Buffalo Bills running back
Ray Davis could be in line for a significant workload in Week 10. The second-year back has struggled to produce this season, totaling just 64 scrimmage yards on 25 touches across eight games. However, with
James Cook (foot/ankle) not practicing on Wednesday, Davis could be in a position to start and have a big role in Week 10. In the one game Cook missed in 2024, Davis played 63% of the snaps and handled 23 touches for 152 yards. Fantasy managers should monitor Buffalo's practice reports closely, as the starting running back in this offense would be a clear must-start against a struggling Miami Dolphins defense.

Newly acquired cornerback Sauce Gardner (concussion) has cleared protocol and will make his Colts debut in Week 10. Gardner was surprisingly traded from the Jets to the Colts just months after signing a four-year, $120 million extension. With Charvarius Ward (concussion) on injured reserve, Indianapolis will lean on Gardner to shadow Falcons wide receiver
Drake London, who is coming off a big performance in Week 9. The move underscores the Colts' aggressive, win-now mindset, and Gardner's debut will be one of the most talked-about storylines of the week.

At the trade deadline, the Kansas City Chiefs made an attempt to acquire New York Jets running back
Breece Hall. Hall had been the subject of trade rumors and reportedly expressed interest in a change of scenery. The Jets were believed to be seeking a third-round pick, a steep price for a running back who is not under contract beyond the 2025 season. Kansas City ultimately chose not to make the move, signaling confidence in their current backfield of
Isiah Pacheco,
Kareem Hunt, and
Brashard Smith. It sets up a fascinating offseason for Hall and the Jets, but whether the Chiefs will regret not landing the rising star remains to be seen.

Buffalo Bills running back
Ty Johnson could see increased usage in Week 10. Through eight games, he has logged 17 carries for 72 yards and a touchdown, along with four receptions for 31 yards. With
James Cook (foot/ankle) not practicing, Johnson may be in line for a larger workload. Johnson has outsnapped
Ray Davis this season, but in the one game Cook missed last year, Davis played 63% of the snaps compared to Johnson's 35%. Cook's status will dictate how the backfield shakes out, so monitor practice reports closely. If Cook sits, both Johnson and Davis would see expanded roles against a vulnerable Miami defense.

Las Vegas Raiders running back
Raheem Mostert has worked strictly as a backup this season. Through five games, he has logged 16 carries for 80 yards and added three receptions for 27 yards. With rookie
Ashton Jeanty leading the backfield, Mostert has been limited to just a 24% snap share. The matchup doesn't help in Week 10, as Denver is allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to running backs. Mostert holds value only as Jeanty's handcuff and on kick returns, but he should remain on waivers in all fantasy formats for now.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver
Dont'e Thornton Jr. did not play a snap in Week 9's loss to Jacksonville. After showing promise early in the season, he hasn't logged a catch since Week 3. With
Jakobi Meyers now traded to the Jaguars, Thornton could see his role expand. In the one game Meyers missed this season, Thornton played a season-high 83% of the snaps. However, the recent addition of
Tyler Lockett may cap his overall opportunity. With Denver allowing the fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, expectations should remain low. Thornton may see the field more in Week 10, but he should stay off fantasy rosters for now.

Las Vegas Raiders rookie wide receiver
Jack Bech did not play a snap in Week 9's loss to Jacksonville. Despite being selected 58th overall out of TCU, he has just seven receptions for 73 yards through eight games. With
Jakobi Meyers traded to Jacksonville, Bech is positioned to see increased snaps moving forward. In the one game Meyers missed this season, Bech logged a season-high 63% snap share. That increased opportunity may not translate into fantasy value this week. Denver has allowed the fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, making this a difficult matchup to expect meaningful production. Bech is worth monitoring on Thursday night, but he should remain on waivers in all formats for now.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end
Michael Mayer lost his starting role in Week 9 with the return of
Brock Bowers, but he remained involved in the offense. Despite operating as the TE2, Mayer caught three of seven targets for 26 yards in the 30-29 loss to Jacksonville. Notably, he still played 83% of the snaps as Las Vegas used 12 personnel (two-tight-end sets) on 58.3% of their plays, which is their highest rate this season. With
Jakobi Meyers now in Jacksonville, the Raiders are likely to continue leaning on heavier formations, which should keep Mayer on the field. However, the matchup is difficult this week. Denver has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to tight ends, but their strong pass rush could force Mayer into increased blocking duties rather than receiving work. Mayer should remain on fantasy benches in Week 10.

The Dallas Cowboys announced on Thursday that second-year defensive lineman Marshawn Kneeland passed away on Thursday morning. A second-year player from Western Michigan, Kneeland was just 24 years old. The team did not announce a cause of death. Kneeland appeared in 18 games during the past two seasons, registering 26 tackles and a sack. In a statement, the team said, "Marshawn was a beloved teammate and member of our organization. Our thoughts and prayers regarding Marshawn are with his girlfriend Catalina and his family."

Despite his team's struggles, Las Vegas Raiders right end
Brock Bowers is a must-start tight end in a Week 10 matchup against the Denver Broncos. The second-year superstar from Georgia returned from a knee injury with a three-touchdown, week-winning performance last time out, and there's no reason to stray from him against Denver. The Broncos may be one of the best overall defenses in the league, but they've been only middle of the pack against fantasy tight ends. Further, Vegas shipped out top wide receiver
Jakobi Meyers this week, opening the door for Bowers to vacuum even more targets during the remainder of the season. Ranked as RotoBaller's No. 2 overall tight end this week, Bowers should be starting in every format.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver
Tre Tucker is perhaps this week's most unpredictable fantasy player when his team takes on the Denver Broncos on Thursday Night Football. The Raiders granted receiver
Jakobi Meyers' trade request this week by shipping the veteran to Jacksonville, which figures to make Tucker the team's No. 2 option behind tight end
Brock Bowers. His first opportunity, however, comes against a Broncos defense that has allowed the second-fewest points to fantasy wide receivers. Given the circumstances, managers should consider Tucker to be a risky WR3/flex option. While Tucker could be in line for more targets without Meyers, he's still not the offense's top option, he's playing on a bad team, and he's up against one of the very best secondaries in the league this week.

Las Vegas Raiders running back
Ashton Jeanty should be viewed as a quality RB2 option when the Raiders take on a quality Denver Broncos defense on Thursday. The rookie from Boise State has been something of a letdown, given where he was taken in most preseason fantasy drafts, but he has such control over the Vegas backfield that he still enters Week 10 as the No. 13 overall fantasy running back. Jeanty has eclipsed 80 yards only once in eight games, a 138-yard showing against the Chicago Bears in Week 4, though his 25 targets have made him a regular part of the team's passing game and given him additional fantasy value. At 2-6, the Raiders look headed for yet another lost season, but a running back playing more than 70% of his team's offensive snaps should be in fantasy lineups.

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback
Geno Smith is a low-end Superflex option with his team playing an excellent Denver Broncos defense on Thursday. The veteran was a superb fantasy quarterback after his resurgence with Seattle in 2022, but this season had been mostly diminishing returns until a four-touchdown outburst last week against Jacksonville. Even after his best game, Smith has an unsightly 1:1 touchdown-to-interception ratio. He has thrown 11 interceptions and 11 touchdowns through eight games, during which he's thrown for an average of just under 213 yards. Facing a Denver defense that ranks among the league's best against fantasy quarterbacks, Smith can be a bye-week fill-in if needed, but managers should favor their other options, if possible.

Denver Broncos wide receiver
Pat Bryant should be left out of lineups in most formats when his team takes on the Las Vegas Raiders in the Thursday Night Football game for Week 10. The rookie from Illinois has earned more playing time as the season has progressed, appearing in more than half of Denver's offensive snaps five weeks in a row, but he has yet to catch more than two passes in a game. He scored his first touchdown in Week 8 against Dallas and has been the Broncos' preferred replacement with
Marvin Mims (concussion) out, though
Courtland Sutton and
Troy Franklin have continued as quarterback
Bo Nix's most-targeted options. Bryant has a solid matchup against a bad Vegas defense, but he'll be touchdown-dependent in a secondary role.

Los Angeles Chargers tight end
Oronde Gadsden has emerged as one of
Justin Herbert's go-to targets in the pass game over the past four weeks. Gadsden leads the Chargers with 377 receiving yards since he became a full-time player in Week 6 and ranks third on the team in targets per game (6.5) behind
Keenan Allen (7.8) and
Ladd McConkey (9.8). The 22-year-old has showcased the ability to earn targets as a rookie in a crowded Chargers pass-catching group, as well as strong after-the-catch ability. For teams with a strong tight end already in place, Gadsden is worth starting as a flex given how impressive he's been. The rookie tight end is ranked as RotoBaller's TE4 for Week 10 on Sunday night football against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
