Blake Corum in Depth Role for Sunday's Divisional Battle
Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum could be headed for reduced volume during Sunday's Week 10 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Corum, the Rams' backup to Kyren Williams, has been heavily involved over the last two weeks, touching the ball 26 times, but his increased workload was likely a direct product of the Rams taking large leads over the Jaguars and Saints. They're expected to play a much closer game against the Niners, leaving fewer opportunities for depth players like Corum to touch the ball. In fact, when the Rams and 49ers last played against each other in Week 5, Corum had just one touch on a season-low nine percent snap share. His recent efficiency (4.46 YPC last week) should earn him more than one touch this time around, but his double-digit touch totals from the last two weeks might be out of reach. He should continue to be left on fantasy benches as a mere handcuff behind Williams.

Kyren Williams Looking to Repeat Success Against 49ers
Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams remains a must-start fantasy option in Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers as he looks to build on a successful first half of the 2025 season. Williams has 586 rushing yards, 166 receiving yards, and six touchdowns so far, ranking as the overall RB13 in PPR leagues. On paper, a matchup against the 49ers could pose a challenge for running backs, as San Francisco ranks near the middle of the league in fantasy points allowed to the position. They've also surrendered the seventh-fewest rushing touchdowns to running backs. However, Williams didn't see that level of shutdown defense when the 49ers faced the Rams in Week 5. During that matchup, the 25-year-old had 14 carries, 65 rushing yards, eight catches, 66 receiving yards, and two receiving touchdowns. His 32.1 points (PPR) represented a season-high. Williams will look to repeat his success against a banged-up 49ers defense this week, and he should continue to be deployed as an RB1 in most leagues.

Tyler Allgeier a Risky Flex Play in Potentially Poor Game Script
Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier was a non-factor last week after the Falcons got down early, recording just two rushes for six yards. The 25-year-old now has 11 rushes for 30 yards and one touchdown in the team's last four losses, compared to 42 rushes for 159 yards and three touchdowns in their three wins. Unless the Falcons can keep Week 10's matchup close, Allgeier could be an afterthought again. Atlanta is a 6.5-point underdog versus the Colts in Germany on Sunday, and with the fourth-year pro having basically no involvement in the passing game, he's a touchdown-dependent RB4/Flex play this week with very little upside and a near-zero floor.

Marvin Harrison Jr. A Low-End WR1 For Week 10 Against Seahawks
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. is coming off one of the best games of his career in Week 9's win over the Dallas Cowboys, catching seven of his 10 targets for 96 yards and a touchdown. The seven receptions marked a career high for Harrison, while the 96 yards were his most since Week 4 against the Seahawks. The second-year wideout has benefited from having Jacoby Brissett as the starting quarterback and should continue to see better fantasy days moving forward. The 23-year-old has totaled 31 catches for 492 yards and three touchdowns on 50 targets in eight games this season. Harrison has a tougher matchup against a good Seahawks defense, but he performed well against them earlier this year, and his value is on the rise after a strong Week 9 performance. Harrison is ranked as RotoBaller's WR11 in PPR leagues for Week 10.

Matthew Stafford Looks to Build on MVP Candidacy in San Francisco
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is having one of the best seasons of his career, and he remains a must-start fantasy quarterback in Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers despite his limited rushing upside. Stafford now has 16 touchdowns and zero interceptions over his last five games, leading the Rams to a 6-2 start while supporting big fantasy performances from Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, and Kyren Williams. Stafford himself is the overall QB9 so far, and he's fourth in the MVP race with +500 odds. He has become matchup-proof this season and should be started against all opponents. With that said, a matchup against the San Francisco 49ers certainly doesn't hurt. The Niners have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2025 and have forced just one interception. Stafford racked up 389 yards and three touchdowns when he faced the 49ers earlier this season.

Bam Knight A Low-End Flex Option For Week 10 Matchup Versus Seahawks
Arizona Cardinals running back Bam Knight has operated as the team's lead back over the past three games, recording 34 carries for 118 yards and a touchdown and adding six receptions (eight targets) for 47 yards. Knight has played 104 total snaps since Week 6, with the next closest Cardinals running back being Michael Carter at 57, but he didn't record a single snap in their Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys. The 25-year-old Knight was out-gained by Emari Demercado in that game, but saw a season high in snap share of 56.9% to Demercado's 40%. It looks like Arizona is trending toward becoming a split two-man backfield between Knight and Demercado, but nothing is set in stone. Head coach Jonathan Gannon has been tight-lipped about how they will distribute the running back touches week to week, but Knight should again be expected to lead Arizona's backfield on early downs in a tough Week 10 matchup against a Seahawks defense that is allowing a league-best 3.5 yards per carry.

Cedric Tillman Activated From Injured Reserve
The Cleveland Browns activated wide receiver Cedric Tillman (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Saturday, per Adam Schefter of ESPN. Tillman was able to practice in full every day this week and will make his return in Week 10 against the New York Jets after missing four weeks due to a hamstring injury. Tillman was productive over the first four games of the season, catching 11 of his 20 targets for 106 yards and two touchdowns. The 25-year-old wideout had a mini-breakout last season after the Browns traded away Amari Cooper, catching 24 of 40 targets for 302 yards and three touchdowns in a four-game span before his season was cut short due to a concussion. Cleveland's offensive environment is not as favorable this season with Dillon Gabriel at the helm, and while Tillman presents some upside, he shouldn't be in fantasy lineups for Week 10.

Dylan Sampson an RB5 in Week 10 vs. Jets
Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson has shown skills in the passing attack this season, most recently hauling in five of his six targets for 29 yards in a Week 8 loss to the New England Patriots. Sampson will now take on the New York Jets on the road in Week 10 after enjoying his bye in Week 9. The Jets have struggled against the run this season, allowing the eighth-most fantasy points per game to running backs thus far. That being said, Sampson is tough to trust in fantasy as the Browns have been relying heavily on Quinshon Judkins in the rushing attack. Sampson will need to do his damage in the passing game to return fantasy value, something that is not a given in a game where the Browns are two-point road favorites against New York.

Jerome Ford Not a Strong Fantasy Option in Week 10
Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford will come out of his bye to take on the New York Jets on the road in Week 10. Ford has been lightly used behind starter Quinshon Judkins this season, seeing just 21 carries and 21 receptions over eight games. The veteran running back draws a plus matchup in theory against the Jets, who are allowing the eighth-most fantasy points per game to running backs. That said, Ford is unlikely to see a large enough workload to rack up fantasy points against New York. He remains a solid bench stash as a handcuff, but should not be in fantasy lineups heading into Week 10.

Emari Demercado Has Flex Value in Week 10 Against Seattle
Arizona Cardinals running back Emari Demercado led the team in rushing in their Week 9 win over the Dallas Cowboys, handling 14 carries for 79 yards. Demercado's role for Week 10, however, is still uncertain after head coach Jonathan Gannon has provided no insight whatsoever into their plans for how they will manage the backfield on Sunday in Seattle. Arizona's backfield has been a nightmare for fantasy managers to figure out recently, but Demercado provides some element of explosiveness and big-play ability that Bam Knight and Michael Carter don't offer. Knight has maintained the slight upper hand on snaps in recent weeks, while Carter has slid to the RB3 role. Demercado has the most juice as a receiver out of the backfield, which is an area that Seattle has struggled with this season, allowing the second-most receptions (48) to opposing running backs. It's tough to know for certain, but Knight and Demercado project to split most of the touches on Sunday, with Knight on early downs and Demercado on pass downs.

Jacoby Brissett Ranks As Low-End QB2 In Tough Week 10 Matchup Against Seattle
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Jacoby Brissett is in line to make his fourth start of the season, with Kyler Murray (foot) placed on Injured Reserve and his future with the team being in question. Brissett has provided a jolt for the Cardinals' offense since becoming the starter in Week 6, completing 65.8% of his passes for 860 yards, six touchdowns, and one interception while adding 14 carries for 49 yards and another score on the ground. The 32-year-old has averaged 22.8 fantasy points and ranks as QB10 during that span. Brissett has elevated the offense with his ability to work on time and in structure, with Marvin Harrison Jr. recording a career high seven catches in their Week 9 win at the Dallas Cowboys and feeding star tight end Trey McBride targets in the red zone, with him scoring four touchdowns in Brissett's three starts. Brissett faces a tough matchup in Week 10, as they face the division-leading Seattle Seahawks, who allow just a 5.4 net yards per pass attempt this season, the seventh-best mark in the league.

Juwan Johnson Poised for Bigger Role in Week 10
New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson caught the only Saints touchdown in Week 9 against the Rams, finishing with three receptions for 31 yards on four targets. This marked his sixth game of the season with at least 50 receiving yards or a touchdown. The return of fellow tight ends Taysom Hill and Foster Moreau briefly lowered Johnson's stock, but he has bounced back with 13 receptions for 163 yards and a touchdown over his last three games. With Rashid Shaheed traded at the deadline and the Saints lacking depth at the receiver position, Johnson should be in line for an uptick in targets. He ranks as a borderline TE1/TE2 against the Panthers in Week 10, who allow the 13th-most PPR points to tight ends.

Brock Purdy Could Return in Week 11
San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) is getting a lot closer to returning, and the team is hopeful that he can start in Week 11 against the Arizona Cardinals, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. The 49ers will decide before their matchup on Sunday against the Rams if Purdy will be active as the team's No. 2 quarterback behind Mac Jones, a promising sign in his recovery. Purdy came back in Week 4 against the Jaguars, but ultimately made the turf toe injury worse and has since missed five consecutive games. The 25-year-old hasn't registered a full practice since Week 4, but it looks like he is getting close to returning as San Francisco's QB1. Jones has filled in admirably in Purdy's absence, but he will move back to being the backup quarterback once Purdy is ready to go.

Chris Olave Set to Lead Saints' Passing Attack Against Panthers
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave caught three of four targets for 57 yards in the Week 9 loss to the Rams. The four targets marked a season low after he entered the week ranked second in the league in targets while Spencer Rattler was under center. With rookie Tyler Shough now at the helm, the two will need to develop chemistry quickly, especially after the Saints traded away Rashid Shaheed, who led the team in targets during Shough's first start. Olave is averaging a career-low 10.2 yards per reception but a career-high 6.1 catches per game, showcasing his reliability as the clear No. 1 option in the passing game. His ceiling remains high, though quarterback uncertainty keeps him in the WR2 range for Week 10 against a tough Panthers defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest PPR points to wide receivers.

Kyle Pitts Sr. a Solid TE1 in Week 10 Matchup Against Colts
Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. is seeing consistent looks in this offense in 2025, averaging over six targets, five catches, and 47 yards per game this season. Unfortunately, it has yet to translate to touchdowns, as the 25-year-old has recorded just one score on the year. That could change this weekend, as Week 10 brings a matchup in Germany against the Colts. Indianapolis has allowed the fourth-most passing yards per game in the NFL over its last three games (268.7) and has allowed 24.5 points per game on the road (16.6 PPG at home). Not only that, they've yielded a touchdown pass to a tight end in four consecutive games now. With newly acquired CB Sauce Gardner set to cover Drake London or another receiver, it could open things up more for Pitts, so the 6-foot-6 tight end projects as a top 10 option at the position this week.
