The Pittsburgh Steelers will visit the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding RB Kenneth Gainwell.
Is Gainwell Playing in Week 10?
Gainwell is not on the injury report and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Steelers’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Gainwell in Week 10?
Outside of the Dublin game where Jaylen Warren was a late scratch, Kenneth Gainwell hasn’t cleared seven carries in a game this season. I love the fact that, starting with that contest, he has 20 catches over his past five, but that role alone isn’t nearly enough to justify flex consideration.
He’s earned the trust of Aaron Rodgers, and there’s certainly value in that. We just need an injury ahead of him to reap the benefits in the fantasy space.
