Patrick Mahomes News
Monday, November 9, 8:38 AM
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (elbow) is viewed as day-to-day after a scary-looking hit to his throwing arm had fantasy managers briefly holding their collective breath during the team's Week 9 win over the Jets. Mahomes left the field in obvious discomfort and was seen testing his elbow on the sideline, but ultimately completed the game, finishing the day with 242 passing yards and two touchdowns. While he does not appear to be in jeopardy of missing the Chiefs' Week 10 matchup with the Falcons, Mahomes' status will need to be monitored. If he is able to play without limitation, the current fantasy QB14 makes for a strong start against an Atlanta defense that allowed Joe Burrow to finish as the QB3 in Week 9 and recently traded away Pro Bowl safety Jessie Bates.

Jayden Daniels News
Friday, November 6, 8:22 PM
Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels has gotten off to a strong start this season, totaling 976 passing yards and six touchdowns through the air while adding 236 rushing yards and two scores on the ground in four and a half games played. Daniels ranks as the QB5 in fantasy with 20.1 points per game and is second among quarterbacks in rushing yards on the 10th most attempts (27). The third-year quarterback heads into a Week 9 home matchup against the Rams, fresh off his first win of the season last week over the Eagles. The Rams' defense has found its form in the three games after allowing 37 points to the Bills in Week 5, allowing only 16 points per game and ranking only behind the Buccaneers in EPA/Play. Though Myles Garrett (knee) is expected to return for this game, a big boost for the Rams, they are also dealing with a few injuries in the secondary. Daniels should be able to take advantage and put up points to match Matthew Stafford on the other side and end with a productive fantasy day. Daniels ranks as RotoBaller's QB11 for Week 9.
