Kenneth Walker III led Week 9 fantasy scoring with 36.3 points for the Chiefs, posting 143 total yards and three touchdowns on 24 touches. The running back has now topped 30 points three times this season, making him Kansas City's most consistent offensive weapon.

Puka Nacua erupted for 35 points with a season-high 14 catches on 19 targets for 150 yards and a touchdown, plus 20 rushing yards. However, Nacua is scheduled for an MRI on a knee injury suffered on the final snap against Washington. With Davante Adams on IR, Nacua's heavy target share makes him an elite WR1 if healthy for Week 10 at Arizona.

Cee Dee Lamb dominated with 16 targets, 10 receptions and 33.5 points for Dallas, his ninth career game with 30-plus points since his 403.2-point 2023 season. The Bengals' passing trio also thrived: Joe Burrow topped 28 points for a third straight week, Ja'Marr Chase exceeded 31 for a second consecutive game, and Tee Higgins hit 20-plus for a third straight week as Cincinnati routed its opponent 34-17 in Madrid.
