Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or Malik Nabers

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has gotten back on track over the last few games, and comes into Week 10 as the overall RB15 in half-PPR leagues. Across those last three games, Henry is averaging 104.0 yards and 0.7 touchdowns on 21.3 carries per game. The Minnesota Vikings, however, have been quite stout against the run for most of the season. They're ranked the 11th toughest defense against opposing backfields and limited the dynamic Detroit Lions' run game to just a total of 16 fantasy points last week. With that being said, Henry is projected as a low-end RB1 because Lamar Jackson's gravity can still account for a lot of openings on the ground.

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) had surgery on Tuesday to fix the torn ACL and meniscus in his right knee, and he "should be ready" for the start of next season, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Nabers suffered his season-ending knee injury in the Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, but he just now had surgery after doctors had to wait for the swelling in his knee to dissipate. Barring setbacks with his rehab and recovery in the offseason, the 22-year-old former first-rounder should be good to go for the start of the 2026 season next fall, although fantasy managers might have some reservations about rolling with a receiver coming off a major knee repair as a high-end WR1. Before his injury, though, Nabers had displayed his game-changing abilities with 271 yards and two scores on 18 receptions in four games. His long-term fantasy ceiling should be higher going forward now that rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart looks like the real deal.
