The Miami Dolphins will face the Los Angeles Rams in Week 10. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding RB Jaylen Wright.

Should You Start or Sit Jaylen Wright in Week 10?
Whether or not the Dolphins will extend their talented rookie as this season progresses is something to watch, but in terms of what we can project with confidence, there’s no way to justify considering him anything more than a low-end lineup stash.
Jaylen Wright played just 15% of the snaps last week and, even with various injuries to the skill position players in Miami, hasn’t reached a 34% snap share in six of seven games. His ceiling through nine weeks is RB34, and ranking him inside the top 40 is a leap of faith, let alone putting him near the Flex conversation.

PFN Insights on Los Angeles Rams’ Defense
Things are coming together nicely for the Los Angeles Rams. Their offense is back at close to full strength, and their defense appears to have found a method that works. Since their Week 6 bye, this unit has been in the top 12 all three weeks, continuing an encouraging pre-bye trend.
After starting the season in the bottom 10 for the first three weeks, they have dragged themselves up to performing above average on a weekly basis and around league average overall. The driving force behind that recovery has been their ability to not only get pressure without sending extra men but also to get sacks. Pair that with a good red-zone efficiency, and this defense is proving a useful complement to their recovering offense.

Miami Dolphins at Los Angeles Rams Insights
Miami Dolphins
Team: Miami’s offensive 51.9% offensive success rate over the past two weeks (Weeks 1-7: 36.7%).
QB: Since returning, Tua Tagovailoa has completed 46-of-57 passes when not pressured (80.7%).
Offense: Miami is being blitzed on only 13.9% of dropbacks. The Bengals at 17% are the only other offense under 18.6% this season.
Defense: The Dolphins are forcing just 0.75 turnovers per game, tied with the Cowboys for the fourth-fewest through nine weeks.
Fantasy: If you extend De’Von Achane’s numbers from four Tagovailoa games for a 17-game season: 2,266 yards and 21 touchdowns.
Betting: Under tickets have cashed in five of Miami’s past six road games played in primetime.
Los Angeles Rams
Team: In 2023, the Rams lost three straight games before their bye and won seven of eight following the week off. This season, they were 1-4 before their bye and have won all three games since.
QB: Puka Nacua got ejected late in the first half, which impacted his QB in a major way. In Week 9, Matthew Stafford completed just two-of-10 third down passes – in Weeks 1-8, he owned a 59.2% completion rate on third downs.
Offense: Over the past two weeks, 76.7% of Los Angeles’ yards have come through the air (Weeks 3-7: 62.6%).
Defense: The Rams rank fourth in the NFL in pressure rate this season (38.8%) despite blitzing just 25.4% of the time (league average: 25.8%).
Fantasy: Our game is driven by touchdowns, and Kyren Williams, while great at converting, isn’t immune to that. He has consecutive games without a rushing score (rushing TD in nine straight prior) and doesn’t have a rush, gaining more than 17 yards in seven of eight.
Betting: Unders are 10-3 (76.9%) in the Rams last 13 primetime games.
