NFL Week 10 Usage Risers and Fallers: Waiver Targets

Tyler Allgeier and Colby Parkinson are the claims. Allgeier's carry share jumped from 26.9% to 55.0% over Weeks 6-9. Parkinson's target share went from 5.0% to 16.4%, and the Rams' receiver room is now bare. CeeDee Lamb's spike is real but tied to George Pickens' absence. Mike Washington Jr.'s rise in Las Vegas looks shaky.

All scoring is full PPR. Every share below compares Weeks 1-5 with Weeks 6-9.

RB risers: who to claim

• Tyler Allgeier, ARI. 26.9% to 55.0% of the carries. Snaps rose from 52 to 65 a game, scoring from 6.9 to 14.1 points per game. No news this week explains the shift, so the game stats are the whole case, and they're strong. Top RB claim.
• Woody Marks, HOU. 36.7% to 66.8%, snaps from 53 to 78. Points barely moved, 8.7 to 9.2. No news found on why. The volume is worth a roster spot; the ceiling is modest.
• Ollie Gordon II, MIA. 42.0% to 73.3%, 79 snaps a game. Points dipped from 12.0 to 10.5. No news found. Detroit held Miami to 182 yards in Week 9, so this is volume in a weak offense.
• Mike Washington Jr., LV. 17.6% to 49.0%, the biggest gain in this group. But he scored 4.2 points per game in both windows and ran 6 times for -3 yards in Week 9, when the Raiders ran for 24 yards. No news explains why he is eating into Ashton Jeanty's work. Stash only.
• Rachaad White, WAS (23.0% to 40.1%, 12.9 points per game) and Kimani Vidal, LAC (10.7% to 29.0%) are deeper adds. No news found on either.
• Tony Pollard, TEN (63.7% to 80.3%, 24.3 points per game) and D'Andre Swift, CHI (44.0% to 63.4%, 18.3) are starters, not waiver adds. No news found on either; the volume says play them.

Two backfields off this chart: in Dallas, Tyler Goodson took 12 carries for 77 yards next to Javonte Williams, a real secondary role. In New York, Cam Skattebo and Tyrone Tracy Jr. were both out, Devin Singletary led a thin backfield, and the Giants ran at 2.6 yards per carry. Goodson is the better claim; Singletary only until Skattebo or Tracy returns.

WR and TE target movers

• Colby Parkinson, LAR. Davante Adams ruptured his hamstring in Week 6 and can't return before Week 13. Now Puka Nacua hurt his knee on the final snap of Week 9, and the Rams expect to place him on IR with MCL and PCL sprains plus turf toe. Nacua had 19 targets (46% share) in that game. Those looks go somewhere, and Parkinson already rose from 1.6 to 9.7 points per game. The Rams host ARI in Week 10, then have the Week 11 bye. A trade for a receiver is the risk. He's the top TE claim.
• CeeDee Lamb, DAL. 27.3% to 41.5%. In Week 9 he drew 16 targets (47% share) with Pickens sidelined. Start him, but expect the share to settle back when Pickens returns.
• Kyle Pitts, ATL. 11.3% to 19.3%, scoring 5.4 to 11.0. Drake London drew only 5 targets in Week 9 and is no longer a sure WR1. Pitts is a start.
• Colston Loveland, CHI. 14.2% to 26.3%, from 4.8 to 14.8 points per game, on 88% of snaps. No news found on why. The role looks set.
• Matthew Golden, GB. 24.0% to 32.9%. He went 10-164 for 32.4 points in Week 9, a career high, as Patriots turnovers kept giving Green Bay the ball. The share holds; that yardage won't every week.

The fallers:

• Nico Collins, HOU. 26.3% to 14.8%, scoring from 20.9 to 9.7. Tank Dell had 9 targets and 20.5 points in his best game in a while. Kayshon Boutte's 28.5 on 5 targets isn't repeatable; Dell is the real threat. Collins is a WR2 for now.
• Mark Andrews, BAL. 22.8% to 12.4%, 3.8 points per game. Lamar Jackson is on IR, Tyler Huntley is out for the season, and rookie Joe Fagnano's two starts produced 20 points. Bench him.
• Garrett Wilson, NYJ. 30.1% to 23.2%. He missed Week 9, and the Jets couldn't finish drives without him. Health, not role, is the question. Hold.
• Isaiah Likely, NYG. 29.8% to 20.9%, still 14.5 points per game. J.J. McCarthy started, but Jameis Winston was in by Q3 and threw Likely the go-ahead TD. The Week 10 starter is unclear. Keep starting Likely.
• Jordan Addison, MIN. 22.3% to 17.0%. Carson Wentz went 8/25 on Monday night. The QB change is covered in Kirk Cousins Returns to the Vikings.

RB fallers

• Aaron Jones, MIN. 65.0% to 32.4%, snaps from 73 to 33, scoring from 14.0 to 4.2. No news found on why. Hard to start.
• Ashton Jeanty, LV. 63.7% to 35.8%, still 13.7 points per game. No news found. Start him, with a lower floor.
• Jonathan Taylor, IND. 74.7% to 53.0%, scoring from 19.5 to 14.1. No news this week explains the drop; for the trade-deadline backdrop, see NFL Week 9 Colts Fire Sale. Still a start.
• J.K. Dobbins, DEN (53.8% to 32.3%) and MarShawn Lloyd, GB (41.2% to 24.6%, 3.0 points per game) are droppable. No news found on either.
• Bhayshul Tuten, JAX lost share, 59.1% to 44.3%, yet scored more, 12.7 to 21.2. Keep starting him. Omarion Hampton, LAC fell from 50.4% to 37.0% as Vidal rose; no news found.

Which new roles last

• Lasting: Allgeier, Marks, Gordon, Pitts, Loveland and Parkinson. Parkinson's runway runs at least to Week 13, when Adams can first return.
• Temporary: Lamb's 41.5% (Pickens), Boutte's big game, and Singletary's lead role.
• Unclear: Washington Jr. over Jeanty. Share without production; watch Week 10 before spending a high claim.

How this was computed

Game stats cover Weeks 1-9 of the 2026 season. The early window is Weeks 1-5, the recent window Weeks 6-9. Carry share is a player's carries as a percent of his team's; target share is the same for targets. Change is the recent share minus the early share, in percentage points. Snaps are per game. Points are full PPR per game in each window. Risers needed real recent volume; fallers needed a real early-season role. Byes and missed games lower a player's game count. Quarterbacks, kickers and defenses were left out.
