Aaron Rodgers on Fantasy Radar in AFC North Showdown

Friday, November 13, 2:36 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers will return from a Week 9 bye to take on the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in Week 10. When Rodgers last faced Cincinnati in Week 3, he finished as a top-10 fantasy QB with 292 passing yards, three touchdowns, and one interception. Although he'll be on the road this time, the Bengals remain a relatively favorable matchup, surrendering 229 passing yards and over 28 points per game to opposing offenses at home. Unlike most AFC North battles, this contest is expected to be high-scoring, with a projected point total of around 49.5. The Steelers have won their last few games behind a strong running game, but Rodgers will likely need to throw more in this one to keep pace with Cincinnati's high-powered offense. While the 42-year-old isn't necessarily a must-start, he profiles as a high-end QB2 with plenty of streaming appeal on Sunday night.

Deshaun Watson News

Deshaun Watson Will Start in Week 10 Over Shedeur Sanders

Wednesday, November 11, 4:13 AM

The Cleveland Browns will start quarterback Deshaun Watson in Week 10 against the Houston Texans, according to Mary Kay Cabot. Watson suffered a concussion in Week 8's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, prompting second-year quarterback Shedeur Sanders to start in Week 9. Sanders completed 19 of 31 passes for 297 yards, with two touchdowns and no interceptions, and added 28 rushing yards on 10 carries. Although the Browns lost in overtime to the New Orleans Saints, speculation around the league suggested the team would roll with Sanders for the foreseeable future. However, the Browns will continue to start Watson, who has had a bounce-back season in 2026. In eight games, he has completed 163 of 249 passes for 1,806 yards, seven touchdowns, and three interceptions, while adding 217 yards and a touchdown on the ground. Fantasy managers should still view Watson as a low-end QB2, while the rest of the offense should retain their value.
