Carolina Panthers wide receiver
Tetairoa McMillan (hamstring) is expected to play in Sunday's game versus the New Orleans Saints. He showed up on Friday's injury report because of a hamstring issue, resulting in a questionable designation. Fortunately, it appears fantasy managers will have him out there in Week 10. The rookie has played well this season despite only scoring two touchdowns, amassing 41 catches (69 targets) for 558 yards, making him a viable fantasy option in any format for the favorable matchup with the Saints. His presence in the lineup could also make life easier for
Bryce Young, who is coming off a rough showing in Week 9 against the Green Bay Packers.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Chicago Bears running back
D'Andre Swift (groin) is anticipated to suit up on Sunday versus the New York Giants. The 26-year-old has been battling a groin injury for a few weeks. However, it finally kept him off the field for the Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
Kyle Monangai handled nearly all of the snaps out of the backfield in that one, amassing 176 yards off 26 carries, adding three receptions for 22 yards. While Swift might lead the way in snaps at the position, it's hard to imagine Monangai going away after such a strong performance. Unfortunately, the backfield competition makes this situation hard to navigate from a fantasy standpoint. With that said, Swift still is worth starting in most fantasy formats for the favorable matchup with the Giants, although that may change in the weeks ahead.

New York Jets wide receiver
Garrett Wilson (knee) is expected to play on Sunday versus the Cleveland Browns. The wideout injured his knee in the Week 6 loss to the Denver Broncos, keeping him off the field for the Jets' previous two games heading into the Week 9 bye. He practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday and Thursday. However, despite logging a full session on Friday, it still wasn't good enough to avoid a questionable tag. Fortunately, it appears Wilson will suit up, so he's anticipated to pick up right where he left off as the top target for quarterback
Justin Fields. Of course, Wilson is a must-start in all fantasy formats, although his presence could mean less attention for
Tyler Johnson,
Isaiah Williams,
Mason Taylor, and the recently acquired
Adonai Mitchell, assuming he plays.

Detroit Lions kicker
Jake Bates projects as one of the top kicker options for Week 10's matchup against the Washington Commanders. Bates hasn't been quite as effective this season compared to last, however, making just nine of 13 attempts, but he has nailed all 30 of his extra points, which is the most in the league. His 69.2% field goal percentage ranks 31st out of 33 qualified kickers this season. The Lions attempt field goals at one of the lowest rates in the league, but Bates has still struggled to deliver in his limited opportunities. Bates should have plenty of opportunity for scoring in Week 10 against a Washington defense that hasn't shown itself capable of stopping anything recently.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker
Chase McLaughlin has been reliable again this season, making 17 of his 21 field goal attempts and converting 16 of 17 extra points. His 81% field goal percentage ranks just below the league average of 83.6% and is a sizable step down from last season's career best mark of 93.8%, which was third best in the league. The 29-year-old has been money on kicks from 50 yards or longer this season, drilling all eight of his attempts. No other kicker has made more than six. The eight field goals from 50 yards or more are already one shy of his career best mark set back in 2022. McLaughlin has solid streaming value in Week 10 against New England, which is one of the highest projected totals of the week.

The New England Patriots' defense will be tasked with slowing down a strong Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive attack led by
Baker Mayfield on Sunday in Week 10. A battle of MVP candidates puts both Mayfield and Patriots quarterback
Drake Maye in the spotlight midway through the season. Slowing down Mayfield,
Emeka Egbuka,
Rachaad White, and other weapons will be no easy task for the Patriots. However, New England has one of the league's best run defenses, and the Patriots D/ST as a whole ranks second-best in fantasy scoring this season. They have forced eight turnovers over their last five games while putting together an impressive six-game winning streak. A matchup against the Bucs lowers the Patriots' floor, but they remain a solid fantasy option for Week 10. As it stands, the Patriots rank #14 among D/ST units in this week's RotoBaller expert rankings.

New England Patriots kicker
Andy Borregales has not missed a kick in seven consecutive weeks, and he'll look to extend his streak of perfection to eight games during Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The rookie missed in each of his first two games this year, but he has performed without a blemish ever since then. He has benefited from a steady increase in workload, and it has also worked out well that the Patriots' offense is playing at a high level and sets him up for plenty of shorter kicks. Of course, the University of Miami product has shown success from long range, too, converting from beyond 50 yards twice this year. The Buccaneers' defense might slow down the Patriots a little more than they're used to, but we still expect solid volume for New England and its kicker in Week 10. Borregales ranks as the #15 kicker in this week's RotoBaller expert fantasy rankings.

New England Patriots tight end
Hunter Henry is a solid fantasy football option heading into Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Henry's production has varied week by week this year, and it seems like both his breakouts and duds have come with no particular rhyme or reason. Still, fantasy managers should be intrigued by his steady volume and his role atop the depth chart. With wide receiver
Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) ruled out, Henry could end up leading the team in targets and receptions on Sunday. Tampa Bay has surrendered the 11th-fewest fantasy points to tight ends in 2025, but they gave up five catches and 53 yards to
Juwan Johnson in their most recent game. A similar (or better) stat line for Henry would certainly satisfy his fantasy managers. He ranks as a fringe top-12 fantasy tight end with a steady floor.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers own one of the league's best defenses through nine weeks of the season, ranking fourth in EPA/Play. They will have their hands full in Week 10 against one of the NFL's best offenses and one of the leading MVP candidates in
Drake Maye and the Patriots. Tampa Bay has again been elite versus the run thanks to defensive tackle Vita Vea's presence, allowing 3.9 yards per carry. Additionally, they've been effective rushing the passer, ranking fourth in pressure rate (39.8%) and 10th in sack rate (7.6%). That is one nit you can pick in Maye's game, as he has taken more sacks than you want to see from a young quarterback. Maye owns the second-highest sack rate in the league at 11.76% and has taken at least four sacks in six of nine games this season. There is opportunity for Tampa Bay to heat Maye up with Todd Bowles' blitzing style of defense and cause trouble for the second-year quarterback. Tampa Bay ranks as RotoBaller's 20th best defense for Week 10.

New England Patriots wide receiver
Mack Hollins should lead the position group in snap share after
Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) was ruled out for Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Hollins played 63 percent of the snaps last week against the Atlanta Falcons, which led the team. With that being said, leading the team in snaps doesn't necessarily equate to more volume. Hollins should continue to get on the field often, but
Stefon Diggs and
DeMario Douglas will likely be
Drake Maye's favorite targets in the passing game, along with tight end
Hunter Henry. Hollins has been held to two or fewer catches in five of his last six games, with the lone exception being a seven-catch breakout in Week 8. He certainly has upside, but we're a bit wary of starting him in fantasy football given the inconsistency of New England's receivers as a whole. Diggs is the only Patriots wide receiver who should be started with confidence.

New England Patriots wide receiver
Kyle Williams could handle additional volume after
Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) was ruled out for Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. We saw Williams get more involved last week after Boutte exited against the Atlanta Falcons. The rookie finished the game with a season-high (and, thus, career-high) 46 percent snap share, but he wasn't able to haul in his lone target. There's a strong chance that Williams plays more than half the snaps this week, but his exact volume is unclear. After all, he's still competing for targets with players like
Stefon Diggs,
DeMario Douglas,
Mack Hollins,
Hunter Henry, and
Austin Hooper. Thus, while Williams should enjoy the greatest involvement of his young career, it's too early to lock him into fantasy lineups. He can be left on waivers in redraft leagues and stashed on the bench in dynasty formats.

The Washington Commanders elevated wide receiver
Robbie Chosen from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Detroit Lions. Chosen signed with Washington's practice squad in early October as they dealt with and continue to deal with multiple injuries to their top wide receivers, with
Terry McLaurin (quadriceps) and
Noah Brown (groin) missing significant time, and now
Luke McCaffrey (shoulder) is set to miss the remainder of the season. The 32-year-old journeyman appeared in one game for Washington this season in Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys, where he recorded a team-high four catches (four targets) for 36 yards. Chosen still has the vertical speed to threaten defenses deep, and could make a splash play or two in Week 10 against a Lions defense that has allowed the seventh most passing touchdowns this season (16).

The Arizona Cardinals promoted running back
Michael Carter to the active roster from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Carter was cut by the Cardinals the week leading into their Week 9 matchup against the Cowboys, but was quickly signed back to the practice squad soon thereafter. The 26-year-old has fallen out of favor after operating as Arizona's lead back in Week 5 against the Titans, when he handled 18 carries for 51 yards and a touchdown to go with five catches (five targets) for 22 yards. Carter has since fallen behind
Bam Knight and
Emari Demercado in the pecking order for touches and didn't play a single snap in Week 9 versus Dallas. It appears to be trending toward a two-man backfield in Week 10 against Seattle, but things could change. Carter can likely be left on the waiver wire.
--Kyle McCarthySource: Arizona Cardinals
November 8, 2025
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver
Roman Wilson hasn't seen much involvement in the offense in recent weeks. Last week, Wilson hauled in one of his two targets for four yards in the win over the Indianapolis Colts. It has been a bust of a season for Wilson outside of his 74-yard performance in Week 8. The 24-year-old seems to have decent potential, but doesn't see enough targets at the moment. He won't be a viable streaming option until the Steelers decide to get him more involved. Wilson is worth stashing in dynasty leagues, but isn't a recommended streaming option for Week 10.
--Andy WebbSource: Pro Football Reference
November 8, 2025
New England Patriots wide receiver
DeMario Douglas continues to be an unreliable fantasy option heading into Sunday's Week 10 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While Douglas did catch four passes for 100 yards and a touchdown last weekend, he did so on a mere 24 percent snap share. Quite frankly, the 24-year-old capitalized on his opportunities when on the field. However, he has played fewer than one-third of the snaps in seven different games this year, and we haven't seen this type of explosive game from Douglas very often. He has just 18 catches, 262 yards, and three touchdowns, ranking as the overall WR55 in PPR leagues. Perhaps the biggest factor working in Douglas' favor is the absence of
Kayshon Boutte (hamstring), but at the same time, that could lead to more opportunities for
Stefon Diggs and
Kyle Williams than for Douglas. A matchup against the Buccaneers, who have allowed the ninth-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers, also doesn't work in Douglas' favor. He certainly has upside after last week's game and after Boutte was ruled out, but he also has a low floor with two or fewer catches in six of his nine games this season.
