New York Jets wide receiver
John Metchie III was acquired from the Philadelphia Eagles the week before the NFL trade deadline. Metchie didn't earn significant playing time in Philadelphia, totaling just 31 offensive snaps and recording four catches (four targets) for 18 yards. The 25-year-old was used primarily on special teams, but he'll have the chance to emerge as a receiver on a Jets team that has been searching for options outside of star wideout
Garrett Wilson, who will return in Week 10 from his multi-game absence due to a knee injury. The Jets also acquired former second-round pick
Adonai Mitchell from the Indianapolis Colts in the Sauce Gardner trade, opening the door for both unproven wideouts to see significant playing time. It will be interesting to see how involved Metchie is in the Jets' Week 10 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Metchie is worth monitoring as a potential fantasy riser for now.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Michael Pittman Jr. (glute) practiced fully on Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday's session with a glute injury. He is listed without an injury designation and should be ready to roll heading into a Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin, Germany. Pittman is enjoying a bounce-back season for the Colts, leading the team with 52 catches for 561 yards and six touchdowns in nine games. He will look to keep it going against an Atlanta secondary that is allowing the 26th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers in 2025. The tough matchup isn't ideal but Pittman and the Colts offense have been too good to downgrade in fantasy. He settles in as a low-end WR1/high-end WR2 in Week 10 and should be started in all lineups.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Alec Pierce is coming off his best game of the season, catching six of 13 targets for 115 yards in a 27-20 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Pierce has been a big-play machine in 2025, averaging 20.9 yards per catch, although he surprisingly is still looking for his first touchdown of the season. He will look to find the end zone in a Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin, Germany. The Falcons have done a good job limiting opposing receivers this season, allowing just the 26th-most fantasy points per game to the position thus far. That being said, the Colts have been explosive on offense and should be able to move the ball on Sunday. Fantasy gamers can treat Pierce as a boom/bust flex option in Week 10.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback
Lamar Jackson returned from a three-game absence and picked apart the Miami Dolphins for four touchdowns through the air with a 78.3 completion percentage. He'll have a tougher task ahead of him in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. They're around the middle of the pack in terms of fantasy points allowed to opposing QBs, with an average of 16.62 per game. Over the last three weeks, however, the Vikings have given up 19 or more fantasy points in each game. Jackson is already a must-start, and should continue to roll while the offense is the healthiest it's been all season.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver
Ryan Flournoy took advantage of his opportunities earlier in the season with
CeeDee Lamb missing three weeks due to an ankle injury. Flournoy had a career day in Week 5 against the Jets, catching six of his nine targets for 114 yards. The 26-year-old has since slid back into a rotational role with Lamb back healthy, but he's still finding ways to make an impact. Flournoy caught his first career touchdown in Dallas' Week 9 loss to the Arizona Cardinals while playing 67.2% of the snaps, his most since Week 6, before Lamb returned to the lineup. Flournoy has the size and athleticism to be a part of the Cowboys ' wide receiver sets alongside Lamb and
George Pickens, and could still have some deep league fantasy value in the Cowboys' high-volume passing attack. Dallas will be on primetime again on Monday Night Football at the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 11 when they return from their bye.

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver
Josh Downs has been on a hot streak of late, scoring a touchdown in three straight games. Overall the veteran slot receiver has hauled in 35 passes for 313 yards and three scores in eight games in the explosive Indy offense while taking a backseat to
Michael Pittman Jr. and
Tyler Warren this season. Downs will look to find the end zone again in a Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin. The Falcons have been tough on opposing receivers this season, allowing the 26th-most fantasy points per game to the position. Downs will have his work cut out for him, but he can be trusted as a solid WR4/flex option for fantasy gamers heading into Week 10.

Indianapolis Colts running back
Jonathan Taylor has been one of the most dominant fantasy players in the league this season, racking up 14 all-purpose touchdowns in nine games. The Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9 were one of the few teams able to slow the elite rusher down, holding him to 45 scoreless rushing yards on 14 carries. Taylor will look to get back into the end zone in a Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin. The Falcons have shut down passing attacks but have been beatable on the ground this season, allowing the 10th-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs. That sets up Taylor for a big day as the Colts are likely to lean on the run game against Atlanta. He settles in as a top-three fantasy RB in Week 10.

Indianapolis Colts quarterback
Daniel Jones has been one of the most exciting comeback players of the year, throwing for 2,404 yards, 14 touchdowns, and six interceptions while rushing for five scores on the ground. That being said, he turned in his worst game of the season in a Week 9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, throwing one touchdown and three picks. Jones will look to bounce back against the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin, Germany in Week 10. The Falcons have been a tough challenge for quarterbacks in 2025, allowing just the 27th-most fantasy points per game to the position. That being said, Jones has been a reliable fantasy option almost every week and can be trusted as a low-end QB1 in Week 10.

The Houston Texans defense will need to continue to step up this week since the team will be without starting quarterback
C.J. Stroud as they host the Jaguars in a divisional matchup. The Texans' defense has been outstanding all season and has only allowed more than 20 points one time in eight games. They had only one sack last week against the Broncos, but did force two turnovers while giving up just 18 points in the three-point loss. The unit has 10 takeaways in its last four games and has also scored a defensive touchdown during that stretch. They rely on Will Anderson Jr. (quad) and Danielle Hunter to bring pressure off the edges, and Anderson did not get an injury designation despite being limited earlier this week in practice. They'll be chasing
Trevor Lawrence on Sunday, and the Jags have given up 21 sacks in eight games this season, including 18 in their last four games. The Jags rank in the middle of the pack for a DST matchup, but the Texans have been good enough to be a top-10 option in almost every matchup. This week, RotoBaller has Houston ranked as the No. 7 DST, so they should be started in most leagues.

Houston Texans tight end
Dalton Schultz has been a solid PPR producer this season, and his high volume of targets on short passes gives him a high floor again this week against the Jaguars. The Jaguars have given up the second-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season, and Schultz has turned his 6.0 targets into 4.8 catches per game, although only for 48.1 yards per game and no touchdowns. Schultz has at least five catches in five of his last six games after hauling in six catches for 77 yards last week against Denver. He hasn't hit 100 yards or found the end zone, but his consistent involvement makes him a bye-week or injury fill-in option or a strong second tight end. He's the No. 19 TE this week in RotoBaller's rankings and is a little higher-risk with
Davis Mills replacing
C.J. Stroud, but Schultz has been consistently involved enough to still bring upside in this favorable matchup.

Houston Texans wide receiver
Jaylin Noel had a few good weeks while filling in for
Christian Kirk, but with Kirk back from his hamstring injury last week, Noel didn't have a catch and lost three yards on his only carry to finish with negative fantasy points. The rookie from Iowa State still has upside, but he's not likely to be involved enough in this week's contest to be relevant for fantasy. With
Davis Mills replacing
C.J. Stroud (concussion), the offense will likely be more conservative, and Kirk and
Nico Collins will do most of the heavy lifting at receiver since they're back from injury. This week, Noel is only the No. 81 WR in RotoBaller's rankings, leaving him well outside of a starter spot in almost all formats.

November 8, 2025
Houston Texans wide receiver
Jayden Higgins has flashed some potential in his rookie season and has 14 catches for 159 yards and two touchdowns in his eight games this year. He stepped up a little when
Nico Collins and
Christian Kirk were both injured, but he returned to a limited role with just one catch for four yards in last week's loss to the Broncos. With both veteran receivers healthy and
Davis Mills filling in for the injured
C.J. Stroud (concussion), Higgins is not likely to be heavily involved this week. He does have big-play or touchdown-dependent upside, but he is only WR76 in RotoBaller's rankings, so he can be left on the bench in almost all formats.

Houston Texans wide receiver
Christian Kirk is a high-risk play in all formats in Week 10 when his team hosts the Jaguars. Kirk just returned from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury, but he'll now be without his starting quarterback,
C.J. Stroud (concussion), for at least this week. He had four catches for 26 yards on eight targets last week against Denver and has at least three catches in each game this season, but only for 135 scoreless yards. Backup QB
Davis Mills will likely manage the game while the team relies on its excellent defense. Kirk typically gets enough receptions to deserve a little PPR attention, but with a new QB and likely a conservative game plan, he is very high-risk this week. RotoBaller has him ranked as the No. 53 WR this week, so he should be left on the bench or waiver wire in most formats.

The San Francisco 49ers' D/ST unit has been an ineffective option for most of 2025, and Week 10 will likely be more of the same. The Niners have allowed more than 21 points in five of their last six games, have just one interception this season, and have the lowest quarterback pressure rate (25.5%) and second-lowest sack rate (3.3%) in the league. Fueling the futility has been a litany of injuries. Last week, Mykel Williams (knee) tore his ACL, becoming the second lineman from San Francisco (after Nick Bosa) to do so. Fellow lineman Yetur Gross-Matos (knee) and linebacker Fred Warner (ankle) are both on injured reserve. In Week 10, linemen Alfred Collins (hip), Kalia Davis (ankle), and Keion White (groin) are questionable, as are linebackers Dee Winters (knee) and Tatum Bethune (thigh). Leave San Francisco's D/ST out of fantasy lineups in Week 10, as those who remain will be hard-pressed to slow down the Rams' offense.

San Francisco 49ers kicker
Eddy Pineiro had another productive outing in Week 9 against the New York Giants. Pineiro was good on all four of his extra point tries and hit field goals from 54 and 33 yards out in the 49ers' 34-24 win. Not one known for an overpowering leg, Pineiro is now 6-for-6 from beyond 50 yards. In Week 10, the 49ers host the Rams, who are allowing opponents 15.9 points per game and have given up the fewest touchdowns (11) in the league. That said, this game has one of the highest implied point totals of the week, which could make for a busy afternoon for Pineiro. Pineiro currently ranks third among kickers in fantasy points per game and should be started in Week 10.
