This week brings four teams on bye, along with lingering injuries impacting many fantasy lineups. Whether you need last-minute replacements or players with long-term value, these names might offer an edge.
Quarterbacks to Watch
Joe Flacco, Cincinnati Bengals (55% rostered on Sleeper)
Flacco continues to deliver like vintage wine. Despite a sore shoulder, he achieved a career high in passing yardage against the Chicago Bears in Week 9.
Even with a dodgy shoulder, Flacco hit a career high in passing yardage against the Chicago Bears in Week 9.
With the Bengals on a bye in Week 10, some managers might drop him—take advantage. His upcoming schedule looks very favorable.
Aaron Rodgers, Pittsburgh Steelers (46% rostered on Sleeper)
Rodgers remains a solid fantasy starter—not elite, but steady. His upcoming matchups make him a valuable pick for managers planning ahead.
I have mentioned Rodgers here before. He has been startable in fantasy - not incredible - but this is really for his schedule moving forward.
Final Thoughts
