Amari Cooper fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks for Week 10 (2024). Should you start or sit Amari Cooper for fantasy football lineups?
BALLER MOVE: Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX
ANALYSIS: Buffalo Bills wide receiver Amari Cooper (wrist) is currently dealing with a wrist issue, and was limited at practice on Wednesday. He wasn't able to play in Week 9, so his status will need to be monitored by fantasy managers heading into Week 10. There's a chance he could miss another contest.

If he is eventually able to play, he's worth a start as a WR3/FLEX option. He didn't do much of anything in Week 8 after a nice debut in Week 7 -- in his first game with his new team, he caught four of his five targets for 66 yards and a touchdown, but in the next game, he caught just one of two targets for three yards.
It's unclear what his eventual workload will be with the team, but managers should temper expectations initially. He's still clearly dealing with pain due to his ailment, and it's possible the team could refrain from throwing it to him heavily and have him serve as a decoy.

When healthy, his talent warrants a starting position in fantasy lineups, and he's more of a WR2 with WR1 upside when given enough targets. Things are murky right now, though. Expect better days ahead, but they may not start this week.
