Rashod Bateman Cleared For Week 6

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman (groin) will suit up for Sunday's matchup with the Commanders. The 24-year-old didn't practice on Wednesday and was limited in Thursday's session. Fortunately, he was back on Friday, clearing him for Week 6. Washington has struggled against opposing wideouts in 2024-25. Still, Bateman's fantasy success is contingent mainly on […]

Christian Kirk Downgraded To Flex Against Tough Bears Secondary

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Christian Kirk is still a decent starting option in a Week 6 trip to London, but is a bit risky of a play against a tough Chicago Bears secondary.

Antonio Gibson Slated To Start In Week 6

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson will start against the Houston Texans in Week 6 with Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) already ruled out.

Drake Maye Not Yet Trustworthy In Fantasy Football

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye, who was the No. 3 overall pick in 2024 and is slated to make his first career start in Week 6 against the Houston Texans, has undeniable upside but is not yet a worthwhile option in most fantasy football leagues. Maye takes over the reins of the Patriots after […]

Brian Thomas Jr. A Must-Start Despite Tough Matchup

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. is too talented to bench despite a tough Week 6 matchup with the Chicago Bears in London.

Justin Herbert Cleared For Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (ankle) no longer carries an injury designation heading into the AFC West clash with the Broncos. The signal-caller was limited at practice on Wednesday and Thursday because of an ankle injury. However, he's made progress and logged a full session on Friday, clearing the way for his availability. Herbert […]

Kyle Pitts A Volatile TE1 In Week 6

Atlanta Falcons tight end Kyle Pitts is coming off a season-best output of seven catches for 88 yards versus Tampa Bay in Week 5, but the third-year player put up a goose egg the week before without recording a single catch, so he's a bit hard to trust.

Tank Bigsby An Intriguing Option Against Bears

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby has decent upside in Week 6 against the Chicago Bears in London.

He faces the Bears strong defense, but they are better against […]

Steelers D/ST Primed To Bounce Back Against Raiders

The Pittsburgh Steelers came up short defensively in Week 5 but are in a great spot to bounce back against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6.

Keenan Allen - Week 6 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 16+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4 ANALYSIS: It has been a rough start to the fantasy season for Chicago Bears wide receiver Keenan Allen. He has yet to total more than 6.9 PPR fantasy points in a game this season and has finished outside the top 55 at the position in […]

Drake London To Keep Rolling Versus Vulnerable Carolina Defense

After a dud opening week (2-15-0), Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London had exactly six catches in three straight games and averaged 62 yards per game over the three games leading up to last week's explosion versus Tampa Bay for 12-154-1.

Chris Boswell Worth Starting In Week 6

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell was not very involved in last week's loss to the Cowboys but could be in line for more opportunities against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6.

BALLER MOVE: Sit POSITIONAL VALUE: WR4/WR5 ANALYSIS: Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker is very fast. He is a versatile weapon in both the passing and running game.

The Ravens Defense Is A Risky Play Against Commanders In Week 6

The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams hasn't been the same one the league has grown accustomed to over the last decade or two. They've allowed quarterbacks to gash them more often than not, and second-half leads are never safe. Joe Burrow and Dak Prescott have thrown for over 350 yards against them while Gardner Minshew II […]

Chase McLaughlin - Week 6 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start POSITIONAL VALUE: K1 ANALYSIS: It's difficult to predict kicker scoring in the NFL, but Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Chase McLaughlin has two very big things going for him -- he's on a good offense and he's accurate.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown (shoulder) hasn't had a great start to the season. In fact, he hasn't had a start to the season at all because he hasn't played in a game due to an injury he suffered in the preseason. He has a history of missing time due to injury, which […]

Justin Tucker Looks To Build Momentum Against Commanders

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker bounced back in a big way in Week 5 after a worrisome stretch through the first four games of the season. The veteran finished as the K6 after making all five of his extra points, a 56-yard field goal, and a 24-yard field goal to win the game for the […]

Is Rhamondre Stevenson Injured or Playing In Week 6? Should I Start Antonio Gibson For Fantasy Football?

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (foot) has had a roller coaster of a season in 2024. After starting out hot, scoring 20.6 and 16.0 PPR fantasy points in his first two games, he managed -0.7 in Week 3 and fumbled for his fourth time in Week 4. This led to his benching in […]

Ja'Marr Chase Looks To Stay Hot In Week 6

Justice Hill A Low-End Flex Play In Week 6

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill returned to his usual fantasy output in Week 5 after a brief pop in Week 4. This is a good indication of what his season will look like as he's bound to have some big games here and there in PPR formats, but he's too inconsistent to start every […]

Mark Andrews A Desperate Play In Week 6

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews finally broke his streak of goose eggs in Week 5 when he caught four of five targets for 55 yards against the Cincinnati Bengals. So far, he's only had one week with a finish inside of TE1 territory, and that took a terrible week from tight ends across the […]

Joe Burrow Desperate For A Win On Sunday Night

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has been one of the best in the league at his position this season. He was quiet in the opener against the New England Patriots. Since then, the signal-caller has thrown at least two touchdowns in each of his last four games. Burrow had his best showing of the 2024-25 […]
