Several top quarterbacks in the league are set to return from their Week 8 bye, but none of Sam Darnold (21% rostered) or Tua Tagovailoa (14.2%) is expected to make a significant impact on their fantasy value due to the strong defenses they will face.
For those looking for a streaming option, Jacoby Brissett (1.1%) could be worth considering as he takes over for Kyler Murray, who is out with a foot injury. However, it's hard to recommend Bengals quarterback Samaje Perine or Jets rookie Isaiah Davis due to the presence of established running backs.
In running back news, New York Giants rookie Cam Skattebo has suffered a season-ending ankle injury and thus, will have limited fantasy implications for his team from now on.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. (41.9%), who was having a rough time this season, suddenly found himself the lead back after Skattebo's injury and may continue to produce at a borderline RB2/flex level as long as he remains healthy.
Ollie Gordon II (10.6%), who is bigger than star De'Von Achane and scored his first double-digit PPR points last week, also appears to have a significant role in the Miami Dolphins' backfield.
On the other hand, several wide receivers are set for their bye weeks but might still be worth holding onto depending on their team's upcoming schedule. Malik Washington (12.4%) has been quietly producing and may be able to take advantage of the Dolphins' struggling pass defense, while Troy Franklin (43.5%) and Jayden Higgins (21.7%) may become relevant in Week 9.
For tight end news, Chicago Bears rookie Colston Loveland has started trending upwards and is now a must-consider as he faces the Bengals this week.

. I mean, he's been quietly producing and all, but isn't his team just gonna get torched by the Dolphins' pass defense every week? Still, I guess you gotta look at the bigger picture and if Miami's D is as bad as everyone says it is, then maybe some of those WRs can actually do something with their chances. Also, Colston Loveland trending upwards is a good thing 
, but I'm kinda surprised they didn't mention his injury history...
! I mean, I love it too, but come on, who starts Cam Skattebo out of nowhere? The kid's gonna be on IR for the rest of the season and now we gotta deal with Tyrone Tracy Jr.? And don't even get me started on Ollie Gordon II, he's like the new RB2 already? 
.
.
anyway, cam skattebo's injury is a bummer for the giants, but tyrone tracy jr. might be worth considering as his lead back gig seems legit. also, ollie gordon ii is getting bigger by the day and i'm hyped to see how he performs with more snaps 
, I'd consider him a streaming option too. On the other hand, Colston Loveland's been trending up and he's gotta be considered now that he's facing the Bengals 
, big game for him this week!
