Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard rushed for 128 yards on 28 carries during Sunday's Week 9 win over the New England Patriots. He also caught each of his three targets for an additional 26 yards through the air. Pollard essentially had the backfield to himself on Sunday, and despite missing all three practices this week, he was able to handle a very heavy workload against New England. The 27-year-old hasn't scored a touchdown since Week 6, but his impressive efficiency, volume, and receiving skills keep him in the fantasy RB2 range for next week's clash against the Los Angeles Chargers.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. led the team in carries once again in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Washington Commanders, solidifying his role as the primary back over Devin Singletary. Tracy Jr. rushed for 66 yards on a steady 4.1 yards per carry, with a long run of 10 yards that showcased his ability to gain tough yards. Although he didn't find the end zone and caught only one pass for 3 yards, Tracy Jr.'s workload suggests he's entrenched as the starter. Finishing with 7.4 fantasy points, he may not have hit high-scoring numbers, but his consistent touches make him a solid option for fantasy managers seeking reliable volume.

Tennessee Titans quarterback Mason Rudolph completed 20 of 33 passes for 240 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception during Sunday's Week 9 win over the New England Patriots. He also took one sack and rushed for 19 yards. Rudolph wasn't perfect, but he had his first game this year with multiple passing touchdowns and has also thrown for over 200 yards three weeks in a row. With that said, Rudolph may lose his starting job if Will Levis (right shoulder) is healthy enough to play against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10.

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers provided a second-half spark in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Washington Commanders, finishing with nine receptions for 59 yards on 11 targets. After being shut out with zero receiving yards in the first half, Nabers became a reliable target in the final two quarters, helping the Giants stay competitive down the stretch. Although he averaged a modest 6.6 yards per catch with a 16-yard longest reception, his volume was crucial as the Giants tried to close the gap. Nabers ended the day with 10.4 fantasy points, showing value as a high-floor option despite missing the end zone in this outing.

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson was highly inefficient on the ground Sunday, rushing for just 16 yards on 10 carries against the Tennessee Titans. However, he was able to salvage his fantasy performance with one rushing touchdown, one receiving touchdown, five catches, and 38 receiving yards. Stevenson was responsible for both of the Patriots' touchdowns Sunday, one of which was a score as time expired in the fourth quarter to force overtime. Stevenson now has seven touchdowns this year, including four over the last two weeks. If he can continue to catch passes and score points, the 26-year-old will be a respectable RB2 option in fantasy football. He faces the Chicago Bears next week.

Washington Commanders tight end Zach Ertz took the backseat in Week 9 as he brought in his lone target for five yards. This was his lowest output of the season, and snapped a three-game streak where he topped double-digit PPR points in each outing. Fantasy managers should not be overly concerned, as the Commanders were in the lead the entire afternoon and did not need Jayden Daniels to push the ball downfield as often. The veteran tight end remains a low-end TE1 heading into Week 10 as he has averaged 7.3 targets in his past four games entering Week 9.

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert continued his excellent campaign by going 2-for-2 on attempts and a perfect 3-for-3 on extra points in their Week 9 victory over the New York Giants. Seibert's leg was not tested in this one, as his longest field goal came from 31 yards out. The 27-year-old has now made at least two field goals in every game since Week 4 and missed only two attempts in this span, both from 50+ yards out. Fantasy managers should continue to confidently start Seibert weekly, given how impressive the Washington offense has been.

Atlanta Falcons defensive end Grady Jarrett (Achilles strain) exited during Sunday's game against the Dallas Cowboys and did not return. He finished Week 9 with two tackles and one sack. Through nine games this year, he has totaled 30 tackles and 2.5 sacks. Kentavius Street and Ta'Quon Graham should earn more snaps on the defensive line for the duration of Jarrett's absence.

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones delivered his best fantasy performance of the season in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Washington Commanders, throwing for 174 yards and two touchdowns with no interceptions. Jones struggled early, going into halftime with zero passing yards, but rebounded in the second half with 20 completions on 26 attempts and an efficient 6.7 yards per attempt. Adding to his fantasy value, Jones rushed for 54 yards and scored a rushing touchdown, showcasing his dual-threat ability despite being sacked twice. Finishing with 24.36 fantasy points, Jones posted his highest output of the season, making him a bright spot in an otherwise disappointing Giants loss.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye completed 29 of 41 passes for 206 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions during Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Tennessee Titans. He also took four sacks and rushed eight times for an additional 95 yards on the ground. Furthermore, Maye coughed up two fumbles, including one that was recovered by the defense. While turnovers continued to be an issue for Maye, there was a lot to be excited about, too. Not only did he come close to 100 rushing yards, but he also led an improbable scoring drive to force overtime that was capped off by a miraculous scrambling passing touchdown. Maye's passing and rushing upside will keep him in the high-end fantasy QB2 tier for Week 10 against the Chicago Bears.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston completed 26 of his 46 passes for 235 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions while adding five carries for 27 yards in a 27-10 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. It was a much different outing for Winston than his 2024 debut last week as he struggled with his efficiency and took six sacks in the lopsided loss to LA on Sunday. All three of his picks came after halftime while his lone touchdown pass came in garbage time with 44 seconds left in the fourth quarter. The Browns will be on bye in Week 10 before a road matchup against the New Orleans Saints in Week 11.

Washington Commanders rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels went 15-for-22 for 209 yards and two scores en route to defeating the New York Giants. On the ground, Daniels added 35 yards on eight carries. He found his top wideout, Terry McLaurin, in the end zone both times. His longest pass of the day was on a 42-yard strike to Olamide Zaccheaus. The Commanders were in the lead throughout the entire afternoon and did not need their rookie QB to push the ball downfield. Despite the modest showing, fantasy managers should continue to view Daniels as a high-end QB1 heading into Week 10 when he faces the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. led the team in rushing with 53 yards in Week 9. Rodriguez tied Austin Ekeler with a team-high 11 carries. With Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) sidelined, the Commanders turned to a committee approach. However, Rodriguez emerged as the leader and saw most of the work down the stretch as the Commanders ran out the clock. The 24-year-old has spent most of the season on the practice squad, but this performance could eventually push him into the No.3 role over Jeremy McNichols, who tallied only 20 yards on eight carries. For now, Rodriguez should remain on all waiver wires.

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler tallied 42 yards and a score on 11 carries in their victory over the Giants. He also brought in three of his four targets for an additional 41 yards. This was a nice bounce-back outing for Ekeler, as he has tallied a combined 69 yards over his past two games. With Brian Robinson Jr (hamstring) sidelined, Ekeler saw a solid workload and contributed to all aspects of the game. Fantasy managers in PPR formats should continue to view the 29-year-old as a solid flex option, given his excellent pass-catching ability and consistent third-down role.

From RotoBaller

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught two of his three targets for 19 yards and two scores in Week 9. McLaurin opened the scoring by bringing in a one-yard TD reception. Later in the second quarter, McLaurin caught an 18-yard strike from Jayden Daniels to tally his second score of the afternoon. McLaurin has found the end zone six times in his past seven games. Despite his low yardage total, the Ohio State product remains Daniels' go-to option in the passing attack and should remain locked into all fantasy lineups throughout the remainder of the season.

Las Vegas Raiders left guard Cody Whitehair (ankle) exited Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals and did not return. The Raiders suffered numerous offensive line injuries in Week 9, leading to reduced protection in front of Gardner Minshew II and Alexander Mattison. Dylan Parham entered the game at right guard and Jordan Meredith shifted over to replace Whitehair at left guard.

From RotoBaller

Washington Commanders wide receiver Noah Brown led all Washington pass catchers with 60 yards in their Week 9 victory over the New York Giants. After catching the game-winning Hail Mary last weekend, Brown continued his emergence as a stable contributor in this offense. This afternoon, Brown saw a team-high six targets and brought in five of them. Since Week 2, Brown has caught at least three passes in all but one game this season. Fantasy managers in 3WR formats should view Brown as a risky flex option heading into Week 10 when he faces a tough Pittsburgh Steelers defense.

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (concussion) has been discharged from Atrium Health Carolinas Medical Center and will return to Louisiana with the rest of the team on Sunday evening. Although Olave suffered a scary-looking hit early in the first quarter of Week 9, it's refreshing to know that Olave has movement in all extremities and has been able to leave the hospital. Nevertheless, Olave, who has already suffered three concussions in his career, could face a multi-week absence as he recovers from such a serious injury. Alvin Kamara, Taysom Hill, Juwan Johnson, and Cedrick Wilson Jr. should operate as the focal points of the Saints' offense going forward.

From RotoBaller

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Harrison Bryant (ankle) exited during the second half of Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Raiders initially listed him as questionable, but he ultimately did not return. At the time of his departure, he had caught each of his two targets for 22 yards through the air. Justin Shorter will step up as the backup tight end behind Brock Bowers for the duration of Bryant's absence.

From RotoBaller

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (shoulder) has returned to the field late in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. Despite the Cowboys trailing by 14 points with just over two minutes left, Lamb has rejoined the Cooper Rush-led offense in an attempt to mount a late comeback. Fantasy managers should stay tuned for updates on Lamb's health, but the fact that he was able to return Sunday is good news for his availability in Week 10 against the Philadelphia Eagles.
