Keys to a fantasy football win in Week 10

Dominate your fantasy football leagues with these keys to winning Week 10.

Warren has looked good since returning from a knee injury in Week 6. Over the past two games, he has played 45% of the Steelers snaps and earned 13 opportunities per game. Warren has quietly taken over the handoff duties from Najee Harris. Warren has run 14% more routes than Najee Harris over the past two games and has handled 100% of the two-minute foul snaps.

Now Warren is coming off the bye week, which gave his knee some extra rest. He faces the Commanders in Week 10 – a great spot, as Washington allows the second-most rushing yards per game, according to NFL Pro. The Steelers are also the underdogs in this game, which could lead to more passing down snaps for Warren. You can pick it up and play it in week 10.

Tracy managed to pass the concussion protocol and suit up for Week 9. He started the game strong with 50 yards in the first quarter alone. It was a great game against a poor Commanders defense. But despite the hot start, Tracy couldn’t maintain this production throughout the game. He finished with 69 scoreless yards on 17 touches.

But the good news is that his role remained strong. Tracy earned 69% of the team’s snaps and 17 touches, compared to just seven touches for Singletary. Expect Tracy to bounce back this week against the Panthers, who are allowing the most rushing yards per game. Carolina just gave up 215 yards to Alvin Kamara last week. Start Tracy with confidence in week 10.

Hubbard is coming off a nice rebound game. He posted more than 20 fantasy points on 17 touches against the Saints. Hubbard found the end zone twice and again benefited from a strong match. He has now recorded four top-12 finishes on the season and is averaging a whopping 18.1 chances per game.

This week he takes on the Giants, who are allowing the most rushing yards per game according to NFL Pro. Now, there’s a chance rookie Jonathon Brooks plays in Week 10, but that’s not a guarantee. The Panthers have been extremely cautious with Brooks, so even if he plays, expect a limited role. Start Hubbard against this poor Giants defense.

Robinson frustrated fantasy managers in Week 9. He was dealing with a hamstring injury but was originally reported to play. Then, just an hour before the start of the match, Robinson was ruled out. He’s practiced so far this week, so it seems likely he’ll be able to play, but it’s a tough game for him.

Robinson will have to face the Steelers. Coming out of the bye week healthy, Pittsburgh had an extra week to prepare for this high-powered Commanders offense. The Steelers are allowing the fourth fewest yards per play this season. It’s a tough game for Robinson early on, but there’s a good chance he’ll be limited in this game due to his hamstring injury. Ideally, you have a better option on your bench to play in Robinson’s place. Chances are he’ll pop up for you if he doesn’t find the end zone.

Purdy returns from his bye week and gets an ideal match. He’s going up against the Bucs who allow the third-most passing yards per game. Tampa now faces Purdy and the 49ers, who average the fourth-most passing yards per game. The Bucs allowed 291 yards and three passing touchdowns to Patrick Mahomes last week. This was Mahomes’ best fantasy day of the season and the first time he’s thrown for three touchdowns since Week 7 of 2023. It’s a great spot for Purdy as his offense finally gets healthy.

The 49ers return from a much-needed bye week and are expected to get Christian McCaffrey and Jauan Jennings back from injuries. This offense already ranks fifth in EPA per play this season according to NFL Pro and should only improve with McCaffrey and Jennings back.

Also note the role of rookie WR Ricky Pearsall coming off the bye week. He posted 77 yards on five touches in Week 8 before the bye, and there’s a chance the 49ers expand his role now that he’s healthy. San Francisco’s offense is moving in the right direction, and that helps Purdy. He is a must-start QB this week.

Thomas Jr. performing poorly in Week 9, where he produced just two catches for 22 yards on four targets. But this needs more context because Thomas started this game with less than 100% health. Earlier in the week there was a decent chance Thomas could have missed this game. But he could take it out and play.

This context is important because it explains an unusually bad day for Thomas. This was only the second time this season that Thomas failed to reach 10 fantasy points. The Jaguars’ rookie first-round pick currently has three top-10 finishes this year and he ranks in the top 10 in both yards per route and yards after the catch according to Player Profiler. He has been incredibly efficient and productive when healthy this season.

He has a sneaky good game against the Vikings in week 10. Believe it or not, Minnesota is allowing the fifth-most passing yards per game this season. Even with Mac Jones likely to start in place of an injured Trevor Lawrence, expect Thomas to bounce back in a big way this week; Make sure it’s in your lineup.

Jacobs is entering his bye week and it’s the perfect time to send for a trade for him. In general, targeting players during their bye week is a good strategy. Normally you can get these players at a discount because they won’t be useful to their fantasy manager that week. Try doing this with Jacobs, who was headed to a career day in Week 9 before everything went wrong for Green Bay.

Jacobs produced 102 total yards midway through the second quarter on Sunday. He dominated the Lions on the ground, but then Jordan Love threw a pick-six. This left Green Bay two scores behind and they were never able to recover. The Packers went heavy on the passing game the rest of the way, with Jacobs producing just six yards in the final 2.5 quarters of play.

Despite the poor second-half showing in Week 9, Jacobs still managed to top 90 meters for the fifth game in a row. He has also scored more than 12 fantasy points in all but one game this season. Jacobs has been reliable and remains the workhorse in one of the better offenses in the league. Buy low on Jacobs if you can. Trade someone like DeVonta Smith or Marvin Harrison Jr. for him.

Williams is coming off his second consecutive disappointing week for fantasy managers. In Week 9, Williams totaled 84 scoreless yards on 14 touches. He averaged six yards per touch, which is great, but almost 50% of those yards came on one long catch and run. Aside from that broken play, it was a bad day for Williams, both in terms of production and usage.

Williams quietly played just 54% of the Broncos’ snaps in Week 9. This was his lowest snap total since Week 3. He also saw below 50% of backfield carries for the first time since Week 3 and for the third time this season . . Williams’ performances have now declined in four straight games and the Broncos have stated they plan to involve rookie Audric Estimé more. This week, Williams faces a Chiefs defense that is allowing the second-fewest yards per play this season. Williams is trending down and is a sit this week.
