Week 10 fantasy defense rankings: Top DST streamers, starts

This

past week was a banner one for defenses in fantasy football. Of the 28 teams in action, exactly half of them put up at least nine fantasy points in Week 9. Eleven of them scored in double digits, led by the San Francisco 49ers with 17.

The Niners didn't record any sacks against the Las Vegas Raiders

, but they did force five turnovers − one of them coming on LB Jaden Dugger's 35-yard pick-six off Kirk Cousins.

The Niners face a bit more potent offense this week in the Dallas Cowboys, but they're still a startable option.

ON BYE: Chicago, Denver, Philadelphia, Tampa Bay
