The reigning MVP has not finished higher than QB12 in any week without Adams this season, and roughly half of his yards and touchdowns have gone to those two wide receivers in combination. Starting in Week 10, he'll be playing with both receivers absent for the first time since early 2024, when he averaged 8.5 fantasy points per contest over a four-game stretch, with just two touchdowns and three interceptions.

Stafford is a trap fade in Week 10 without Adams and Nacua; stream instead.

Stafford has not finished higher than QB12 in any week without Davante Adams this season, with roughly half his yards and touchdowns going to Adams and Puka Nacua combined. Starting Week 10, he'll play without both receivers for the first time since early 2024, when he averaged 8.5 fantasy points per contest over four games with just two touchdowns and three interceptions. After consecutive outings with fewer than 13 fantasy points—including 12.22 against a soft Commanders defense—the source views Stafford as a trap this week despite Arizona being bright green against quarterbacks, recommending streaming alternatives instead.
