Week 9 should be another barn-burner with just the 49ers and Steelers on bye weeks. With 15 games and 30 QBs to sort through, there are lots of options to consider for your fantasy lineups this week. The big matchup is in Green Bay between the Packers and Lions, but Jordan Love‘s status is uncertain after he suffered a groin injury vs. the Jaguars. I left Love out of my top 10 this week, but if he plays I’d put him around No. 8.
In Week 8, Jalen Hurts led the way with 35 fantasy points while no other QB had 30. Bo Nix ranked second with 29.8 fantasy points, and Matthew Stafford welcomed back his top two receivers with over 25 fantasy points as well. Also returning from injury, Tua Tagovailoa threw for 234 yards and a touchdown and fan for 13 yards as well.
Here’s how I’d rank the top 10 QBs for Week 9:
- Jalen Hurts (vs. JAC)
- Jayden Daniels (at NYG)
- Josh Allen (vs. MIA)
- Lamar Jackson (vs. DEN)
- Joe Burrow (vs. LV)
- Kirk Cousins (vs. DAL)
- Jared Goff (at GB)
- Patrick Mahomes II (vs. TB)
- Caleb Williams (at ARI)
- Matthew Stafford (at SEA)
