Seattle Seahawks wide receiver
Jaxon Smith-Njigba caught eight of his nine targets for 129 yards in Sunday night's 38-14 win over the Washington Commanders. Smith-Njigba continues his historic season with his fourth straight game recording at least 120 receiving yards. The 23-year-old superstar joined Hall of Famer Isaac Bruce as the only players under age 25 with 900 or more receiving yards in the first eight games of a season. His connection with quarterback
Sam Darnold has been lethal and has helped lead the Seattle Seahawks to a 6-2 record. Seattle's passing volume is not high, but JSN has consolidated all of the targets and has fully ascended to superstar status. Smith-Njigba will remain a top-three fantasy option in Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver
Tory Horton hauled in all four of his targets for 48 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday night's blowout win against the Washington Commanders. Horton scored the first two touchdowns of the night for Seattle, giving him five now on the season and tying Tampa Bay Buccaneers' rookie wideout
Emeka Egbuka for the most among first-year receivers. The rookie out of Colorado State took advantage of his opportunities with multiple other Seattle wide receivers sidelined for this matchup against Washington's poor defense. Horton looks like a legitimate flex option moving forward if
Cooper Kupp (heel, hamstring) were to miss any more time.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback
Sam Darnold torched the Washington Commanders' defense in a 38-14 blowout win on Sunday night, completing 21 of 24 pass attempts for 330 yards, four touchdowns, and one interception. Darnold was on fire to start the game, posting a perfect 158.3 passer rating while completing all 16 passes and throwing four touchdowns in the first half. His receivers were running open all night, and he consistently delivered on time and on target. The 28-year-old has continued to excel in his first season in Seattle under offensive coordinator Klint Kubiak. Darnold's connection with superstar wideout
Jaxon Smith-Njigba has been the most potent in the league, adding another 129 yards on eight catches on Sunday night against Washington. Darnold will head back home for a divisional matchup against the Cardinals in Week 10.

Washington Commanders quarterback
Jayden Daniels (arm) suffered a gruesome left-arm injury in the fourth quarter of the Sunday Night Football game against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 9 and walked off the field with his arm in a brace, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. At the very least, Daniels is going to miss multiple weeks, but just based on how bad it looked, we'd be surprised if he plays again in 2025. Veteran
Marcus Mariota entered the game to replace Daniels and will be in line to start under center for the Commanders for the foreseeable future. Before the unfortunate injury, Daniels went 16-for-22 passing for 153 yards, no touchdowns, and one interception while adding 10 carries for 51 yards on the ground and a touchdown. Check back for updates on Daniels' status on Sunday night and Monday morning after he undergoes testing on his left (non-throwing) arm.
UPDATE: Head coach Dan Quinn confirmed that Daniels' injury is to his left elbow.--Keith HernandezSource: NFL Network - Tom Pelissero

Buffalo Bills defensive end Michael Hoecht (Achilles) suffered a season-ending torn Achilles in Sunday's 28-21 win over the visiting Kansas City Chiefs in Week 9, according to head coach Sean McDermott. Hoecht will end up playing in just two games in 2025 in his first year with the team after missing the first six games of the year while on suspension for violating the league's performance-enhancing drug policy. In his two games played for the Bills, the 28-year-old pass-rusher had five tackles, two sacks, and a forced fumble. It's a big blow to Buffalo's pass rush the rest of the way, and the Bills will be looking for more contributions from A.J. Epenesa and Javon Solomon next to starting pass-rushers Joey Bosa and Greg Rousseau.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver
Rashee Rice led the team in receiving on Sunday and also found the end zone for the third straight game, this time on the ground. In KC's 28-21 loss on the road to the Buffalo Bills in Week 9, Rice led the team in catches (four), targets (seven), and receiving yards (80) while also carrying the ball twice for six yards and his first rushing touchdown of the year. The 25-year-old continues to be the Chiefs' top offensive weapon despite making his season debut on Oct. 19 in the blowout win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Rice has now scored in all three of his games and has at least 80 receiving yards in two of his three games. In his season debut against the Raiders, the former second-rounder had only 42 receiving yards but found the end zone twice. Rice and the Chiefs will now head into their bye before a big divisional clash in Week 11 versus the Denver Broncos.

Los Angeles Rams running back
Kyren Williams wasn't involved in the passing game at all on Sunday, but he was efficient on the ground in the team's 34-10 victory over the visiting New Orleans Saints in Week 9. Williams had some nice volume in this one, handling a season-high 25 carries for a season-high 113 rushing yards and his third rushing touchdown of the year. It was the 25-year-old's first 100-yard rushing game in 2025. Williams hasn't been all that explosive on the ground for the Rams this year, but it was nice to finally see him top the century mark in a plus matchup with a positive game script all day. The former fifth-rounder has been more of an RB2 for fantasy managers this year in a Rams offense that prefers to air it out with the arm of quarterback
Matthew Stafford. Still, Williams should be considered a must-start in a big Week 10 divisional contest next Sunday versus a banged-up San Francisco 49ers defense.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie first-round running back
Ashton Jeanty had another mediocre performance on the ground in the team's Week 9 overtime loss to the visiting Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, but he salvaged his day for fantasy managers by catching all five of his targets for 47 yards and a touchdown through the air. On the ground, Jeanty handled a team-high 13 carries for 42 yards (3.2 yards per carry). The 21-year-old was able to bounce back coming out of the bye week after he had a season-low six carries for 21 yards and only one catch for 13 yards in the Week 7 blowout loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. It's been slow going for Jeanty the last three games behind a shaky Raiders offensive line, and things won't get any easier on a short week on Thursday Night Football against a stout Denver Broncos defense in Week 10. Through his first eight NFL games, Jeanty has three rushing scores and three receiving touchdowns.

Green Bay Packers running back
Josh Jacobs has been playing through a calf injury in recent weeks, but he looked fully healthy in the Week 9 loss to the Carolina Panthers on Sunday at Lambeau Field. Jacobs led the backfield with 17 carries for 87 yards (5.1 yards per tote) and a touchdown, scoring for the fifth straight week and for the 10th time on the ground in eight games. Green Bay's loss to the Cleveland Browns back on Sept. 21 was the only time in 2025 so far in which Jacobs has not scored a rushing TD. In the last five games, the veteran back has 354 rushing yards and nine rushing scores. He also caught four of his five targets in the passing game for 13 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to Carolina. Jacobs has gone over 100 scrimmage yards in three straight games. Despite a tough upcoming matchup in Week 10 against the Philadelphia Eagles, Jacobs will remain a must-start RB in fantasy football.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback
J.J. McCarthy returned in Week 9 from an ankle injury that had sidelined him for five games and led his team to a massive victory on the road over the division rival Detroit Lions. McCarthy completed 14 of 25 pass attempts for 143 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception, adding 12 yards and a touchdown on nine rush attempts. While it was not the most efficient day for McCarthy from a yardage perspective, the 22-year-old showed flashes of his ability to pilot a productive NFL offense. McCarthy's ability to make plays with his legs also bodes well for his fantasy upside. The Vikings will host the resurgent Baltimore Ravens in Week 10.

Detroit Lions quarterback
Jared Goff did not have his cleanest game in Week 9, taking five sacks in his team's 27-24 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Still, Goff managed to post solid production from a fantasy perspective, completing 25 of 37 pass attempts for 284 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. The 31-year-old has now thrown for 1,915 yards, 17 touchdowns, and three interceptions across eight starts in 2025. Unfortunately for Goff, the Lions' pass protection issues may continue going forward as they lost starting left guard Christian Mahogany (leg) to a serious-looking leg injury in Week 9. Still, Goff has a favorable matchup on paper in Week 10 when the Lions travel to Washington to face the Commanders.

New England Patriots wide receiver
DeMario Douglas had his best game of the season in his team's 24-23 Week 9 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Douglas recorded four catches for a team-best 100 receiving yards and a touchdown on six targets. Douglas was having a quiet season before this breakout game, as he had recorded 14 catches for 162 yards and two scores heading into Week 9. However, there's some reason to believe that this could be more than just a one-off performance. The Patriots lost wide receiver
Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) to a hamstring injury in Week 9. While it's unclear how much (if any) time Boutte will miss, his absence would push Douglas up the target pecking order in New England. The Patriots will travel to Tampa Bay to take on the Buccaneers in Week 10.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver
Davante Adams picked up right where he left off before the team's Week 8 bye in Week 9. Adams recorded five catches for 60 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets in the Rams' 34-10 blowout win over the New Orleans Saints. Adams has now hauled in five touchdown grabs over his last two games played. The 32-year-old is in the midst of an excellent first season in Los Angeles with 36 catches for 391 yards and eight touchdowns on 70 targets. Additionally, star Rams wide receiver
Puka Nacua (ribs) exited Week 9 early due to a rib injury. Head coach Sean McVay said following the game that Nacua could have returned had the score been closer. Still, Adams would obviously stand to benefit from a target volume standpoint if Nacua were to miss time. Los Angeles will travel to San Francisco to take on the 49ers in Week 10.

Buffalo Bills tight end
Dalton Kincaid had a monster game in his team's 28-21 Week 9 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs, recording six catches for 101 yards and a touchdown on six targets. The 26-year-old has now recorded 27 receptions for 411 yards and four scores on 33 targets across seven games played in 2025. Kincaid missed Buffalo's Week 6 loss due to an oblique injury and was eased back into the lineup in the team's blowout Week 8 win, their first game back from their bye week. He appeared to be back to full health in Week 9, which is a great sign for both fantasy managers and the Bills. Kincaid profiles as a clear fantasy starter at the tight end position heading into a favorable Week 10 matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback
Trevor Lawrence did not have his best day as a passer in his team's 30-29 overtime Week 9 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, completing 23 of 34 pass attempts for 220 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. However, Lawrence saved his fantasy production by logging 24 yards and two touchdowns on nine rush attempts. Across eight starts this season, the 26-year-old has now thrown for 1,840 yards, nine touchdowns, and six picks. His rushing ability may currently be the most consistent part of his game, as he's run for 137 yards and four touchdowns on 39 attempts. Lawrence and the Jaguars have a very difficult matchup in Week 10 when they travel to Houston to take on the Texans.
