Fantasy Football Usage Report: Week 10 Recap (Snaps, Targets, and Red Zone Usage)

Week after week, it's vital to keep tabs on new trends and usage in order to make optimal fantasy football decisions for the rest of the season.

And while we can hope for certain players to see more work, what matters is the data -- snaps, carries, targets, and more.

So, with that in mind, here's a breakdown of each player's offensive snaps, passing play snaps, carries, red zone opportunities (carries plus targets), overall targets, and downfield targets (10-plus air yards).

Players without a carry or target will be omitted from the data.

Stats via numberFire and NextGenStats unless otherwise noted.

Trey BensonRB14 (24.6%)41002 (8.3%)0

Passing volume was down (24 total attempts) in a positive game script this week, but the usual suspects earned targets and ran routes.

In nine games with Trey McBride, he paces the team with a 26.1% target share.

Kyle Pitts has now played 48.3%, 53.6%, and 50.7% of the team's snaps over the last three weeks in a role reduction.

On the full season, Drake London leads the team with a 25.5% target share, and Darnell Mooney is second at 24.6% for one of the most concentrated top-two in the NFL.

A huge passing day from Lamar Jackson (290 yards and 4 touchdowns) didn't lead to big games from pass-catchers -- unless you count Tylan Wallace's 5-route, 3-target, 115-yard, 1-touchdown game.

But other usage was concentrated on Rashod Bateman, Mark Andrews, and Zay Flowers. Not much was there in the way of elevated routes for anyone else.

Diontae Johnson ran just three routes but had two targets for six yards.

Derrick Henry dominated carries on a 60.3% snap rate, a similar snap rate to what he has seen in recent weeks (64.6%, 57.4%, 50.0%, 61.1% leading in).

James Cook continues to play around a 55.0% snap rate but maintains a strong workload (14.2 carries and 2.8 targets for 83.4 scrimmage yards per game).

In a game without Amari Cooper and Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir was peppered, as was Curtis Samuel, but only Mack Hollins cleared 58 receiving yards.

Dalton Kincaid (knee) exited early.

Chuba Hubbard continues to be a great fantasy asset and was second on the team in targets (six). It remains to be seen how his role looks with Jonathon Brooks active out of the bye. But Hubbard's snap rate has been at least 74.6% in five straight games now.

After the Jonathan Mingo trade, Jalen Coker's target share spiked this week after maxing out at 17.6% in a single game this season.

Pass snaps were pretty concentrated, yet nobody cleared 41 receiving yards (Coker).

Since Week 8 without Diontae Johnson in the lineup, Coker and Xavier Legette are tied for team-best 20.5% target shares, followed by David Moore (15.7%) and Hubbard (13.3%).

Adam Thielen could return after the bye.

The Bears' top-four pass-catchers remain pretty constant -- but also low-upside, as Caleb Williams has now thrown for 226 yards or fewer in four straight games.

In games with Keenan Allen active, he leads the team in target share, but nobody is averaging more than 38.4 yards per game in this split.

D'Andre Swift has played at least 62.9% of the team's snaps in all but one game this year, but the revitalized efficiency he had earlier this year has slowed of late. Swift has averaged 38.0 scrimmage yards from Weeks 1 through 3, 133.3 from Weeks 4 through 8, and 73.5 in Weeks 9 and 10.

The big offensive showing didn't lead to a win but probably helped fantasy teams succeed.

Ja'Marr Chase thrived without Tee Higgins again, and 10 of his 17 targets were at least 10 yards downfield.

Mike Gesicki remains involved without Higgins and had a 16.7% target share -- but 9 looks in the high-volume game (plus 2 red zone targets).

In games without Higgins (Weeks 1, 2, 8, 9, and 10), Chase has seen a 26.5% target share and 30.6% air yards share for 91.6. yards per game. Gesicki's market shares are 19.0% and 22.5% respectively.

Chase Brown is next up at a 12.2% target share, followed by Andrei Iosivas (11.1% target share).

Brown solidified his role as an elite fantasy football running back, earning 13 of 16 carries and 11 of 54 targets (20.4%) on an 88.0% snap rate.

In a game without Dak Prescott, offensive production was down, but at least CeeDee Lamb was treated like a WR1. However, despite 10 targets and a carry, he had only 24 scrimmage yards.

Rico Dowdle led the team with 56 scrimmage yards.

Usage here wasn't really surprising, but the production will be down without Prescott.

Audric Estime overtook Javonte Williams in the backfield in terms of snap rate and was playing down the stretch after just a 24.1% first-half snap rate. Estime handled 14 of 17 running back carries in an apparent role reversal here.

As usual, Courtland Sutton was the focal point in the passing offense, though Devaughn Vele has solidified himself as the WR2 in the offense. Vele has a 20.9% target per route rate on the season, just abouve the league WR average.

Only five players here had a target or carry (excluding Jared Goff), as this remains a concentrated fantasy offense.

All five had at least 53 scrimmage yards.

Nico Collins was unable to suit up for Week 10, and Tank Dell again led the team in targets, and he, John Metchie III, and Dalton Schultz each drew three downfield targets.

There could be room for a third and fourth pass-catcher here even with Collins back, and it looks like Metchie -- despite running behind Xavier Hutchinson -- could earn more targets.

Joe Mixon maintains an elite red zone role and a high snap rate.

Alec Pierce, Josh Downs, and Adonai Mitchell all cleared 70 receiving yards in a really concentrated passing tree in a game without Michael Pittman Jr.

We can likely expect the targets to focus on Downs and Pittman Jr. once he returns, but Pierce and Mitchell have proven capable when given chances.

Mac Jones was unable to support his pass-catchers, and Evan Engram's 8 targets led to a team-high 40 yards. Engram and Gabriel Davis each earned 4 downfield targets, though.

We know pretty well what this offense is by now.

Travis Kelce keeps dominating targets, DeAndre Hopkins keeps developing his role, and Xavier Worthy and Justin Watson keep running routes without earning many targets.

Kareem Hunt drew 10 targets and had a team-high 65 receiving yards while running as the lead back. Hunt has a 47.4% red zone opportunity share plus a 58.1% opportunity-per-snap rate. He's being used just like Isiah Pacheco by a lot of measures.

With Gus Edwards back, J.K. Dobbins' snap rate scaled back to 66.7% with Edwards seeing a 24.6% share, but Dobbins' receiving role wasn't impacted. The main issue is the red zone role (Dobbins has had a 59.5% red zone snap rate in games with Edwards and a 72.7% rate without him). It's a slight downgrade but still a strong role.

Though it was a poor game for the pass-catchers' usage due to 18 pass attempts, in six games with Quentin Johnston and Josh Palmer, the best role belongs to Ladd McConkey.

Kyren Williams keeps playing huge snaps but saw his red zone usage dip finally. This could be something to monitor, as he lacks high-end yardage upside on a game-to-game basis. He has averaged 88.9 scrimmage yards per game but has maxed out at 116 (twice). You're starting Kyren, but let's keep an eye out.

Puka Nacua dominated targets despite fewer snaps than Cooper Kupp, who earned four downfield targets of his own. On the full season, both have elite target-per-route rate numbers (32.3% for Nacua and 31.5% for Kupp).

De'Von Achane again played roughly 70% of the team's snaps for the second straight week while Raheem Mostert ceded snaps to Jaylen Wright. In each player's active games, Achane (17.8% target share) ranks second among all RBs on the season.

In two games with Hockenson back, Jefferson still stands out, but shares are a bit split other than that.

No pass-catcher had more than 6 targets or 64 yards, and the standout pass snaps belonged to the target leader, Kayshon Boutte.

There hasn't been much here outside of Stevenson -- and some Hunter Henry -- all year.

Marquez Valdes-Scantling's big game (109 yards and 2 touchdowns) came on just 3 targets and 16 routes.

Usage here is dispersed, even with the team's wide receiver injuries.

Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s overtime fumble will leave a bad taste until their bye ends, but indications are that he solidified his role as the clear top back in this offense, as he had a 79.5% snap rate after 67.3%, 61.2%, and 69.5% rates three weeks prior with Devin Singletary back in the lineup.

The pass-catching work looked pretty typical as of late, other than Jalin Hyatt taking over the Darius Slayton role -- a lot of routes with a few downfield heaves. Malik Nabers led the pass-catchers in targets (10) but was held to 50 yards; Wan'Dale Robinson, Hyatt, and Theo Johnson were the other relevant route-runners.

Nabers' elite target share hasn't been enough lately, as he has had 71 yards or fewer from scrimmage in each of his four games since returning.

There wasn't a lot of passing volume needed in a lopsided win.

In two games with A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, and Dallas Goedert all active and playing relevant snaps, they've dominated targets.

Saquon Barkley's red zone role is still good: a 76.0% snap rate and a 38.6% opportunity share for the full season, but he actually has a 30.8% red zone target share. The risk of losing goal line touches isn't going away, though.

Mike Williams played hero with a game-winning score but was limited in his team debut while George Pickens continued operating as the team's clear WR1 with a lot of fantasy potential.

In three games with Russell Wilson, Pickens has a 26.6% target share and a 41.4% air yards share. Calvin Austin III is next at 17.7%, the only other target share better than 12.7%.

Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren have had roughly a 50/50 snap split since Warren's Week 6 return.

Christian McCaffrey is back. He had an 88.5% snap rate in his return and handled 20 opportunities for 107 scrimmage yards.

Jauan Jennings also really stands out here in his return after a two-game absence. He led in snaps, routes, targets, and downfield targets and was involved in the red zone.

Ricky Pearsall also had a great underlying role but has been around the 65% mark in terms of routes in three games since debuting.

The backfield was tighter this week with Sean Tucker playing only on special teams -- but still a committee between Rachaad White and Bucky Irving.

But in two games without Mike Evans, Chris Godwin, and Jalen McMillan, White trails just Cade Otton in targets.

Amidst news of a role reduction for Tony Pollard, he wound up with a 52.9% snap rate with Tyjae Spears seeing 47.1% of the snaps. This is a huge downgrade for Pollard, whose snap rate had been above 80% for three straight entering.

Calvin Ridley is now the team's lone relevant fantasy player. His target shares since the bye have been 29.6%, 23.7%, 39.5%, 29.6%, and 39.1%.

Of late, targets have been concentrated on Terry McLaurin, Noah Brown, and Zach Ertz.

In five games since Brown returned to the lineup, each three have 19.6% target shares or better.
