Which wide receivers will shine in Week 10 for your fantasy football teams? We’ll take a look at all of them in our PPR rankings.
Is it already Week 10 of the NFL season? How is that possible? Time, well, I dunno. I guess “just keep swimming” as that one lady fish says. Unfortunately the swimming continue to get tougher each week as all our fantasy wide receivers continue to get hurt! This week we managed to avoid season ending injuries as long as Chris Olave isn’t sat due to his numerous concussions. We did lose a lot of top receivers in-game though and that hurt plenty of fantasy rosters, as AJ Brown, Drake London, CeeDee Lamb and Olave all missed time.
We did have six receivers each snag two touchdowns in their respective games this week, as Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Garrett Wilson, Zay Flowers, DeAndre Hopkins, Terry McLaurin and Demarcus Robinson all found themselves inside the end zone with the ball in their hands twice.
Week 10 wide receiver bye weeks
Cedric Tillman, Elijah Moore, Jerry Jeudy, Jayden Reed, Romeo Doubs, Christian Watson, Dontayvion Wicks, Jakobi Meyers, Tre Tucker, DK Metcalf, Tyler Locket, Jaxon Smith-Njigba
Week 10 wide receiver injuries
Drake London, Falcons
London has a hip-pointer and is day-to-day. That’s good news after he was ruled out of last weeks game. This week he’ll have a good matchup with the Saints as long as he’s a full go.
Chris Olave, Saints
Olave suffered yet another concussion last week, his fifth documented. I’d expect them to rule him out this week due to the multiple brain injuries, but nothing has been reported of yet. He could end up on I.R. much ike Tua Tagovailoa as well. There unfortunately aren’t many good receivers left on the Saints, so expect the tight ends and Alvin Kamara to continue to be a big part of the offense.
AJ Brown, Eagles
Brown is day-to-day after getting a clean MRI on his knee We’ll see how much, if any practice time he misses, but he appears to be okay to play this week against the Cowboys.
CeeDee Lamb, Cowboys
Lamb has a shoulder injury that could keep him out this week, but it doesn’t sound like a significant injury at this point. Lamb has a good track record of being able to stay on the field, so there is a chance he’s able to go this week.
Amari Cooper, Bills
Cooper missed last week’s game with a wrist injury, but it sounds like he’ll have a better shot to play this week against the Colts.
Keon Coleman, Bills
Coleman injured his wrist late in their win over the Dolphins in Week 9. He’s going to have more tests, so there appears to be some concern as to the prognosis, but we’ll need to wait to see.
Tee Higgins, Bengals
Higgins continues to deal with a quad injury and was listed as not practicing on the Bengals estimated Monday practice ahead of a Thursday night game against the Ravens. He’ll need to get out there soon to have a chance to play. If he does, this is a great matchup. If not, Mike Gesicki looks to get the biggest boost.
DK Metcalf, Seahawks
Metcalf gets the bye week to rest his knee and reportedly will be able to return in Week 11 in an important matchup with the 49ers.
Jameson Williams, Lions
Williams has be reinstated and will play this week after his two game suspension. He also could have some legal trouble with a gun found in his vehicle, but there is much that is unclear with that situation at this point. There’s no reason to believe he will miss this week’s game against the Texans.
Mike Evans, Buccaneers
The Buccaneers have a bye next week, which should give Evans an extra week to get as close to 100% as possible with his hamstring injury. I wouldn’t expect a return for Week 10.
Week 10 wide receiver sleepers
Khalil Shakir, Bills vs. Colts
Shakir has kept his fantasy numbers down with a lack of touchdowns, but he’s been accumulating big target numbers over the last three games. IN those three contests, Shakir caught 22-of-24 targets for 222 yards. The Colts rank 24th in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers so far this season and Keon Coleman and Amari Cooper are dealing with injuries going into this week.
Tank Dell, Texans vs. Lions
The Texans are underdogs at home this week and might get Nico Collins back. The Lions have been playing extremely well, but they’ve also allowed the sixth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. I like Dell this week if Collins plays and if he doesn’t. Collins’ presence would help free up Dell, while his absence would concentrate targets his way. And with the Lions likely getting a lead in this game, I expect the Texans will need to throw more than they’d like.
