Jamaal Williams Rushes For 81 Yards
Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams handled 24 rushes for 81 yards in the win over the Green Bay Packers. He didn't catch a pass or score a touchdown, so his fantasy output puts him in the bust category for Week 9. That said, he continues to lead the Lions' backfield with D'Andre Swift (shoulder) […]

Jared Goff Throws Two Touchdowns In Win
Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff threw for 137 yards and two touchdowns on 14 completions in the 15-9 win over the Green Bay Packers. He also threw one interception. It wasn't a nuclear fantasy day since his yardage total was low, but he was a fine streamer in a week with six teams on a […]

Adam Thielen Totals 67 Receiving Yards In Week 9 Win
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen caught three of seven targets for 67 yards in the team's Week 9 win over the Commanders. Thielen was able to connect on a 36-yard play from Kirk Cousins, which salvaged a potentially disastrous day of fantasy production. The veteran has remained an important part of the Minnesota offense, […]

Aaron Rodgers Throws Three Interceptions During Week 9 Loss
Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 23-of-43 passes for 291 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions during the team's 15-9 loss to the Detroit Lions. The reigning MVP added 40 yards on four carries. This was an abysmal performance in what should have been a get-right matchup for Rodgers and the entire Packers offense. […]

Hunter Henry Leads Pats With 50 Receiving Yards
New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry caught all four targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Indianapolis Colts. He led the Patriots in receiving yards but was tied for third on the team with four targets, along with Kendrick Bourne, Tyquan Thornton, and Jonnu Smith. It was the first time since […]

Justin Jefferson Totals 115 Receiving Yards, Finds End Zone
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson caught seven of 13 targets for 115 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 9 over the Commanders. He added a 10-yard carry on a third-down jet sweep play and was able to connect a 47-yard pass from quarterback Kirk Cousins in this one. The third-year stud will […]

Dalvin Cook Finds End Zone In Week 9 Win
Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook carried the ball 17 times for 47 yards and caught two passes for nine yards and a score in the 20-17 win over the Commanders in Week 9. Cook couldn't get much going on the ground, as he salvaged a potentially disastrous fantasy performance with a fourth-quarter touchdown on […]

Sam Ehlinger Brutal In Week 9 Blowout Loss
Indianapolis Colts quarterback Sam Ehlinger completed 15 of 29 passes for 103 yards and zero touchdowns while adding an interception in the Week 9 loss to the New England Patriots. This one never seemed close, as New England's defense dominated from start to finish, holding the Colts offense to just 121 yards. Ehlinger hasn't looked […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Catches TD In Win Over Colts
New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson rushed for 60 yards on 15 attempts while catching three of seven targets for 10 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Indianapolis Colts. Mac Jones connected with Stevenson for a three-yard touchdown in the second quarter for the Patriots' only offensive score in Sunday's […]

Kirk Cousins Throws For 265 Yards, Two Touchdowns
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins completed 22-of-40 passes for 265 yards and two touchdowns as the Vikings improved to 7-1 with a 20-17 win over the Commanders. Cousins wasn't all that efficient in this one, but his high passing volume helped him turn in a solid week of fantasy production once again. He was injured […]

Mac Jones Throws Touchdown Pass In Win Over Colts
New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones completed 20-of-30 pass attempts for 147 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-3 win over the Indianapolis Colts. He connected with Rhamondre Stevenson for a three-yard score during the second quarter for his only touchdown in Sunday's victory. Jones had modest results as New England's defense stymied the Colts […]

Deon Jackson Shut Down Against Patriots
Indianapolis Colts running back Deon Jackson rushed 11 times for 23 yards while adding two catches for 13 yards in Week 9 against the New England Patriots. Jackson started this one but was shut down in a game where the Patriots defense completely dominated from start to finish. Quarterback Sam Ehlinger actually led the team […]

Greg Rousseau Injured On Sunday
Buffalo Bills defensive end Greg Rousseau (ankle) is questionable to return in the Week 9 game against the New York Jets after injuring his ankle in the first half. Rousseau didn't have a single tackle before departing the contest. If the former first-rounder cannot return, Buffalo's defensive line will be at less than full strength […]

Cameron Dantzler Ruled Out Against Packers
Minnesota Vikings cornerback Cameron Dantzler (ankle) was ruled out for the rest of the Week 9 game against the Washington Commanders with an ankle injury. Dantzler suffered the injury in the first half and was ruled out in the second half. With the 24-year-old out for the rest of the game, the Vikings will ask […]

Van Jefferson Active For Week 9
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (knee) is active for Week 9 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He had been listed as questionable after logging limited practice sessions all week long. The 26-year-old logged a 53 percent snap share in his season debut last week but was not targeted. He can be left on […]

Aaron Jones Questionable To Return In Week 9
Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones (ankle) is questionable to return against the Detroit Lions in Week 9. He exited in the third quarter of the close divisional battle. If Jones is forced to miss any time, AJ Dillon would serve as the lead back, ranking as a solid RB2 option in fantasy football.

Cam Akers Officially Active Sunday
Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (personal) is officially active for Week 9 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After missing two games due to an internal dispute with the team, he's back in action and could serve as the lead back. Darrell Henderson, Ronnie Rivers, and Malcolm Brown should serve in supporting roles.

Christian Watson, Rashan Gary Exit With Injuries In Week 9
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (head) exited Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions and is being evaluated for a concussion. Presumably, under the terms of the NFL's new protocol, Watson will be unable to return. He finishes with two catches for 24 yards. Meanwhile, pass rusher Rashan Gary (knee) was carted to the […]

Craig Reynolds Ruled Out Sunday
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (ribs) has been downgraded to out for the remainder of Week 9 against the Green Bay Packers. The team will move forward with Jamaal Williams and D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) handling all duties out of the backfield.

Baker Mayfield Replaces PJ Walker In Week 9
Carolina Panthers quarterback PJ Walker has been benched following an atrocious first half against the Cincinnati Bengals. Baker Mayfield took over to open the second half, looking to eat away at a brutal 35-point deficit. Neither player should be viewed as anything more than a QB3 in fantasy football going forward.

Romeo Doubs Ruled Out, David Bakhtiari Questionable To Return
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs (ankle) has been downgraded to out for the remainder of Week 9. He had been carted to the locker room and was initially listed as questionable. Now, though, he's done for the day. He caught one pass for 18 yards before exiting the game. Sammy Watkins and Christian […]

James Conner Returning In Week 9
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ribs) is officially active for Week 9 against the Seattle Seahawks. He had been listed as questionable but will ultimately return after a three-game absence. He should handle rushing duties for Arizona while Eno Benjamin plays passing downs. Both players are solid RB3 options in fantasy football this week.

Mark Andrews Downgraded To Out For Week 9
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (knee) has been downgraded to out for Week 9. He will not play against the New Orleans Saints on Monday night. With the Ravens on bye in Week 10, Andrews will have plenty of time to heal up and recover before trying to return in Week 11. For the […]

Craig Reynolds Questionable To Return Sunday
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (ribs) is officially questionable to return against the Green Bay Packers in Week 9. The Lions are already struggling at the running back position with D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) on a snap count, so losing Reynolds further complicates the Lions' offensive makeup.

Calvin Ridley Will Be Ready In 2023
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Calvin Ridley (suspension) has been staying in shape and will be ready to return once he is reinstated in 2023, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Traded from the Atlanta Falcons last week, Ridley "is working out as if he had a game Sunday." The 27-year-old hasn't played a normal season since […]

Keenan Allen Trending Up, Won't Require IR Stint
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) is "close to turning the corner" and won't be placed on injured reserve, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. Allen has only played parts of two games this season, and to make matters worse, the Chargers are also without Mike Williams (ankle). Once he returns, Allen can be […]

Kadarius Toney Fully Recovered For Week 9
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney (hamstring) was considered fully healthy when he was traded from the New York Giants last week. As a result, as they come out of their bye, Toney will be active for his Chiefs debut. Toney produce 39 catches for 420 yards through 10 games as a rookie last […]

Cam Akers' Role Will Depend On Game Flow
Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (personal) will return in Week 9, but his role "will be predicated on the flow of the game," according to ESPN.com's Adam Schefter. Akers missed two games but could immediately operate as the Rams' lead back after Ronnie Rivers and Darrell Henderson Jr. have underwhelmed. He should be […]

Romeo Doubs Questionable To Return In Week 9
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs (ankle) was carted to the locker room and is officially listed as questionable to return against the Detroit Lions. He caught one pass for 18 yards before exiting the game. Sammy Watkins and Christian Watson will likely see more snaps in his absence, operating behind Allen Lazard.

Ryan Tannehill Likely A Game-Time Decision
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) is expected to be a game-time decision in Week 9, according to NFL.com's Ian Rapoport. The 34-year-old is listed as questionable and traveled with the team to Kansas City, but there has been some speculation that he could be held out one more week if he's not 100 percent. […]
