Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Isaiah Bond (undisclosed) suffered an undisclosed injury in the Week 8 loss to the New England Patriots, which has kept him from practicing, according to head coach Kevin Stefanski. The head coach said that he will update the specifics of Bond's injury at a later time. We'll have a clearer picture of Bond's Week 10 status against the New York Jets once the Browns release their first injury report of the week on Wednesday. The 21-year-old wideout from Texas went undrafted due to off-the-field issues, but he was eventually scooped up by Cleveland. Bond so far has had a limited role on offense through his first eight NFL games, catching 11 of 30 targets for 123 yards and no touchdowns. His role could grow in the second half of the season, but efficiency is likely to be a problem with rookie quarterback Dillon Gabriel running the offense. As of now, Bond is questionable to be able to play in Week 10.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (rib) is scheduled to have a scan for the rib injury that he suffered in Sunday's blowout win over the New Orleans Saints, according to head coach Sean McVay. The Rams said on Sunday that Nacua could have come back into the game, but they were being overly cautious with the game already in hand. McVay said he feels "optimistic... in regard to where we're potentially heading." It sounds as though the Rams are expecting the 24-year-old to be ready for a big divisional game in Week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers, but we won't know for sure until later this week. Although Nacua was injured in Week 9, he still managed to produce for his fantasy managers before departing, catching seven of his eight targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in the 34-10 victory. If Nacua is active in Week 10, he'll be a must-start against San Fran's banged-up defense.

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery broke his two-game scoreless streak in Week 9, recording 51 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 13 touches against the Minnesota Vikings. However, the veteran also fumbled in a key spot, leading to points for Minnesota that were critical in Detroit's 27-24 loss to its division rival. Montgomery out-touched fellow Lions back Jahmyr Gibbs against the Vikings, but neither back was particularly efficient with their opportunities. Montgomery's workload has been fairly stable for much of 2025, as he's recorded between 12 and 15 touches in five out of eight games. The 28-year-old's minimal role in the passing game and limited rushing workload while sharing time with Gibbs make Montgomery very reliant on touchdowns for fantasy production. He profiles as a low-end fantasy RB2/high-end flex option heading into a Week 10 matchup against the Washington Commanders.

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said he "feels good" about rookie running back Quinshon Judkins' (shoulder) availability for the Week 10 contest this Sunday against the New York Jets, according to Scott Petrak of Browns Zone. Judkins was forced to leave the Week 8 loss to the New England Patriots early due to an AC joint sprain, but with the benefit of a bye in Week 9, he may not have to miss a game. Stefanski called Judkins "day-to-day" on Monday, so fantasy managers have to feel good about the rookie's chances to suit up this weekend in a favorable matchup. The 22-year-old second-rounder out of Ohio State didn't take long to take over lead-back duties in Cleveland this year, and he should be the team's RB1 this weekend if he's cleared. Judkins has been a must-start in fantasy lineups in 2025, posting 486 rushing yards and five touchdowns on his 118 carries through seven starts. He's also added 12 catches for 60 yards on 15 targets.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs had one of his worst games as a pro in his team's 27-24 Week 9 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Gibbs was held to 28 scrimmage yards on 12 touches and did not score a touchdown. The 23-year-old has mostly been a fantasy weapon so far this season, recording 748 yards from scrimmage and seven touchdowns on 142 touches across eight games played. However, there are a couple of worrying signs for Gibbs. He's currently averaging 4.9 yards per carry and 5.3 yards per touch, both of which would be career lows if they were to sustain for the remainder of the season. Additionally, the Lions lost starting left guard Christian Mahogany (knee) to a significant knee injury in Week 9, which could be a major issue for the team's run blocking. Still, Gibbs remains a must-start fantasy running back heading into a Week 10 matchup against the Washington Commanders.

Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski said on Monday that quarterback Deshaun Watson's (Achilles) 21-day practice window will not be opened this week, according to Zac Jackson of The Athletic. "No update, but doing a good job," Stefanski said. Reports have suggested that Watson has been doing really well in his rehab from a torn right Achilles that he suffered in Week 7 of 2024. The 30-year-old veteran signal-caller then had additional surgery on his Achilles in January. Although he has been doing well with his rehab, Watson isn't close to returning to practice and still is not expected to be a factor at QB for the Browns in 2025. The Browns already traded away QBs Joe Flacco and Kenny Pickett, which has left them with rookies Dillon Gabriel and Shedeur Sanders at the position in what is turning into another lost season. It won't be a surprise if Watson doesn't play another snap for the Browns in his career.

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said on Monday that quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) is in the league's "concussion protocol," and the team will continue to evaluate him more throughout the week, per DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN. Stroud suffered a concussion in the first half of Sunday's Week 9 loss to the visiting Denver Broncos and was unable to return. The 24-year-old finished 6-for-10 passing for 79 yards while adding 12 rushing yards on two carries. Davis Mills took over under center and was unable to lead the team to a touchdown in the three-point loss. Stroud will now hope he can clear the NFL's concussion protocol to play on Sunday versus the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars. In his third year in the league, he hasn't been much more than a high-end QB2 for fantasy managers, throwing for 1,702 yards, 11 touchdowns, and five interceptions on 242 pass attempts over eight games.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown continues to see heavy involvement in his team's passing game, recording nine catches for 97 yards on 13 targets in a Week 9 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. St. Brown has now earned double-digit targets in three consecutive contests. Across eight games played in 2025, the 26-year-old has hauled in 59 catches for 635 yards and seven touchdowns on 74 targets. Even in a Lions offense that has other talented pass-catchers, St. Brown has seen 30 more targets than Detroit's second-highest target earner, tight end Sam LaPorta. As long as he stays healthy, St. Brown remains a must-start fantasy wide receiver heading into Detroit's Week 10 matchup against the Washington Commanders.

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young went 11-for-20 for 102 yards and one interception in the team's 16-13 upset victory over the Green Bay Packers in Week 9. After missing last week's game due to an ankle injury, Young logged his worst fantasy performance of the 2025 season this week, registering only 4.0 fantasy points. The third-year quarterback also recorded the lowest number of passing yards in a game, failing to pass for a touchdown for the first time this season, and had his lowest completion percentage since Week 1 (55%). Despite Young's struggles, the Panthers won this game through strong performances on defense and the running game. Rico Dowdle scored the Panthers' two touchdowns, while the defense held the Packers to one TD and two field goals. Fantasy players who roster Young in superflex leagues can consider starting him against the Saints in Week 10. New Orleans allowed four TD passes to Matthew Stafford in Week 9.

In his first game since suffering a high-ankle sprain in the Week 2 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, Minnesota Vikings second-year quarterback J.J. McCarthy impressively led his team to a big road win over the division-rival Detroit Lions on Sunday in Week 9. While the 22-year-old's final stat line wasn't all that impressive -- he went 14-for-25 passing for only 143 yards -- he did throw two touchdowns and added another score on 12 rushing yards. What was impressive was the fact that he was able to lead Minnesota to a tough road win behind a shaky offensive line against a strong opponent in just his third career start after a lengthy injury absence. McCarthy's two touchdown passes went to receiver Justin Jefferson and tight end T.J. Hockenson, with both coming in the first half. At the very last, he's worth stashing as a QB2 with upside in fantasy as he heads into a Week 10 meeting against the Baltimore Ravens.

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard saw little involvement in the running game in Carolina's 16-13 surprise win over the Packers in Week 9. The Panthers' RB logged just 17 yards on five carries while registering 1.7 PPR fantasy points, his lowest in a single game this season. Earlier in the week, head coach Dave Canales said that Rico Dowdle would be the team's starting running back and handle the majority of touches. Sunday's game proved that to be the case, as Hubbard only played on 16.7% of snaps while Dowdle went on to have his third game this year with over 28 PPR points. Fantasy players should bench Hubbard until further notice as a handcuff to Dowdle, but also pay attention to any rumors about him being moved at the trade deadline this week. Another team may resurrect Hubbard's fantasy appeal, so fantasy players should be patient and not cut him yet.

Tetairoa McMillan was the top receiver for the Carolina Panthers again in their 16-13 upset over the Green Bay Packers in Week 9, but the numbers were not outstanding. The rookie wide receiver totaled 46 yards on four receptions with 8.6 PPR fantasy points. Carolina's defense kept the game close, and the Panthers prioritize the running game over the passing game. Although McMillan remains the target hog for the team in the passing game, Carolina's run-first approach is likely to be on display again in Week 10 against the Saints. New Orleans ranks 28th in the last two weeks in fantasy points per game allowed to running backs (29.3), and gave up 172 rushing yards to the Rams RBs in Week 9. Despite the Panthers favoring the running game, fantasy players should continue starting McMillan in lineups, especially as he can flash upside in any given week.

Jalen Coker was a non-factor in the Carolina Panthers' Week 9 stunning triumph over the Green Bay Packers, 16-13. The Panthers' WR caught his only target for nine yards despite playing on 66% of snaps for the second straight week. Carolina's defense shone, and the Panthers relied more on the running game on offense. Xavier Legette was injured and will be evaluated for a concussion. If Legette is unable to play next week, Coker will be in line for increased snaps, which could result in more targets. In Week 10, the Panthers will face the New Orleans Saints, who are coming off one of their worst games against wide receivers this season. They allowed 167 yards and three touchdowns allowed to the Rams' WRs. Although Coker still continues to see many reps and has a seemingly good matchup next week, fantasy players can consider cutting him ahead of Week 10. Coker has not shown any promise yet to exploit a favorable matchup.

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams will likely have an "opportunity for expanded work" heading into a Week 10 tilt on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN. Fellow wideout Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) was injured in Sunday's one-point win over the Atlanta Falcons and is projected to miss practice early in the week. With Boutte up in the air to play this weekend, it could give Williams his first real chance to make noise on offense in his first year in the NFL. Head coach Mike Vrabel said that Williams has "been learning multiple spots, and he has settled down." The 22-year-old third-round pick (69th overall) has been active for all nine games this year, but he has only two catches on six targets for 20 yards. Williams isn't quite a waiver-wire target in 12-team fantasy leagues, though, as he'd likely be the WR4 behind Stefon Diggs, DeMario Douglas, and Mack Hollins this weekend, even if Boutte doesn't play.

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson (knee) injured the meniscus in his knee in Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers and had surgery, forcing him to Injured Reserve. Bensons was initially given a four- to six-week timeline to return after having surgery. He remains on IR and will miss his fourth straight game when the Cardinals take on the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night in Week 9. Benson will be eligible to return for the Week 10 contest against the division-rival Seattle Seahawks, but it's unclear if that is in play for the second-year back. "He's doing well. He's getting better," head coach Jonathan Gannon said on Saturday. Once the Cardinals designate Benson to return from IR and he rejoins the team at practice, they will have 21 days to officially activate him back to the active roster. He was the team's leading rusher with 160 yards on 29 carries through four games before getting hurt. Until Benson can return, the Cardinals will go with a timeshare between Bam Knight and Michael Carter at RB.

New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn told reporters on Monday that veteran quarterback Tyrod Taylor (knee) "will be practicing this week," according to Eric Allen of NewYorkJets.com. Glenn remains mum on who will be the team's starting QB coming out of their bye to face the Cleveland Browns this Sunday in Week 10. The Jets were leaning toward starting Taylor in Week 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals before he came down with a knee injury, forcing Fields into another start. Fields led the Jets to their first win of 2025, going 21-for-32 passing for 244 yards, one touchdown, and no interceptions while adding 31 rushing yards on 11 carries. It seemed as though Fields did enough to get another shot as the starter following the team's Week 9 bye, but apparently, New York isn't sold. If Taylor makes his first start of the year this Sunday, he'd be an unattractive, low-end QB2, at best, against a Browns defense that is the strength of their team.

New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said that wide receiver Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) is unlikely to practice at the start of this week after he injured his hamstring in the one-point win over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 9, according to Chad Graff of The Athletic. Boutte's status for the Week 10 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is "up in the air." The 23-year-old was looking to score for the fourth straight game on Sunday, but instead, he finished with zero catches on just one target before leaving the contest and not returning. Fantasy managers should have a better idea of Boutte's Week 10 status later this week, but as of right now, he's questionable, at best. DeMario Douglas, who had his first 100-yard game and scored against Atlanta, would be in flex territory in fantasy as the WR2 for the Pats against Tampa if Boutte is eventually ruled out.

New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said on Monday that wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) "will be participating in practice this week," according to Brian Costello of the New York Post. Wilson hasn't played since hyperextending his knee in London back on Oct. 12 in a loss to the Denver Broncos, but the 25-year-old appears to be feeling better with the team coming off their bye in Week 9. It's great news that Wilson is expected to get back onto the practice field this week, but it doesn't guarantee he'll be active for a Week 10 contest against the Cleveland Browns this Sunday. Creating more uncertainty for Wilson's fantasy value this week is the fact that the Jets might still be deciding who they are going to start at quarterback between Justin Fields and veteran Tyrod Taylor (knee). Wilson could be limited if he returns this weekend, too, which would make him more of a WR3/flex option for fantasy managers if he suits up against the Browns.

Dynasty | Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has reportedly suffered a dislocated left elbow. Dynasty Analysis: The injury happened late in a 38-14 loss to Seattle when the result was clearly out of reach. Daniels went down and his left (non-throwing) arm went in what can only be described as an un-natural direction. We're awaiting to see an official diagnosis but it's quite possible he misses the rest of the regular season, especially if the Commanders fall out of contention. Daniels' ADP is going to suffer greatly this time as it's fair to now wonder just how his frame can hold up in the NFL long-term.

Dynasty | Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold completed 21-of-24 passes for 330 yards with four touchdowns and one interception in a blowout win over Washington. Dynasty Analysis: Darnold now has 2,084 passing yards, 16 touchdowns and just five interceptions through eight games this year. He's right on pace to record similar numbers he posted in Minnesota last year in what was a career season. In short, Darnold has arrived. While his rushing stats will always hold down his fantasy ceiling, Darnold clearly looks like a QB1 for the foreseeable future with no drop-off in sight.
