Typing Week 10 feels strange, but it's true -- we are hitting the home stretch of most fantasy football regular seasons! We had many COVID-19 scares but all games were played once again. Key injuries included David Johnson (concussion), David Montgomery (concussion), Justin Jackson (knee), Laviska Shenault Jr. (hamstring), Preston Williams (foot). Christian McCaffrey also seemed to suffer a rib injury on Carolina's final drive and Mike Williams was banged up after hitting his head on the game's penultimate play. Let's hit those waiver wire lightning round heading into Week 10.
This column is published early every week and then updated on a daily basis. Each day of the week will also yield more in-depth waiver wire analysis for all positions. Week 10 has these teams on bye: Chiefs, Cowboys, Falcons, and Jets.
Waiver pickups are listed in priority order (in a vacuum) and broken down by position. Players must be rostered in roughly less than 60% of Yahoo leagues and therefore will range from shallow options in standard leagues to deep options in PPR formats.
