Hey!
Week 10 is finally here, and before you set your fantasy lineups, here are 10 key pieces of overnight news you need to know before the games start today:
#10 Tetairoa McMillan is expected to play. He injured his hamstring in Friday’s practice. Typically, that’s a multi-week recovery, but the injury doesn’t appear to be major. McMillan remains a Top-20 WR if active...
#9 D’Andre Swift is expected to play. He’s a must-start this week. Swift’s averaging over 20 fantasy points per game across his last 3 starts, and now he faces a Giants defense allowing the 2nd-most rushing yards per game...
#8 Aaron Jones is expected to play. He injured his shoulder last week but is trending to go. Jones totaled 98 yards before exiting and looked sharp. He’s a solid flex option vs. Baltimore’s #27-ranked run defense...
#7 A.J. Brown will play. He’s returning from a hamstring injury and wasn’t listed on the final injury report. Brown draws a favorable matchup against Green Bay’s weaker corners. Lock him in as a Top-24 WR this week...
#6 Matthew Golden is questionable. He missed practice on both Friday and Saturday with a shoulder injury and is trending to be out. If he sits, no Packers WRs are worth starting this week...
#5 Jayden Daniels could miss 3-6 weeks. He’ll be re-evaluated after Washington’s Week 12 bye. With a 3-6 record, the Commanders might not rush him back if they fall further out of contention...
#4 Harold Fannin expects to play. He missed Thursday’s practice (hamstring) but returned Friday in limited fashion. Fannin’s on track to play, he’s my TE15 on the week, projected for 7.6 points...
#3 Cooper Kupp is expected to play. The 32-year-old is returning from hamstring and heel issues. Seattle just acquired Rashid Shaheed, who could eat into Kupp’s snaps right away. Kupp isn’t a recommended start unless you’re desperate during byes...
#2 Mac Jones will start again. The hope remains that Brock Purdy returns in Week 11, but reports suggest he’ll manage this toe issue all season, even if he’s back under center next week...
#1 Cedric Tillman expects to play. He’s returning from IR after a hamstring injury. Tillman hasn’t played with Dillon Gabriel yet, so expectations should be tempered. He’s a deep-league flex only, start him over fringe options like Cooper Kupp…
That’s all for today, go lock in those final lineups.
