NFL
Between the Lines: Week 10 Snap Count Analysis
Aaron Jones saw a season-high 74% of the snaps in Week 10 as his fantasy value continues to rise.

AFC South

Houston Texans - Bye Week

Indianapolis Colts - The (Tight) End of Times

Quarterback: Andrew Luck (98%)

Running Backs: Marlon Mack (59%), Nyheim Hines (36%)

Wide Receivers: T.Y. Hilton (75%), Ryan Grant (50%), Dontrelle Inman (32%),Chester Rogers (29%), Zach Pascal (27%),

Tight Ends: Jack Doyle (86%), Mo Alie-Cox (41%), Eric Ebron (38%),

This is just to say, I have seen the targets that were in the Colts' game. The targets you probably thought were being saved for receivers. Forgive the tight ends, their hands were on fire, so sticky and so sure. Doyle, Ebron, and Allie-Cox, a t(e)rio driven by winning, and guided by Luck.

Jacksonville Jaguars - Hyde Wasting a Roster Spot

Quarterback: Blake Bortles (100%)

Running Backs: Leonard Fournette (52%), T.J. Yeldon (6536), Carlos Hyde (12%)

Wide Receivers: Donte Moncrief (81%), Dede Westbrook (80%), D.J. Chark (59%), Keelan Cole (29%)

Tight End: James O'Shaughnessy (69%), Blake Bell (36%)

Carlos Hyde could still be starting for a number of teams. Instead, he's hanging out in the third-string role in Jacksonville, getting three measly touches while playing just 12% of the Jags' snaps this past week. Even if Leonard Fournette gets injured again, it's hard to trust Hyde for your fantasy playoffs as he faces the Titans and Redskins in Weeks 14 and 15, respectively. Unless you've in a very deep league, there is no need for him to be on your roster.

Tennessee Titans - Less is More

Quarterback: Marcus Mariota (100%)

Running Backs: Dion Lewis (75%), Derrick Henry (23%)

Wide Receivers: Corey Davis (91%), Tajae Sharpe (83%), Cameron Batson (55%)

Tight Ends: Jonnu Smith (92%), Luke Stocker (49%), MyCole Pruitt (12%)

Apparently, Derrick Henry needed to just play less often to be more effective. On the field for no more than 34% of the Tennessee Titans' snaps in their past three games, Henry has found the end zone each time, including twice in a win over the New England Patriots. He isn't returning the value you'd have hoped to start the season, but he's now scored at least 9.2 standard points in each of the past three weeks and is worth using against the Colts this week, especially with six teams on bye weeks.
