Week 9 Quarterback Rankings Fantasy Football

Week 8 of the NFL Season is in the books. Here are the Week 9 quarterback rankings for fantasy football. This week, the quarterbacks on bye are Jalen Hurts, Baker Mayfield, Justin Fields, and Dillon Gabriel. Jayden Daniels, Lamar Jackson, Kyler Murray, J.J. McCarthy, Brock Purdy, Michael Penix Jr., and Bryce Young are questionable this week with injuries.

Quarterback Rankings Week 9 Fantasy Football

Tier 1: The Big 4

This top tier of quarterbacks is the best of the best in fantasy football, with Jackson expecting to return this week, but Daniels is questionable:

• Jackson was supposed to return to the Ravens in Week 8, but after a confusing practice report, he was ruled out for the game. However, he should be ready to go for the Thursday Night Football game against the Dolphins, who, before last week, have been terrible. As long as Jackson is close to 100%, he should have a big game in his return.
• It is one of the best regular-season games of the season with Allen and the Bills taking on Mahomes and the Chiefs. Both quarterbacks are the top three options in fantasy football this week.

Tier 2: Low-End QB1s

These guys are low-end QB1s, and I feel comfortable starting any of them as my QB1 this week:

• Maye continues to be terrific, scoring over 26 fantasy points against one of the best defenses in the league. This was his sixth top ten fantasy finish in the last seven weeks. He gets a Falcons defense that just gave up four passing touchdowns to Tua Tagovailoa. Maye jumps into the top five of the quarterback rankings for fantasy football in Week 9.
• Herbert has had two big weeks in a row, scoring over 25 fantasy points in each of them. He had a season-high 62 rushing yards last week and has at least 30 rushing yards in five of eight games. Herbert is in the top ten of the quarterback rankings against a bad Titans team.
