    Week 10 Waiver Wire Adds For Your 2026 Fantasy Football Team

    Welcome to Week 10, where the running back position continues to be a social experiment, and the waiver wire might actually have a few answers for us. Fantasy football is a funny game. One week you're feeling great about your roster, and the next you're researching Corey Kiner's career history at 11 p.m. on a

    The NFL Numbers Game Week 8: The Stats You Need to Know

    Eight weeks into the NFL season, and almost nothing looks quite the way we imagined it back in August. Thankfully, we did get a few things right. Jahmyr Gibbs has opposing coordinators questioning their life choices, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba is putting up numbers that belong in a video game. On the other hand, Mike Gesicki

    National TE Day was Sunday, which means tight ends got their one day in the spotlight. Some made the most of it, some had other plans, and at least one performance has me asking questions. The NFL never misses an opportunity to make things weird. Nick Muse had a career day, Mason Taylor showed up,

Green Bay’s receiving corps is getting interesting, Kansas City is still trying to make things work with a depleted group, and a

    Four teams are on bye this week, which means Josh Allen and a whole lot of other fantasy-relevant players are taking the week off right when we need them most.

    The NFL Numbers Game Week 3: The Stats You Need to Know

    Apparently I've been accused of sounding like AI. Which is honestly devastating. Not because I'm offended, but because I have spent an embarrassing amount of time staring at football stats, arguing with myself about whether a 25% target share is actually interesting, and coming up with increasingly stupid puns for player names.
