Corey Grant scores on fake punt in Week 10.

The Jaguars did a fake punt in the first quarter, and Grant took it right up the middle for a 56-yard touchdown. It was Grant’s only touch of the game, but he made it count with another one of the big plays he’s had over the last two seasons. Despite his real-life contributions to the Jags, Grant is not a recommended fantasy option as the fourth option in the backfield for Jacksonville.

Ben Roethlisberger, Steelers able to avoid road upset with big second half.

Roethlisberger was 19/31 for 263 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. After an ugly first half, Big Ben got going late with touchdowns to JuJu Smith-Schuster and Vance McDonald, and he made plays—including a 32-yard pass to Antonio Brown—to set up the game-winning field goal on the final drive of the game. Despite sub-par play from Roethlisberger this season, the Steelers are 7-2 heading into a Thursday night matchup with the 6-3 Titans. Back at home, it will be as good a time as any for Ben to go off.

Chris Ivory gets two touches in Week 10.

Ivory carried once for one yard and caught one pass for -5 yards. He’s one of the best backup running backs in the NFL, but Ivory is not a fantasy option behind Leonard Fournette—and T.J. Yeldon appears to be taking more and more work in the backfield. Ivory doesn’t need to be on fantasy rosters at the moment.

Hunter Henry catches one pass against the Jaguars.

Jacksonville hasn’t been great against opposing tight ends considering they have the number one pass defense in the NFL, but LA’s tight ends couldn’t get much going in the loss. Henry gained seven yards on his lone reception in the game. The second-year tight end should bounce back with a bigger game in Week 11 against the Bills. He only has three receptions over the last two games, and the Chargers should get him more involved in the offense.

James Conner sees one carry in Week 10 win.

It went for 12 yards on a run he bounced to the outside. The rookie is just a handcuff behind Le’Veon Bell.

Mike Williams catches both targets in Week 10.

Williams gained 24 yards against the Jaguars, including a long of 20 yards. The rookie receiver appears to be getting more comfortable as he gets more playing time, and his role could grow down the stretch here. He’s not yet a recommended fantasy option, though.

JuJu Smith-Schuster keeps it going in win over the Colts.

Smith-Schuster caught five passes for 97 yards and a touchdown, which came in the third quarter from seven yards out. The best play of the day was a contested catch down the right sideline where he outmuscled the cornerback for a 44-yard gain, and Pittsburgh’s offense looked a lot better when he became a factor in the second half after they failed at getting Martavis Bryant involved early on. JuJu should remain a high-end WR2 in a good home matchup against the Titans on Thursday night.
