Fantasy managers can breathe a sigh of relief at the end of Byemaggedon. Six teams on byes made for some genuinely disgusting start-sit choices. Week 10 will be less painful with only four teams set to miss. Week 11 will have four more teams out with byes (Jacksonville, Miami, Seattle, and Tampa Bay). Plan accordingly and be a week ahead. 

This is not a great week of impactful waiver wire additions, but check your league for players not listed in this column who could have been cut last week. Take extra time to comb through your league’s list of available players because the finish line is in sight and the fantasy playoffs are just around the corner. 

The worst part of our beloved game is the frequency of injuries. It’s an unfortunate byproduct of such a fast-paced, contact-heavy sport. It’s something that is important to remember as we approach the first full week of the preseason. Luckily for the NFL players, they have access to some of the best doctors in the world and can usually return to form at least by the next season. Unfortunately for us fantasy players, it’s not always easy to know when a player will get hurt. To another degree, sometimes your roster isn’t big enough to plan ahead for an injury. This series, the Infirmary Report, will give you advice on the injuries that have happened every week during the season. Without further ado, here is the Infirmary Report: Post Week 9 of regular season action.

With Mark Andrews listed as doubtful, preseason darling Isaiah Likely will be thrust into a significant role as the team’s top tight end. If he’s able to sniff Andrew’s elite 89-percent Snap Share, he’ll make for a strong play.

Kamara has come on lately, recording top-10 RB performances in three of his last four games. Last week’s triple touchdown outburst broke the seal after being held scoreless to begin the year.

With Ezekiel Elliott sitting out the Week 8 match-up versus Chicago, Pollard exploded for 147 total yards and three touchdowns. This big day translated to a 33.7 fantasy point (RB4) finish. Pollard gains 54.22 Lifetime Value points to move 9 spots on the dynasty rankings to RB20.

Regardless of any narrative coming out of the Cowboys organization regarding future RB splits, Pollard makes for an interesting free agent this offseason. His 5.3 (No. 9) True Yards Per Carry and 6.7 (No. 3) Yards Per Touch, are substantially better than Zeke’s marks. The man of the hour has nine Breakaway Runs (No. 3). Tony Freakin’ Pollard!

After a strong start to the 2022 campaign, Courtland Sutton has gone cold of late. Sutton has not been performing like the team’s WR1, and other weapons have emerged. Over the past three weeks, Sutton has produced a total of 50 scoreless receiving yards with no red zone targets. This yardage total is lower than any single game output from Weeks 1 through 5.

The 27-year-old loses 45.7 Lifetime Value points and 18 spots to slide to WR43 in dynasty. Better days are ahead for Sutton, but this buy-low opportunity comes with volatility in the Denver Bronco’s 21st-ranked passing offense.

This is the NFC South Post-Week 8 Update! Before the 2023 NFL Season kicked off, it seemed Tampa Bay was destined to crush everyone in the division and cruise to the playoffs. Atlanta appeared destined to sink to the bottom of the standings. Clearly, many of us (myself included!) were wrong about those predictions. Below, […]

Remember last week when I hyped up Mike Gesicki and talked about how good a matchup the Lions are for tight ends? If you don’t, here’s a refresher. The Lions have conceded a touchdown and/or allowed at least 49 receiving yards to a tight end in every game except against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 3. Sure enough, Mike Gesicki found the end zone last week. Enter Robert Tonyan. Tonyan’s usage has been spotty this season, but it also has been ramping up lately.

Vegas has the total points line of this game set at 49.5. The total is tied for the highest on the Week 9 Sunday slate. This means the books expect offense. It is no surprise that since the departure of Davante Adams, the No. 1 option in this Packers attack has been Aaron Jones. What’s been slightly difficult to project is how much of his involvement is split between rushing and receiving. While he has cleared this rushing number only three times this season, everything points to the value in the over in Week 9.

The Cardinals’ weakness on defense is yards after catch (they allow the most in the NFL). Meanwhile, Lockett is No. 55 in Yards After Catch with 83 and averaging 1.4 per target.

Marshall’s snaps, routes run, and targets have gone up each week, culminating in a 9-target Week 8 performance where he finished with 12.7 (No. 29) fantasy points. In Week 7, Carter had a 94-percent Snap Share, saw 7 targets, and finished with over 70 Air Yards.

We are about halfway through the 2022 NFL season. Now it’s time to check in on how the teams in the AFC South are doing. This article will provide you with all you need to know about how the first four weeks went for the AFC South. Also, I will take a look at how my predictions for the season are stacking up so far as well as provide a few more predictions. Since Week 4 the division has shaped itself up much better, and it’s clear what kind of teams these AFC South teams are. The Jags surprise was fun while it lasted, Matty Ice has melted, Derrick Henry is Derrick Henry, and Davis Mills is unfortunately not taking that step forward. Without further ado, let’s take a look at these teams- this is the Post Week 8 AFC South Report!

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are the new speed kings of the NFL. It’s been a steady climb for them in reaching a 2.250 pace of play mark. Back in Week 1, they were at 1.834, which was good for No. 27 among all NFL teams. Moving forward, this should be good news for all of their pass-catching weapons. The Buccaneers lead the NFL with a 2.17 pass-to-run ratio. Even with Leonard Fournette struggling to run the ball, his receiving role ensures he will remain fantasy viable.
