It is essential to know when there will be no matchup for the week, especially when selecting a fantasy football team. When a fantasy football bye week occurs, you will have to replace a fantasy player on your roster, making the timing of these weeks crucial to your overall success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lineups.com\/articles\/nfl-bye-weeks-schedule\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lineups<\/a>, &#8220;The NFL season is a long and grueling process, and teams have one bye week to help rest up.&#8221; They explain, &#8220;This is when teams will take some time off and also work on preparing for the rest of the season. It gives a chance for teams to catch their breaths.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the 2023\u201324 NFL season, bye weeks don't start until Week 5, giving fantasy owners time to adjust their rosters. However, in Week 7 and Week 13, six teams are on bye. Hopefully, you paid attention to this during your fantasy draft; it will take some juggling to ensure you have enough players on the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is a full list of every week there is a bye in 2023 and which teams sit out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Week 5: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/ranking-cleveland-browns-quarterbacks-franchise-history\/\">Cleveland Browns<\/a>, Los Angeles Chargers, Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 6: <\/strong>Green Bay Packers, Pittsburgh Steelers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 7: <\/strong>Carolina Panthers, <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/ranking-cincinnati-bengals-quarterbacks-franchise-history\/\">Cincinnati Bengals<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/ranking-dallas-cowboys-quarterbacks-franchise-history\/\">Dallas Cowboys<\/a>, Houston Texans, New York Jets, Tennessee Titans<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 8: <\/strong>None<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 9: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/ranking-denver-broncos-quarterbacks-franchise-history\/\">Denver Broncos<\/a>, Detroit Lions, Jacksonville Jaguars, San Francisco 49ers<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 10: <\/strong>Kansas City Chiefs, Los Angeles Rams, Miami Dolphins, Philadelphia Eagles<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 11: <\/strong>Atlanta Falcons, Indianapolis Colts, New England Patriots, New Orleans Saints<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 12: <\/strong>None<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 13: <\/strong>Baltimore Ravens, Buffalo Bills, <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/ranking-chicago-bears-quarterbacks-franchise-history\/\">Chicago Bears<\/a>, Las Vegas Raiders, Minnesota Vikings, New York Giants<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 14: <\/strong>Arizona Cardinals, Washington Commanders<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-when-does-your-fantasy-quarterback-sit-out-during-the-2023-24-nfl-bye-weeks\">When does your fantasy quarterback sit out during the 2023-24 NFL bye weeks?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since a fantasy football team does not accumulate points for players on a bye week, owners will have to find replacement players. This is especially difficult if you have a roster lacking depth. Having a quarterback on a bye week can wreak havoc on your overall strategy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, for bye week 10, Philadelphia Eagles QB <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/jalen-hurts-fire-continues-burn-signing-historic-255-million-contract-money-is-nice-championships-are-better\/\">Jalen Hurts<\/a> and Kansas City Chiefs QB <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/patrick-mahomes-owes-5-teammates-huge-favor-helping-inch-closer-tom-brady\/\">Patrick Mahomes<\/a> are on a bye week. Since these top-rated QBs won't be in the game, many fantasy teams will come up short without their No. 1 draft picks playing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are all the <a href=\"https:\/\/sports7.us\/joe-montana-wouldnt-rank-as-high-as-you-might-think-among-todays-nfl-quarterbacks\/\">QBs<\/a> sitting out due to bye weeks for the 2023 NFL season:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Week 5: <\/strong>Justin Herbert, Deshaun Watson, Geno Smith, Baker Mayfield, Kyle Trask, Drew Lock, Dorian Thompson-Robinson, PJ Walker, Easton Stick<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 6:<\/strong> Jordan Love, Kenny Pickett, Mitch Trubisky, Sean Clifford<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Week 7:<\/strong> Joe Burrow, Dak Prescott, Ryan Tannehill, C.J.
