Tank Bigsby Could be New Primary Handcuff in Eagles Backfield
Philadelphia Eagles running back Tank Bigsby took over lead back duties in Week 8 after Saquon Barkley left the game early due to a groin injury. Despite logging zero offensive snaps in his first five weeks on the team, Bigsby has seemingly jumped up to being the primary backfield backup after getting nine carries for 104 yards against the Giants. It's unlikely the former Jaguar will see much action this week against the Packers-or any game that Barkley plays in for that matter-but keep an eye on Bigsby as a top-tier handcuff in a pinch.

Saquon Barkley Back From Injury to Face Strong Packers Defense
Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (groin) was a full participant at practice on Friday and seems fully ready for Monday's game against the Packers. Before exiting in the second half of his last outing, Barkley outran the Giants defense for a 65-yard touchdown on the second play from scrimmage and finished with 174 total yards. This week, he'll face the fifth-best run defense in the league, as Green Bay lets up an average of 89.4 yards per game on the ground. Barkley has met with two other top-10 run defenses so far this year-the Broncos and the Buccaneers-and averaged 36.5 yards per game in those contests. While the inability to get going in those matchups combined with the recent injury are daunting, Philly's star back is coming off of his best performance of the season and an extra week of rest. Still consider Barkley a reliable RB1 for Week 10.

Jalen Hurts Looking for Another Touchdown-Heavy Game Against Packers
Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts comes off of the bye week to an immediate challenge as he travels to Green Bay to face a Packers defense allowing just 197 passing yards per game, which is the ninth-lowest average in the league. But, in his most recent outing, Hurts put up a season-high four touchdowns against the Giants right after his three-touchdown performance in Week 7, giving him all the momentum and a good amount of rest heading into Monday night's clash of NFC titans. In a preview of what could very possibly be a playoff matchup down the line, he also has his star receiver A.J. Brown back in the mix. Hurts has a lot going in his favor and holds a high-end QB1 spot for this primetime Week 10 battle.

Brock Wright Could See More Snaps in Week 10
Detroit Lions tight end Brock Wright has recorded nine catches for 71 yards and two touchdowns on 10 targets across eight games played in 2025. The 26-year-old is firmly behind Sam LaPorta on the Lions' tight end depth chart and sees most of his work come as a blocker. However, there's some reason to believe Wright may see the field a bit more in Week 10. The Lions have been struggling in pass protection recently, allowing 14 sacks over their last four games. Additionally, starting left tackle Taylor Decker (shoulder) and swing tackle Dan Skipper (back) are both questionable to play on Sunday against the Washington Commanders. Detroit's offensive line issues could lead to more two-tight-end sets and heavier personnel usage, which would benefit Wright. Still, it's hard to imagine he'll be able to provide even modest fantasy production without a touchdown reception in Week 10.

Lions Defense Profiles as a Low-End Starting Unit in Week 10
The Detroit Lions' defense has been a roughly mid-pack unit from a scoring perspective this season, ranking 13th in the NFL by allowing 22.3 points per game. However, Detroit has been able to force 12 turnovers across eight games and features one of the league's premier edge rushers in Aidan Hutchinson, who has recorded seven sacks and 16 QB hits so far in 2025. The Lions will face a banged-up Washington Commanders offense in Week 10. Washington will be starting veteran Marcus Mariota at quarterback with Jayden Daniels (elbow) out due to an elbow injury. Star Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin (quad) will also miss Week 10 with a lingering quad issue. It's worth noting that the Lions will remain without All-Pro safety Kerby Joseph (knee) and top cornerback D.J. Reed (hamstring) against Washington. Still, Detroit's D/ST profiles as a low-end starting fantasy unit against the shorthanded Commanders in Week 10.

Woody Marks Is High Risk But Could Be the Focus of Houston's Offense
Houston Texans running back Woody Marks could be poised to be the focus of the offense in Week 10 against the Jaguars in the absence of C.J. Stroud (concussion). Marks has been getting more snaps than his fellow running back, Nick Chubb, over the past several games, outsnapping Chubb in four of his last five games. Last week, he struggled to just 27 rushing yards on 10 carries and didn't have any catches against a tough Denver defense that knocked Stroud out of the game. Marks had been productive as a rusher and receiver in his previous games, posting double-digit PPR points in three of four weeks with three touchdowns during that span. He brings a very high ceiling, but there is also a high risk of him busting if the offense can't get going. He's the No. 29 RB in RotoBaller's rankings, making him a high-risk, high-reward flex play this week.

Roman Wilson Likely to Remain in Limited Role
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Roman Wilson posted a dud during last week's win over the Indianapolis Colts. Wilson hauled in one pass for four yards and fumbled the ball. The fact that happened could be why Wilson only saw two targets during the entire game. The week prior, Wilson hauled in four receptions for 74 yards and a touchdown. Despite being the third wideout in this offense, Wilson hasn't touched the ball much outside of his big game in Week 8. The 24-year-old does have potential, but he isn't a realistic streaming option until the Steelers get him more involved.

Isaac TeSlaa Remains Buried in Detroit Heading into Week 10
Heading into Week 10, Detroit Lions rookie wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa has now gone three games since recording his last reception. The 23-year-old has two touchdown catches on the season, but he's hauled in just three passes for 54 yards on six targets across eight games played. The Lions have a favorable matchup on paper against the Washington Commanders in Week 10. Through nine weeks, the Commanders rank last in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (8.8) and 29th in passing touchdowns allowed (19). Still, TeSlaa is buried on the target pecking order in Detroit behind wide receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, tight end Sam LaPorta, and running back Jahmyr Gibbs. TeSlaa maintains some long-term fantasy appeal, but he can't be trusted as a starting wide receiver in Week 10.

Nick Chubb A Fringe Flex Option in Week 10
Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb could help carry the load for the team against the Jaguars in Week 10, since C.J. Stroud (concussion) will be sidelined. Chubb has seen fewer snaps the last few weeks, but he still is getting double-digit carries on a regular basis. He had 11 carries for 34 yards against the Broncos last week after 17 carries for 56 yards against the 49ers in Week 8. Chubb hasn't been very dynamic this season and hasn't ripped off many big plays. He does have a pair of touchdowns on the year and can bring touchdown-dependent upside in what should be a run-heavy game script with Davis Mills at QB. If the Texans can get out front and rely on their defense, Chubb could have a heavier workload than usual. He's ranked as the No. 35 RB, making him a stretch for a flex play in standard leagues but a fringe option for deep leagues. He will need to find the end zone to deliver on his fantasy potential, though.

David Montgomery Remains a Low-End Starting Running Back Option in Week 10
Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery broke his two-game scoreless streak in Week 9, recording 50 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 12 touches against the Minnesota Vikings. However, Montgomery also coughed up a crucial fumble that played a key role in Detroit's loss to its division rival. The veteran has a lot of equity built up with the Lions coaching staff, so it's unlikely that the mistake will cost him playing time in Week 10 against the Washington Commanders. Montgomery has seen fairly consistent usage so far this season, recording between 12 and 15 touches in five out of eight games played. He remains largely dependent on touchdowns for high-end fantasy production. The Commanders have allowed an average of 33.8 points per game over the last four weeks, so Montgomery should have a decent chance to find the end zone. He profiles as a low-end fantasy RB2 in Week 10 against Washington.

Sam LaPorta Trending Upwards Heading into Favorable Week 10 Matchup
Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta had his best game of the 2025 season in Week 9, recording six catches for 97 yards and a touchdown on eight targets against the Minnesota Vikings. The 24-year-old's production has been trending upwards in recent weeks. Across his last four outings, LaPorta has hauled in 19 catches for 259 yards and three touchdowns on 23 targets. He appears to be emerging as the clear number two option in the Detroit passing game behind star wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown. LaPorta has a favorable matchup on paper in Week 10 against the Washington Commanders. Washington ranks last in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (8.8) and 29th in passing touchdowns allowed (19) through nine weeks. LaPorta profiles as a clear starting-caliber fantasy tight end in Week 10.

Jimmy Horn Jr. is Getting More Snaps
Carolina Panthers wide receiver Jimmy Horn Jr. hasn't made much of an impact on the field in recent weeks. Last week, Horn hauled in one of his two targets for one yard, while rushing the ball once for seven yards in the win over the Green Bay Packers. The good news is, Horn saw 24 percent of the offensive snaps during that game. That is the most time Horn has played on offense since his season debut in Week 5. It's worth noting that fellow wideout Tetairoa McMillan (hamstring) is questionable for Week 10. His absence would likely mean that Horn slides into the starting unit with Xavier Legette and Jalen Coker. Horn hasn't done enough to trust him as a viable streaming option, but he might be a desperation choice if McMillan is unable to play.

Christian Watson, Dontayvion Wick Limited on Friday
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Christian Watson (knee) and Dontayvion Wicks (calf) were both limited participants during Friday's practice session. Watson recently made his season debut in Week 8, so he's still working his way back into a full workload. The Packers are likely limiting him in practice as a precaution. Barring any setbacks, Watson should be out there for Monday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Wicks has missed the last two games due to a lingering calf issue. He has been limited in both practice sessions to begin the week, which points to him being active on Monday. Fellow wideout Matthew Golden (shoulder) is unlikely to play, so Wicks could see an expanded role.

Jameson Williams Set Up for Breakout Game in Week 10?
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has recorded just 21 catches for 355 yards and three touchdowns on 36 targets across eight games in 2025. However, the 24-year-old has quietly been more productive of late. Williams has recorded at least six targets, 66 receiving yards, and a touchdown in two out of his last three outings. He'll get a favorable matchup on paper in Week 10 against the Washington Commanders. Washington ranks last in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (8.8) and 29th in passing touchdowns allowed (19) through nine weeks. They will also be without top cornerback Marshon Lattimore (knee), who suffered a torn ACL in Week 9. Williams still has bust potential, but he could be set up for a boom week against Washington. Williams profiles as a solid fantasy WR3/flex option in Week 10.

Hunter Long Ruled Out for Week 10
Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Hunter Long (hip, knee) has been ruled out ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Houston Texans. Long won't be able to play this weekend after missing practice time due to multiple injuries. This is a tough break for the Jags who are still without Brenton Strange (quad) right now. It looks like Johnny Mundt and Quintin Morris will fill in at the tight end spot this weekend. Neither player is worth a look as a streaming option for Week 10.
