Michael Penix Jr. Continues to Struggle Despite Favorable Matchup
Atlanta Falcons 26-year-old quarterback Michael Penix Jr. continued to struggle in a favorable Week 9 matchup against the Bengals, completing only 20 of 31 pass attempts for 162 yards, one touchdown, and an interception. Surprisingly, he used his legs a bit in this one, which he is not known for, rushing for 50 yards on three carries. This season, Penix has been poor, ranking 28th in dropbacks per game, 20th in EPA per dropback, and 24th in expected fantasy points per game. His schedule also gets much harder over the next few weeks, with matchups against the Chiefs and Vikings on deck. Penix is a dynasty or deep superflex league until further notice.

Vikings Exploring Quarterback Trade Ahead of Deadline
The Minnesota Vikings have started calling teams about a quarterback trade ahead of Tuesday's 4 p.m. ET deadline, according to Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport. Minnesota fell to 6-2 with Monday's 23-6 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Kyler Murray (hamstring) missed all three Week 9 practices, including Saturday's final session, and was inactive after head coach Kevin O'Connell described him as week to week. Carson Wentz started in Murray's place and completed eight of 25 passes for 81 yards with two interceptions. He also lost a fumble. Wentz went without a touchdown pass in both starts. Max Brosmer took over in the fourth quarter and completed six of seven passes for 58 yards on a drive that ended on downs. Minnesota visits the Green Bay Packers in Week 10. Justin Jefferson still drew 11 targets against Buffalo, catching three passes for 58 yards. Jordan Addison is a risky flex if Wentz starts again. Addison has four catches for 49 yards on eight targets across the two games Wentz started, including two catches for 28 yards Monday.

James Conner a Speculative Stash in Deeper Leagues
Arizona running back James Conner is an intriguing fantasy player to stash, despite still not taking the field yet this season. He's yet to even start practicing, and he's spent the entire season on the injured reserve list. Conner could play a big role in the Arizona backfield once he returns, as rookie Jeremiyah Love (ankle) has battled injuries and others have struggled to get rolling. Conner is 31 years old and has been a fantasy force over his career, but it seems unlikely that he'd ever take off with a rebuilding Cardinals squad, especially this season. Those lacking fantasy RBs in really deep leagues could take a chance on Conner and stash him in case he comes back soon and delivers big, or maybe gets moved to another team.

Georgia Tech Transitioning to DeAndre Hopkins as Wide Receivers Coach
Future Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins will take over as Georgia Tech's wide receivers coach after the Yellowjackets let go of former offensive coordinator George Godsey and wide receivers coach Jafar Williams. Hopkins joined the team as an assistant wide receivers coach, likely ending his 13-year NFL career, during which he recorded 13,295 yards receiving and 85 touchdowns receiving. Georgia Tech's passing game has been fairly productive this season, averaging 241.2 yards passing per game. Jordan Allen is the team's leading receiver, totaling 576 yards receiving on 49 receptions, but has found the end zone just once this season.

Travis Hunter Only Worth Deep-League Holds After Week 9
Jacksonville wide receiver and cornerback Travis Hunter is only worth holding in deeper fantasy leagues after he put together another lackluster performance in Week 9. He was targeted just once in the passing game - he made the catch, but lost a yard and also fumbled and lost the ball. Hunter has seven receptions for 75 yards and a touchdown this season, and four catches, 59 yards and the score came in one contest, so he's barely done anything else. He's not getting on the field nearly enough to be worth more than a bench spot in deeper leagues for now. Injuries could push him up the depth chart, but he's a much bigger defensive asset for Jacksonville this season.

Jacksonville Plans to Hold Brian Thomas Jr. Through Trade Deadline
Jacksonville plans to keep wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. on the roster through this year's trade deadline, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The Jaguars have relayed that message to inquiring teams. Thomas was a star in his rookie year in 2024, catching 87 of his 133 targets for 1,282 yards and 10 touchdowns. He regressed in year two across 14 games, tallying 707 yards and two touchdowns over 48 receptions and 91 targets. This season in eight games so far, Thomas has just 117 yards and two touchdowns on 10 catches and 22 targets. He went from playing 80% of the team's offensive snaps as a rookie to 78% of the snaps last year - Thomas is at just 43% so far this season. His fantasy value is dropping rapidly, and staying with the Jaguars won't help his cause.

Malachi Fields Offers Deep-League Value Heading into Week 10
New York Giants wide receiver Malachi Fields has produced more over the past three weeks, and that gives him deep-league fantasy appeal heading into Week 10. The rookie has five or more targets in three straight appearances, but anywhere from 19-83 yards. He's getting on the field more now than he did earlier this season, and it's led to some better fantasy showings. Fields still has only one touchdown grab on the year though, and has only gone over 50 yards twice, so he's no more than a deep-league option. Fields is one to monitor in case he ever takes off, but he should be skipped in standard leagues for now.

Oregon Announces Teitum Tuioti Will Miss Rest of Season
Oregon edge rusher Teitum Tuioti will be out for the remainder of the 2026 season due to a knee injury, according to Ducks head coach Dan Lanning. Tuioti is third on the team in tackles with 44, while he has also recorded 5.5 sacks, which is second on the team, a pass defensed and a forced fumble through nine games this year. Even with Tuioti making a significant impact, the Oregon defense has struggled at times this season, allowing 349.7 total yards per game, which is middle of the pack. Tuioti is a highly sought-after prospect for the upcoming 2027 NFL Draft.

Justice Hill Worth Deep-League Pickups Before Week 10
Baltimore running back Justice Hill is worth adding in some deeper leagues prior to the kickoff of Week 10 games. He's coming off his best fantasy performance of the season - Hill rushed nine times for 85 yards and a score against Jacksonville in Week 9, plus had three receptions for seven yards across three targets. He has only topped 35 total yards in one other game this season, but he does have six or more touches in three straight appearances. In the right matchups, Hill could be deployed in deeper leagues, but behind bellcow Derrick Henry, there's not a lot of work available in the Baltimore backfield. Matchups that favor receiving running backs are where fantasy owners can consider Hill in deeper setups.

Jordan Watkins Worth Waiver Adds After Week 10
San Francisco wide receiver Jordan Watkins is a rising fantasy asset after what he's done over his past two games. He went for 56 yards on three receptions and six targets in Week 7 against Atlanta, then caught all four of his targets for 86 yards and a score against the Raiders in Week 9. He has played more the past three games with the 49ers dealing with a bevy of injuries to offensive players. The more time that Mike Evans (ribs, Achilles), Christian Kirk (knee) and Deebo Samuel Sr. (hamstring) miss, the more valuable Watkins becomes. It's worth noting that Watkins' role could be wiped away with the return of even a couple of those wide receivers though. Watkins is still worth adding in more fantasy leagues going into Week 10. He's a solid deep-league starting option for now, and could become a standard league streaming threat if several Niners miss the game against the Cowboys, which is a very favorable fantasy matchup.

Brian Thomas Jr. a Stash Option in Deep Leagues Before Week 10
Jacksonville wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. is just worth stashing in deep fantasy leagues going into Week 10. A trade could potentially help his cause, but he hasn't done enough on the field this season to be starting in too many leagues. He has 10 receptions for 117 yards and two touchdowns across 21 targets so far this season. Thomas wasn't targeted in the team's blowout Week 9 win over Baltimore, and Thomas has just one catch over his past four appearances combined. His snap counts have fallen way off, and he's played below 50% of the team's totals in two of the past three games. Thomas can still be stashed through the trade deadline, but if his production doesn't pick up soon, he can be dropped in most leagues.

Oregon State Re-Signs Braden Atkinson for 2027 Season
Oregon State has re-signed quarterback Braden Atkinson for the 2027 season, according to On3's Pete Nakos. It will be Atkinson's second season with the Beavers, as he transferred from Mercer, where he played in 2025. Atkinson has been solid for Oregon State this season, recording 3,169 yards passing while completing 65.8% of his passes, throwing 25 touchdowns against just three interceptions. He has also scored two rushing touchdowns. The Beavers' offense is seventh in the country in total yards per game this season, racking up an average of 498.4 yards per contest while scoring 38 points per game, which is 12th-best in the country.
