Buccaneers Defense Not A Great Option Against Packers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense faces their toughest test yet in Week 6. They'll go up against a red-hot Aaron Rodgers and the league's highest-scoring offense, the Green Bay Packers. Fantasy managers who play in leagues that penalize defenses for points scored will want to avoid Tampa Bay this week. Green Bay has also had […]

Ryan Succop Faces Tough Matchup

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop faces a tough matchup in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. Succop took advantage of a favorable matchup against the Bears last week, making all four field-goals and an extra-point. It won't be so easy this week, as the Packers have allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game […]

Cameron Brate A Low-End TE2

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate gets a tough Week 6 date with the Packers. Green Bay has allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends and has yet to allow a touchdown to the position. Brate was out-snapped by fellow tight end Rob Gronkowski, who has held him off in terms of […]

Rob Gronkowski A Touchdown-Dependent Option

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski will face off with the Packers in Week 6. Green Bay has been a tricky matchup for opposing tight ends, as they've allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game to the position. Gronkowski saw the same amount of targets as fellow tight end Cameron Brate in Week 5, […]

Noah Fant Receives Questionable Tag

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant (ankle) was a limited practice participant all week and is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Patriots. Head coach Vic Fangio said earlier in the week that Fant has a 50-50 shot to play on Sunday. Check back on Sunday morning, as Fant is shaping up to […]

K.J. Hamler Ruled Out For Week 6

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver K.J. Hamler (hamstring) did not practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Patriots. Hamler wouldn't have played last week either and hasn't practiced since suffering the injury in the Week 4 win against the Jets. The 21-year-old rookie has the potential to be an […]

Phillip Lindsay Could Be Lead Back In Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Phillip Lindsay (toe) practiced in full all week and will make his return in Week 6 against the Patriots after getting injured in the season-opener. Lindsay said he is 100 percent healthy, and he could be the lead back on Sunday with Melvin Gordon III battling an illness and also in […]

Melvin Gordon III Questionable For Week 6

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (illness) is listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Patriots. Gordon didn't practice on Friday due to a non-COVID-19-related illness, but there's also his DUI hanging over his head going into this weekend's game. Even if he plays on Sunday, he'll be facing a two- or three-game […]

Leave Leonard Extremely Risky In Week 6

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (ankle) will be a game-time decision for his team's Week 6 contest against the Packers. Fournette was active last week despite not being able to practice, so one would expect him to suit up this week after being limited in practice for three straight sessions. Even if he […]

Brett Rypien Should Be Avoided If He Makes Another Start

There remains a chance that Denver Broncos quarterback Brett Rypien receives another start in Week 6 against the Patriots with Drew Lock (shoulder) questionable for Sunday's contest. It's looking more like Lock will make his return since suffering a right shoulder injury in Week 2, though. Rypien was up-and-down in the Week 4 win over […]

Drew Lock Questionable Against Patriots

Denver Broncos quarterback Drew Lock (shoulder) practiced in full all week but is still listed as questionable for Week 6 against the Patriots. We'd say Lock is on the right side of questionable after getting in full practices this week. The second-year QB has been out since he was injured in Week 2, but it's […]

Ronald Jones II A Solid RB2 In Week 6

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II gets a favorable matchup against the Packers in Week 6. Green Bay has allowed the second-most fantasy points to opposing backs, though their rating is a bit deceptive. The Packers have actually allowed the ninth-fewest rushing yards compared to the sixth-most receiving yards per game to opposing […]

Jimmy Garoppolo Good To Go For Sunday

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo (ankle) is off the final injury report and is good to go for Week 6 against the division-rival Rams. Garoppolo missed several games with a high ankle sprain and aggravated the ankle in the Week 5 disappointing loss to the Dolphins, but he said his ankle feels great and […]

Tom Brady Has Upside Against Packers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady will face the Packers and their high-octane offense in Week 6. Green Bay comes into the contest scoring a league-high 38 points per game while allowing 25.3 per game. In short, they've found themselves in a lot of shootouts, which bodes well for Tom Brady, who is coming off […]

A.J. Minter To Start For Braves In Game 5

Former Atlanta Braves left-handed closer A.J. Minter will make his first career start in Game 5 of the National League Championship Series against the Dodgers on Friday as the Braves look to close out the series and advance to the World Series for the first time since 1999. It will be a bullpen game for […]

Mike Evans, Chris Godwin Will Play Versus Packers

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receivers Mike Evans (ankle) and Chris Godwin (hamstring) were taken off the final injury report and will play in Week 6 against the Packers. Evans hasn't been 100 percent for most of the year, but he hasn't missed a game and has scored in each of his five games. However, aside […]

Davante Adams Will Return Against Buccaneers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) was taken off the final injury report and will play in Week 6 against the Buccaneers. The Packers played it safe with their top wideout, holding him out since Week 2 due to a hamstring strain. Green Bay and quarterback Aaron Rodgers barely missed a beat without […]

Diontae Johnson, David DeCastro Ruled Out

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson (back) and veteran right guard David DeCastro (abdomen) have both been ruled out for Week 6 against the Browns. Rookie Chase Claypool, who broke out with four touchdowns last weekend, should once again have an increased role in the passing game with Johnson out. Rookie Kevin Dotson will start […]

Patriots Placing James Ferentz On COVID-19 List

The New England Patriots are placing center James Ferentz on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday, according to a source. The Patriots are still on schedule to face the Broncos in Week 6 on Sunday, but if the game winds up being played, quarterback Cam Newton will be taking snaps from someone else. It's something to […]

Mo Alie-Cox Ruled Out Against Bengals

Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox (knee) has been ruled out for Week 6 against the Bengals. Alie-Cox has been a surprise fantasy contributor early in the season, going for 11 catches, 194 yards and two touchdowns in five games, but he's become more of a non-factor in Indy's offense now that Trey Burton is […]

Alshon Jeffery, DeSean Jackson Ruled Out

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (foot) and DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and offensive tackle Lane Johnson (ankle) have been ruled out for Week 6 against the Ravens. Jeffery has yet to play in 2020, but he's been limited in practices the last couple weeks and could make his debut in Week 7. Jackson will miss […]

Julio Jones Set To Return In Week 6

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) isn't on the final injury report for the Week 6 game against the Vikings, meaning he's likely to return to the field on Sunday after a one-game absence. The 31-year-old has aggravated the same hamstring injury multiple times this year, though, so hopefully it doesn't become a problem […]

Tyler Larsen Placed On COVID-19 List

The Carolina Panthers placed offensive lineman Tyler Larsen on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday and also sent defensive end Yetur Gross-Matos (ankle) to Injured Reserve with a high ankle sprain. Despite the positive test from Larsen, the team's home game in Week 6 against the Bears remains on schedule. Gross-Matos suffered his injury in the […]

Dawson Knox Could Sit Out Versus Chiefs

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox (calf) was unable to suit up for practice on Thursday. He hauled in one reception for 15 yards before exiting Tuesday's game against the Tennessee Titans due to injury. Knox hasn't been a big part of the offense even when he is healthy. Tyler Kroft would be a touchdown-dependent […]

Christian McCaffrey Likely Out Until Week 8

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey (ankle) will likely be out until Week 8. ESPN's David Newton reports that the All-Pro running back wasn't activated off of injured reserve this week and that he's unlikely to play in Week 7 against the New Orleans Saints. Week 6 will be McCaffrey's fourth game missed- this would […]

Gabriel Davis Likely To See Decreased Workload

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabriel Davis saw a season-high nine targets in the Week 5 loss to the Tennessee Titans. The Bills looked towards Davis often in this one with John Brown (knee) sidelined. He produced five receptions for 58 yards in this one. A decent game for the rookie, but he'll likely be less […]

Cole Beasley Should Do Damage In Week 6

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley has been one of the most consistent weapons for this offense early in the season. Last week, Beasley hauled in all six of his targets for 53 yards in the loss to the Tennessee Titans. He continues to put up solid numbers each week and put himself in the […]

John Brown Likely To Play Versus Chiefs

Buffalo Bills wide receiver John Brown (knee) was able to fully practice on Thursday. That means that Brown should be able to suit up for the Week 6 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday night. He has unable to play last week, but it appears to be only a one-game absence for Brown. […]
