Fantasy Football's Big Questions for Week 10

Let's talk about some key players and their situations heading into Week 10 of the fantasy football season. First up, Rico Dowdle has been a standout performer for the Carolina Panthers. He's been a top fantasy running back, ranking third in the league in rushing yards despite starting only three games. However, his quad injury is a concern, and his status for Week 10 is uncertain. If he plays, he could be a top-five fantasy back, but health is a significant factor. In Arizona, Kyler Murray's injury has led to Jacoby Brissett taking over as the starting quarterback. Brissett has shown promise, and players like Trey McBride and Marvin Harrison have benefited from the change. McBride has caught nearly as many touchdowns from Brissett as he did from Murray, and Harrison has seen a significant increase in his production. The Cardinals' tough schedule ahead could impact their performance, but the quarterback swap has been a positive so far. The Chicago Bears' backfield is another area of interest. Kyle Monangai had a breakout performance last week, but D'Andre Swift is expected to return, which could lead to a committee situation. Both players could see significant snaps, but the lack of clarity makes it risky for fantasy managers. In Jacksonville, Brian Thomas Jr. has been a disappointment, and his status for Week 10 is in question due to an ankle injury. Parker Washington has stepped up in his absence, and the addition of Jakobi Meyers could shake up the wide receiver corps. The Jaguars have been productive in the passing game, so there's potential for someone to emerge as a reliable fantasy option. The Seattle Seahawks' backfield is also worth watching. Kenneth Walker has taken over the goal-line role, which is crucial for his fantasy value. Zach Charbonnet's role remains uncertain, but Walker's explosiveness makes him a valuable player. The addition of Rashid Shaheed could also impact the passing game, as he benefits from playing with Sam Darnold. Buffalo Bills' running back James Cook is dealing with ankle and foot injuries, and his status for Week 10 is uncertain. Ray Davis and Ty Johnson could see increased roles if Cook sits out. The Bills' backfield could become a committee, which is less than ideal for fantasy managers. Garrett Wilson's return to the Jets is a possibility for Week 10. He's been a top fantasy wide receiver when healthy and could see significant targets against the Cleveland Browns. His return would be a boost for the Jets' offense. The Los Angeles Rams' backfield has seen a rotation between Kyren Williams and Blake Corum. Williams has maintained a high snap share, but Corum has seen more carries. The Rams' passing game has been dominant, so Williams could see more goal-line opportunities. Puka Nacua's health is a concern for the Los Angeles Rams. He's been a top fantasy wide receiver despite missing some games due to injury. His tough playing style makes him prone to injuries, but he's expected to play in Week 10. Quinshon Judkins' performance has been impressive, and he could be a top fantasy running back in Week 10. His dual-threat ability makes him a valuable player, and his production has been consistent.
