12 instant fantasy football takeaways from Week 9
After a crazy Week 9, who were the biggest winners and losers? What are the fantasy takeaways after the games?
Week 9 brought a plethora of fantasy football surprises and disappointments. Pat Bryant's return from injured reserve proved impactful for the Broncos, finishing with a 4/56/1 line. Tyler Goodson has emerged as a valuable option for the Cowboys, gaining 77 yards on 12 carries. Joe Burrow, Ja'Ja'marr Chase, and Tee Higgins continued to dominate the fantasy landscape, amassing 34 total points in a fantasy wonderland.
The Lions' offensive struggles were evident, failing to score 20 points in three consecutive weeks. Kenneth Walker and Patrick Mahomes returned to form for the Chiefs, with Walker leading the charge. Corum has maintained his touchdown production and outgained Kyren Williams over the last two games. Justice Hill could see increased passing game involvement as the Ravens' offense plays from behind.
C.J. Stroud's masterclass performance against the Chargers showcases the Texans' resurgence. In Green Bay, Christian Watson and Matthew Golden have been a dynamic duo, shattering opposing defenses. DeMario Douglas has a clear path to fantasy points in New England's passing-heavy offense. Despite a fumble on his first career NFL reception, Jordyn Tyson remains a valuable asset for the Saints, as their run game remains inefficient.
Ashton Jeanty's recent performance may warrant reevaluation, as his fantasy output has dramatically declined after a two-game sample size.
