Welcome to the Week 11 Dynasty Risers & Fallers. I highlight which players have had a huge rise or fall in their fantasy value this week.
Fantasy Football Risers & Fallers is one of the biggest topics in dynasty every season. It’s quick & easy to understand, translates to several different league formats beyond dynasty, and, most of all, it’s SEO-friendly. This season, Fantasy Sports Advice Network has allowed me to cover the biggest movers of our beloved fantasy football space each week! So without further ado, why don’t we talk about the players that made a splash (both good and bad) in Week 10 of the 2025 NFL Season!
Week 11 Dynasty Risers
TreVeyon Henderson, RB (New England Patriots)
This isn’t a false alarm — TreVeyon Henderson has finally broken out! The Patriots’ rookie running back exploded in Week 10 against the Buccaneers, turning 15 touches into 150 yards and 2 touchdowns, finishing as the RB4 on the week. After flashing potential in limited action, Henderson’s efficiency and big-play ability finally translated into a true fantasy breakout. With the Patriots’ backfield still battling injuries, he’s in a prime position to build on this momentum and take control of a high-volume rushing attack.
The setup couldn’t be better for continued success. New England ranks #6 in run plays per game, and Henderson sits at #9 in yards per touch, a sign that his production isn’t just a fluke. Perhaps most importantly, the Patriots’ surprising success this season has created positive game scripts that favor running backs rather than forcing the offense into catch-up mode. If Henderson keeps seeing double-digit touches, his combination of efficiency and opportunity could make him a key fantasy asset down the stretch. Congrats to everyone who held strong or bought low — you might have found your league-winning RB.
Marvin Harrison JR, WR (Arizona Cardinals)
Well, appendicitis aside… “Maserati Marv” is finally starting to find his rhythm in the NFL. With Jacoby Brissett taking over at quarterback, Marvin Harrison Jr. has looked noticeably more comfortable and consistent, something fantasy managers have been waiting for all season. Over the past two weeks, he’s posted 7 receptions on 10 targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in Week 9, followed by another score in Week 10 despite an inefficient 3 catches on 12 targets for 33 yards and a touchdown. The volume is there, and the trust from Brissett is growing — both strong indicators that Harrison is inching closer to becoming a weekly fantasy mainstay.
Currently sitting at WR27 in points per game (12.5), Harrison hasn’t quite hit the elite ceiling many expected when the Cardinals drafted him 4th overall, but the trajectory is clearly upward. As Arizona continues to retool its offense, it’s only a matter of time before the rookie is featured as the true centerpiece he was meant to be. The flashes of dominance are there, and once the offense stabilizes around him, Harrison’s breakout could come fast. Savvy fantasy managers should buy him now — before he fully transforms into the star he was drafted to be.
Tyler Shough, QB (New Orleans Saints)
Third time’s the charm for rookie quarterback Tyler Shough, who finally notched his first career win in Week 10 — and did it impressively. The Saints’ second-round pick completed 19 of 27 passes for 282 yards and 2 touchdowns in a 17–7 victory over the division rival Panthers. What made the performance even more encouraging was how it elevated everyone around him: Chris Olave posted 104 yards and a score, Alvin Kamara racked up over 100 all-purpose yards, and Juwan Johnson added 92 yards and a touchdown of his own. It was the kind of efficient, composed outing that hinted at real promise for New Orleans’ young signal-caller.
Shough’s poise and chemistry with the Saints’ offensive core make it hard not to wonder if he’s playing his way into the team’s long-term plans. After a rocky start to his rookie campaign, he finally looked in command of the offense — spreading the ball around, keeping drives alive, and showing off the arm talent that made him a Day 2 pick. If he continues to build on this performance down the stretch, it’s not crazy to think Tyler Shough could enter 2026 as the Saints’ starting quarterback. For a franchise searching for stability under center, this win might just mark the beginning of something real.

Week 11 Dynasty Fallers
Justin Fields, QB (New York Jets)
Despite the Jets winning their last two games, Justin Fields has taken a noticeable step back after what looked like a breakout start to the season. Week 9 offered some hope — he threw 32 passes for over 200 yards and a touchdown with no interceptions, showing signs of maturity as a passer. But then came Week 10, where Fields managed just 11 pass attempts for 54 yards, 1 touchdown, and 1 interception, a stat line that felt all too familiar to fantasy managers who’ve seen his inconsistency before. The explosive runs and highlight plays are still there, but his weekly floor has once again fallen through the cracks.
At this point, Fields sits in the bottom half of the league in nearly every major quarterback metric, making him one of the toughest fantasy QBs to trust. His rushing ability will always offer a baseline of fantasy relevance, but the limitations as a passer — and the volatility that comes with them — make him more of a “fun to watch” stopgap than a reliable starter, both in fantasy and real life. Unless something dramatically changes with his role or offensive scheme, Fields is trending down fast and looks more like a boom-or-bust QB2 than the franchise cornerstone many (myself included) once hoped he’d become.
Kenneth Walker, RB (Seattle Seahawks)
Despite starting the year strong, Kenneth Walker has slowly lost his grip on the Seahawks’ backfield. While he’s played one more game than Zach Charbonnet, and therefore holds leads in total carries and rushing yards, Charbonnet has been the one cashing in near the goal line — scoring six touchdowns to Walker’s three. The usage split tells the story: Charbonnet owns a 50.2% snap share compared to Walker’s 45.6%, a near-even split that makes it difficult for either back to produce consistent fantasy value. Even though Walker remains the more efficient runner, averaging better yards per carry and more fantasy points per game, his weekly upside has been capped by limited red-zone opportunities.
For fantasy managers, this backfield has become a frustrating committee where talent isn’t translating into dependable production. Walker’s explosive ability is undeniable, but as long as Charbonnet continues to dominate goal-line work and sees steady usage, Walker’s fantasy ceiling will stay suppressed. It’s becoming increasingly clear that the Seahawks’ system isn’t built to feature him as a true lead back. If he’s ever going to unlock his full potential, fantasy managers may need to hope for an offseason move to a team willing to commit to his skill set fully.
D.K. Metcalf, WR (Pittsburgh Steelers)
The Arthur Smith Effect seems to be claiming another victim — this time, DK Metcalf. Once one of the league’s most dominant alpha wideouts, Metcalf is starting to resemble more of an expensive decoy than a featured weapon in the Steelers’ offense. The numbers are concerning: he’s had five games with three or fewer receptions, including just 2 catches for 6 yards in Week 9 and 3 for 35 yards in Week 10. For a player with his physical tools and talent, those are alarmingly low outputs that reflect a deeper issue with how he’s being utilized in this new offensive system.
Statistically, it’s easy to see why fantasy managers are frustrated. Metcalf ranks #34 in targets, #38 in target share, #29 in routes run, #37 in air yards, and even worse in efficiency metrics like #57 in average depth of target, #53 in catchable target rate, and #82 in target separation. Simply put, he’s not being schemed open or used in ways that highlight his strengths. As long as Arthur Smith continues to call plays in this fashion, it’s hard to get excited about Metcalf’s fantasy outlook — no matter how elite the talent is. Right now, he’s stuck in an offense that just doesn’t know what to do with him.
