Week 10 Booms and Busts
By: Logan Lepiscopo
This NFL season has been moving rapidly as we are already at week 10 of the season. Fantasy football has been odd this year with the way below average scoring and more significant injuries than usual. It progressively gets harder week in and week out to adjust to the injuries and bye weeks. I for one can say that injuries and bye weeks have been decimating my roster and my chances of winning, but as fantasy football managers we have to continue to work the waiver wire and find ways to fill in for our absent superstar players. REMINDER: JUST BECAUSE A PLAYER IS LABELED AS A “BUST” DOES NOT MEAN YOU SHOULD BENCH THEM! IT SIMPLY MEANS THEY MAY NOT LIVE UP TO THEIR PROJECTION!!! Without further ado shall we get into the players that can boom or potentially bust for week 10 of the NFL season.
