Ollie Gordon II's fantasy role in Week 10
Ollie Gordon II goes into Week 10 of the 2026 season as a every-week lineup piece at RB for the MIA. He is rostered in 89% of leagues and actually started in 78% of them, and we rank him RB16 on our own weekly board at 7.3 projected points.
Interest is climbing — roster rates moved up about 1% over the last week, which usually means managers are reacting to a bigger snap or target share.
No injury designation to work around right now, which keeps his projection honest.
Week 10 matchup breakdown
The matchup: at IND. Our Pepper Meter heat rating for this spot is 1 out of 5, which is how we grade the combination of role, projection and opponent difficulty.
Against a typical starting RB baseline of 11 points, his 7.3-point projection is 3.7 points short. That gap is the whole start/sit argument in one number.
How to play it

Sally's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Ollie Gordon II (MIA RB), our RB16 this week for Week 10 of the 2026 NFL season at IND, projecting 7.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Sally's honest about it: 3.7 points under the starter line isn't the ceiling she chases. He's still in 78% of lineups at 89% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. The projection sits about 34% under what a startable RB returns, so I can't pretend the price tag matches the output. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
Tina's take
Peppers & Picks ranks Ollie Gordon II (MIA RB), our RB16 this week for Week 10 of the 2026 NFL season at IND, projecting 7.3 projected points with a mild Pepper Meter rating. Tina plays contrarian — with 78% start rate he's priced in, and she cares more about his floor than his name. He's still in 78% of lineups at 89% rostered, which is exactly the trap I'm trying to talk you out of. 7.3 points is roughly 34% short of the RB baseline, and I honestly rank on output, not name recognition. The Pepper Meter cools him to Mild, and that reading is doing its job.
