Week 10 Late-Week Players To Add: Tyler Allgeier, Devin Singletary, and More
Jonathan Fuller shares several late-week waiver adds to help get your fantasy team ready for Week 10.
There are just five weeks remaining until the fantasy playoffs start in most leagues. This is the time when good fantasy managers can really separate themselves by balancing the need to continue stacking wins while also positioning their roster for a playoff run.
The players featured in last week's article got off to a strong start, with Kyle Monangai and Tory Horton both delivering big games while Bhayshul Tuten found the end zone and hit a season high with nine rush attempts in the Jags' Week 9 win.
Heading into Week 10, I am back again with a new group of late-week waiver adds who are available in more than 50% of leagues. This list features a mix of guys who you can start if you are dealing with bye weeks and injuries, as well as a few deep league stashes to pick up before they become the headliner of waiver wire articles in future weeks.
Tyler Allgeier, RB, Atlanta Falcons - 33% rostered
Tyler Allgeier is one of the best handcuff RBs in fantasy football, and now is when you want those players on your roster. If you've been stashing rookies or backup players at the onesie positions, it is time to consider cutting them if they aren't clearly ascending.
Allgeier can be started as a FLEX in matchups where the Falcons are favored, but his real appeal comes from the contingent value if something were to happen to Bijan Robinson. We've seen Allgeier be efficient with a large workload in the past, so we can be confident that he would handle the large majority of the work in a run-heavy offense if Bijan misses time.
The Falcons also have upcoming matchups against the Saints (Week 12) and Jets (Week 13), where you could start Allgeier and be reasonably confident that he will see double-digit touches. This makes him a valuable roster addition for almost any fantasy team, but particularly valuable to the Bijan team.

Devin Singletary, RB, New York Giants - 16% rostered
The Giants' backfield was a much more even split than I expected following Cam Skattebo's injury. Tyrone Tracy Jr. has the edge in the passing game, but Devin Singletary actually handled more of the rushing work in Week 9.
Despite missing his two best playmakers, Jaxson Dart continues to find ways to move the ball, which creates opportunities for the skill position players to accumulate fantasy points. Although this offense isn't as exciting as it could have been, it doesn't look like the floor is going to fall out either.
There were no carries inside the five-yard line for either Singletary or Tracy in Week 9, but Singletary has handled more of the short-distance work since Skattebo went down, which makes me think he will get the first crack at goal-line carries when they are available.
I don't love the idea of starting Singletary in Week 10, but if you are desperate and just looking for someone who should see more than just a couple of touches, he is your best bet.
Harold Fannin Jr., TE, Cleveland Browns - 45% rostered
I was surprised that Harold Fannin still qualifies for this article. He should be viewed as a low-end TE1 on a weekly basis and rostered in every fantasy league with at least 10 teams.
Fannin topped David Njoku in routes and targets in three consecutive games before Cleveland's bye week. At 2-6, the Browns are going to be turning their attention to building for 2026, and it seems unlikely Njoku will still be on the roster next year. This gives them every incentive to make Harold Fannin one of the centerpieces of their offense as they look to build rapport between their young skill players.
I expect to see multiple more top-5 fantasy finishes from Fannin over the rest of this season and would highly encourage fantasy managers to add him before we see the full breakout.
Emanuel Wilson, RB, Packers - 8% rostered
The RB waiver wire is extremely thin in most of my leagues, so the only way to find value is to look ahead and find the next breakout before it happens. Josh Jacobs has been playing through a calf injury for weeks, and Wilson has looked good when he has touched the ball.
Wilson is purely a contingent play, so he ranks lower than guys like Singletary and Allgeier, but his upside is arguably the highest if he were to get the starting job. The Packers like to lean on the run, and Wilson has the size to handle a feature back role if he needs to. Managers who roster Josh Jacobs should strongly consider adding Wilson.
Devin Neal, RB, New Orleans Saints - 3% rostered
Neal is a similar story to Wilson; he is the clear backup to have behind a veteran RB. The Saints are a worse offense than Green Bay, and the Taysom Hill factor would complicate things, so I would rather have Wilson, but Neal is a name worth knowing.
The one thing Neal has going for him is that New Orleans could choose to increase his role down the stretch to see what they have in the rookie, while it is unlikely Green Bay would do the same with Wilson.
Neal is available in almost every league, so if you are in a deep league and need a speculative add who could gain value over the rest of the season, this is where I would go.
