Overview
- Lamar Jackson is set to play Thursday night at the Dolphins, immediately re-entering QB1 territory for Week 9 lineups.
- With Jalen Hurts and Baker Mayfield on bye, recommended streamers include Daniel Jones at the Steelers and Sam Darnold at Washington, while Kyler Murray is a favorable play if he suits up at Dallas.
- Giants rookie Cam Skattebo is out for the season with an ankle injury, elevating Tyrone Tracy Jr. to lead-back usage with Devin Singletary in support, as waiver interest also spikes in Zonovan Knight and Kareem Hunt.
- Nico Collins remains concussion-limited and is a recommended sit against Denver’s pressure-heavy defense, which also downgrades C.J. Stroud this week.
- SportsLine’s model posts contrarian calls by fading Tee Higgins against Chicago and boosting Chargers tight end Oronde Gadsden II into must-start territory versus Tennessee.
