Rashid Shaheed Could Play Extensively in Seahawks Debut
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed "might need to play extensively" in Week 10 against the Arizona Cardinals, according to Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. Henderson notes that Shaheed, who was acquired from the New Orleans Saints earlier this week, may be tasked with handling a large workload as the Seahawks overcome injuries to receivers Cooper Kupp (heel, hamstring), Jake Bobo (calf), Dareke Young (hip), and Tory Horton (groin/shin) is doubtful. Of that group, Kupp is the only one with a real chance to play. Shaheed and Kupp both figure to get involved alongside alpha receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Shaheed is more of a big-play threat while Kupp offers a reliable presence in the short passing game. The 27-year-old is a low-floor, high-ceiling WR3 heading into a matchup against a Cardinals defense that most recently allowed Dallas' top two receivers to combine for 13 catches and 164 yards.

Jonnu Smith Can't Be Trusted Against Chargers
Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jonnu Smith has not eclipsed 30 receiving yards in any contest this season and will face a tough test against the Los Angeles Chargers this week. The Chargers' defense has been solid across the board, limiting opposing tight ends to the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game. On the bright side, Smith did earn five targets last week, tied for the second-most on the team. He could be equally or more involved in what's projected to be a close matchup on Sunday night, but it's hard to trust him with both Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington also earning opportunities. Smith checks in as the TE26 in RotoBaller's Week 10 rankings and should be avoided in most formats.

Dawson Knox Not a Starting Fantasy Option Against Miami
Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has logged 288 offensive snaps this season, the most on the team at the position. However, that hasn't exactly helped his production. In Knox's eight appearances, he's caught only nine passes (14 targets) for 118 yards. He also has only one touchdown, which occurred in the Week 6 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Knox was once a go-to option for quarterback Josh Allen, with the 28-year-old combining for 15 touchdowns in the 2021 and 2022 seasons. Unfortunately, he's regressed significantly since the start of the 2023 campaign, finding the end zone only four times. Granted, the 2019 No. 96 overall pick could have a decent fantasy showing at some point before the end of the year. Still, he's tough to trust, especially if Dalton Kincaid is on the field. With that in mind, Knox isn't worth starting in any fantasy format in Week 10 against the Miami Dolphins.

Calvin Austin III Worth Monitoring in Week 10
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III has seen six targets in each of his last two games and should stay involved against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. Austin has shown flashes of chemistry with quarterback Aaron Rodgers throughout this season and appears to be locked in as the team's WR2 behind DK Metcalf. That said, he's still difficult to trust for fantasy purposes, especially in this matchup. The Chargers have been stout against the pass, allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points per contest to opposing wideouts. Austin's utilization on Sunday night is worth monitoring, and he could be a speculative add in deeper formats, but fantasy managers should avoid starting him this week if possible.

Justice Hill Not a Practical Fantasy Option Versus Minnesota
Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill hasn't done much throughout the 2025 campaign. Although he had two touchdowns in the Week 4 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, he's been quiet overall from a production standpoint. The 27-year-old logged a season-high 35 offensive snaps in Week 6 versus the Los Angeles Rams. Yet, since the Ravens returned from their bye week, that number dropped considerably, with Hill logging only 11 offensive snaps in the Thursday night win over the Miami Dolphins in Week 9. With Baltimore looking to build on a two-game winning streak, the team is aiming for a much-needed victory over Minnesota on Sunday. The Vikings have looked good at times on the defensive side of the ball this season. However, regardless of the matchup, Hill isn't worth starting in any fantasy format. That likely won't change anytime soon, especially with Lamar Jackson and Derrick Henry getting most of the carries.

DK Metcalf A Boom-or-Bust WR2 Against Chargers
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf is coming off his worst showing of the season and will hope to bounce back against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. Unfortunately for Metcalf, Los Angeles has been stingy against the pass, allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing wideouts and the third-fewest passing yards per game. On the positive side, Metcalf has been heavily involved in scoring situations, earning over 60% of Pittsburgh's red-zone targets this year. Assuming this contest remains competitive throughout, quarterback Aaron Rodgers should look his way early and often, especially near the goal line. While Metcalf's weekly reliability has dipped, his upside keeps him in play as a low-end WR2 or strong flex option.

Dallas Goedert Aiming to Remain a Top Fantasy Tight End
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert has been a top fantasy producer. It's fair to say he's had some weak showings throughout the 2025 campaign. However, the 30-year-old has also had a few standout performances, including a two-touchdown effort in the Week 8 NFC East clash with the New York Giants, marking his second multi-score game of the year. Goedert has 30 catches and 289 receiving yards this season, which isn't great compared to other tight ends around the National Football League. On the other hand, he's made up for it by finding the end zone seven times, more than anyone else at the position. With the Eagles sitting among the top teams in the NFC, Philadelphia will look to extend its winning streak to three games by handling Green Bay on Monday night. The Packers have had trouble defending opposing tight ends this season. Still, Goedert's designation as a must-start fantasy option wouldn't have changed even if he had a challenging matchup on the horizon. That will remain the case until he shows signs of regression moving ahead.

Jaylen Warren A Borderline Must-Start in Week 10
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is fresh off a two-touchdown performance and will look to stay hot against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. While the Chargers rank middle-of-the-pack against fantasy running backs, they have allowed the sixth-most yards per carry and fifth-most rushing touchdowns to the position. Los Angeles has been much tougher through the air than on the ground, so Pittsburgh may lean on Warren and the running game to keep pace on the road. Kenneth Gainwell and Kaleb Johnson will mix in for a few touches, but Warren's role as the Steelers' RB1 remains secure. Fantasy managers can confidently start him as a top-15 play on Sunday night.

Aaron Rodgers Faces Tough Test Against Chargers
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been steady this season, ranking fourth among all signal-callers in passing touchdowns heading into a Week 10 away matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers surrender the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks and could pose Rodgers' toughest challenge yet. On the other side, however, Pittsburgh's defense has been inconsistent, allowing over 30 points in half of its games. If Los Angeles can keep rolling offensively, Rodgers should see enough passing volume to deliver for fantasy purposes. He's not the safest streaming option this week, but he can be started in a pinch and viewed as a low-end QB2 on Sunday night.

Eagles D/ST Facing a Huge Test Against Green Bay
The Philadelphia Eagles defense/special teams unit has had some strong performances recently, allowing 20 or fewer points in three of their last four games. They also set their season-high for sacks in a game in their latest contest, getting to the QB five times against the New York Giants. However, this Monday, Philadelphia faces one of its toughest challenges of the season as they travel to Green Bay. The Packers are averaging the eighth-most yards per game (360.4) on offense this year and the 11th-most points per game (25.8). They are also tied for the second-fewest amount of giveaways, turning the ball over just five times through eight games. In what should be an intense battle between two teams near the top of the conference, it's tough to bet on Philly's defense putting the clamps on. There are better options for starting defenses in Week 10.

Jake Elliott Misses Another Kick, Not Trustworthy Against Packers
Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott has now missed field goal attempts in back-to-back games, going 1-for-2 in Week 8 against the New York Giants. At first, the problem with Elliott was his lack of kicking opportunities despite his consistent accuracy. Now, the problem is both his opportunities and his accuracy. While he did hit five extra points to pick up the slack, managers can't depend on Philly scoring five touchdowns every week. Elliott is best left off of rosters heading into his Week 10 game against the Green Bay Packers.

Dallas Goedert May Need to Find End Zone to Be Start-Worthy
Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert had his second two-touchdown game of the season in his last performance-the same performance that saw him targeted just three times. Goedert has had many touchdown-dependent showings like this throughout the year-several outings where, had he not scored, he would have mustered just a few fantasy points on less than five catches. But on the other hand, he has scored six red zone receiving touchdowns this season, which is double the amount of everyone else on his team combined. On Monday he faces a Packers defense allowing the seventh-most fantasy points to tight ends. Managers will likely have to pray that Goedert finds pay dirt once (or twice) again this week, but those prayers have been answered so many times already. Consider him a low-end TE1 for Week 10.

Darius Cooper Not on Stat Sheet Even with Increased Role
Philadelphia Eagles rookie wide receiver Darius Cooper saw his highest usage of his career so far and his first playing time since Week 3 in Philly's last game against the Giants. When Philly hosted New York, Cooper played 26 snaps, being on the field for 44.1% of offensive plays. His previous highest was 12 snaps on 20% of plays back in Week 2. Cooper was also close to having the first target of his career on a third quarter pass, but the play was negated by a pass interference, stopping him from recording his first stat. Even with A.J. Brown missing the contest, Cooper was unable to get involved. He's still unworthy of a bench spot on fantasy teams.

DeVonta Smith Trying to Maintain Consistency in Week 10
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith has tallied at least nine targets and over 80 receiving yards in three of his last four games as he heads into Monday Night Football versus the Packers this week. Smith has actually garnered more receiving yards and receptions than fellow star WR A.J. Brown this season, even without counting the one game Smith played in that Brown missed. However, to illustrate his boom-or-bust nature, taking away his two best outings this season plummets Smith's yards per game from 73.5 to 48.5. Green Bay is in the middle of the pack, giving up the 16th-most fantasy points to WRs this year, so it comes down to a matter of what version of DeVonta Smith managers will see in Week 10. His recent play has been enough to warrant him a WR2 spot for now.

A.J. Brown Worth Taking the Gamble on in Tough Matchup
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) was a full participant at practice on Friday and is expected to play against Green Bay. Brown was sidelined for one game before the team's bye, but just before that he had his best performance of the season with 121 receiving yards and two touchdowns against the Vikings. On Monday, he'll return to action at Lambeau Field to challenge a Packers defense that has only allowed one 100-yard game to receivers this year (George Pickens in Week 4). While Brown hasn't necessarily lived up to the hype many had for him before the season, he needs to be in lineups given his last couple of showings. Temper expectations, but play him as a solid WR2 this week.
