It is hard to believe, but we have reached the halfway point of the NFL season as we enter Week 9. As usual, injuries have piled up at this time of the season, and we need to watch the injury news closely leading up to kickoff on Sunday. In addition, last week’s late-breaking news pushed lineups onto D’Andre Swift and the Falcons pass-catchers, which didn’t turn out too well. However, don’t let that deter you from following the news this week and making the necessary pivots if needed.
This week also features the potential returns of some players to the field, which could affect lineup construction. My advice is to embrace players coming off the injured list if they are given the green light to start and are expected to garner their typical workload. So, let’s get after the Cash game lineup advice for Week 9!

The players below are ones I’m looking at for cash game considerations for Week 9 main slates:
Quarterbacks
DraftKings
Tyrod Taylor (HOU): $5,000 vs. MIA
I told you in the intro to embrace players returning from injury, and I’ll give you one right out of the gate with Taylor returning to the field at a cheap price and in a favorable matchup against the Dolphins. Taylor started the season hot as the starting quarterback for the Texans with 23 DraftKings points in Week 1 and 16.5 DraftKings points in Week 2 before leaving with an injury halfway through the game.
