Saints Defense A Solid Option In Week 6

The New Orleans Saints will take on the Cincinnati Bengals at home in Week 6. The Bengals have struggled to protect Joe Burrow in 2022, ranking fourth in the league with 19 sacks allowed.

Wil Lutz A Solid Fantasy Kicker In Week 6

Is Baker Mayfield Healthy Or Injured? Should I Pickup P.J. Walker for Fantasy Football?

The Carolina Panthers have struggled out of the gate in 2022. A 1-4 start led to the firing of Matt Rhule on Monday, making him the first head coach to be canned this season.

Mark Ingram II A Low-End Flex In Week 6

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram II turned nine touches into just 16 yards in a 39-32 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 5.

Alvin Kamara An RB1 In Week 6

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara rolled up 194 all-purpose yards in a win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 5. After handling 29 touches in that game last week, Kamara appears to be over the rib injury that has cost him two games thus far in 2022. He will look to post another […]

Damian Lillard To Rest On Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (rest) won't suit up for Tuesday's preseason game against the Golden State Warriors. Fantasy managers don't have to worry as it doesn't sound like this is injury related. It sounds like the Blazers are just being cautious with their star guard in a meaningless game.
