  • Tre Tucker WR | LV

    Raiders' Tre Tucker: Gains 38 yards in OT loss

    Tucker finished with three receptions on four targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime loss to Jacksonville.

    Tucker produced the most yards from any Las Vegas wide receiver Sunday, but he finished a distant third behind TE Brock Bowers (12-127-3) and RB Ashton Jeanty (5-47-1) in receiving. The 24-year-old Tucker has seen his production peter out following his outlier three-score performance back in Week 3, averaging 3.8 receptions and 43.2 yards with no touchdowns in the five games since. Tucker should be viewed as a deep-league option heading into next Sunday's tilt versus the Broncos.

  • Patriots' Robert Spillane: Five takedowns in win

    Spillane recorded five total tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 24-23 win over Atlanta.

    Spillane took a step back in Week 9, finishing tied for third on the team in takedowns with fellow linebacker Christian Elliss. Spillane had produced at least nine tackles in five of his prior six contests entering the matchup with the Falcons, but he fell way short of that figure. Regardless, the 29-year-old is off to a strong start this season, compiling 72 total tackles (37 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding two interceptions and a forced fumble over nine games so far.

  • Tony Pollard RB | TEN

    Titans' Tony Pollard: Tallies 68 yards from scrimmage

    Pollard rushed the ball 10 times for 56 yards in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chargers. He added one reception on two targets for 12 yards.

    Pollard out-carried Tyjae Spears 10-7, though the touches were nearly identical when taking into account receptions. Unlike past weeks, Pollard was the more efficient back, as he opened the game with rushes of 16 and 12 yards on Tennessee's first possession. While there were some positives to take away from the performance, Pollard hasn't found the end zone since Week 5, and the split in touches will likely continue to hamper his fantasy outlook.

  • Jaguars' Parker Washington: Leading receiver in OT win

    Washington corralled eight of nine targets for 90 yards in Sunday's 30-29 overtime win over Las Vegas.

    Washington led the Jaguars in receiving Sunday with Travis Hunter (knee) being placed on injured reserve this week. It also helped that starter Brian Thomas (ankle) left the contest late in the fourth quarter, but most of Washington's production came with Thomas still active. Expect the 23-year-old to continue seeing extended run for as long as Hunter remains out. Washington's value could inflate further if Thomas is also unable to suit up against the Texans next Sunday.

  • Bobby Wagner MLB | WAS

    Commanders' Bobby Wagner: Seven stops in loss

    Wagner recorded seven total tackles (three solo), including a tackle for loss, in Sunday night's 38-14 loss to Seattle.

    Wagner finished with a season-low seven takedowns in the defeat, failing to reach double-digit tackles for just the third time this season. The 35-year-old remains one of the most consistent tacklers in the league still, recording 90 total tackles (43 solo), including 2.0 sacks, while also adding an interception over nine contests this season.

  • Cam Ward QB | TEN

    Titans' Cam Ward: No turnovers in loss

    Ward completed 12 of 21 passes for 145 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Chargers. He added two rushes for six yards.

    Ward continues to turn in mixed performances, and there were some positive takeaways in Sunday's loss despite his modest stat line. He completed three passes of at least 20 yards and also didn't turn the ball over for the first time this season. Despite those steps forward, Ward still isn't a strong fantasy option as he has yet to tally multiple touchdowns in a game this season.

  • Chiefs' Hollywood Brown: Re-emerges with 73 yards Sunday

    Brown had two receptions on four targets for 73 yards in Sunday's 28-21 loss to Buffalo.

    Brown resurfaced after being held without a catch in last week's rout of the Raiders. The Chiefs were playing from behind for most of this contest, which helps explain the deep threat's increased involvement Sunday. Brown's four targets checked in at fourth among Kansas City receiving options, a trend that should continue moving forward now that the team's receiving corps is back to full strength. Brown's reduced role should keep him in deep-league territory for fantasy purposes against the Broncos in Week 10.

  • Commanders' Chris Rodriguez: Leading rusher on SNF

    Rodriguez recorded 12 rushes for 65 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-14 loss to the Seahawks.

    Rodriguez's final line was aided by garbage time, as he found the end zone and picked up 38 yards in the final eight minutes of game time. However, his role in the Washington offense is still noteworthy, as he was out-touched only 13-12 by Jacory Croskey-Merritt, a split that was only mildly skewed by opportunity late in the game. While Rodriguez isn't likely to take over lead-back duties in Week 10 against the Lions, it appears he may be in line for an increased role.

  • Matt Gay K | WAS

    Commanders' Matt Gay: Limited action in Week 9

    Gay did not attempt a field goal while making both of his extra-point tries in Sunday night's 38-14 loss to the Seahawks.

    Gay was back in action in Week 9 after missing one contest with a back injury, going without a field-goal try for the second straight game that he's started. The kicker has had an inconsistent campaign in terms of workload and production, and he has now gone 10-for-14 on field-goal attempts, including 4-for-7 from 50-plus yards, while making all 20 of his PATs over eight games this year.

  • Tory Horton WR | SEA

    Seahawks' Tory Horton: Steps up for injured starter on SNF

    Horton finished with four receptions on as many targets for 48 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 38-14 rout of the Commanders.

    Horton filled in for injured starter Cooper Kupp (heel/hamstring) on Sunday Night Football, resulting in the first multi-score game of his young career. The 2025 fifth-round pick wasted no time seizing his opportunity, catching touchdown passes on consecutive scoring drives out of the gates for Seattle. Horton's production was muted in the second half after Sam Darnold began spreading the ball around to auxiliary options in the blowout victory. It is unclear how much more time Kupp will miss (if any), but Horton certainly made his case for more targets moving forward as Seattle prepares to host Arizona next Sunday.
