Fantasy Life Show

📋 Week 9 is here. We’re breaking down fantasy football rankings, the smash spots and crash spots at every position, hitting the injuries that could wreck your lineup, and going rapid-fire on the start/sit calls you’re still sweating. Kendall and Pete go through the top 12 quarterbacks, top 24 running backs, top 24 receivers and top 12 tight ends, then get into the spots that actually decide your week — Brock Purdy in a smash spot with Bryce Young in a crash spot, Quinshon Judkins and Chase Brown at running back with a warning on Tyler Allgeier, Nico Collins plus both Justin Jefferson and Jordan Addison at receiver with Tetairoa McMillan on the other side, and both sides of tight end with Greg Dulcich smashing and Dalton Kincaid crashing. Then the Week 9 injury report, which is really a quarterback report. Sam Darnold is out with a quad injury, so is Drew Lock a downgrade for Seattle or basically neutral? Deshaun Watson is in concussion protocol, which means figuring out how the young Browns pass catchers do with Shedeur Sanders. Breece Hall is expected back while Garrett Wilson enters concussion protocol, so how do you approach the Jets against Kansas City? And Cam Skattebo is day-to-day, which raises whether Devin Singletary becomes a must-start. Then a rapid-fire start/sit round on Drew Lock, Ashton Jeanty, Rachaad White, Keenan Allen, Omar Cooper and Eli Raridon, and they close by building a DFS lineup together for the week. 🔍 Topics in this video: fantasy football start or sit this week for week 9, fantasy football rankings, fantasy rankings changes, week 9 injury report, week 9 fantasy smash spots, week 9 fantasy crash spots, week 9 QB rankings, Week 9 RB rankings, Week 9 WR rankings, Week 9 TE rankings, Week 9 NFL DFS lineup building, Brock Purdy, Bryce Young, Quinshon Judkins, Chase Brown, Tyler Allgeier, Nico Collins, Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, Tetairoa McMillan, Greg Dulcich, Dalton Kincaid, Sam Darnold, Drew Lock, Deshaun Watson, Shedeur Sanders, Breece Hall, Garrett Wilson, Cam Skattebo, Devin Singletary, Ashton Jeanty, Rachaad White, Keenan Allen, Omar Cooper, Eli Raridon Learn more about your ad choices.
