Week 9 Fantasy Football Rankings: Defense and Special Teams

Welcome to Week 9 of the fantasy football season!

This week has four teams on a bye (49ers, Broncos, Jaguars and Lions), which leaves a lot of lineup holes to fill. As always. I’ve used a full-point PPR scoring system, which you can use in addition to the Week 9 edition of Start Em, Sit Em.

At Sports Illustrated, we always have you covered!

Be sure to check back for updates … and good luck everyone!
