Tyler Allgeier Becoming a Sneaky Flex Option
Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier logged 11 carries for 57 yards and a season-high two touchdowns in the team's 31-25 overtime loss to the Indianapolis Colts. While Bijan Robinson managers may view Allgeier as a frustrating timeshare partner, the fourth-year back is quietly becoming fantasy-relevant. In games the Falcons have either won or pushed to overtime, Allgeier has averaged 13.6 carries for 56.5 yards and five touchdowns across four games. With three upcoming games where Atlanta projects as a favorite, Allgeier could continue to provide sneaky fantasy value as a touchdown-dependent flex option for desperate teams.

Darius Slayton's Fantasy Value Hinges on Health of QB
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton caught all four of his targets for 89 yards in the team's 24-20 loss to the Chicago Bears. Slayton briefly exited with a hamstring injury but returned in the third quarter to post his highest yardage total of the season. Since Malik Nabers tore his ACL in Week 4, Slayton has had to step up as one of the Giants' primary receiving options. However, rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart left the game with a concussion and is uncertain for Week 11 against the Green Bay Packers. Slayton's fantasy outlook will hinge on Dart's availability, as his production would likely drop if Russell Wilson starts in his place.

Jerry Jeudy Worth Adding Off the Waiver Wire?
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy put up his best game of the 2025 season in Week 10, hauling in six of 12 targets for 78 yards and a touchdown in the 27-20 loss to the New York Jets. Despite the return of Cedric Tillman and the Brown struggles in the passing game, Jeudy finally showcased his talent for the first time in the 2025 season. In PPR formats, Jeudy currently ranks as the WR64, averaging 7.5 fantasy points per game. Rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel is averaging a league-low 5.0 yards per attempt this season, relying heavily on the tight ends in the passing game. Without a quarterback change, Jeudy will continue to be a volatile option in fantasy moving forward.

Tez Johnson a Must-Add in All Fantasy Leagues
Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Tez Johnson hauled in four of five targets for 42 yards and two touchdowns in the team's 28-23 loss to the New England Patriots. Since Mike Evans (collarbone) went down, Johnson has emerged as a key piece of the Buccaneers' passing attack, recording at least 40 yards in every game since the injury, and scoring four touchdowns over his last four contests. The rookie from Oregon is averaging 14.2 fantasy points per game since Week 6, ranking 20th among wide receivers during that stretch. With Evans, Chris Godwin, and Jalen McMillan all sidelined, Johnson should remain a featured target for Baker Mayfield moving forward.

Cade Otton Emerging as High-Volume Option
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton hauled in nine of 12 targets for 82 yards in Sunday's 28-23 loss to the New England Patriots. Otton set a new career high in targets and tied his career best with nine receptions. With multiple injuries to Tampa Bay's receiving corps, the fourth-year tight end has stepped into a key role. Chris Godwin (fibula) isn't expected back until late November, and Mike Evans (collarbone) remains sidelined, leaving Otton as one of Baker Mayfield's top options alongside Emeka Egbuka. The Buccaneers face the Buffalo Bills in Week 12, a matchup that could feature plenty of scoring opportunities for both teams. With injuries and bye weeks thinning out the tight end options, Otton deserves strong fantasy consideration this week.

Alec Pierce Scores First Touchdown of 2025 in Colts Overtime Win
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce hauled in four of seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in the team's 31-25 overtime victory over the Atlanta Falcons. Pierce continued to build strong chemistry with quarterback Daniel Jones, logging a season-high 94.8% snap share and finding the end zone for the first time in 2025. Over his last four games, Pierce has averaged an impressive 91.5 receiving yards per game, which leads the NFL since Week 7. As the Colts head into their bye week, the emerging deep threat will look to continue his breakout campaign when they face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 12.

Parker Washington a Must-Add Off the Waiver Wire
Jacksonville Jaguars second-year wide receiver Parker Washington scored two touchdowns on Sunday in the Jaguars' 36-29 loss to the Houston Texans. One of them came early in the first quarter, a seven-yard strike from quarterback Trevor Lawrence, which put the Jaguars up 10-0. The second came in the second quarter, a 73-yard punt return that put the Jaguars up 17-0. Additionally, Washington led the Jaguars in targets with seven; the next closest was running back Travis Etienne Jr. with three. Although Washington led the team in targets, he was only able to haul in three of them for 33 yards to go with his two touchdowns. For most of the afternoon, he was shadowed by Derek Stingley Jr., who is considered to be one of the best cornerbacks in the game. As long as Travis Hunter (knee) and Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) continue to miss time, Washington will remain in the low-end WR2 conversation heading into Week 11, when the Jaguars take on the Los Angeles Chargers.

Trey Benson a Must-Add Heading into Week 11
Arizona Cardinals second-year running back Trey Benson (knee) has missed the last five games with a knee injury and remains one of, if not the best, IR stashes in fantasy football. Benson became the starting running back for the Cardinals in Week 4 after James Conner (foot) was injured and was reported to miss the remainder of the 2025 campaign. Benson had shown flashes of success in his limited snap share with Conner, averaging 5.52 yards per carry through three games on 21 carries. Bam Knight and Emari Demercado are getting the bulk of the workload right now, but neither has done enough to run away with the job. Benson, upon his return, will immediately provide fantasy managers who held on with RB2 value.

Chris Rodriguez Jr. Finds Pay Dirt, Injures his Shoulder in Week 10
Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. (shoulder) exited during the second half of Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Detroit Lions. At the time of his departure, he had six carries for 16 rushing yards and a touchdown, sharing work fairly evenly with Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Jeremy McNichols. Rodriguez Jr. was named team Captain for Sunday's contest, and many reports suggested a potential shift in Commander running back ownership. Still, due to his injury, we couldn't see exactly how things would have played out. Croskey-Merritt ended the game with 11 carries for 30 yards (2.7 YPC), playing most of the second half, while McNichols finished with five carries for 25 yards. The Commanders head to Spain for their Week 11 tilt with the Miami Dolphins, who are bottom-10 against opposing running backs on the season, making Rodriguez Jr. a desperate flex-worthy start, if healthy next week.

Daron Payne Suspended One Game For Unsportsmanlike Conduct
NFL Insider Ian Rapoport reported that the Washington Commanders defensive lineman, Daron Payne, has been suspended one game for an act of unsportsmanlike conduct against the Detroit Lions on Sunday. Payne was disqualified for punching Amon-Ra St. Brown after an altercation following Jahmyr Gibbs' running in a 13-yard score in the second quarter. Payne turned and threw a right hook at St. Brown, connecting square in the helmet. It's unclear what led to that incident or what was said between the two players beforehand, but that was the end of it as Payne was ejected and the Commanders went down 22-3 before losing 44-22. The next game for the Commanders is in Week 11, where they travel to Santiago Bernabéu Stadium in Spain to take on the Miami Dolphins. The Commanders' defense is currently ranked near the bottom of the NFL, with recent reports placing them 29th in points allowed and 30th in yards allowed per game. Losing a veteran in Payne will not help; therefore, most Dolphins starters will be must-start plays in Week 11, such as Jaylen Waddle and De'Von Achane; meanwhile, players like Tua Tagovailoa and Malik Washington will be in the streamer conversation.

Oronde Gadsden Scheduled to Undergo an MRI Monday
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Monday morning that Los Angeles Chargers tight end Oronde Gadsden (knee) is scheduled to undergo an MRI today for the knee injury that he suffered on Sunday Night Football. Gadsden exited the game in the third quarter and was seen limping to the locker room to be evaluated. At the time of his injury, the 22-year-old rookie had caught three of his six targets for only 13 yards. Although it was a slow night for him, the rookie out of Syracuse had cemented himself as a top-5 player at the tight end position in fantasy football. On the season, he has caught 35 of his 44 targets for 466 yards and two touchdowns. More impressively, he has only been the starter since Week 6, so most of that production has come in the last five weeks. In his absence, Tucker Fisk and Tyler Conklin picked up the slack because Will Dissly (coach's decision) was inactive.

Kyle Williams Breaks Off 72-Yard Touchdown For First Career Score in Week 10 Win
New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams made one of the highlight plays of the week with a 72-yard catch and run touchdown, marking his first career score in a 28-23 Week 10 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Williams had only one reception on two targets, but the rookie made it count as he showed off his blazing speed on the long score. The rookie third-rounder hit a max speed of 21.78 mph on the play, which was the seventh fastest top speed by any player in the NFL this season, per Next Gen Stats. It was the highest mark by a Patriot all season until fellow rookie TreVeyon Henderson one-upped him, hitting 22.01 mph on his 55-yard touchdown run. Williams was expected to see more action with Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) out, but he had just a 58% route share in the game. It will be interesting to see how the wide receiver rotation shakes out when Boutte returns, but Williams flashed his big-play ability and certainly warrants more snaps going forward.

Parker Washington Scores Two Touchdowns in Week 10 Loss
Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington caught three of his seven targets for 33 yards and a touchdown, added two carries for minus-four yards, and returned a punt 73 yards for another touchdown in a 36-29 loss in Week 10 to the Houston Texans. Washington was Jacksonville's top target earner for the second straight week, with top wideouts Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) and Travis Hunter (knee) both sidelined. The 23-year-old led the Jaguars in routes and slot rate in Week 10, with recent trade acquisition Jakobi Meyers mostly aligning out wide and only running 50% routes. Washington had an impressive contested touchdown grab in the corner of the end zone during the first quarter, then added an electric punt return for a touchdown in the second quarter to reward fantasy managers who put their faith in him. Washington will project as a strong flex option again in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Jerry Jeudy Has Best Game of the Season, Scores First Touchdown in Week 10 Loss
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught six of his 12 targets for 78 yards and his first touchdown of the season in a 27-20 loss to the New York Jets. Jeudy set season highs in every receiving category except for targets and logged his first double-digit PPR performance since Week 1. The 26-year-old has mightily struggled with drops this season while navigating a tough offensive environment with the Browns. Entering Week 10, his eight drops ranked second most among all pass catchers, and his 40.7% catch rate was the third lowest out of 186 players, per Pro Football Reference. The veteran wideout took advantage of a Jets defense that just traded away top cornerback Sauce Gardner and will look to build on the strong performance in Week 11 versus the Baltimore Ravens.

Jaylen Waddle Continues To Excel as Dolphins WR1 in Week 10 Win Over Bills
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle led the team in receiving again in their Week 10 upset win over the Buffalo Bills, catching five of his seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown. Waddle had an outstanding 38-yard touchdown catch where he also drew a pass interference penalty in the game, and continues to assert himself as one of the best wide receivers in the league. Outside of a monsoon game in Cleveland in Week 7, where Waddle caught only one of four targets for 15 yards, the 26-year-old has posted at least 80 receiving yards in every game since Tyreek Hill (knee) went down in Week 4. Waddle has recorded 29 receptions for 485 yards and three touchdowns on 43 targets in that span, averaging 16 PPR points per game. Waddle projects for another strong fantasy day in Week 11 when the Dolphins travel to Madrid to face a putrid Washington Commanders defense.
