Fantasy football Week 9 panic meter: Zay Flowers, Ashton Jeanty and more

Taking stock of the fantasy football duds after Week 8 of the NFL season. What do these performances mean for Week 9?

Week 9's fantasy football panic meter features several players with uncertain fates. Zay Flowers of the Baltimore Ravens has a panic meter score of 2/5 due to Lamar Jackson's potential season-ending UCL injury and Tyler Huntley's turf toe. The rookie Joe Fagnano is expected to handle relief duties, but his performance in Week 8 was lackluster.

Ashton Jeanty of the Las Vegas Raiders has a panic meter score of 4/5, as Mike Washington Jr. has outperformed him in recent games. Jeanty's value is largely dependent on his role in the passing game. Quinshon Judkins of the Cleveland Browns has a panic meter score of 3/5, as he has struggled to find the end zone despite out-carrying his counterpart.

Parker Washington of the Jacksonville Jaguars has a panic meter score of 2/5, with concerns about his reduced role due to Trevor Lawrence's success and the team's strong run game. Tre Tucker of the Las Vegas Raiders has a panic meter score of 3/5, with his route participation rate and snap share dipping when Jack Bech returns to the field.
