NFL Week 9 Fantasy must-starts
In a special Halloween episode, Joe Rivera and Jacob Camenker talk about the must-starts in NFL Week 9 for fantasy football.
Sports Seriously
In addition to the running backs on bye this week, there are several other season-long starters set to miss Week 9.
The Chiefs’ Isiah Pacheco, the Bears’ D’Andre Swift and the Patriots’ Rhamondre Stevenson have all been ruled out, while the Saints’ Alvin Kamara is officially questionable, for Sunday’s games. That moves Kareem Hunt, Kyle Monangai and TreVeyon Henderson up the fantasy football rankings and makes many other sit/start decisions more difficult.
WEEK 9 BYES: Cleveland, N.Y. Jets, Philadelphia, Tampa Bay
(Rankings by Elisha Twerski, whose complete Week 9 rankings for every position will be updated up until kickoff on Sunday.)
