Raiders fire special teams coordinator Tom McMahon

Fri Nov 7 5:31pm ET
Field Level Media

The Las Vegas Raiders fired special teams coordinator Tom McMahon, the team announced Friday afternoon.

It would appear Thursday's 10-7 loss to the Denver Broncos was the final straw for McMahon, who has been in that role with the Raiders since 2022, two head coaches ago.

In that narrow loss, punter AJ Cole had a punt blocked for the second time this season, setting up what became the game-winning field goal for Denver. Las Vegas kicker Daniel Carlson missed a would-be game-tying field goal with 4:26 left.

A missed extra point the week prior in the overtime loss to Jacksonville and a blocked field goal in the Raiders' 25-24 loss to Chicago on Sept. 28 also loom large as special teams problems that have played a role in the team's 2-7 record.

"Earlier today, we made the tough decision to relieve Tom McMahon of his duties as special teams coordinator," coach Pete Carroll said in a statement. "I have a great amount of respect for Tom and the work that has done in this league, but we have decided to move in a different direction. Derius Swinton II will assume special teams coordinator duties for the second half of this season with outstanding intent and purpose.

"We are grateful for Tom and his work here with the Raiders and wish him nothing but the best moving forward."

McMahon has been consistently working as a special teams coach in the NFL since he was the assistant special teams coach for the Atlanta Falcons in 2007-08. He's since served as the ST coordinator for the St. Louis Rams (2009-11), Kansas City Chiefs (2012), Indianapolis Colts (2013-17) and Broncos (2018-21) before landing in Las Vegas.

Value Picks: Week 10

Player Notes
Blake Corum Nov 10 2:13am ET
Blake Corum

Dynasty | Rams running back Kyren Williams had 73 rushing yards, two catches, 11 receiving yards, and two touchdowns in a win against San Francisco. Dynasty Analysis: He had 14 carries and Blake Corum had 13, which is a little concerning. Still, Williams has a nose for the end zone and smelled it twice in this one. He might be a bit of a "sell high" in dynasty leagues based on the emergence of Corum but his ADP and ranking seem pretty secure at the moment.

Brock Purdy Nov 10 2:13am ET
Brock Purdy

Dynasty | 49ers quarterback Mac Jones completed 33-of-39 passes for 319 yards with three touchdowns and one interception in a loss to the Rams. Dynasty Analysis: There may be no quarterback controversy in San Francisco but Jones has clearly shown he has the ability to start in the NFL. He's thrown for over 2,000 yards with a completion percentage near 70% while posting 13 touchdowns and six interceptions in his eight starts so far. While Brock Purdy will undoubtedly get this job back, Jones has auditioned to start for someone next season, so he makes for a solid dynasty stash.

Jahmyr Gibbs Nov 10 2:13am ET
Jahmyr Gibbs

Dynasty | Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs had 142 rushing yards, three catches, 30 receiving yards and three touchdowns in a win against the Commanders. Dynasty Analysis: He did all this on only 18 touches. It was a ridiculously efficient game for Gibbs, who averaged 9.5 yards per carry and ten yards per catch on the day. We've seen games like this from Gibbs before, so we know it's no fluke. He remains one of the top players in the dynasty format and today just solidified it further.

Jameson Williams Nov 10 2:13am ET
Jameson Williams

Dynasty | Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams had six catches for 119 yards and a touchdown in a win against Washington. Dynasty Analysis: Dan Campbell apparently took over the play calling duties in the game and Williams was clearly a focal point. This was one of the best games he's had all year and if this is the start of something big, the buying window has clearly closed for him in dynasty leagues. He'll remain a WR2/3 with upside at the moment but his dynasty ceiling is about as high as anyone's.

Marvin Harrison Jr. Nov 10 2:13am ET
Marvin Harrison Jr.

Dynasty | Arizona tight end Trey McBride had nine catches for 127 yards and a touchdown in a blowout loss to the Seahawks. Dynasty Analysis: Seattle jumped out to a 35-0 lead in this one and forced Arizona to throw the ball 44 times, which was likely not the plan heading into the game. McBride and Marvin Harrison Jr combined for 25 of those targets and while Harrison (3/33/1) scored, McBride did a little more with his. After a weird streak of touchdown-less game last season, he has now matched his total of six from his first three seasons and that number is bound to increase moving forward. McBride is entrenched as a top-2 dynasty tight end.

Tyler Shough Nov 10 2:13am ET
Tyler Shough

Dynasty | Saints quarterback Tyler Shough completed 19-of-27 passes for 282 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in a win against Carolina. Dynasty Analysis: OK, then. Shough is obviously on borrowed time as the Saints quarterback unless he puts the team on his back and gets them out of range to draft his replacement next Spring. Today was a step in that direction as he ran the offense and looked pretty comfortable doing it. While it's just one game, Shough has looked markedly better than Spencer Rattler and his ADP and rookie ranking is clearly rising.

Rhamondre Stevenson Nov 10 2:13am ET
Rhamondre Stevenson

Dynasty | Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson had 147 rushing yards, one catch, three receiving yards and two touchdowns in a win against Tampa Bay. Dynasty Analysis: This was the day dynasty managers had been dreaming about since Henderson was drafted last Spring. With Rhamondre Stevenson out, Henderson finally got his chance to shine and took advantage of it. Even better, he did it on just 15 touches. Henderson simply has to be in line to start moving forward but we've seen some strange things in terms of New England's loyalty to Rhamondre Stevenson. Regardless, Henderson's ADP slide will now come to an abrupt end.

From Dynasty League Fantasy

Breece Hall Nov 10 2:13am ET
Breece Hall

Dynasty | Jets running back Breece Hall had 83 rushing yards, one catch, 42 receiving yards and a touchdown in a win over the Browns. Dynasty Analysis: Hall should get a 20% point kicker just by playing on the Jets but alas, that's not how fantasy football works. Regardless, Hall reminded us all just how talented he really is as he worked hard to shed tackles and show his speed in the process. After not being traded, Hall is likely auditioning for a solid free agent contract so dynasty managers can expect his effort level to stay consistent as he hunts for a new deal. His ADP slide will end at least for this week.

Jaxson Dart Nov 10 2:13am ET
Jaxson Dart

Dynasty | Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart completed 19-of-29 passes for 242 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions prior to exiting with a concussion in a loss to the Bears. Dynasty Analysis: Dart clearly has what it takes to be an effective NFL quarterback but this injury may keep him out a week or two. You can imagine the Giants will be careful with him in the concussion protocol after they were fined for going through the motions with him and putting him right back in the game a couple of weeks ago. Dart's ADP and rookie ranking are safe and dynasty managers honestly likely hope he can simply sit out a bit as we await the return of his playmakers next season.

Kimani Vidal Nov 10 2:13am ET
Kimani Vidal

Dynasty | Chargers running back Kimani Vidal had 95 rushing yards, one catch, 13 receiving yards and a touchdown in a win against Pittsburgh. Dynasty Analysis: Vidal has taken the job left by Omarion Hampton and, well, run with it. His production has been solid as he's posted at least 95 rushing yards every time he's had at least 18 carries (three times so far) and the Chargers really haven't missed a beat. While no real threat to Hampton's long-term job, Vidal has played well enough to let Los Angeles take their time in bringing Hampton back. Even then, Vidal has likely earned at least a change-of-pace role upon his return. He belongs on dynasty rosters now even beyond Hampton's return.

Kyle Williams Nov 10 1:20am ET
Kyle Williams

New England Patriots rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams made one of the highlight plays of the week with a 72-yard catch and run touchdown, marking his first career score in a 28-23 Week 10 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Williams had only one reception on two targets, but the rookie made it count as he showed off his blazing speed on the long score. The rookie third-rounder hit a max speed of 21.78 mph on the play, which was the seventh fastest top speed by any player in the NFL this season, per Next Gen Stats. It was the highest mark by a Patriot all season until fellow rookie TreVeyon Henderson one-upped him, hitting 22.01 mph on his 55-yard touchdown run. Williams was expected to see more action with Kayshon Boutte (hamstring) out, but he had just a 58% route share in the game. It will be interesting to see how the wide receiver rotation shakes out when Boutte returns, but Williams flashed his big-play ability and certainly warrants more snaps going forward.

Parker Washington Nov 10 1:10am ET
Parker Washington

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Parker Washington caught three of his seven targets for 33 yards and a touchdown, added two carries for minus-four yards, and returned a punt 73 yards for another touchdown in a 36-29 loss in Week 10 to the Houston Texans. Washington was Jacksonville's top target earner for the second straight week, with top wideouts Brian Thomas Jr. (ankle) and Travis Hunter (knee) both sidelined. The 23-year-old led the Jaguars in routes and slot rate in Week 10, with recent trade acquisition Jakobi Meyers mostly aligning out wide and only running 50% routes. Washington had an impressive contested touchdown grab in the corner of the end zone during the first quarter, then added an electric punt return for a touchdown in the second quarter to reward fantasy managers who put their faith in him. Washington will project as a strong flex option again in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Jerry Jeudy Nov 10 1:00am ET
Jerry Jeudy

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught six of his 12 targets for 78 yards and his first touchdown of the season in a 27-20 loss to the New York Jets. Jeudy set season highs in every receiving category except for targets and logged his first double-digit PPR performance since Week 1. The 26-year-old has mightily struggled with drops this season while navigating a tough offensive environment with the Browns. Entering Week 10, his eight drops ranked second most among all pass catchers, and his 40.7% catch rate was the third lowest out of 186 players, per Pro Football Reference. The veteran wideout took advantage of a Jets defense that just traded away top cornerback Sauce Gardner and will look to build on the strong performance in Week 11 versus the Baltimore Ravens.

Jaylen Waddle Nov 10 12:50am ET
Jaylen Waddle

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle led the team in receiving again in their Week 10 upset win over the Buffalo Bills, catching five of his seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown. Waddle had an outstanding 38-yard touchdown catch where he also drew a pass interference penalty in the game, and continues to assert himself as one of the best wide receivers in the league. Outside of a monsoon game in Cleveland in Week 7, where Waddle caught only one of four targets for 15 yards, the 26-year-old has posted at least 80 receiving yards in every game since Tyreek Hill (knee) went down in Week 4. Waddle has recorded 29 receptions for 485 yards and three touchdowns on 43 targets in that span, averaging 16 PPR points per game. Waddle projects for another strong fantasy day in Week 11 when the Dolphins travel to Madrid to face a putrid Washington Commanders defense.

Kimani Vidal Nov 10 12:30am ET
Kimani Vidal

Los Angeles Chargers running back Kimani Vidal handled another big workload as the team's lead back in Sunday night's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers, totaling 25 carries for 95 yards and a touchdown to go with one reception (one target) for 13 yards. Vidal has alternated breakout performances with duds over the last few weeks, but the heavy usage has remained consistent while he fills in for an injured Omarion Hampton (ankle). Fantasy managers will largely be happy with Vidal's production as an add off the waiver wire, scoring at least 17 PPR points in three of his five games as the Chargers' workhorse. The second-year back should get at least one more game as the team's top running back before Hampton is expected to return after their Week 12 bye. Vidal will rank as a mid-range RB2 in Week 11 versus the Jaguars.

Ladd McConkey Nov 10 12:20am ET
Ladd McConkey

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey caught four of his six targets for 107 yards and a touchdown in Sunday night's 25-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. McConkey has been on a tear over the last six games following a slow start to the season. The second-year wideout averaged just 8.4 PPR points per game over the first four games, but has bounced back since, posting 17.4 per game since Week 5. McConkey's 107 receiving yards were more than double the next closest Chargers' pass catcher, with Quentin Johnston finishing with 42 yards. The 24-year-old remains the clear top target for Justin Herbert and should continue to be a high-end fantasy producer for the rest of the season. McConkey will rank on the WR1/WR2 border for Week 11 against the Jaguars.

Rome Odunze Nov 9 10:50pm ET
Rome Odunze

Chicago Bears wide receiver Rome Odunze surprisingly put up a donut for his fantasy managers in the Week 9 comeback win over the Cincinnati Bengals in a game in which the Bears put up 40-plus points. The 23-year-old second-year pass-catcher rewarded fantasy managers who stuck with him in another comeback win for Chicago on Sunday over the New York Giants, as Odunze caught six of his 10 targets for a team-high 86 yards and a touchdown. Odunze also led the Bears in receptions and targets, and his sixth touchdown of the year was a two-yard hookup with quarterback Caleb Williams in the fourth quarter. The strong day was great to see for Odunze, who went quiet after scoring five times in the first four games of 2025. Consistency has not been Odunze's strong suit in his sophomore season, but he still leads Chicago in catches (37), receiving yards (559), and receiving touchdowns (six) through 10 weeks. The former first-rounder should be in all fantasy lineups in a potential Week 11 shootout against Minnesota.

Tez Johnson Nov 9 10:40pm ET
Tez Johnson

Tampa Bay Buccaneers rookie wide receiver Tez Johnson continues to see his role grow in his first year in the NFL, with Mike Evans (collarbone), Chris Godwin (leg), and Jalen McMillan (neck) injured. The Buccaneers fell short coming out of their bye in a 28-23 defeat to the visiting New England Patriots on Sunday in Week 10, but it wasn't because of Johnson's efforts. The 23-year-old first-year wideout caught four of his five targets on the day for 42 yards and two touchdowns. He averaged a healthy 10.5 yards per catch and now has four touchdowns in his first eight NFL games. In fact, Johnson has scored all four of his TDs in his last four games. He has had at least five targets in the last three games as he and fellow rookie Emeka Egbuka lead Tampa's banged-up receiving corps. Evans and McMillan may not return this year, and Godwin is unlikely to be back in Week 11 against the Bills, so Johnson will be firmly in the WR4/flex mix in fantasy yet again next weekend.

George Kittle Nov 9 10:30pm ET
George Kittle

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle suffered a hamstring injury in the season opener and landed on Injured Reserve, so it's been a frustrating season for his fantasy managers. However, Kittle showed on Sunday why he's still a high-end fantasy TE when he's healthy. In the team's 42-26 loss to the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in Week 10, he led the team by catching all nine of his targets for a season-high 84 receiving yards and his third touchdown of the season. Kittle's nine targets were tied for second on the team, and his nine catches and 84 receiving yards led the 49ers. The 32-year-old veteran's touchdown was a nifty show of athleticism as he tiptoed the sideline and dove for the pile-on. Kittle also made a highlight-reel catch earlier in the game where he laid out with full extension to make the grab. He had more yards on Sunday than he did in his previous three games, and he could be starting to heat up just in time for quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) to potentially return in Week 11 against the Cardinals.

Jacoby Brissett Nov 9 10:20pm ET
Jacoby Brissett

The Arizona Cardinals were blown out on the road 44-22 by the division-rival Seattle Seahawks in Week 10, but veteran quarterback Jacoby Brissett was able to rack up yardage and throw two more touchdowns for fantasy managers in two-QB leagues on Sunday. Brissett finished the day 22-for-44 passing for 258 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions while adding four carries for an additional 31 yards on the ground. The 32-year-old was sacked five times for a loss of 52 yards. Seattle went up 35-0 in the first half, so all of Brissett's fantasy production on Sunday was basically in garbage time. Brissett's 258 passing yards were actually his fewest in his four starts with Kyler Murray (foot) injured, but he's now thrown eight touchdowns and only one pick in his time as Arizona's starter. He'll be in play as a QB2 again in another divisional matchup in Week 11 against the San Francisco 49ers. With Murray now on Injured Reserve, Brissett is guaranteed to make at least three more starts.
