DeVante Parker Ruled Out Against Commanders

New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker (concussion) will not suit up against the Washington Commanders in Week 9 as he continues to deal with a concussion and hasn't made it through concussion protocols just yet. This will be Parker's first missed game since Week 1, and it comes at a time when the Patriots […]

FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Week 9 - Daily Fantasy Football Targets Include Alvin Kamara, CeeDee Lamb, and Demario Douglas

My good friend and colleague, Dennis Clausen, usually endorses his favorite FanDuel NFL DFS plays in this piece each week. But this week, he's under the […]

Patriots' Defense Has Streaming Appeal Against Washington

The New England Patriots' defense is a fringe streaming option in Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. While the Washington offense has shown signs of life at times, including last Sunday when it dropped 31 points on the Eagles, there's no denying that Sam Howell is susceptible to turnovers and an awful lot of sacks. […]

Chad Ryland Off Fantasy Radar Despite Favorable Matchup

New England Patriots kicker Chad Ryland should be avoided in fantasy football ahead of Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. While Washington's suspect defense has allowed the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing kickers, Ryland has been a bottom-of-the-barrel option at the position this year. The rookie is just 9-for-13 on field goals and […]

Aaron Jones, Rhamondre Stevenson, James Cook: Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks for Fantasy Football Week 9

The Week 9 NFL slate is finally here, which means it's time for fantasy managers to make tough, last-minute start 'em, sit 'em decisions. Aaron Jones, Rhamondre Stevenson, and James Cook have been tough choices most weeks. All three players have had very good showings at some point this year. Can they add another one […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Trending Up For Week 9

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson should be a solid fantasy football option for Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. For starters, Washington traded away defensive ends Chase Young and Montez Sweat this week, leading to far less pressure around the line of scrimmage. Washington was already a middle-of-the-pack team in terms of defending […]

Hunter Henry Quickly Becoming Non-Factor

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has suddenly fallen off the fantasy football map and is not a reliable option ahead of Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. Consistently playing between 80 and 90 percent of snaps during his first five games this year, the 28-year-old hasn't seen a snap share above 62 percent […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Headed For Larger Role In Week 9

New England Patriots wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster could see increased opportunities in Week 9 with Kendrick Bourne (knee) done for the season and DeVante Parker (concussion) trending towards being ruled out. Speculation out of New England suggests that rookie Demario Douglas and Tyquan Thornton could see their roles increase the most, but it's worth noting […]

Mac Jones A Low-End Streaming Option in Week 9

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones is a borderline streamer in single-QB leagues ahead of Week 9 versus the Washington Commanders. Not only does he face a greater challenge after losing Kendrick Bourne (ACL) for the season, but he also takes on a statistically solid defense this week. While the Commanders might not be as […]

Should I Pick Up and Start Derek Carr in Week 9? Fantasy Football Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Picks

Derek Carr and the New Orleans Saints may be simpatico after all.

That stat may be a surprise because the star wideout on this offense, Chris Olave, was held under […]
