We're onto Week 10 of the 2023 NFL season, but there are still tough start-or-sit decisions to be made. DeAndre Hopkins, Chris Godwin, and Diontae Johnson are all in the fantasy football mix at wide receiver this week.
Hopkins seems to have increased fantasy value with a new quarterback, Godwin draws a great matchup, and Johnson looks to continue his run of excellent play since returning from Injured Reserve.
Should you start Hopkins, Godwin, or Johnson in Week 10? Let's dive in.

Should I Start DeAndre Hopkins for Fantasy Football?
In Week 10, Hopkins draws a matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who have surrendered the second-most fantasy points per game to wideouts this season. Tampa Bay was shredded by rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud last week to the tune of 470 passing yards. Wide receivers Tank Dell and Noah Brown each went over 110 yards last week versus the Bucs.
That said, Hopkins is a virtual must-start this week. Will Levis has proven to improve the Titans' vertical passing game, so Hopkins could be in for a vintage game in Week 10.
He is the WR10 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.
Should I Start Chris Godwin for Fantasy Football?
On the flip side of the Titans-Buccaneers contest, Godwin draws a favorable matchup with the Titans secondary. Tennessee has allowed the seventh-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers this season, and Sean Murphy-Bunting (thumb) has been ruled out. He's arguably their best cover corner, so Godwin along with Mike Evans could be in for big days.
Godwin is coming off of his worst performance of the year last week (two catches, 16 yards), but he's in line for a bounce-back in this spot. With several key wideouts out of action on a bye, he should probably be in most starting lineups.
He is the WR20 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.
Should I Start Diontae Johnson for Fantasy Football?
In three games since returning from IR, Johnson has hauled in 20 of his 29 targets for 254 yards and one touchdown. Over the last three weeks, he's finished no lower than the WR22 in half-PPR formats.
Although Green Bay has allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers, they are dealing with multiple injuries in the secondary, and Johnson's body of work this season keeps him in the "must-start" category. Fire him up again in Week 10.
He is the WR16 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.
