Welcome to the bloodbath that is week 9 fantasy football, where everyone has Covid but we’re just going to play through it! But seriously, I’m hoping for the best when it comes to the well-being of our celebrated superstars. Speaking of superstars, GUESS WHO’S BACK? Christian McCaffrey will step back onto the field and do what he can to make up ground for those who picked him #1 overall this year. Another superstar is expected back as well. Michael Thomas! Just in time to play my Bucs of course. Man, I wish another teammate called him a slot receiver to set him off and make this an easier matchup for the Bucs after he inevitably punches the guy and gets suspended.
Speaking of, looking at you Javon Wims, if someone is going to get in a brawl this week, quit punching helmets! It’s not worth getting suspended if you can’t get a clean face shot. Go below the shoulder pads, work the body. Save your fingers and knuckles, I’ve heard those are valuable. Especially for wide receivers! This is all coming from a guy who has never been in a street fight. But I did fight once in an unsanctioned local MMA event years and years ago. Maybe I will tell you all that story some day. Anyways, lets get to the injuries and updated rankings for week 9 of the fantasy football season!
