We have officially entered Week 9 of the 2021 NFL season, and here are ten quarterbacks that could be sleeper fantasy football picks this week.

The 2021 NFL season is well underway, and teams are starting to distinguish themselves as potential playoff contenders. In fantasy football, it is time to make a move towards the playoffs as well, and having an elite quarterback is crucial to getting you where you want to go.

Here is a look at 10 signal-callers who could be solid sleeper adds in Week 9.

10 QB sleepers to target for fantasy football 2021 NFL Week 9

10. Baker Mayfield at Cincinnati

The Cleveland Browns are coming off a tough loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, and will once again battle it out in AFC North action this weekend. This time, Baker Mayfield and company will take on the Cincinnati Bengals, and I believe Mayfield could be in for a big day in this one.

The Bengals defense was picked apart by Mike White of the New York Jets in Week 8, looking weak on all three levels. That should play into Mayfield’s hands, as he looks to get this team pointed back in the right direction.

9. Daniel Jones vs Las Vegas

The New York Giants will play host to the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 9, with Las Vegas coming off a bye week. The Raiders are playing at a high level right now, and getting a great pass rush, so Daniel Jones could be running for his life on Sunday inside MetLife Stadium.

However, the Raiders also tend to allow the big play, and Jones and this Giants offense can get it going at times. They will rely on him to get the job done with his arm, and his legs against Las Vegas, making him an interesting fantasy quarterback in Week 9.
