Week 10 Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em Verdict: Start Zach Charbonnet
Expectations were certainly higher for Jeanty before the 2026 campaign began, but Charbonnet is in a much better spot entering Week 10.
While Charbonnet gets an extremely favorable matchup against the Raiders, Jeanty will face a Seahawks defense that's ninth in rushing EPA/play (-0.13) and seventh in ground success rate allowed (35.7%).
Additionally, Seattle is permitting the third-fewest schedule-adjusted fantasy PPG to RBs (-3.3).
Of the 24 RBs with 100+ attempts, Jeanty is dead last in EPA/rush (-0.28) and yards per attempt (3.2). With Jeanty being extremely inefficient on the ground behind a below-average offensive line in a tough matchup, he’s too dependent on positive receiving production.
