As I do every year over the last 13 years, I’m here to help with waiver wire adds via my weekly Waiver Favors™ article! And I’m assuming if you’re reader right now, you’re in your fantasy football playoffs, so congratulations!I’ll make a couple suggestions for after Week 10 of the 2025 fantasy football season that hopefully will keep your team running. You’re welcome. Again.
As usual, all pickups are available in at least 50% of Yahoo standard fantasy football leagues (with some minor exceptions) as of Sunday evening.
Marcus Mariota
QB – Washington Commanders – 14% Owned
Marcus Mariota has been fairly competent with Jayden Daniels out, completing 16 of 22 passes for 213 yards and 2 TDs in Week 10, also adding 22 rush yards. Perhaps the upside isn’t huge, but he get a nice matchup against the Dolphins in Week 11 and Jayden Daniels is likely out for at least the next 2-3 weeks, if not longer. Feel free to get him for those who need a bye week replacement or in any two QB leagues.
Tyler Allgeier
RB – Atlanta Falcons – 31% Owned
Alec Pierce
WR – Indianapolis Colts – 42% Owned
Alec Pierce is a on a role. He managed to catch 4 of 7 targets for 84 yards and a TD in Week 10, finishing 2nd in receptions, receiving yards and targets for the Colts. Pierce now has at least 69 receiving yards in 4 consecutive games and is trending up. Go grab him in all 12-team leagues or deeper.

Tyler Lockett
WR – Las Vegas Raiders – 1% Owned
In his second game with the Raiders, Tyler Lockett managed to catch 5 of 6 targets for 44 yards in Week 10 leading the Raiders in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The rest of the team was mostly dysfunctional, but it’s possible that Lockett and Geno Smith are finding the connection they had in Seattle. Jakobi Meyers is no longer there having been traded, so there may be some opportunity for Lockett. Feel free to snag him in all 14-team leagues or deeper.
Mack Hollins
WR – New England Patriots – 0% Owned
Patriots receivers haven’t been a good bet this season, but with Kayshon Boutte out, Mack Hollins stepped up in Week 10 with 6 receptions from a whopping 10 targets for 106 yards. Will this be consistent? Probably not, but the connection seems to be there with Drake Maye, so feel free to stash him in all 14-team leagues or deeper as we wait to see how this plays out.
Theo Johnson
TE – New York Giants – 42% Owned
Theo Johnson has been garnering targets from Jaxson Dart for some time, but he managed to catch 7 of 8 targets for 75 yards in Week 10, setting career highs in targets, catches and receiving yards. With Dart out in the second half of the game due to a concussion, it will be difficult to predict what will happen moving forward, but it’s worth grabbing Johnson in all 12-team leagues or deeper and hope that Dart returns.
