Being able to find fantasy points on the waiver wire is key to navigating injuries and bye weeks. Luckily, there are several options available this week to boost your team’s fantasy output.
This article will focus on players who are available in at least 50% of Yahoo leagues, as well as some deep sleepers who are listed in less than 20% of leagues. Without further ado, here are Week 10’s best streaming options at each position.

Week 10 Quarterback Streaming Options
Jacoby Brissett, Arizona Cardinals at Seattle Seahawks (14% on list)
Jacoby Brissett has made three starts for the Arizona Cardinals without Kyler Murray, completing 65.8% of his passes for 860 yards, six touchdowns and one interception. Brissett has been the QB10 in fantasy since he took over, averaging 22.1 points per game.
Brissett was a top 10 quarterback in yards per attempt (7.7) this season, and his fantasy effectiveness is largely determined by his willingness to attack defenses downfield. He ranks second among quarterbacks in deep ball completion percentage (50%) and deep ball success rate (57.1%).
The Seahawks aren’t an ideal fit for quarterbacks this season, but Brissett is playing at a high enough level to justify the risk.
Deep Sleeper: Davis Mills, Houston Texans vs Jacksonville Jaguars (1% selected)
Houston has already ruled out CJ Stroud for Week 10, clearing the way for Davis Mills to make his first start since 2023.
In the first two seasons of his career, Mills completed 63.6% of his passes for 5,782 yards, 33 touchdowns and 25 interceptions while making 26 starts for the Texans. Mills struggles with decision-making and taking sacks, but he has respectable weapons in Week 10.
Jacksonville has allowed the 11th-most passing yards (2,063) and fourth-most passing touchdowns (19) in the NFL despite playing just eight games this season.
Honorable Mention: JJ McCarthy, Minnesota Vikings vs. Baltimore Ravens (48% selected)
In Week 9, JJ McCarthy provided plenty of good and bad, both in real life and in fantasy football. McCarthy completed just 56% of his passes for 143 yards, two touchdowns and an interception. But he added nine carries for 12 yards and a touchdown. That was enough to score 19.9 fantasy points and secure a QB13 finish.
McCarthy has started three games this season and scored over 19.0 fantasy points in two of them. He will continue to go through growing pains this season, but having Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison and TJ Hockenson at his disposal in the passing game will help ease that for the fantasy side.
JJ McCarthy Profile for advanced statistics and statistics
The Ravens defense has improved since the bye week, allowing just 16 points to the Chicago Bears and six points to the Miami Dolphins over the past two weeks. However, it’s hard to tell if the defense is playing THAT much better or if they just ran into two inconsistent offenses in the last two weeks.
Even with these two strong performances, Baltimore is allowing 19.0 fantasy points to quarterbacks with 14 touchdowns and three interceptions this season. McCarthy has a chance to capitalize.
Review of streaming options week 10
Devin Singletary, New York Giants at Chicago Bears (19% selected)
Week 9 was the first game for the New York Giants without Cam Skattebo. Tyrone Tracy Jr. was the popular fantasy waiver option, but it was Devin Singletary who had the stronger performance in the box score.
Singletary led the backfield in snap share (56.1%), although that’s partly because Tracy was confused during the game. The veteran running back also paced the backfield in carries (eight) and yards (43). More importantly, there was a clearly divided backfield, with Singletary handling the early downs work and Tracy working more as a pass catcher.
The Giants’ Week 10 opponent, the Chicago Bears, has struggled with running backs this season. Their offense has also struggled with consistency this year, which could lead to a more neutral or positive game script for New York. Singletary has a chance to have a fantasy-relevant week if the Giants can keep pace with the Bears on the scoreboard.
Honorable Mention: Emari Demercado, Arizona Cardinals at Seattle Seahawks (18% selected)
Trey Benson isn’t ready to return from injured reserve yet, so the Cardinals will run a split backfield again in Week 10. The split went in favor of Emari Demercado in Week 9, when the veteran running back handled 14 carries for 79 yards (5.6 yards per carry) against the Cowboys.
Emari Demercado Advanced Stats and Stats Profile
His matchup in Week 10 (Seattle) will be much tougher, but Demercado has a chance to have more impact as a pass catcher in a negative game script. He caught two targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in his first game against Seattle in Week 4.
Streaming Options for Wide Receivers Week 10
Christian Watson, Green Bay Packers vs. Philadelphia Eagles (29% selected)
Christian Watson returned from injured reserve in Week 8 and immediately played a role in Green Bay’s passing attack. Through two games, Watson has earned eight goals and caught four passes for 143 yards. He is averaging 23.8 yards per reception on his eight targets.
Christian Watson Advanced Stats and Stats Profile
Watson enters Week 10 surrounded by a banged-up pass-catching corps in Green Bay. Tucker Kraft is out for the season. Matthew Golden suffered a shoulder injury in Week 9 and has struggled with consistency this season. Jayden Reed is still not here. Dontayvion Wicks returned to training in week 10, but is dealing with a calf injury. The Packers need Watson to contribute Monday night.
The Eagles aren’t a great fit for wide receivers this season, but Watson is the type of player who doesn’t need a lot of volume to have a big fantasy week. Conversely, if he fails to accomplish any of his goals on the field, he could also give a zero to fantasy managers. Expect Watson to get opportunities in this match given the injuries surrounding him, and hope he converts on one or two of those targets to have a great week.
Deep Sleeper: Olamide Zaccheaus, Chicago Bears vs New York Giants (3% selected)
Olamide Zaccheaus was a regular presence in Chicago’s passing attack, operating primarily from the slot. Over the past two weeks, that role has led to consistent fantasy production.
In Weeks 8 and 9, Zaccheaus caught 13 of 15 targets for 91 yards and a touchdown. He scored at least 10.0 fantasy points in two consecutive weeks and finished as the WR14 in Week 9 (17.8 points).
His Week 10 opponent, the New York Giants, has struggled with slot receivers this season, allowing the fifth-most yards (727) this year to slot receivers. They have also allowed the 10th most targets on receivers in the 20 this season (13). Hopefully Zacheaus can take advantage of this weakness with another solid performance.
Tight End Week 10 Streaming Options
Cade Otton, Tampa Bay Buccaneers vs. New England Patriots (35% on list)
From Weeks 5 through 8, Cade Otton averaged 6.3 targets, 5.0 receptions, and 59.3 receiving yards per game. During that time, he was the TE16 in PPR points per game, and he had three straight weeks with at least 10.0 fantasy points.
The Patriots are an exploitable defense against tight ends. They have allowed the seventh-most targets (70), ninth-most receptions (52), seventh-most receiving yards (572) and twelfth-most touchdowns (four) to tight ends this season. Otton isn’t a particularly dynamic weapon, but he will earn targets for a Buccaneers pass that is missing key pieces.
Deep Sleeper: Isaiah likely, Baltimore Ravens at Minnesota Vikings (6% selected)
The Baltimore Ravens made more of an effort to include Isaiah Likely in Week 9, probably running the fourth-most routes (13) on the team, one fewer than Mark Andrews. Probably finished second on the team in targets (four) and receiving yards (60). He also led the team in closing rate (76.9%).
Isaiah probably advanced profile for statistics and statistics
The Minnesota Vikings have allowed the ninth-most fantasy points per game to tight ends this season (9.1). With increased usage, there’s a chance that this week will probably have a useful outing.
