Fantasy football managers prepping their Week 9 lineups have a fresh batch of rankings to lean on, according to Yahoo Sports. Analyst Justin Boone released updated kicker rankings for the week, giving fantasy players a guide for one of the lineup's trickiest and most volatile positions.

Yahoo Sports also published its Week 9 tight end rankings, aimed at helping fantasy managers sort out start or sit decisions at a position that can swing close matchups. On the wide receiver side, the outlet highlighted Packers receiver Christian Watson, who left his Week 8 game after suffering a broken rib but still returned to top 100 receiving yards, raising the question of whether he can crack the top 11 wide receivers again this week.

Smith-Njigba surging

A separate Yahoo Sports wide receiver ranking for the 2026 season notes that Jaxon Smith-Njigba is building a case as the top receiver in fantasy football after another strong performance, according to the outlet's latest breakdown.
