Adrian Peterson gets 21 touches in Week 10.

Peterson carried 19 times for 68 yards and added two receptions for one yard against the Buccaneers. It was an OK performance for Peterson in a season he’s been boom or bust to some extent. He’ll look to put up more yardage and/or get in the end zone next week against the Texans.

Duke Johnson scores in Week 10 win.

Johnson rushed three times for 15 yards, also adding four receptions for 31 yards in a 28-16 victory over the Falcons. New offensive coordinator Freddie Kitchens has done a great job getting the dynamic receiving back involved, and Johnson should be an every-week FLEX option in PPR leagues when Cleveland returns from their Week 11 bye.

Nick Chubb totals 209 yards and two scores in win over the Falcons.

Chubb rushed 20 times for 176 yards and a touchdown, also adding three receptions (on three targets) for 33 yards and another score. The highlight was a franchise-record 92-yard touchdown run where Chubb got to the second level and showed his breakaway speed to bust the game open in the third quarter, and the Georgia product continues to make a legitimate case for Offensive Rookie of the Year with 627 total yards and six scores on just 100 touches heading into the bye week. Chubb will obviously be a must-start RB1 when the Browns return to face the slumping Bengals in Week 12.

Alex Smith throws one interception as the Redskins improve to 6-3.

Smith was 19/27 for 178 yards and one touchdown along with two carries for 16 yards against the Buccaneers, as he again avoided turnovers and helped his team bounce back from last week’s loss with a win. The score was in the fourth quarter to put Washington up two scores, and it came on a play where Smith bought time in the pocket before finding Josh Doctson in the end zone. Smith is a low-upside fantasy option next week against the Texans.

Ryan Grant catches one pass in Week 10.

Grant gained six yards in his return to the lineup after missing two games with an ankle injury. Dontrelle Inman appears to be the preferred No. 2 wide receiver option for the Colts right now, so Grant doesn’t need to be on fantasy rosters.

Dontrell Hilliard tosses an interception in win over the Falcons.

Hilliard threw an ill-advised trick-play pass to Baker Mayfield that was easily picked off on his only attempt of the game, and he also caught a six-yard pass. Cleveland’s No. 3 running back isn’t a recommended fantasy option behind Nick Chubb and Duke Johnson.

Baker Mayfield plays efficient football as the Browns upset the Falcons, 28-16.

Mayfield was 17/20 for 216 yards, three touchdowns, and zero interceptions, also adding six carries for 20 yards. It was an impressive showing by Mayfield, as he took what the defense gave him and spread the ball around with Cleveland playing with the lead throughout the afternoon. The first touchdown came on a scramble right to Rashard Higgins from 28 yards away, and then he connected with his running backs Nick Chubb (13 yards) and Duke Johnson (11 yards) in the red zone. New offensive coordinator Freddie Kitchens did a great job calling a balanced game (20 carries for Chubb), and that should continue after the Week 11 bye. Mayfield should be a solid streaming option the rest of the way.
