Josh McCown, QB, Cleveland Browns

Josh McCown's inclusion in this week's list comes with a caveat. He's a bit banged up, and as of this article's writing, is questionable for Week 10. If he's unable to go, Johnny Manziel would also be an intriguing sleeper option this week.

McCown is another middling fantasy asset that finds himself in a nice matchup this week. The Pittsburgh Steelers boast the league's best schedule-adjusted Rushing NEP per play in the league this season, which has lead many teams to opt to attack them through the air. While Pittsburgh is 11th in the league in Passing NEP per play, they sit 15th in fantasy points allowed to quarterbacks.

In a week where there aren't many great matchups for sleeper quarterbacks, McCown offers some nice upside. In the six full games he's played this season, McCown has multiple touchdown passes in five. After watching Derek Carr and the Raiders pick apart this secondary last week, there's an opportunity for a nice game from McCown here.
