williams since the offseason and should be eager to get him on the field to work opposite George Pickens. While the veteran's role in the offense will be worth monitoring, Williams cannot be expected to immediately garner more opportunities than fellow wideouts Van Jefferson and Calvin Austin III. Fantasy managers would be wise to leave Williams on the waiver wire in most redraft formats for the time being.Source: RotoBaller
13 hours agoPittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell is a top-three fantasy scorer at his position this season and will hope to stay productive against the Washington Commanders in Week 10. It's worth noting that the Commanders' defense is much improved from last season and is surrendering the third-fewest fantasy points per contest to opposing kickers. Nonetheless, Boswell is one of the most consistent kickers in the NFL and offers more upside than he did to start the campaign with quarterback Russell Wilson now leading Pittsburgh's offense. Fantasy managers that held onto Boswell through the Steelers' Week 9 bye or managed to add him from free agency should feel confident putting him right back in starting lineups on Sunday.Source: RotoBaller
13 hours agoChicago Bears safety Jaquan Brisker (concussion) has again been ruled inactive for Sunday's home matchup against the New England Patriots. Brisker hasn't appeared in a game since the team's Week 5 36-10 victory over the Carolina Panthers, missing the ensuing three outings. More so, -- and even more concerning -- the 25-year-old has yet to even sniff a practice since sustaining the injury, logging a DNP in each opportunity he's gotten. It's an unsettling development for the Penn State alum, as hopefully, he'll be able to at least get in a limited session ahead of Week 11. Safety Elijah Hicks will again get the start, filling in for the injured Brisker.Source: Bears Wire
14 hours agoThe Pittsburgh Steelers have had one of the best defensive units in the NFL so far this season but will face their toughest challenge yet against the Washington Commanders in Week 10. The Commanders are scoring the third-most points while accumulating the third-most offensive yards per contest in the NFL. Furthermore, Washington is committing the fewest turnovers in the league. That said, the Commanders have not faced a pass rush as dominant as Pittsburgh's. The Steelers are generating nearly two takeaways per game and could make things difficult for impressive rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. Fantasy managers can consider other options in this spot, but the Steelers DST still offers plenty of upside in starting lineups.Source: Pro Football Reference
14 hours agoTampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton has been nearly unstoppable on the field over the last few weeks. Over the last three games, Otton has hauled in 25 receptions on 30 targets for 258 yards and three touchdowns. The Bucs don't have many reliable pass-catchers right now, so they continue to go to Otton and it's working. The expectation is that the San Francisco 49ers defense will plan around holding Otton in check, but fantasy managers should still play him as a TE1 for Week 10. Otton has been too great lately, so ride with him until he gives you reason not to trust him.Source: ESPN
14 hours agoLos Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson (toe/hip) was listed as a limited participant in the team's Friday practice. Robinson picked up a toe injury in the team's thrilling 26-20 OT win over the Seattle Seahawks despite being the hero of the contest. Interestingly enough, he's listed with a hip ailment as well, but when and where that occurred is unclear. Head coach Sean McVay didn't seem too bothered about the 30-year-old wideout's status when asked about him on Thursday but did note they're being cautious with the veteran's toe. He'll have one more opportunity to elevate his practice status before Los Angeles must give him a designation for their Monday night home tilt against the Miami Dolphins. If Robinson can't go, teammates Tutu Atwell and Tyler Johnson project to pick up some extra snaps for the matchup on Monday Night Football. Keep an eye on his status.Source: Los Angeles Rams
14 hours agoThe Detroit Lions D/ST enters Week 10 with a potentially solid outlook, facing a Houston Texans offense struggling with mounting offensive injuries and recent inefficiency. Houston has allowed 14 sacks over the last three games, including eight in their Week 9 matchup with the Jets. Detroit DS/T is averaging eight fantasy points per game and ranking as a Top-8 fantasy D/ST with 16 turnovers (third in the league) and just 18.5 points allowed per game (fifth). Detroit's recent acquisition of LB Za'Darius Smith from the Cleveland Browns has recorded five sacks in nine games, boosts a pass rush aiming to take advantage of Houston's vulnerable front. While the Texans may seem a tricky opponent, injuries to key players like WR Stefon Diggs (ACL, out for the season) and WR Nico Collins (hamstring) limit their offensive firepower. Fantasy managers looking for a long-term option may find value in the Lions D/ST, with favorable matchups following this week against the Jaguars, Colts, and Bears.Source: RotoBaller
14 hours agoTampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Trey Palmer is an avoidable streaming option ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The expectation was that Palmer would see increased involvement in the offense with the Bucs banged up at wideout. That hasn't really been the case as Palmer hauled in two of his four targets for 33 yards during last week's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He only played 49 percent of the offensive snaps and that's with fellow wideout Jalen McMillan (hamstring) sidelined as well. Palmer could be worth a stash in dynasty leagues, but isn't a starting option right now.Source: ESPN
14 hours agoPittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth was a solid contributor to begin the season but has been incredibly quiet for fantasy since Week 6. He'll hope to get back on track against the Washington Commanders on Sunday. The Commanders allow the 14th-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends, making this a middle-of-the-road matchup for Freiermuth. He is yet to display much chemistry with quarterback Russell Wilson outside of a 30-yard reception the duo connected on in Week 7. Fantasy managers should not be relying on Freiermuth in most formats this week.Source: RotoBaller
