Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlooks
Below are some fantasy football outlooks written by our NFL team here at RotoBaller, bringing you their fantasy football analysis and advice on which players to consider starting in Week 10:
Germie Bernard, Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Germie Bernard has a better chance to keep his expanded role after the team stood pat at Tuesday's trade deadline. The Steelers discussed potential deals for Brian Thomas Jr., Josh Downs and Calvin Ridley, according to Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Bernard drew 11 targets in his first four games, and 31 in four games since Michael Pittman Jr. (foot) went on injured reserve. He played 85% to 94% of the offensive snaps in those four games after playing fewer than half in three of the first four.
Bernard caught eight of 10 targets for 57 yards over his last two games and went scoreless in both. He's a low-end flex option in 12-team PPR leagues for Sunday night's visit to the Cincinnati Bengals if Pittman remains sidelined. Head coach Mike McCarthy said Monday that Pittman was getting close to returning, and the team still lists him on injured reserve. In the first meeting with Cincinnati, Pittman drew five targets, and Bernard caught his only target for 14 yards.
Denzel Boston, Cleveland Browns
Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Denzel Boston (toe) said his toe is feeling better, and he is hoping he can practice on Thursday, according to Scott Petrak of The Elyria Chronicle-Telegram. Boston was held out of the first practice of the week on Wednesday, but if the 22-year-old gets back onto the field a day later, he will be putting himself in a good spot to be ready to play on Sunday in the Week 10 tilt against the visiting Houston Texans.
The second-rounder from the University of Washington played 93% of the offensive snaps in Sunday's overtime loss to the New Orleans Saints and caught six of his seven targets for a season-high 98 yards, with Shedeur Sanders making his first start under center for the Browns.
Boston's status is worth watching going into the weekend, because if he does not play, veteran Jerry Jeudy could be a sneaky deep-league flex play with Deshaun Watson returning from a concussion that knocked him out last weekend. Boston and fellow rookie KC Concepcion Jr. have quickly become the team's top two wideouts this year, with Boston catching 32 of his 61 targets for 507 yards and three touchdowns through the first nine weeks.
Carnell Tate, Tennessee Titans
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Carnell Tate (shoulder) will not practice Wednesday, according to ESPN's Turron Davenport. The first-round rookie missed the team's Week 8 loss to the Bengals with a shoulder injury before Tennessee went on bye in Week 9. Prior to the injury, Tate had reached 69 receiving yards in three of his last four contests, scoring once and playing as the fantasy WR21 over that stretch.
While a missed practice coming out of the bye is never an encouraging sign, Tate will have two more opportunities to rejoin his teammates on the practice field ahead of a divisional matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars. With Jacksonville using the trade deadline to improve upon what has already been one of the league's best defenses and Tate facing a potential pitch count upon his return, fantasy managers should be looking for other options even if the rookie is able to suit up on Sunday.
Tutu Atwell, Los Angeles Rams
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Tutu Atwell has seen nine targets over his last two games, and his volume could continue to surge heading into Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals. Atwell has seen increased opportunities on offense with wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) on injured reserve, and now, Puka Nacua (knee) and Jordan Whittington (back) are both headed for an extended absence. Nacua is averaging a whopping 13.3 targets per game this season, so that's a lot of vacated targets that will now be distributed among the Rams' other receivers, including Atwell.
Historically, the 27-year-old has been more of a deep threat, but we would not be surprised if the Rams get him more involved in the intermediate passing game to make up for the loss of Adams and Nacua. Matthew Stafford has a long track record of supporting fantasy-relevant receivers, so Atwell has a decent chance to get on the WR3/flex radar, especially if he can establish himself as a preferred option ahead of Konata Mumpfield and CJ Daniels.
Fantasy managers in leagues with at least 12-14 teams should strongly consider adding Atwell off waivers, as he's likely headed for at least four or five weeks of fantasy relevance.
A.J. Brown, New England Patriots
New England wide receiver A.J. Brown (knee, ankle) was seen participating in the team's jog-through on Thursday in Munich, Germany. Brown has not played since Week 7, and he's only appeared in three games in total this season. Across 132 offensive snaps, Brown has 101 receiving yards and no touchdowns on nine receptions and 20 targets.
If he's able to play in Week 10 against the Lions, it would be a massive boost to an offense that's been decimated by injuries and absences. Brown's status needs to be monitored heading into Sunday's game, but he'd be the team's top pass catcher and fantasy option if he's active. If he's out again, it will be DeMario Douglas and Mack Hollins leading the wide receiver room.
