Drew Lock a QB2 in Week 10
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock (elbow, oblique) is a QB2 in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders are No. 31 against opposing quarterbacks in fantasy, but Lock is a bit too banged up to trust in fantasy right now. He was hobbling around the field in Week 9, and at one point, quarterback Jalen Milroe was warming up to replace him. Seattle figures to trust its defense and lean on an improving running game in Week 10 rather than rely on Lock's arm. Additionally, the Seahawks are facing quarterback Fernando Mendoza in his first NFL start. No matter how well or poorly Seattle's offense plays, it should not be forced to air it out at a high rate considering the Raiders could struggle to score themselves. Lock will likely be good for a stat line similar to Week 9, in which he threw for 175 yards and a touchdown, but he is not a high-end streamer this week.

Zach Charbonnet Working Into Big Role in Seattle
Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet could be a solid flex play with RB2 upside in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Charbonnet's snap share jumped from 37% in Week 8 to 57% in Week 9. He received 18 opportunities and turned that into 86 total yards. It is only a matter of time before Charbonnet finds the end zone as well. Fellow running back Jadarian Price definitely factors into this backfield, but Charbonnet looks like he could be on his way to a big workload sooner rather than later. The Raiders are No. 29 against opposing running backs in fantasy, allowing a whopping 132.1 rushing yards per game to opposing backfields. Charbonnet could be in for a big day in a game in which the Seahawks project to control the ball. Given that he already pushed for double-digit fantasy points in Week 9, Charbonnet is ripe for setting into fantasy lineups. He is ranked at No. 19, which is about where he should be heading into Week 10.

Jadarian Price an Intriguing Play in Week 10
Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price could be a low-end flex play in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Price is clearly running behind Zach Charbonnet in Seattle's backfield. However, he is the more explosive back. Price only received nine carries to Charbonnet's 16 in Week 9, but Price also turned four targets into four receptions for 54 yards. Additionally, Price's snap share fell to 36% in Week 9. While that is not encouraging, Price was still a heavy part of the game plan with 13 opportunities. The Raiders are No. 29 against opposing running backs in fantasy, leaving room for both Charbonnet and Price to feast in Week 10. It is a risky play, but you could receive a solid double-digit fantasy outing from Price this week, which would be good enough for a flex player.

Rico Dowdle Trending Up as Flex Option Against Bengals
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rico Dowdle scored his first touchdown of the season in Week 8 and will return from a bye to face the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday Night Football in Week 10. Although teammate Jaylen Warren has overshadowed him, Dowdle is averaging nearly 14 opportunities per game since returning from a toe injury that sidelined him from Weeks 3-5. He has also shown an ability to contribute in the passing game and in the red zone, boosting his fantasy value. This is a favorable matchup to target, as the Bengals allow the eighth-most rushing yards per game and the eighth-most yards per carry to opposing running backs. It wouldn't be surprising to see Dowdle get even more touches coming out of the bye, putting him on the fantasy radar as a quality flex option this week.

Bryce Young an Intriguing Start in Week 10 Versus Saints
Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young rebounded in Week 9 in a matchup against the Broncos that was tough on paper, finishing as the QB6 after posting QB18 and QB24 finishes the previous two weeks. Young finished the day with 28 completions for 276 yards and three touchdowns, bringing his passing touchdown total to 17 on the year. This performance makes Young all the more intriguing in his Week 10 matchup versus the New Orleans Saints, whose defense ranks 14th in fantasy points per game given up to opposing QBs and has allowed 255.6 passing yards per game. They have also allowed 18 or more fantasy points to QBs in three of their last four matchups. The Panthers' offensive line has been struggling with injuries, but it still enabled Young to perform well last week. The Saints' defense has a lower pressure rate than their Week 9 opponent, sitting at 19th in the league, which could once again give Young room to make plays. He is a borderline top-12 QB play this week and can be comfortably started as RotoBaller's QB13.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba Set to Feast Once Again in Week 10
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba should have a big game against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 10. Smith-Njigba was held to just seven receptions for 51 yards in Week 9. Quarterback Drew Lock (elbow, oblique) was visibly banged up last week, and he only attempted 28 passes. However, JSN still received 10 targets; he was just unable to shake loose for anything down the field. Smith-Njigba should have no issues finding space to operate against a Raiders defense allowing 160.8 receiving yards to opposing wide receivers this season. Additionally, the Raiders are allowing 28.52 points to opposing wideouts in fantasy. Every wide receiver has a down game here and there, and Smith-Njigba has proven that his floor is still a double-digit fantasy day. Play JSN as you normally would in Week 10 and look for him to have another big week.

AJ Barner Not a Fantasy Starter Despite Big Week 9
Seattle Seahawks tight end AJ Barner (finger) is not on the starting radar in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Barner scored 15 fantasy points in Week 9 because he scored two touchdowns. However, one of those touchdowns came on the ground, which is a very unpredictable stat for a tight end. Barner's receiving volume remained low, as he only logged two receptions for seven yards and a touchdown. As long as Barner's volume remains that low, he will be extremely touchdown-dependent. Given the way Seattle utilizes Barner's skillset, he is a threat to score any time they enter the red zone, but with running back Zach Charbonnet back to full health, even those opportunities could wane. It is not advisable to chase the spike week. Instead, keep an eye on Barner's usage in the coming weeks to see if he receives an uptick. Otherwise, leave Barner on waivers.

Seahawks Defense a Great Play in Rookie QB's First Start
The Seattle Seahawks D/ST should be a high-end play in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. The Raiders will roll out rookie quarterback Fernando Mendoza for his first career start. Mendoza has very limited regular-season experience to this point. He has been learning behind Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins, but now he will not even have Cousins in his ear on the sideline. Seattle's defense has been more inconsistent in 2026 than it was in 2025, but expect head coach Mike Macdonald to trust his defensive backfield to make life hard on Mendoza. During the preseason, Mendoza struggled to read the field, resulting in a couple of head-scratching interceptions. Additionally, there should be plenty of chances for sacks in this game if the defensive backfield can force Mendoza to hold onto the ball too long. This is about as tough a matchup as any for a rookie quarterback, and you can take advantage if you have this defense on your roster. This unit will be without defensive tackle Leonard Williams (stinger) again this week, but is otherwise fully healthy. They are easily a top-five option in Week 10.

Jason Myers Should Have Plenty of Kicking Opportunities in Week 10
Seattle Seahawks kicker Jason Myers is a solid option in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. After finishing as the K1 in 2025, Myers has not enjoyed the same spike weeks he did a season ago. However, Seattle has an effective offense, and he is always a threat for a handful of kicks in a game. Myers has remained accurate as well, missing just two field goals and two extra points all season. Additionally, Las Vegas leads the league in points allowed per game at 29.8. Whether he is kicking field goals or extra points, Myers should provide a lot of fantasy value. Look for Seattle to move the ball up and down the field, putting Myers in position to score fantasy points all day long. He is a quality kicking option as a result.

Rashid Shaheed a Threat for a Deep Bomb in Week 10
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Rashid Shaheed (knee) will return to the lineup in Week 10 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Shaheed had missed the previous two weeks due to the injury he suffered in Week 7. He is returning just in time for Seattle to play the No. 22 defense against wide receivers in fantasy. That is not to say that Shaheed will succeed, considering that he is WR83 on the season. However, Shaheed had carved out a bigger role in the three weeks leading up to his injury, and Seattle's staff has mentioned how his absence has affected the offense. Seattle is also looking for a wide receiver to step up alongside fellow wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Shaheed will have an opportunity to do so this week. He could shake loose for a deep bomb or two, but do not expect major fireworks from Shaheed in Week 10. We need to see consistent volume for the 28-year-old before we can trust him in fantasy. However, he is a player to monitor this week in such a juicy matchup.

Jaylen Warren Poised for Another Big Game in Week 10
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is averaging 16 fantasy points per game this season and has a great opportunity to keep rolling in Week 10 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Cincinnati is allowing the eighth-most yards per carry to opposing backs and has surrendered consecutive 100-yard rushing performances over the past two weeks. Through nine weeks, teams haven't run the ball often against the Bengals, instead opting to keep pace with their high-powered offense. However, Pittsburgh has found success winning games behind its rushing attack, led by Warren and backfield mate Rico Dowdle. When Warren faced Cincinnati in Week 3, he exploded for 176 total yards on 20 touches. Even with Dowdle getting more involved in recent weeks, Warren has remained excellent for fantasy purposes and should be viewed as a must-start RB1 in this divisional matchup.

Drew Lock Cleared to Play Sunday
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Drew Lock (elbow, oblique) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's contest on the road against the Las Vegas Raiders and will play in Week 10, according to Gregg Bell. The Seahawks took it easy on Lock for a second straight week during practice as he battles right-elbow and oblique injuries, but neither ailment is serious enough to keep him sidelined this weekend. It is good news for Seattle, who will be without starting signal-caller Sam Darnold (quadriceps) for a second straight game. Lock has done a good job of managing the game and limiting turnovers in his three games (two starts) this year in place of the injured Darnold, completing 71.1% of his pass attempts for 597 yards, five touchdowns, and no interceptions while leading the Seahawks to two wins. That does not mean that he will be a starting option in single-QB fantasy football leagues this weekend in Sin City. The Seahawks will likely lean heavily on their ground game again to take the pressure off of Lock as a passer. In what could be his final start before Darnold returns to the starting gig, Lock will be a low-end QB2 option for fantasy managers in superflex leagues in Week 10.

Aaron Rodgers on Fantasy Radar in AFC North Showdown
Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will return from a Week 9 bye to take on the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in Week 10. When Rodgers last faced Cincinnati in Week 3, he finished as a top-10 fantasy QB with 292 passing yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. Although he'll be on the road this time, the Bengals remain a relatively favorable matchup, surrendering 229 passing yards and over 28 points per game to opposing offenses at home. Unlike most AFC North battles, this contest is expected to be high-scoring, with a projected point total of around 49.5. The Steelers have won their last few games behind a strong running game, but Rodgers will likely need to throw more in this one to keep pace with Cincinnati's high-powered offense. While the 42-year-old isn't necessarily a must-start, he profiles as a high-end QB2 with plenty of streaming appeal on Sunday night.

Tyler Higbee Cleared to Play Sunday
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (illness) was limited in practice on Friday but has been removed from the Week 10 injury report and will play on Sunday against the division-rival Arizona Cardinals, according to Blaine Grisak of Sports Illustrated. Higbee came down with an illness on Thursday and did not practice, but he is feeling better now and will be fine to suit up on Sunday in what should be an elevated pass-catching role for the banged-up Rams offense. Fellow tight end Colby Parkinson (rib) will also be active, while Davis Allen (oblique) is questionable. The Rams now have receivers Puka Nacua (knee, toe), Davante Adams (hamstring), and Jordan Whittington (back) on Injured Reserve, so quarterback Matthew Stafford has run out of reliable targets in the passing game going into a very favorable matchup this weekend in the desert. Tight end Terrance Ferguson (ankle, hamstring) also remains on IR. The 33-year-old Higbee has not had more than two receptions or 14 yards in any of the last three games, but with all of L.A.'s wideouts hurt, he will be on the TE1/2 borderline in fantasy football this weekend. In the first meeting with Arizona on Oct. 18, Higbee caught all four of his targets for 22 yards. His lone touchdown in 2026 came in the Sept. 27 loss to the Denver Broncos.

Chris Rodriguez Jr. Good to Go in Week 10
Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. (hand) was limited in practice on Friday but was removed from the Week 10 injury report and will suit up for Sunday's divisional clash in Tennessee against the Titans. Despite being limited in practice all week with a hand injury, Rodriguez is good to go this weekend and will continue his role as the change-of-pace option behind RB1 Bhayshul Tuten. C-Rod played a season-high 45% of the offensive snaps in last week's blowout win over the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night with Tuten nursing an ankle/foot injury. It led to 10 carries (the second-highest total of the season) for only 19 yards, but he managed to find the end zone for the fourth time this year and the second time in as many weeks, while catching both of his targets for 13 yards. He has been second fiddle to Tuten in Jacksonville's backfield this year, so with Tuten active again in Week 10, it is hard to trust C-Rod as anything more than a deep-league, touchdown-dependent RB3/flex option against the Titans. In his first year in Duval in 2026, the former sixth-rounder from Kentucky has carried the football 55 times for 228 yards (career-low 4.1 yards per attempt) and four touchdowns, adding only four catches for 36 yards in the passing game. Rodriguez is ranked as RotoBaller's No. 36 fantasy RB in Week 10.
