Yahoo Fantasy Football waivers process daily, typically between 3 a.m. and 5 a.m. Eastern Time (ET). Waiver claims that are submitted before the processing time will be handled then; players either clear waivers if no one claims them or become free agents for first-come, first-serve pickup afterward. The waiver period usually ends around midnight Pacific Time (PT), but processing can sometimes be delayed by hours due to claim volume. Key points on Yahoo waivers:
- All un-rostered players are placed on waivers at scheduled times, depending on the league's waiver settings (e.g., Sunday 10 a.m. PT for weekly waivers).
- Waiver claims are processed daily early in the morning (3-5 a.m. ET), after which unclaimed players become free agents.
- Waivers can sometimes take longer to process than the expected time.
- After a claim is awarded, the claiming team moves to the last waiver priority, and others move up.
- Players with no more games that week are placed on waivers Monday at 5:30 p.m. PT in some leagues.
In summary, waivers on Yahoo generally process early Wednesday morning between 3-5 a.m. ET, with some variation depending on the league's settings and claim volume.
