Is Will Levis a good fantasy pick in Week 10?

Tennessee Titans QB Will Levis

The Tennessee Titans' offense has looked different since Levis took over under center in Week 8. Levis had 4 touchdowns in his first NFL start against the Atlanta Falcons, which is more than Tannehill had in six previous starts (2).

Levis is a good pick this week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on the road. His first road game as an NFL starting quarterback didn't go as planned in Week 9. He threw for 262 yards and an interception in the loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Those who have have Titans' second-round pick in fantasy football should be optimistic in Week 10. Levis is also available in many leagues, so grab him if you can.

Is Taylor Heinicke a good fantasy pick in Week 10?

Atlanta Falcons QB Taylor Heinicke

Despite the Atlanta Falcons' Week 9 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, Taylor Heinicke looked great with 268 yards, 1 touchdown, and an interception. The Falcons' passing game was not consistent with Ridder at the helm but Heinicke gave them some life.

Atlanta hits the road in Week to face the Arizona Cardinals in what could be a great matchup for the signal-caller. He enters the game with at least 12 PPR points in the last two games.

Similar to Levis, Heinicke is available in most fantasy leagues. He can be a good start as bye weeks are a factor.

Will Levis vs. Taylor Heinicke - Week 10 fantasy comparison

The Falcons signal-caller gets the nod as Levis is more likely to throw his second career interception against the Buccaneers. However, the Titans rookie is projected to throw for more yards than Heinicke in his matchup versus Arizona.

Tampa Bay allows the second-most yards per game while Arizona is in the middle of the pack with the 17th-most. Both Levis and Heinicke are seen getting at least one touchdown pass.

Having either player could be ideal in a Superflex league when you can start both. In a one QB league, both are viable options.
