Fantasy Football: Top 10 waiver wire pickups for Week 10

Fantasy Football: Top 10 waiver wire pickups for Week 10
ClutchPoints ClutchPoints

We are nine full weeks into the 2025 NFL season, and with that, you are eight weeks into your fantasy football season. Injuries have ravaged the fantasy football landscape so far, but you can catch back up to your leaguemates – or stay ahead of them – with these Week 10 waiver wire pickups.

Injuries continue to rock your lineups, as Jayden Daniels and Tucker Kraft were likely both lost for the rest of the year. Losing two key players at two key positions is a tough thing to rebound from, but Week 10 prep is a great time to pick up the pieces and move forward.

The following list (except for one) includes players that are rostered on fewer than 50 percent of all ESPN rosters, making the chances you can pick them up pretty high. Heading into Week 9, try your best to button up the edges of your roster as you look to start the season strong

Week 10 Waiver Wire Pickups

1. RB Trey Benson, Arizona Cardinals
49.1% Rostered

With James Conner out for the rest of the year and the offense now relying on Bam Knight as their RB1, the Arizona Cardinals will likely look to feed Trey Benson a heavy dose of carries when he returns from the injury reserve. Having suffered a knee injury in Week 4, Benson has missed every game since, but has been ramping up for his return.

This addition is more so for planning ahead, as he is not expected to return in Week 10, but in order to stand out among your league-mates, targeting Benson a week early can give you an advantage.

2. RB Tyjae Spears, Tennessee Titans
43.9% Rostered

The Tony Pollard experiment for the Tennessee Titans has not been off to a strong start this year, and the return of Tyjae Spears from injury has given this backfield a nice injection of talent. Spears is the more explosive option of the two and is better suited in the passing game, having recorded three-plus receptions in each of his past four games.

With TEN facing more passing scripts, often playing from behind, Spears has a safer floor than most running backs available for your Week 10 waiver wire pickups.

3. WR Troy Franklin, Denver Broncos
51.9% Rostered

There may have been a changing of the guard for the Denver Broncos at wide receiver, as Troy Franklin has slowly been cutting more and more into Courtland Sutton’s WR1 role. Franklin has earned at least six targets in six games this year, including 28 targets over the past three weeks.

Is there a new WR1 in Denver?

– Courtland Sutton: 62 targets, 38 rec, 566 yards, 4 TD, 804 air yards, 3 end zone targets

– Troy Franklin: 64 targets, 37 rec, 385 yards, 4 TD, 811 air yards, 6 end zone targets

Franklin leads in target/air yard share and end zone targets
