Rams receiver Puka Nacua and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes top the list of star performers in both the real-life and fantasy football worlds who suffered injuries Sunday and whose Week 10 prognosis is uncertain as of Monday morning. Packers running back Josh Jacobs and Bears wideout Luther Burden III also suffered injuries that could put their NFL clubs and fantasy managers in a bind.
Below, we will give some recommended waiver wire acquisitions heading into Week 10 of the 2026 NFL season. Many leagues use the Free Agency Acquisition Budget (FAAB) to bid on players, and because this is the more standard practice in competitive leagues, we will give our recommendations based on FAAB suggestions. We will also address those who use waiver priority settings.
Our advice will cater to full PPR settings, along with 4 points per passing touchdown. Our advice also caters primarily to competitive, deep leagues that feature 12 to 14 teams with standard to deep benches. For those who use different settings, these suggestions should transfer somewhat laterally, but adjust your rankings as you see fit according to your league's criteria.
Suggested players must have a roster share of 65% or less in CBS leagues as of Monday morning to qualify for this piece. All roster percentages will be listed alongside the players.
