Fantasy football managers should consider benching the Las Vegas Raiders defense in Week 9, according to a new analysis from Fantasy Sports On SI. The Raiders are highlighted as one of four must-sit defenses for the upcoming week.

The Raiders' defensive unit, featuring end Maxx Crosby, tackle Folorunso Fatukasi, and end Kwity Paye, faced the Los Angeles Rams at Allegiant Stadium on October 25, 2026. Despite the talent on the line, the matchup and recent performance suggest limited fantasy upside.

The article by Gray Deyo identifies three other defenses to avoid, though specific teams were not detailed in the available summary. Fantasy players are advised to explore alternative streaming options for Week 9.
