Fantasy Football top scorers by position: NFL 2024 week 10
If you paid any attention at all to the NFL this weekend, you can probably guess whose monster game made them the highest fantasy scorer of Week 10.
The game of the week in Week 10 had to be the Baltimore Ravens' 35-34 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. A showdown between two of the league’s best quarterbacks, with Lamar Jackson leading the Ravens to overcome the largest deficit (14 points) he‘s faced in years with 290 passing yards and four touchdowns, Joe Burrow throwing for 428 yards and four touchdowns, and then on top of that, Ja‘Marr Chase’s ridiculous three-touchdown game highlighted by a 70-yard score. So it’s no surprise that all three of those players are in the top 10, with two of them the top scorer in their position in fantasy.
Other players with huge games included Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard and (with Chris Olave sidelined) Saints receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling.
Let’s take a look at all the top fantasy scorers from NFL Week 10.
NFL Fantasy Week 10 top scorers
Fantasy Week 10 top scorers - Quarterbacks
Though the Bengals lost to the Ravens in reality, the top fantasy scorer amongst quarterbacks in Week 10 is Bengals' Joe Burrow with 33.72 points, just narrowly beating opponent Lamar Jackson who finished with 32.90 points. Just after a five-touchdown game against the Raiders in Week 9, Burrow followed up with four in Week 10 and his 428 passing yards were a season high.
Fantasy Week 10 top scorers - Running Backs
Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson outscored the rest at his position with 29.40 fantasy points. Although they lost to the Saints, Robinson put up season-high numbers with 20 carries for 116 yards and both of Atlanta’s touchdowns in the game. One of those was a beautiful 37-yard score late in the third quarter.
Fantasy Week 10 top scorers - Wide Receivers
It should come as no surprise that Bengals wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase led the WRs in fantasy scoring in Week 10 with a whopping 55.40 points, blowing every other player out of the water. If you played against someone who had Chase in their lineup and somehow won, please tell me how you did it because Chase pretty much won the game for his fantasy managers all on his own. In his best performance all season, Chase brought in 11 of 17 targets for 264 yards and three touchdowns, two of which were from 67 and 70 yards. His final score put the Bengals within a point of winning the game with just 38 second left, but a failed two-point conversion kept them behind the Ravens.
Oh...
Fantasy Week 10 top scorers - Tight Ends
Kansas City Chiefs' Travis Kelce led the tight ends in fantasy scoring in Week 10 with 20.40 points. In their 16-14 win over the Broncos on Sunday, Kelce led the team in targets and receptions, catching eight of 12 for 64 yards and a touchdown, his second of the season. That touchdown put Kelce in a tie with Tony Gonzalez for the franchise record for touchdown receptions.
Fantasy Week 10 top scorers - Kickers
Week 10‘s top kicker in fantasy was Los Angeles Rams’ rookie Joshua Karty with 19 points. Karty made both of his two field goal attempts from 38 and 21 yards, plus both extra point attempts in the Rams' overtime win against the Seattle Seahawks. This makes his second straight week of perfect accuracy.
Fantasy Week 10 top scorers - Defenses
The Philadelphia Eagles defense unsurprisingly outscored the rest of them with 20 fantasy points as they beat up on a banged-up and weak Dallas Cowboys offense. They held backup quarterback Cooper Rush to just 45 passing yards before he was replaced by Trey Lance. They finished with five takeaways, four of which were fumble recoveries and linebacker Zack Baun led the team with eight tackles and forced a critical red zone fumble.
