Chase Edmonds Active For Week 6

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (shoulder) will play Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. This is the same injury he was dealing with last week, when he had three catches and six carries. James Conner will likely see more usage than Edmonds again, making Edmonds a flex play at best based on his limited expected […]

Ezekiel Elliott Will Play In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (ribs) is active for Sunday's meeting with New England. While Tony Pollard could see a little extra work to keep Elliott fresh, fantasy managers have to deploy Elliott as an RB1 this week, though they might want to look for a different option in DFS contests, just in case. […]

Kareem Hunt Active For Week 6

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt (knee, wrist) is active for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals, though he'll be playing without both of the team's starting tackles. With Nick Chubb (calf) out, Hunt should see plenty of early down work, but his injury status means that D'Ernest Johnson and Demetric Felton should mix in […]

Latavius Murray Questionable To Return Against Chargers

Baltimore Ravens running back Latavius Murray (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers. He had nine carries for 44 yards and a touchdown on a day where Ravens running backs Devonta Freeman and Le'Veon Bell also have rushing scores. With a big lead, don't be surprised to not see […]

Jody Fortson Carted Off With Achilles Injury

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Jody Fortson was carted off the field during Sunday's game against the Washington Football Team and has been ruled out with an Achilles injury. Fortson being downgraded to out that quickly seems like a bad sign for his ability to get back on the field this season — a torn […]

Peyton Barber A Healthy Scratch

Las Vegas Raiders running back Peyton Barber is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Broncos. The veteran back had 23 carries for 111 yards and a touchdown in Week 3, but he has just one touch since. With Josh Jacobs and Kenyan Drake healthy, Barber is nothing more than an emergency option for […]

Damien Harris Active For Week 6

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (ribs) is active for Sunday's meeting with the Cowboys, while running back J.J. Taylor is a healthy scratch. Not activating Taylor suggests that the team feels good about Harris handling his usual workload, but with Brandon Bolden seeing the passing-game usage and Rhamondre Stevenson getting mixed in as […]

Melvin Gordon III Active For Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (hip) is active for the team's Week 6 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders. Gordon has been playing through injury, which has allowed rookie Javonte Williams to absorb a lot of Gordon's touches over the past couple of games. Gordon had 18 carries in Week 3, but had […]

C.J. Board Carted Off The Field In Week 6

New York Giants wide receiver C.J. Board was carted off the field during Sunday's game against the Rams with an air cast on his left arm/wrist. It's safe to assume that Board, who didn't have a reception on Sunday, won't return, leaving an already-injured Giants receiving unit even weaker. Expect to see Dante Pettis and […]

Jake Funk Ruled Out

Los Angeles Rams running back Jake Funk (hamstring) has been ruled out of the rest of the team's Week 6 game against the New York Giants. Funk didn't record an offensive stat in the game, making it the third week in a row that Funk hasn't had a carry. His only offensive touch of the […]

Browns Without Both Offensive Tackles In Week 6

The Cleveland Browns will be down both offensive tackles in Week 6 against the Cardinals, as Jedrick Wills (ankle) and Jack Conklin (knee) won't play. They join running back Nick Chubb (calf) as players out for this Browns offense. Not having both tackles will make it tough for running back Kareem Hunt to find open […]

Parris Campbell Ruled Out In Week 6

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell (foot) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Texans. Campbell had one catch in Sunday's game — a 51-yard touchdown strike from quarterback Carson Wentz. The Colts just got T.Y. Hilton back from a neck injury, so the team is in a better position […]

Parris Campbell Questionable To Return

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Texans. Campbell has one catch in Sunday's game — a 51-yard touchdown strike from quarterback Carson Wentz. If he's unable to return, expect to see more reliance on T.Y. Hilton and Michael Pittman Jr. over the remainder of Sunday's […]

Kadarius Toney Out For Rest Of Week 6

New York Giants wide receiver Kadarius Toney (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of the team's Week 6 contest against the Rams. Toney was banged up heading into this one, so seeing Toney tweak his ankle and the team keeping him out isn't a huge surprise. He did have three catches for 36 […]

Ty'Son Williams Inactive Again

Baltimore Ravens running back Ty'Son Williams is a healthy scratch for Sunday's game against the Chargers, the second time in three weeks that he's been inactive. After having six touches last week and producing just 21 yards, it appears Williams — a popular waiver add after Week 1 — is out of the rotation in […]

Danny Amendola Out For Week 6

Houston Texans wide receiver Danny Amendola (thigh) is out again this week, missing his fourth game in a row. He practiced during the week, but it looks like Houston isn't ready to play the veteran yet. Brandin Cooks and Chris Moore should be the lead receivers this week, with rookie Nico Collins and veteran Chris […]

Larry Rountree III A Healthy Scratch In Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers rookie running back Larry Rountree III is a healthy scratch for the team's Week 6 game against Baltimore. The sixth-round pick had 11 carries in Week 4 but only played on special teams last week against Cleveland, taking zero offensive snaps for the first time this season. Rountree is clearly out of […]

Mike Williams Officially Active For Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (knee) is active for the Week 6 contest against the Ravens despite missing practice all week with swelling in his knee. Williams has been great this season, with six touchdown receptions, but it's fair to wonder what his workload will look like this week. Managers in season-long leagues […]

T.Y. Hilton Active For Week 6

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (neck) is officially active for Sunday's meeting with the Texans. Things were trending this way after he was activated from the Injured Reserve on Saturday, but now it's official that Hilton will make his 2021 debut. Expect his snaps to be limited, so don't throw him into your lineups […]

Tyreek Hill Active, Lucas Niang Won't Start

Despite not coming out for warmups, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quad) is active and will play against Washington on Sunday. The Football Team has allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, so fantasy managers in season-long formats should roll Hill out this week, injury and all. He's the most explosive […]

Joe Mixon Active For Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions. That ankle injury limited Mixon last week, as he played just 28 percent of the team's snaps and had 33 rushing yards, a season-low. Mixon should see more work this week against Detroit, but he's still likely not […]

Wide Receiver Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 6

Another week of NFL action is behind us. The waiver wire hasn't been kind to us this season – will that change this week? Below, you'll find some wideouts that you should be targeting on the waiver wire ahead of Week 6. Not all options are the same. Some players may be better in PPR […]

Tim Patrick (WR, DEN) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (PPR) ROSTERED IN: 39% of Leagues ANALYSIS: With Jerry Jeudy and K.J. Hamler on the IR, Patrick is locked in as the No. 2 receiver in Denver. He won't hold that role forever, but he's a solid flex option until Jeudy returns. The undrafted receiver out of Utah has hauled in 22-of-28 […]

Jamison Crowder (WR, NYJ) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues (PPR) ROSTERED IN: 39% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Did you wake up early to watch the Jets and the Falcons play in London? I did, for some reason. Crowder's game wasn't impressive, as he caught just four passes for 24 yards, but his six targets were second on the […]

Jon Gruden Resigns As Raiders Coach

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden has informed his staff that he will be resigning as the team's head coach. Gruden signed a 10-year contract with the team in 2018, but his tenure is being cut short after it was revealed over the past few days that Gruden had sent emails that made racist, […]

Quintez Cephus Ruled Out In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Quintez Cephus (shoulder) won't return to Sunday's game against the Vikings. Cephus ends the day with three catches for 38 yards. If Cephus misses any time, Amon-Ra St. Brown would likely see a larger role in this offense moving forward, but there's not a lot of upside in fantasy with any […]

Damien Harris Questionable To Return in Week 5

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris (chest) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Houston Texans. Harris has 10 carries for 27 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's game. If Harris is unable to return, Rhamondre Stevenson appears to be the next man up. A preseason sleeper whose rookie year was derailed […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Won't Return Against Broncos

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (shoulder) will not to return to Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. He was held without a catch, but did add two carries for six yards. With James Washington out as well, the Steelers will turn to Chase Claypool and Diontae Johnson for the remainder of the game, with […]
