Thanks a litany of injuries in the <a href=\"http:\/\/lastwordonprofootball.com\/nfl-teams\/patriots\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">New England Patriots<\/a> backfield, Patterson ended up seeing significant snaps at running back over the past two weeks. While it started as a desperation move, Patterson actually looks like a worthy starter in the backfield. Patterson led the Patriots in both carries and yards in each of the last two weeks, adding a touchdown in Week 10.<\/p>\n<p>Patterson has always been one of the most dangerous runners in the open field, the problem has always been getting him the ball. That task becomes significantly easier when Patterson is lined up in the backfield. Even if\u00a0<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/M\/MichSo00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sony Michel<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0is completely healthy for next week, Patterson has earned a look as a legitimate running back. He&#8217;ll count as a wide receiver in your lineup, but he offers running back upside.<\/p>\n<h2>Adam Humphries<\/h2>\n<p>Everyone assumed that <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/G\/GodwCh00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chris Godwin<\/a><\/strong> would be the third receiver in the <a href=\"http:\/\/lastwordonprofootball.com\/nfl-teams\/buccaneers\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/a> offense with <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/F\/FitzRy00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ryan Fitzpatrick<\/a> <\/strong>at the helm. However, after two weeks of Fitzmagic, it\u2019s clear that Adam Humphries has leapfrogged Godwin on the depth chart. Humphries out-snapped Godwin for the second straight week and showed a fantastic rapport with Fitzpatrick against the <a href=\"http:\/\/lastwordonprofootball.com\/nfl-teams\/panthers\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Carolina Panthers<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Humphries finished Week Nine with 82 yards and two touchdowns on eight receptions. He led the Bucs in all three categories and should carry his success over into Week 10. Tampa Bay faces off against a <a href=\"http:\/\/lastwordonprofootball.com\/nfl-teams\/redskins\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Washington Redskins<\/a> team who just gave up 38 points to the Falcons offense. While Tampa Bay\u2019s offense isn\u2019t quite as good as Atlanta\u2019s, they\u2019re still a good unit that should move the ball well through the air.<\/p>\n<h2>Marquez Valdes-Scantling<\/h2>\n<p>With <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/A\/AlliGe01.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Geronimo Allison<\/a><\/strong> fighting through injuries the past few weeks, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pro-football-reference.com\/players\/V\/ValdMa00.htm?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Marquez Valdes-Scantling<\/a><\/strong> is now the <a href=\"http:\/\/lastwordonprofootball.com\/nfl-teams\/packers\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Green Bay Packers<\/a> number two outside receiver.

However, both players saw the field in Week Nine, and Valdes-Scantling drastically out-produced Allison. Aaron Rodgers can make anyone fantasy relevant, and it looks like the rookie has earned a significant spot in this offense.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonnfl.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/2018\/11\/05\/fantasy-football-duke-johnson-ito-smith-top-week-10-running-back-waiver-claims\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em><strong>Fantasy Football: Top Week 10 Running Back Waiver Claims<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonnfl.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/2018\/11\/05\/fantasy-football-adam-humpries-cordarrelle-patterson-top-week-10-wide-receiver-waiver-claims\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em><strong>Fantasy Football: Top Week 10 Wide Receiver Waiver Claims<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonnfl.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/2018\/11\/05\/fantasy-football-buffalo-bills-new-york-jets-top-fantasy-football-week-10-defenses\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em><strong>Fantasy Football: Top Week 10 Fantasy Defenses<\/strong><\/em><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Main photo:<br \/>\n<a id=\"iVl8pHXPRwtQviLumyTAdA\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1057473128\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'iVl8pHXPRwtQviLumyTAdA',sig:'Qn2xymDi817NMEau2oHYT5OVSQHTBP-d4irOTkaJEV8=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1057473128',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cordarrelle Patterson is technically listed as a wide receiver in fantasy football, but the first-year Patriot can offer running back upside on waivers<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2376,"featured_media":52742,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","sfio_featured_image":false,"sfio_embed_code":"","_ef_editorial_meta_date_first-draft-date":"","_ef_editorial_meta_paragraph_assignment":"","_ef_editorial_meta_checkbox_needs-photo":"","_ef_editorial_meta_number_word-count":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[54,59,25,5,29],"tags":[983,935,294,61,4407,38,40],"class_list":["post-52733","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-editorials","category-fantasy","category-packers","category-patriots","category-buccaneers","tag-adam-humphries","tag-cordarrelle-patterson","tag-fantasy-football","tag-football","tag-marquez-valdes-scantling","tag-new-england-patriots","tag-nfl"],"modified_by":"Al Preziosi","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52733","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2376"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=52733"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/52733\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/52742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=52733"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=52733"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=52733"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
