Drake London a Low-End WR1 in Game with High Projected Point Total
Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London was a huge letdown in Week 8, but with Michael Penix Jr. completing just eight passes and throwing four interceptions, it is hard to fault London. Week 8 aside, the 6-foot-4 wideout has shown excellent chemistry with his quarterback, drawing at least six looks in all six games they've played together this season, and tallying 10-plus targets in four out of six. Week 9 brings a contest in Madrid, Spain against the Bengals that has shootout potential written all over it, and London should stand to benefit. The Bengals are allowing the 11th-most fantasy points per game to wide receivers, allowing eight touchdowns to opposing wideouts through seven games (tied for fourth-most). With a projected point total in this one that is north of 50, the 25-year-old appears primed to get back on track with a big performance, though touchdowns have been hard to come by this season as he's found the end zone just once. View the USC product as a low-end WR1 for this week's international game.

Colby Parkinson a Deep-League Option for Week 9 if Active
Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson (ribs) is listed as questionable for Week 9 against the Washington Commanders, but he has the potential to carve out standalone value in deeper fantasy leagues if he suits up. Parkinson is working his way back from missing Week 8, and managers are hopeful that he can return to the level of productivity that he demonstrated in Weeks 6-7. Across those two games, he totaled 10 catches, 79 yards, and one touchdown. Los Angeles has seen subpar production from Tyler Higbee in Parkinson's absence, so the 27-year-old should step right into the No. 1 role upon his return, especially with Terrance Ferguson (ankle) still on injured reserve. Additionally, we would expect Parkinson to operate as one of Matthew Stafford's top targets behind Puka Nacua, with Ferguson and Davante Adams (hamstring) both sidelined. In addition to the solid role, Parkinson should benefit from a matchup against the Commanders, who have allowed the second-most fantasy points to tight ends in 2026. If he suits up, he should be a mid-range TE2 in fantasy football with TE1 upside.

Bijan Robinson Remains a Must-Start Against Bengals in Madrid
Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson rushed 19 times for 76 scoreless yards in last week's loss to the Bucs, and was held catchless for the first time since the 2023 season. Let's just chalk that one up to bad weather and poor quarterback play, and expect things to get back to normal this week for the team's matchup against the Bengals in Madrid, Spain. Though Cincinnati has a solid run defense by various metrics, the unit ranks near the bottom in terms of yards allowed per rush attempt, yielding the fourth-most in the NFL (4.8 yards/rush). Robinson, who is averaging 5.2 yards per rush (fourth-most), should be able to take advantage this week, and in a game that has the highest projected point total on the slate (52.5), expect the former Longhorn to be a big reason why it is so high. The 24-year-old ranks as the No. 3 running back overall in Week 9 at RotoBaller, so season-long and DFS managers should feel confident slotting him in as a high-floor, high-ceiling RB1.

Tyler Higbee a Risky Week 9 Option Despite Enticing Matchup
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has an enticing matchup against the Washington Commanders in Week 9, but his recent track record keeps him off the fantasy football radar in most leagues. Higbee has had several opportunities to produce over the last few weeks, including Week 7 as the Rams' No. 1 tight end against a Raiders defense that struggles to cover the position. Instead, he has contributed just three catches over his last two games. Even with players like Colby Parkinson (rib), Terrance Ferguson (ankle), and Davante Adams (hamstring) missing time, Higbee has not produced like many fantasy managers initially expected. That pattern may continue in Week 9, especially with Parkinson, who is listed as questionable, in the mix to suit up. The matchup is undeniably encouraging, as the Commanders have allowed the second-most fantasy points to tight ends in 2026. However, Higbee's frustrating track record against subpar defenses over the last two weeks makes him avoidable on Sunday, even if Parkinson doesn't end up playing. He ranks as the TE20 in RotoBaller's latest fantasy football rankings for Week 9.

Matthew Stafford Remains a Strong QB1 Option Against Washington
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has maintained QB1 value despite the absence of Davante Adams (hamstring), and he should continue to rank as a top-10 option for Week 9 against the Washington Commanders. Although the veteran quarterback hasn't had one of his primary receivers available, he has still been able to produce at a high level for fantasy football thanks to his advanced passing skills and a supporting cast headlined by superstar Puka Nacua. The 38-year-old routinely gets the Rams into scoring position, and he's now up to 15 touchdowns this season (plus eight turnovers). It seems unlikely that he'll replicate last season's QB3 finish, but he is still the QB10 in scoring this year. He'll also benefit from this week's matchup against the Commanders, who have allowed the fifth-most passing touchdowns and ninth-fewest interceptions to opposing quarterbacks. He ranks as the overall QB10 in RotoBaller's Week 9 fantasy football rankings.

Saints Release Kendre Miller
The New Orleans Saints released running back Kendre Miller on Saturday, a source told Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. It is a bit of a surprising move, as Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) remains on Injured Reserve after not having his 21-day practice window opened by the Saints this week. The 24-year-old Miller will finish the year with the Saints having carried the football a career-high 57 times for 159 yards (2.8 yards per attempt) and two rushing touchdowns, adding nine receptions on 13 targets for 37 yards through the air in six games played. He had a 20-carry outing in Week 6 against the Giants with Etienne sidelined, but outside of that, Miller did not move the needle much in fantasy while sharing backfield work with veteran Alvin Kamara. With Etienne out again in Week 9 against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, Kamara and Audric Estime will be the team's primary RBs, with one of Jarquez Hunter or Zamir White coming up from the practice squad, with CJ Donaldson (shoulder, concussion) injured. Miller should receive some interest on the open market for RB depth elsewhere.

Deshaun Watson Cleared From Concussion Protocol, Remains Questionable
Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson (head) has been cleared from the NFL's concussion protocol on Saturday but remains questionable for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints in Week 9, according to Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. The Browns already announced on Friday that second-year QB Shedeur Sanders will start against the Saints, but Watson will make the trip and could be active as Sanders' backup. The 31-year-old Watson did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday before getting in a limited practice on Friday, which gives him a chance to suit up this weekend. The three-time Pro Bowler has led Cleveland to a 5-3 record through the first eight weeks in 2026, but he leads the NFL in sacks taken (33) and has not thrown a touchdown pass in the last three games. The Browns have not given Watson a vote of confidence by saying that he will be their starter after Week 9, so if Sanders comes in and shows out in New Orleans, the team could have a QB controversy on their hands. Watson came into Week 9 as the QB17 overall in fantasy scoring with 1,806 passing yards, seven touchdowns, and three interceptions in his eight starts.

Jordyn Tyson Should be "Good to Go" to Face Browns
New Orleans Saints rookie first-round wide receiver Jordyn Tyson (hamstring) plans to make his NFL debut on Sunday against the visiting Cleveland Browns in Week 9, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz. New Orleans listed Tyson as questionable on their final injury report for the week on Friday. Tyson, the eighth overall pick in this year's NFL Draft, has yet to play this year due to a lingering hamstring injury, but he "should be good to go" this weekend. The Saints will need to officially activate the 22-year-old pass-catcher from Injured Reserve on Saturday. Tyson was limited in all three practices this week after the Saints opened his 21-day practice window, which suggests he could be limited in terms of his workload on Sunday in his NFL debut against Cleveland. The rookie's return will be bad news for Devaughn Vele going forward, as Tyson is eventually expected to become the team's WR2 across from Chris Olave. Tyson should now be rostered in most fantasy football leagues, but leaving him on your bench is the smart play in Week 9.

Kenny Gainwell More Than Just a Handcuff Going Forward?
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Kenny Gainwell has emerged as an intriguing waiver wire target, and he appears to be more than just a handcuff going forward. The Bucs have leaned on the run game the last two weeks, allowing both Bucky Irving and Gainwell to carve out substantial standalone value in fantasy football. After logging just 19 carries through the first six weeks of the season, Gainwell has exploded with 39 carries over his last two games, partly due to game script and weather. While Tampa could certainly scale back the rushing attempts this week against the Bears, Irving should remain a fringe RB1 while Gainwell continues to be an RB3/flex option. As a result, fantasy managers should consider picking up Gainwell ahead of Week 9. He is no longer just a handcuff with appeal to Irving's managers, but is now a legitimate option for fantasy lineups in leagues with 12+ teams. Although he remains available in 52% of leagues, managers should make a move to pick him up now, because his roster share will soar if he turns in another big performance on Sunday night.

Devin Singletary an Intriguing Week 9 Streamer with Potential for Stable Role
New York Giants running back Devin Singletary has emerged as an intriguing streaming option for Week 9 against the Philadelphia Eagles, and he has the potential to carve out standalone value over the rest of the season. The Giants recently released Najee Harris and lost Tyrone Tracy Jr. (hamstring) to injured reserve, leaving Singletary in the No. 2 running back role. Now, Cam Skattebo (hamstring) is doubtful for Week 9, putting Singletary in line to earn the start. He could feast in a high-volume role against a banged-up Eagles squad, so there's a realistic opportunity for him to finish this week as an RB2 in fantasy football. However, his upside spans beyond this week. The Giants have reportedly been exploring the trade market for a running back, but if they don't bolster their backfield ahead of the trade deadline, Singletary would be solidified as the No. 2 ball-carrier for the rest of the season. Skattebo has yet to prove he can be an every-down back, so there's an opportunity for Singletary to carve out standalone value as a low-end RB3/flex week after week. The 29-year-old should be a priority addition for fantasy managers; not only should he earn the start this week, but he could be a solid lineup option in 12+ team leagues for the rest of the season.

Patriots Optimistic A.J. Brown Will Return After Week 11 Bye
New England Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown (ankle, knee) will miss a second straight game in Week 9 against the Green Bay Packers due to a knee injury that has hampered him during his career, but the Patriots are optimistic that the star wideout will return after their bye in Week 11, according to Kinnu Singh of Bleacher Report. It has been a disappointing year for Brown, as he landed on Injured Reserve after suffering a high-ankle sprain in the Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. After returning in Week 6, Brown played two games before popping up on the injury report with a knee issue that has knocked him out of the last two games. The quick turnaround may have put additional stress on his troublesome knee. Singh points out that the Los Angeles Rams were interested in acquiring Brown from the Philadelphia Eagles in the offseason as well, but they were scared off by medical concerns about his knee. In just three games played in 2026, Brown has caught only nine passes for 101 yards and no touchdowns, while averaging just 8.3 yards per catch. The 29-year-old three-time Pro Bowler should remain stashed in most fantasy football leagues, but managers are beginning to run out of patience.

Myles Garrett Officially Activated Off Injured Reserve
The Los Angeles Rams announced on Saturday that they officially activated star pass-rusher Myles Garrett (knee) from Injured Reserve. Garrett was placed on IR by the Rams after he had arthroscopic surgery on his left knee following the team's season-opening loss in Australia to the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. The 30-year-old All-Pro defensive end did not look like himself in his debut for the Rams, but hopefully, he is now back to his elite pre-injury form, which would be a massive boost to an already strong defensive front in L.A. It is bad news for a banged-up Washington Commanders' offense this Sunday in Week 9. Because of Garrett's extended absence, the Rams could take it easy on him and limit the number of defensive snaps that he plays this weekend, which will make him riskier as a starting defensive lineman in IDP fantasy formats. Still, the NFL's single-season sack leader will provide a big boost alongside fellow star pass-rusher Aaron Donald.

Oronde Gadsden Off the Streaming Radar in Week 9 vs. Texans
Los Angeles Chargers tight end Oronde Gadsden is coming off his biggest performance of the season. The 23-year-old caught all five of his targets for 52 yards and finished Week 8 as the TE14. Gadsden has disappointed this season, but his recent performance could jump-start his season. However, Gadsden enters Week 9 as RotoBaller's PPR TE32 in an intriguing matchup against the Houston Texans. The Texans defense has allowed the third-most 20-plus-yard passing plays and the ninth-most yards per reception. Gadsden will need to stack good fantasy performances to earn managers' trust. He should be viewed as a TE3 and is not a reliable streaming option in Week 9.
