We’re officially past the halfway point of the 2024 NFL season and that also means we’re just a few weeks away from the fantasy football playoffs. With the season moving quickly and start-sit decisions more important than ever, our Week 9 fantasy rankings will take you through setting your lineups for this week.
As always, we must be aware of bye weeks. The San Francisco 49ers and Pittsburgh Steelers are off this week, meaning the likes of Jordan Mason, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, George Pickens and Najee Harris aren’t available. We’ll also be keeping an eye on the NFL injury report, noting any key players that are uncertain to take the field.
