Jahmyr Gibbs Still Not Practicing

Detroit Lions rookie running back Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) is not practicing for the second consecutive day ahead of the team's Week 6 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Gibbs strained a hamstring in practice last week and missed the Lions' Week 5 victory over the Carolina Panthers as a result. The rookie has not been […]

Justin Herbert Set For Another Big Game In Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (finger) is set for another strong performance in a Week 6 game against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. Herbert has been a fantasy QB1 in every game this season, finishing as the QB6, QB11, QB1, and QB5 so far. The Cowboys pass defense hasn't been anything special […]

Tyjae Spears A Deep-League Flex Option

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears scored his first career touchdown in the Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. He finished Week 5 as the RB9 in PPR leagues and played more than 50% of the team's offensive snaps for the fourth time in five games and the third time in a row. His […]

Brandon Tanev Unavailable Thursday

Seattle Kraken left wing Brandon Tanev (upper body) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup versus Nashville. The 31-year-old was injured on a high hit from Vegas forward Brett Howden Tuesday and needs more time to recover. Last season, Tanev managed to play in all 82 regular-season games, scoring a career-high 35 points (16 goals, […]

Joshua Palmer Should Be Solid In Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Joshua Palmer should be a solid depth option in a Week 6 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football. Palmer has moved into a larger role since Mike Williams (knee) was lost for the season, and he's been a fantasy WR3 for two weeks in a row, combining […]

DeAndre Hopkins Has Low Ceiling, Low Floor In Week 6

Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught eight passes on 11 targets for 140 yards in the Week 5 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. It was his best showing in his Titans' career, and it revitalized his fantasy outlook moving forward. However, the Colts have been torched by wide receivers all season, so it's important […]

Greg Dulcich Expected To Be Activated From Injured Reserve

The Denver Broncos are expected to activate tight end Greg Dulcich (hamstring) from Injured Reserve ahead of the team's Thursday night game against the Kansas City Chiefs. Dulcich is currently listed as questionable on the team's injury report. The Broncos designated Dulcich for return on Tuesday, allowing him to participate in the team's practice that […]

Keenan Allen A Strong Choice Like Usual In Week 6

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen is a strong fantasy choice as always in Week 6 lineups. The Chargers will take on the Dallas Cowboys on Monday Night Football this week. Allen has two overall fantasy WR1 finishes already this season, and is averaging over 21 fantasy points per week. The Cowboys defense hasn't […]

Week 6 Half-PPR Tight End Rankings for Fantasy Football: Logan Thomas, Dalton Schultz, Cole Kmet, Tyler Conklin, more

Hey, RotoBallers! Week 6 kicks off on Thursday, so it's time for more fantasy football rankings. Fantasy managers will have to wait until Thursday to see if they will have superstar tight end Travis Kelce (ankle) will suit up for Week 6. The Steelers and Packers are on the bye this week. Selecting the correct […]

Brett Howden Starts Two-Game Suspension On Thursday

Vegas Golden Knights forward Brett Howden will serve the first game of a two-game suspension on Thursday. The 25-year-old received the suspension for an illegal check to the head of Seattle forward Brandon Tanev in Tuesday's 4-1 win. In addition to missing Thursday's matchup versus San Jose, Howden also has to sit out Saturday's clash […]

Derrick Henry Could Flop Again In Week 6

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has averaged just 3.8 yards per carry this season, posting 328 yards on 86 attempts. He has also scored just one rushing touchdown through five weeks. Needless to say, he's looked like a shell of his former self, meaning a matchup with a Baltimore Ravens in Week 6 is […]

Chargers Defense Looks To Stay Hot After Their Bye Week

The Los Angeles Chargers defense had by far their best game of the season in Week 4 before going on their bye week and will hope to keep things going in Week 6 against the Dallas Cowboys. The Chargers combined for 13 fantasy points on defense in Weeks 1 through 3, then put up 14 […]

Ryan Tannehill An Easy Fade In Week 6

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill has just 1,052 passing yards, three total touchdowns, and five interceptions through five games of the 2023 campaign. He finally got on the same page with DeAndre Hopkins in Week 5, but he remains off the fantasy radar in Week 6. The Titans will travel to London to face the […]

Rasmus Ristolainen Not Ready For Thursday

Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Rasmus Ristolainen (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup for Thursday's season opener versus Columbus. Ristolainen has been practicing with the team, and there was hope that he could be ready for the clash, but the Flyers are forced to open the season without him. Philadelphia heads out next against the Senators on […]

Cowboys Defense Looks To Break Mercurial Streak In Week 6

The Dallas Cowboys defense has had an up-and-down last few weeks after an excellent start to the season and will look to get back on top in a Week 6 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Cowboys have three top-three finishes and two bottom-six finishes as a fantasy defense this season. Coming off a […]

Jameson Williams A Desperation Flex Option

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams returned from his four-game suspension in Week 5, catching two passes on three targets for just two yards. He registered a 47% snap share but only an 11% target share. It was more of the same for the 2022 first-round pick, so he should not be trusted in fantasy […]

Roope Hintz Ruled Out Thursday

Dallas Stars center Roope Hintz (upper body) won't be in the lineup Thursday as the team opens its 2023-24 campaign with a home game against St. Louis. Hintz has battled an upper-body injury lately and appears to be nearing full health, but Thursday's contest comes too soon for him. Following Thursday, the Stars will be […]

Brandon Aubrey A Solid Week 6 Option

Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey is a solid option in Week 6 fantasy lineups. Aubrey has been good this season, ranking as the overall K3 in fantasy and having all top-12 weeks until Week 5. In what should be a high-scoring game against a scuffling Los Angeles Chargers defense, Aubrey is a top-five option in […]

Taylor Hall Considered Week-To-Week

Chicago Blackhawks left wing Taylor Hall (upper body) is considered week-to-week. The former MVP was knocked out from Wednesday's contest versus Boston with an upper-body injury, and he's now in danger of missing multiple games. The Blackhawks return to the ice Saturday versus Montreal. Hall picked up his first point via an assist for his […]

Jake Ferguson Has A Tough Matchup In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson has a tough matchup in a Week 6 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. While the Chargers defense has been exceptionally generous to opposing running backs (25th) and wide receivers (32nd), the only thing they've done well is limit tight ends (3rd). The Cowboys will likely focus their passing […]

Josh Reynolds Could Maintain Value In Week 6

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds has hauled in 16 passes for 291 yards and three touchdowns through his first five games of the 2023 season. He's off to a hot start and could continue to have value when Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) returns to action. St. Brown is trending toward playing against the Buccaneers […]

David Montgomery Remains Must-Start Versus Buccaneers

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery has rushed 88 times for 371 yards and six touchdowns in just four games. He's averaging 4.2 yards per carry after a big Week 5 performance, and he's been one of the breakout stars of the fantasy football season early on. Montgomery is a true workhorse back in a […]

CeeDee Lamb Due For A Good Game In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb has been alternating solid and disappointing weeks so far this season. His positional rankings so far have been: WR32, WR10, WR43, WR19, WR44. Based on that pattern, he should be a strong option in Week 6, and the matchup helps make sure of that. The Chargers defense is ranked […]

Jared Goff Has Plenty Of Upside Despite Tough Matchup

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff has thrown for 1,265 yards, nine touchdowns, and three interceptions through five games. He's also scored twice on the ground. Even with Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) out last week, he scored four total touchdowns. That said, the veteran signal-caller is not a player to automatically bench when facing tough matchups. […]

Tony Pollard Looks To Break A Slump In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard will look to break out of his early season slump in a Week 6 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Pollard was a top-15 fantasy running back in each of his first three games season, but has finished as the RB27 and RB31 over the past two weeks. A […]

Dak Prescott Looking For A Good Game In Week 6

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott is still looking for his first QB1 performance as he heads into a Week 6 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. Prescott is the overall fantasy QB21 right now and hasn't finished better than QB17 in any game this season. The Chargers defense hasn't been much of a threat this […]
