Below, you’ll find 2023 Week 10 fantasy rankings for points per reception (PPR) and half-PPR leagues. There are 28 ranked quarterbacks, 47 running backs, 57 wide receivers and 22 tight ends.

Midway through the season, here are 10 coordinators (five offensive, five defensive) who’ve helped their chances at earning a promotion in 2024 the most. Who knows? One of them might just be your team’s next head coach. Cincinnati Bengals defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo Cincy’s defense always seems to show up for big games. Following a

The Detroit Lions bye week is officially over. They held their first practice on Tuesday ahead of their return game against the Los Angeles Chargers. With that comes our first practice report of the week.  Frist off, the good stuff. David Montgomery, Jonah Jackson and Frank Ragnow all returned to practice on Tuesday. That’s a

The Detroit Lions have a problem that’s really been hurting them lately and that’s scoring in the red zone. How bad has it been? The Lions are currently 21st in the NFL in red zone scoring percentage. They score on just 48% of their trips to the red zone. That’s just not great at all. What’s worse

Detroit Lions safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson suffered a torn pectoral in Week 2 against the Seahawks. It’s a lengthy injury and has given Gardner-Johnson a lot of free time outside of the time he’s been training to get back.  This has allowed him to focus on his rap career and do something that a lot people

Detroit Lions rookie Jahmyr Gibbs has shown up big in the the absence of David Montgomery. He’s racked up 315 total yards and two touchdowns in the last two games and had really shown what he can do. So with David Montgomery likely coming back this week, what does that do to Gibbs?  Lions Head

The push for greater scale in the athlete representation business is intensifying with Excel Sports Management’s acquisition of REP 1 Football — a move that expands the agency’s presence among NFL players.  Before the long-rumored deal, Excel had been active in promotion and sponsorships with NFL players such as San Diego Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert

The Detroit Lions were on a bye week last week. That’s why it was a little strange that on Thursday they did a practice squad elevation out of nowhere. The team signed undrafted rookie linebacker Trevor Nowaske to their 53-man roster. We now know why they made that move, it’s because he was about to

The Detroit Lions really needed that bye week to get over some big injuries. The Lions went into that Monday night win over the Raiders without starting running back David Montgomery, starting guard Jonah Jackson and starting center Frank Ragnow. The first two have missed multiple games.  The Lions are now back from the bye

The New York Jets will take on the Los Angeles Chargers on “Monday Night Football” to close out the Week 9 slate, and both teams need a win to keep pace in the AFC wild-card battle. New York will be gunning for its fourth straight win to improve to 5-3, while L.A. needs a victory

Late last month, former Tennessee Vols quarterback Hendon Hooker made it clear that he’s not a fan of UT wearing black cleats with their all-white road uniforms.  “Whoever is picking the black socks and cleats is crazy,” wrote Hooker in an Instagram comment under a post announcing the Vols’ uniform combination for the Kentucky game. 

The Detroit Lions have been one of the NFL’s most pleasant surprises over the first half of the 2023 campaign, as they have own the league’s second-best record at 6-2. With the Lions on the come-up, they could end up being a big player in free agency this coming offseason, especially given the fact that

The Detroit Lions didn’t do a ton at the NFL trade deadline like some thought they would do. They kept it conservative and went  out and got a receiver they felt could really help them in former Michigan standout Donovan Peoples-Jones.  In my opinion, and I’ve documented that opinion, Peoples-Jones is a very underrated addition

St. Brown is also turning heads in the locker room, garnering wild comparisons from his quarterback. “The way that he is, in the weight room and on the field are very similar to my experience with Aaron Donald,” Goff told Eric Woodyard of ESPN. “Like, it is business, business, business. He works harder than everybody.” 

The Detroit Lions are on a bye week, but the business is still moving. Since the Lions win on Monday, the  Lions have done a few things of note. One of them was trading a sixth round pick to the Cleveland Browns for Donovan Peoples-Jones before the trade deadline on Tuesday.  The Lions sent long-snapper

It’s hard to believe that going into Week 4’s Thursday night football game, the Green Bay Packers and Detroit Lions seemed to be on similar footing. Both were 2-1, and both had overcome close Week 2 losses and had won in Week 3. But since September 28th’s 34-20 drubbing by Detroit, the franchises now seem
