Pat Bryant Catches Long Pass Against Las Vegas
Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant saw two targets during Thursday's loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. He finished with one catch -- a 43-yard reception -- and was the Broncos' receiving yards leader in an underwhelming performance from the passing game. Bryant now has five catches, 103 yards, and one touchdown over his last three games. He has maintained very steady involvement in the offensive attack, logging around 50 percent of the offensive snaps in each of the last six weeks. The rookie out of Illinois doesn't have standalone fantasy value quite yet, but he is one step closer to establishing himself as the full-time No. 3 receiver behind Courtland Sutton and Troy Franklin. If Marvin Mims Jr. (concussion) continues to miss time, Bryant will see more meaningful involvement.

Tyler Lockett Heavily Involved in Second Game with New Team
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tyler Lockett caught five of his six targets for 44 yards during Thursday's Week 10 loss against the Denver Broncos. The veteran receiver made his Raiders debut last week, but he saw just one target in that game, so Thursday's outing represented a major increase in volume for the veteran wideout. Lockett established himself as quarterback Geno Smith's favorite target after the Raiders traded Jakobi Meyers to the Jaguars. While Lockett doesn't represent a long-term receiving threat in Las Vegas' rebuild, he still has redraft appeal as a low-end WR3/flex, especially given his connection to Smith and head coach Pete Carroll from their time together in Seattle.

Ashton Jeanty Scores Touchdown in High-Volume Outing
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty had 19 carries for 60 rushing yards and a touchdown during Thursday's Week 10 loss against the Denver Broncos. He also caught three of his five targets for an additional three receiving yards. The rookie was relatively inefficient on the ground and through the air, but managers should be intrigued by his high-volume role and touchdown despite the loss. He played 87 percent of the offensive snaps on Thursday Night Football, maintaining a significant workload in a slightly negative game script scenario. He should continue to be viewed as a fringe top-12 fantasy running back.

RJ Harvey Ends Touchdown Streak on Thursday Night
Denver Broncos rookie running back RJ Harvey fell back down to earth as the offense struggled to produce much in Thursday's 10-7 win against their division rival, the Las Vegas Raiders. The Broncos' rookie running back rushed for nine yards on four carries while catching two of three targets for nine yards in Thursday's victory. Harvey had scored subsequently over the past three weeks, but the Broncos only produced 10 points as a unit on Thursday night. Counterpart J.K. Dobbins has been dominating the backfield touches and continued to do so, out-touching Harvey 19-6 in this matchup. There was a red zone possession that Harvey seemed to be featured on, but with the lack of offensive scoring this week, it was hard for him to unlock his weekly scoring upside. Despite a disappointing performance on Thursday, Harvey remains a high-end FLEX play and will look to bounce back against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11.

J.K. Dobbins Dominates Backfield in Touches Once Again
Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins fought through some pain in the second half as he paced the backfield with touches again, showing great patience and swift cuts in Thursday's 10-7 win against the Las Vegas Raiders in their primetime matchup. With 18 rush attempts on the night, Dobbins worked hard for his 77 yards against a Raiders defense that certainly came to play. Dobbins added one catch for seven yards on a night where quarterback Bo Nix struggled to produce much for the offense. The veteran out-touched running back mate RJ Harvey 19-6 is encouraging for his control in the offense, but notably, Harvey did steal a red-zone possession from Dobbins. Still looking to end the touchdown drought, Dobbins should maintain his healthy floor on a volume basis alone and is an RB2 in Week 11's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Troy Franklin Continues Emergence as Broncos WR1
Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin caught his fourth touchdown in four weeks in Thursday's 10-7 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. He finished with five catches for 40 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's victory. Broncos head coach Sean Payton has consistently schemed Franklin into the offense as the season has progressed, and Franklin once again paced the team in targets with nine. The 22-year-old continued to have some disappointing plays, one in particular in which he earned a target that could've been a good chunk of yardage, which bounced off his chest to become an interception in the fourth quarter. Franklin certainly rewarded those who trusted him enough as a WR3/ flex option in Week 10 lineups, and he will look to find the end zone again in next Sunday's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs.

Courtland Sutton Struggles to Produce Against the Raiders in Week 10
Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton continues to take a backseat to counterpart Troy Franklin in Thursday’s 10-7 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Sutton was actually third in line for targets and total receiving yards on the night, ending with just three catches on four targets for 24 yards, and zero touchdowns. For the record, quarterback Bo Nix seemed to have a rough outing against the Raiders and only provided 150 passing yards and one touchdown on the night. He will continue to be on the field for most offensive plays and should have more opportunities when the offense is in a better rhythm. Sutton will look to rebound in a highly anticipated matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11.

Bo Nix Pulls Out an Ugly Win Against the Raiders
Denver Broncos quarterback Bo Nix had a rough outing against their division rival, the Las Vegas Raiders, in Thursday's 10-7 win. Nix would end the night completing 16 of 28 pass attempts for only 150 passing yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions while adding five rushes for negative two yards. It was a rough showing for the passing offense as a whole, and the offense often drew boos as it stalled throughout the night. Notably, rough winds were swirling through the stadium throughout the night, but Nix still put up a disappointing performance for those who started him this week. Nix will look to bounce back against division rivals, the Kansas City Chiefs, in Week 11.

Brock Purdy Getting Closer, Still Questionable for Week 10
San Francisco 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan said on Thursday that quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) is "getting closer to returning," according to Clayton Holloway of NFL Network. The 49ers will decide on Friday whether or not Purdy will play on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in Week 10. "Yeah, pretty confident we'll see him this year," Shanahan said when asked if he's confident that Purdy will play again this season. The 25-year-old was limited in practice again on Thursday. He will need to upgrade to a full practice on Friday to play this weekend for the first time since aggravating a turf-toe injury in the Week 4 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. Purdy has only played in two games in 2025, so there will certainly be a rust factor to think about in fantasy if he's able to return this Sunday against a formidable Rams defense. It seems as though the Niners are leaning toward giving Mac Jones his eighth start of the year.

Chris Godwin Might Not Return Until Late November, Early December
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin (leg), who hasn't played since Oct. 5 due to a fibula injury, might not return until late November or early December, according to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN. Godwin has missed the last three games and has not practiced yet this week, so it's looking likely he'll miss a fourth straight game in Week 10 against the New England Patriots. The 29-year-old got a late start to the year in 2025 after recovering from a gruesome dislocated ankle that he suffered in Week 7 of last season, and then he injured his fibula shortly after returning. The Bucs just aren't going to rush Godwin back into the fold, even though they may be without future Hall of Fame receiver Mike Evans (collarbone) for the rest of the season. It means that rookies Emeka Egbuka and Tez Johnson could be quarterback Baker Mayfield's top two targets for several more weeks.

Colts Believe in Daniel Jones as Their Franchise QB
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport said that the Indianapolis Colts believe that quarterback Daniel Jones is their "franchise guy" at the position, which is why they shipped two first-round picks and receiver Adonai Mitchell to the New York Jets at Tuesday's trade deadline to secure the services of All-Pro cornerback Sauce Gardner to help their secondary. Jones laid an egg in the Week 9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, throwing three interceptions and also fumbling three times, but he also threw for a season-high 342 yards on 31 of 50 passing. Overall, in his first year in Indy, Jones has been great, completing a career-best 69.6% of his passes for a league-high 2,404 yards, 14 touchdowns, and six interceptions in nine games. The former first-rounder has led Indy to a 7-2 record and is generating buzz as an MVP candidate. The jury is out on whether Jones can keep this up, but the Colts' strong ground game and offensive line have certainly taken the pressure off of him.

Puka Nacua Practices in Full, Says he Feels Good
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (ribs) said his ribs are feeling good after practicing in full on Thursday, according to Adam Grosbard of the Los Angeles Daily News. It's an upgrade for Nacua, who was listed as limited in the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. All signs are pointing to the 24-year-old All-Pro wideout being able to play this Sunday in a big divisional battle against the San Francisco 49ers after he left the Week 9 win over the New Orleans Saints with a rib injury. The Rams have been optimistic about Nacua's status all week, and the star wideout likely would have returned to last Sunday's game if it had been close. Despite leaving early against the Saints, the former fifth-rounder still had seven catches for 95 yards and a touchdown on his eight targets. Nacua is a no-doubt, high-end WR1 in fantasy football when he's active.

A.J. Brown Listed as Full Participant in Thursday's Practice
Updating a previous report, Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) was able to practice in full at the team's first practice of the week on Thursday. It's music to fantasy managers' ears after Brown was forced to sit out of the Week 8 win over the New York Giants due to a hamstring injury. The 28-year-old was able to get extra rest during the team's Week 9 bye, though, and the extra time off has apparently done him well. Barring a setback with his hamstring, Brown should be all systems go in Week 10 for a Monday night showdown against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. Coming into Week 10, Brown is averaging only 10.3 half-PPR fantasy points per week, which is tied for 35th among receivers. The matchup against Green Bay's defense isn't ideal, but fantasy managers can take comfort in knowing that Philly's passing attack was starting to hum before the bye. Brown is still a must-start WR in fantasy because of his high ceiling when he's clicking.

Saquon Barkley Practicing in Full Coming Out of Bye Week
Updating a previous report, Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (groin) was listed as a full participant in Thursday's practice. Barkley was forced to leave the Week 8 win against the New York Giants late in the third quarter, but not before galloping for 150 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries while adding four catches for 24 yards and another trip to paydirt. The Eagles' bye in Week 9 definitely came at a good time, and it appears that Barkley should be ready to roll by Monday night for the team's Week 10 contest against the Green Bay Packers at Lambeau Field. Barkley's performance in Week 8 was his first 100-yard rushing game of the year, and fantasy managers will be hoping he can keep that momentum after having a week off. Overall, Barkley has averaged only 4.1 yards per carry after averaging 5.8 yards per tote in 2024 on his way to Offensive Player of the Year honors.

Darnell Washington Returns to Practice on Thursday
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Darnell Washington (foot) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out Wednesday's session due to a foot injury, according to Alan Saunders of PGH Steelers Now. Washington's return to practice on Thursday gives him a chance to play this coming Sunday night against the Los Angeles Chargers. The hulking 6-foot-7, 264-pounder is in his third year in the NFL with Pittsburgh and has recorded 13 catches for 127 yards and a touchdown on his 20 targets through eight games this year. Washington's size makes him an intriguing red-zone target for veteran quarterback Aaron Rodgers, but his volume has been limited behind fellow tight ends Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith. Washington should be able to suit up in Week 10, but he'll remain a touchdown-dependent TE3 in fantasy. UPDATE: Washington practiced in full on Thursday.
