Ben Zweiman Senior Editor Sun, November 15, 2026 at 9:41 PM UTC · 3 min read About Our Ads Advertisement Advertisement Advertisement We're approaching Week 11 of the 2026 fantasy football season and bye-pocalypse is nearly upon us. We have six teams on bye in Week 11 — the Packers, Rams, Seahawks, Patriots, Browns and Falcons. With so many teams off, you're likely going to have at least a hole or two in your lineup for a key matchup. We're here to help with some potential adds off the waiver wire.
The Houston passing game has really been clicking in two contests since the bye. Last week, we saw C.J. Stroud and Co. tear up the Chargers. In Week 10, the party continued (albeit in a stunning loss to the Browns) with Stroud tossing three TDs, one to Hutchinson, who now has a score in three straight games. He was second behind Nico Collins with four catches on seven targets for 58 yards and the TD, his third straight game reaching double-digit fantasy points.
There are going to be weeks in which the Texans spread it around, particularly once Marvin Harrison Jr. is back from injury. But the run game is non-existent for Houston, which should mean the team leans on the pass even more down the stretch. Hutchinson is playing the majority of snaps and is developing chemistry with Stroud. The wideout isn't a bad pickup if you need a spot start at WR or FLEX with Houston set to face the lowly Colts in Week 11.
Looking back to that TNF matchup between Washington and New York, Williams was a key contributor with two catches, one going for 31 yards and a TD. If we're chasing opportunity, Williams led Commanders WRs in snaps with 59 (86%) in the win. He finished with a 2-42-1 line for 11.2 fantasy points, and while we'd like to see Jayden Daniels give Williams more looks, that could be on the horizon. We hear the sentiment that rookies tend to improve in the second half and it's looking like Williams will be a priority in the passing game with Terry McLaurin out for the season.
Similar to Hutch, Williams is a decent WR or FLEX option with a potentially great game script in Week 11 against the Bengals. Williams has long-term value as well with solid matchups against the Cardinals, Titans and Texans after that.
We're all wide receivers in this edition, baby! Our third wideout recommendation is a player who will be coming off a bye in Denver's Bryant. He would have been a trendy pickup for Week 10 had the Broncos not been off, following a useful 4-56-1 line against the Panthers. Bryant has missed most of the 2026 season but when healthy, he's posted decent numbers with at least 6.2 fantasy points in four of five contests.
That isn't a huge figure but it's a decent floor for a player who may go overlooked on the wire this week. We also know that Jaylen Waddle sustained a concussion in Week 9. He should have ample time to get back for Week 11, but in the event Waddle is out, Bryant would get a nice boost. He's another target if you need a WR or FLEX option.
