Week 10 Fantasy Football Guide

Updated: Nov 9, 2025

By: Jake Weiner



We’ve hit the stretch run — Week 10 is here, and fantasy rosters are feeling every move, every setback, and every breakout performance. Injuries are continuing to shuffle depth charts, leaving fantasy managers scrambling for waiver pickups and late-week decisions. The matchups this week present fresh angles: teams fighting for playoff positioning, role changes emerging from injuries, and sleeper options starting to finally emerge. Whether you’re cruising toward the a bye or battling just to stay alive, there are plays to exploit — let’s dive into each game, the injury implications, and who you might want in (or on your bench) this week.

Denver Broncos (7‑2) @ Las Vegas Raiders (2‑6) – Thursday, 8:15 PM ET (LV +9)


Quick Take:


Denver is rolling at 7‑2, winning six straight, with a balanced run game and solid protection up front. Las Vegas, at 2‑6, remains inconsistent on both sides of the ball and has struggled to protect its QB. With Denver likely controlling tempo and dominating the trenches, the Broncos are poised to win this; HOWEVER, with this being a Thursday night game, the Broncos keep games close and underperforming against the spread, AND this being a divisional game, we like the Raiders covering 9 points.


Pick: Broncos win, but Raiders cover.

  • Nate Adkins — TE — OUT — Knee (DNP in early week practices).

New York Giants (2‑7) @ Chicago Bears (5‑3) – Sunday, 1:00 PM ET (NYG +4.5)


Quick Take:


The Giants head to Soldier Field as slight underdogs at +4.5, trying to halt a three‑game losing streak while the Bears come in at 5‑3 with momentum. The Giants’ rookie QB Jaxson Dart continues to develop, but New York has lost key playmakers (notably WR Malik Nabers for the season). The Bears, with Caleb Williams under center, have shown offensive explosions recently. Expect a lively game.


Pick: Giants cover given the underdog value but Bears their recent desperation.

Indianapolis Colts @ Atlanta Falcons – Sunday, 9:30 AM ET (IND −6.5)


Quick Take:


The Colts head into this matchup as sizable favorites (−6.5), coming off a good run and looking to bounce back after a turnover-filled loss. The Falcons are inconsistent and dealing with offensive line issues and injuries as they head overseas to Berlin. Expect the Colts to impose their will, especially in the run game and passing attack, while the Falcons may struggle to protect the quarterback.

Carolina Panthers @ New Orleans Saints – Sunday, 1:00 PM ET (CAR −5.5)



Quick Take:


Carolina is favored by 5.5, as the Panthers have been trending upward lately and their offense + defense are playing more consistently. The Saints, at 1-8, are dealing with injuries and inconsistency, especially in their backfield and offensive line. Expect the Panthers to push the pace with their ground game while exploiting some weaknesses in New Orleans’ defense.


Pick: Panthers cover the spread.



Injury Report:

Jacksonville Jaguars @ Houston Texans – Sunday, 1:00 PM ET (JAX +1)


Quick Take:



Houston enters Week 10 as a narrow 1-point home favorite, but Jacksonville’s recent resurgence and divisional motivation make this one a true toss-up. The Texans’ young offense has shown flashes, but their protection issues and uneven run game remain a concern. Expect a competitive, lower-scoring matchup where field goals and defense matter.


Pick: Jaguars pull the minor upset and win outright.

Buffalo Bills (6-2) @ Miami Dolphins (2-7) – Sunday, 1:00 PM ET (MIA +9.5)



Quick Take:



Buffalo has rediscovered balance offensively and rides into Miami as a commanding 9.5-point favorite. The Dolphins’ explosive potential remains, but inconsistency and defensive breakdowns have derailed them lately. With Josh Allen cooking and the Bills’ defense playing elite football, expect Buffalo to control both tempo and tone in this divisional matchup.


Pick: Bills win but do not cover the spread.




Injury Report:

  • Greg Rousseau — DE — QUESTIONABLE — Knee (limited practice).

Baltimore Ravens (3‑5) @ Minnesota Vikings (4-4) – Sunday, 1:00 PM ET (BAL -4)


Quick Take:


Baltimore travels to Minnesota as a slight favorite in a matchup of two explosive offenses. The Ravens lean on Lamar Jackson’s dual-threat ability and Derrick Henry’s power running, while the Vikings boast a dynamic passing game led by Justin Jefferson. Expect a high-scoring, back-and-forth affair, but Baltimore’s balanced attack and stout defensive front could tilt the outcome.


Pick: Ravens win and cover the spread



Injury Report:


Ravens:

  • Lamar Jackson — QB — QUESTIONABLE — Ankle (limited practice).

Cleveland Browns (2‑6) @ New York Jets (1‑7) – Sunday, 1:00 PM ET (CLE −2.5)



Quick Take:


The Browns get a ripe opportunity facing the Jets, who have been turnover‑prone and are dealing with quarterback uncertainty heading into this matchup. Cleveland, despite their 2‑6 record, has the more stable roster and should be able to control tempo and exploit the Jets’ deficiencies.


Pick: Browns cover the spread.

New England Patriots (7-2) @ Tampa Bay Buccaneers (6-2) – Sunday, 1:00 PM ET (NE +2.5)



Quick Take:


The Patriots travel to Tampa Bay as slight underdogs, +2.5, facing a Buccaneers team that has shown flashes but struggles with consistency on defense. New England relies on a balanced attack and opportunistic defense, but Bucky Irving’s availability could swing the ground game for Tampa. Expect a competitive, close game.


Pick: Patriots pull a mild upset and win.

  • RB Bucky  Irving — QUESTIONABLE — Knee (limited participation midweek)

Seattle Seahawks (6‑2) @ Arizona Cardinals (3-5) – Sunday, 4:05 PM ET (SEA −6.5)


Quick Take:


Seattle is coming off a strong stretch, sitting at 6‑2 with an offense that’s balanced and aggressive in the passing game. Arizona, at 3-5, has struggled to find consistency under center and has had difficulty protecting its QB. The Seahawks’ run game and efficient passing attack should control the tempo, and the Cardinals’ secondary may struggle to contain Seattle’s wideouts.


Pick: Seahawks win comfortably, cover likely.


Injury Report:

  • RB Ken Walker III — QUESTIONABLE — Ankle (Limited practice)

Los Angeles Rams (6‑2) @ San Francisco 49ers (6‑3) – Sunday, 4:05 PM ET (LAR −3.5)



Quick Take:


The Rams visit Levi’s Stadium as a 3.5‑point favorite in what shapes up as a key NFC West clash. Los Angeles (6‑2) leans on Puka Nacua's ability and Matthew Stafford’s arm, while San Francisco (6‑3) boasts one of the league’s top defenses and a balanced offense led by Brock Purdy. Expect a high-stakes, back‑and‑forth matchup, with both teams capable of explosive plays.


Pick: Rams ML; expect a tight contest.

Detroit Lions (5-3) @ Washington Commanders (3-6) – Sunday, 4:25 PM ET (DET −9)



Quick Take:


The Lions, 5-3, head to FedExField as 9‑point favorites over the 3-6 Commanders. Detroit’s offense is firing on all cylinders behind Jared Goff and Amon‑Ra St. Brown, while the ground game with Jahmyr Gibbs keeps defenses honest. Washington has been inconsistent defensively and struggles to pressure the QB. Expect Detroit to control tempo and cover the spread comfortably.


Pick: Lions win comfortably, likely covering the 9‑point spread.

Pittsburgh Steelers (5-3) @ Los Angeles Chargers (6‑3) – Sunday, 8:20 PM ET (PIT +3)



Quick Take:


The Steelers, 5-3, head to SoFi Stadium as underdogs to the 6‑3 Chargers (-3). LA has shown flashes of offensive balance with Ladd McConkey and Oronde Gadsden stepping up with Justin Herbert continuing to lead a high-powered attack. Expect a fast-paced game with both QBs capable of producing fantasy points, but the Steelers’ defense may create turnovers that could swing this close contest.


Pick: Close game; Steelers keep it competitive, but Chargers may cover at home.

Philadelphia Eagles (6‑2) @ Green Bay Packers (5-2-1) – Monday, 8:15 PM ET (PHI +2.5)



Quick Take:


The Eagles enter Lambeau as 2.5-point underdogs against the Packers. Philadelphia is led by Jalen Hurts, who continues to be a fantasy powerhouse, while Saquon Barkley adds balance on the ground. The Packers, with Jordan Love under center, have been inconsistent but will rely on their defense to try to slow the Eagles’ attack. Expect a competitive game with Philly’s offensive weapons and rushing attack controlling the tempo.


Pick: Eagles cover the spread.
