Fantasy NFL Week 10 Start/Sits Advice & Football Strategy
Welcome Back! Big Guy Fantasy Sports is thrilled to bring you another year of the best in NFL consistency rankings and championship fantasy football strategy.
Stafford has been as consistent as they come over the past five weeks, tallying four clutch games. Over the past three weeks, San Francisco has allowed the 11th most fantasy points to opposing QBs, including five TDs and just one interception. Puca Nakua should play, but has been limited in practice this week. Even if he doesn’t suit up, that Adams guy on the other side is pretty good, and it’s a great matchup.
Rodgers guided the Steelers to a win last week over Indy, but he wasn’t great and failed to record a clutch game. It won’t be any easier on the road against a Charger defense that has recorded seven picks and is allowing the fifth fewest passing yards in the league. Rodgers’ high total for yardage is just 249 thus far.
This is one you’ll have to monitor, but James Cook hasn’t practiced all week, and it looks less likely he plays in Week 10. Even if he does, he could be limited. The Dolphins are one of four teams to allow over 1000 yards to opposing RB up to this point. I believe Davis would be a top fantasy back if he were to be given a starter’s workload. The last time he started was in 2024 and Davis totaled 152 total yards against the Jets.
Kamara actually has four clutch games in nine tries this season, which I wasn’t expecting. None of those have come in his last three tries. The Saints are a mess and are competing with the Jets and Titans for the first pick in 2026. The game script has dictated his carries in the last two games, as he’s toted the rock just 12 times combined. This wouldn’t be an issue if he were involved in the passing game, but with just three catches, that production hasn’t been there either. He’s close to being droppable in most leagues. The matchup against the Panthers isn’t terrible, but this is more about him being ineffective than anything else.
Doubs has seen at least eight targets in all but one of his last five games, and that number should rise with Tucker Kraft sidelined and the rest of the WR corps not fully healthy. He’s 5 for 8 in clutch games this season, and 3 of those have come in the last four games. The Eagles are solid against fantasy wideouts, but the targets should be there.
With Marcus Mariota at QB Samuel has recorded just one clutch game, and has failed to record one in his last three outings. Over that span he’s averaging just 5.5 yards per reception and has 67 yards with zero touchdowns. Mariota is back at the helm for an injured Jayden Daniels, so it could be tough for Deebo to get going in Week 10.
It looks as though Tampa will be without Chris Godwin for another week, so beyond Emeka Egbuka, there’s not much at WR. That should bump Otton’s production up for Week 10. He’s recorded two clutch games out of his last four and has seen 25 targets over the previous four games. The Patriots are also in the bottom third of the league in defending the tight end.
Musgrave was a big waiver claim this week, which makes sense. However, you’re going to want to sit him this week against the Eagles. He should pick up the slack with Tucker Kraft out, but the Eagles are the third stingiest against fantasy tight ends this season and have allowed just one touchdown to the position. You may want to wait a week to deploy him.
