Zach Thompson

1107 articles

Zach has been covering fantasy sports across multiple platforms and websites since 2008, and he's been playing fantasy sports since the late 90s, when he totaled the fantasy scores from the box scores in the newspaper. He has covered a variety of sports from a fantasy perspective, including the main ones like baseball, basketball, golf, football, and hockey, while also jumping into some more exotic options like Australian Rules Football and rugby. Basically, any sport that has a fantasy format--he'll play it! Even though he grew up almost 8,000 miles away in Guam, he was raised a diehard Boston sports fan. After playing soccer competitively throughout high school and college, Zach now lives in central Massachusetts with his wife and four children. He attends as many games in as many sports as possible and has found a passion for watching minor league baseball and tracking player development. Zach specializes in finding bargain plays from obscure spots, and nothing is sweeter than when a low ownership bargain option carries your fantasy team to the win!

Tua Tagovailoa a Low-End QB2 Against the Bills

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa continues to struggle at the helm of the Dolphins' offense, but he'll continue to start this week in a home game against the Bills. Last week, he threw for 261 passing yards and one interception on Thursday Night Football against the Ravens. He didn't throw any touchdowns, and he has […]


Kelly Olynyk Cleared to Play on Friday

San Antonio Spurs center/power forward Kelly Olynyk (heel) was questionable for the first half of the team's back-to-back on Friday at home against the Rockets, but he was upgraded to available. In his season debut on Wednesday, he chipped in four points, four rebounds, and three assists across nine minutes. With Luke Kornet (ankle) sidelined […]


Jeremy Sochan Available to Play Friday Against Houston

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Jeremy Sochan (wrist) will be available to play on Friday night when the Spurs host the Rockets. Sochan missed the first six games of the season before making his season debut in 23 minutes off the bench on Wednesday against the Lakers. He chipped in 16 points, two rebounds, and a […]


Luke Kennard Ruled Out Friday Against the Raptors

Atlanta Hawks guard Luke Kennard (illness) will not play Friday night after being downgraded from questionable to out for Friday's home game against Toronto. Kennard has averaged 25.3 minutes per game off the bench for Atlanta this season, chipping in 8.5 points, 2.1 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 1.3 three-pointers per game. With Trae Young (knee) […]


Domantas Sabonis Will Not Play Friday vs. the Thunder

Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis (ribs) will miss a second straight game on Friday when the Kings host the Thunder in one of the late games on Friday's jam-packed schedule. Sabonis missed the season opener and was also sidelined on Wednesday against the Warriors, when Drew Eubanks started in his place and had 12 points, […]

When Will Brandon Aiyuk Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 10 (2025)

The 49ers have been forced to deal with multiple key injuries this season, but they have still managed to go 6-3 in their first nine games. They're squarely in the playoff hunt coming down the stretch in a very competitive NFC West. One player who could make a huge difference if he's able to get […]


Isiah Pacheco - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News

When Will Isiah Pacheco Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 10 (2025)

The Chiefs took a tough loss to the Bills in Week 9, headed into their Week 10 bye week. They were without running back Isiah Pacheco for that contest, after he had started to take the majority of the work in the team's backfield timeshare. Pacheco suffered a broken leg in Week 2 last season […]

9 Running Back Committees With Upside: Key Fantasy Football Takeaways for Week 10

As the NFL season turns the corner and heads to the back nine of the 18-week regular season, more and more teams are moving to a timeshare in the backfield. Every week, it feels like more committees emerge and new running back options step up. As teams rotate multiple players, the fantasy production is spread […]

Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups - Darnell Mooney, Parker Washington, DeMario Douglas Fantasy Football Outlooks

Wide receiver is a very deep position in fantasy football, but it's also one that is contantly shifting and evolving. With players on the move at the trade deadline, others dealing with injuries, and some young players breaking out, the position features many new options emerging for fantasy football. As you hit the waiver wire […]


Jakob Poeltl Questionable Vs. the Bucks on Tuesday

Toronto Raptors center Jakob Poeltl (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday night's home game against the visiting Bucks. Poeltl has missed the team's last three games but was able to practice on Monday. If he gets back into the rotation, he'd likely push rookie first-rounder Collin Murray-Boyles to the bench and reduce his streaming […]


Kawhi Leonard Uncertain for Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (ankle, injury management) could sit out Tuesday night's matchup against the Thunder since it is the second game of a back-to-back for the Clippers. After Monday's game, coach Ty Lue said he's not sure about the status of Leonard or Bradley Beal for the second game of the back-to-back. […]


Precious Achiuwa Has Agreed to Sign With the Kings

Free agent forward/center Precious Achiuwa has agreed to a one-year deal with the Kings after being released by the Heat just before opening night. Achiuwa played with the Knicks last year and averaged 6.6 points and 5.6 rebounds while shooting 50% on field goal attempts in 20.5 minutes per contest. He's known mostly for his […]


Darius Garland Could Make Season Debut As Early As Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland (toe) is getting set to make his season debut after offseason surgery to repair a big toe injury. He could be back as soon as Wednesday night when the Cavaliers take on the 76ers, according to the latest report from ESPN's Shams Charania. Garland's debut will have a huge […]


Jimmy Butler III Downgraded to Questionable Against the Suns

Golden State Warriors forward Jimmy Butler III (back) was added to the injury report as questionable for Tuesday night's home game against Phoenix with lower back soreness. Butler has been excellent in his seven games this season with the Warriors, producing 21.4 points, 5.6 rebounds, 4.9 assists, and 1.3 steals in 33.4 minutes per game. […]


LaMelo Ball Will Not Play Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) was downgraded from questionable to out for Tuesday night's matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans due to a right ankle impingement. Ball will be out for the second straight game after also missing Sunday's game against the Jazz. In his place, Sion Jones started and had 15 points, […]


Chimere Dike - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups - Chimere Dike, Elic Ayomanor, Olamide Zaccheaus Fantasy Football Outlooks

Wide receiver can be a wild position from week to week, but there are always fringe options who emerge as strong plays with good upside each week as well. As we head into Week 10, a few offenses are focusing on new pass-catchers, and those new options are stepping up as fantasy contributors as well. […]


DeMario Douglas Hits 100 Yards for the First Time In His Career

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas had his best game of 2025 in Week 9 against the Falcons, posting a season-high four catches for his first 100-yard performance in his three years with the Patriots. Douglas stepped up in place of Kayshon Boutte (hamstring), who exited early with an injury, and he could stay […]


Darius Slayton Posts New Season-High in Receiving Yards

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton finished Week 9's loss to the 49ers with five catches on seven targets for a team-high 62 receiving yards. It was also his best personal total of the year as he continues to work as one of rookie Jaxson Dart's top receivers. He came close to an even […]


Marcus Mariota Expected to Return to Starting Role for Washington

Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota is expected to be the Commanders' starting QB for the next several weeks following the elbow injury suffered by Jayden Daniels on Sunday night. Daniels is without a timetable to return, but could still be back this season. He'll be sidelined for a while, though, which will allow Mariota to […]


Logan Wilson Traded to the Cowboys

The Cincinnati Bengals are trading linebacker Logan Wilson to the Cowboys in exchange for a 2026 seventh-round draft pick. Wilson was a third-round pick from Wyoming and developed into a key contributor on the Begals defense with at least 100 total tackles in each of the last four seasons. In July of 2023, he signed […]


Terrell Jennings Scores His First NFL Touchdown

New England Patriots running back Terrell Jennings got his biggest workload of the season in Week 9 against the Falcons, and he converted his 11 carries to 35 rushing yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' 24-23 win. He hauled in his only target for a nine-yard catch as well. The undrafted rookie from Florida […]


Tez Johnson Ready to Resume Rookie Breakout

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Tez Johnson will return from his Week 9 bye week and face the Patriots in Week 10, and he makes a great option off the waiver wire if he's available in your league. The seventh-rounder out of Oregon has stepped up in the last few weeks with multiple Bucs receivers […]


Mason Taylor Is a Great Pickup After His Bye Week

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor is one of the best waiver wire pickups available this week, as he and the Jets return from their bye week. The second-round rookie went into the off week on a high note by snagging the game-winning pass (from RB Breece Hall) against the Bengals to secure the […]


Brashard Smith Worth a Waiver-Wire Stash?

Kansas City Chiefs running back Brashard Smith continues to be a part of the Chiefs' backfield rotation, but he had a disappointing showing in Week 9 against the Bills. He had three carries for seven yards and couldn't haul in his only target. The converted receiver was drafted by the Chiefs in the seventh round, […]


Harold Fannin Jr. Ready to Roll Coming Off the Browns' Bye Week

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. will be back in action in Week 10 after the team had its bye in Week 9. The third-round rookie from Bowling Green has been excellent in his first eight games in the NFL, averaging 4.8 catches for 44 yards per game. He scored his second touchdown of […]


Bhayshul Tuten Involved in Jaguars Return from Their Bye Week

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten matched his season-high with 10 offensive touches in Week 9, taking nine carries for 29 yards and his third NFL touchdown while also adding a catch on his only target for a loss of three yards. While he was involved, Tuten still played solidly behind Travis Etienne Jr., who […]
