Evan Silva’s Matchups: Browns at Dolphins

The Browns come off their Week 9 bye with stud RG Wyatt Teller (calf) returning to solidify an elite rushing attack that never did deal Kareem Hunt before October’s trade deadline. Nick Chubb’s main concerns are the Dolphins’ stout defensive front – holding enemy backs to 3.61 yards per carry – and game script with Cleveland installed as road dogs at Miami. I’m still confidently teeing up Chubb as an RB1 and Hunt as an RB2/flex but acknowledging their downside risks. … Jacoby Brissett has cleared 18 standard-league fantasy points in 1-of-8 starts. Regardless of opponent, Brissett is a two-QB/Superflex-league play only. … On Brissett’s 2022 passes, Amari Cooper has dominated targets (66), catches (39), yards (553), touchdowns (5), and first-down conversions. They’ve clearly developed a rapport. Miami has surrendered the NFL’s 12^th most fantasy points per game to wide receivers. … David Njoku (high ankle sprain) has an outside chance to return at Miami, although I’m treating him cautiously when it comes to Week 10 fantasy-lineup decisions considering the frustrating nature of his injury. Harrison Bryant won’t be TE1 viable should Njoku sit after Bryant ran just 11 pass routes in Cleveland’s pre-bye win over Cincinnati. … Donovan Peoples-Jones has cleared 50 yards in five straight games. He’s earned every-week WR4/flex consideration based on his full-time role and big-play capability. … It’s time for season-long leaguers to pluck Deshaun Watson off waivers. Watson will be eligible to return in Week 13, in order facing the Texans, Bengals, Ravens, Saints, and Commanders to close out the fantasy season.
