Gibson out-gained Rhamondre Stevenson for the second consecutive week, though most of his “production” came in garbage time. It’s still something to keep an eye on as a desperate team searches for offense. Stevenson also lost a fumble this evening. Maybe Gibson will eventually hurt his backfield mate, but he’s unlikely to generate real FLEX value of his own.

Hill re-aggravated a training camp wrist injury earlier this week. He was held out of practice on Friday and Saturday before being listed as questionable. Per Pelissero, the Dolphins may not know until warmups if Hill will be able to suit up. Miami plays on Monday, meaning replacement options for Hill will be scarce if he can’t play. Coming off consecutive two-touchdown performances, Demarcus Robinson would be the best bet among Monday Night Football’s participants.

Dallas traded a fourth-round pick for Lance just before the start of the 2023 season. He has yet to take a snap for the team. With Dak Prescott out, it’s now or never for them to get a look at what he can do. Cooper Rush is slotted in as the starter, but it makes sense for Lance to see some niche work as the cowboys shift into evaluation mode.

Samuel was limited in practice throughout the week before being listed as questionable. The 49ers called him day to day before their Week 9 bye, so there was never much doubt about his Week 10 status. Samuel sits at the top of the WR2 ranks for his matchup with a bottom-tier Bucs pass defense.

McCaffrey has been eyeing a Week 10 return for a while and Schefter even noted that the team believes he could have played last week. The 49ers were on bye, giving McCaffrey an extra week of rest. McCaffrey was listed as questionable this week, but all reports indicated he will play. That appears to be true and the last-place fantasy managers have never been more excited. Even in his first game back after missing the opening two months of the season, McCaffrey will rank as an RB1 versus a soft Tampa Bay defense.

Davis missed Week 9 with the shoulder issue. He practiced in a limited capacity throughout the week and is ready to return today. With Mac Jones taking Trevor Lawrence’s place in the lineup, any hopes of the one-off big play from Davis this week can be thrown out the window.

Thomas played through the injury last week and was never expected to miss Week 10 but was listed as questionable after a few limited practices. He and Gabe Davis are good to go. With Trevor Lawrence out of the lineup, Thomas’s fantasy stock is taking a big hit this week. He will spend a week at the end of the WR2 ranks with Mac Jones as the Jags’ starter.

Head coach Doug Pederson said as much on Friday morning, so the news isn’t much of a surprise. As Schefter notes, the Jags play the Lions next week and get their bye the following week. One more game off after today would give the young quarterback a lengthy recovery team. With their playoff hopes crushed, it makes sense to give Lawrence all the time he needs. Mac Jones will start in his absence. Jones is not on the streaming radar versus a brutal Minnesota defense.

Slayton did not make the trip to Germany and was ruled out earlier this week. Jalin Hyatt will take his place in the lineup. Hyatt has two receptions this year and is not on the fantasy radar for Week 10.

Brooks was listed as questionable for Week 10 despite being removed from the reserve/NFI list earlier this week. He also practiced in full during all three sessions. In the middle of a lost season, the Panthers are taking things absurdly slow with Brooks as he works his way back from a torn ACL. Chub Hubbard will dominate the rushing work versus the Giants this week.

London was unable to finish the team’s Week 9 game after suffering a hip injury in the first half, but proved enough during the week to warrant an active status for Sunday. There has been no reports suggesting his snap rate will be influenced by the injury, although it is always possible he suffers a setback during the game. Fantasy managers can likely role out the veteran alpha wide receiver with confidence.
